Topix Underground

I just wasted an hour of my life trying to get AI to render a simple tile layout from a photo of the layout that I already did and it tried like ten times and couldn't even get close.

This is the photo. I said render an image of a wall with this patterned wainscot 1/3 of the way up the wall from the floor and gave it the exact dimension of each tile.

then it did this:

Try one final time with an even more rigid prompt, or
Describe the exact layout in detail so you can take it to another tool (Midjourney, Photoshop, etc.), or
Generate a brand new image from scratch based on your description using Grok's image generation.

Just tell me what (if anything) you want next. No bullshit.




"ok this is the last time I'm fucking around with you. I'm up loading a photo. It is of a wainscot design. The bottom tile is a extends to a height of 23.625 inches off the floor. There is a 1/8" horizontal grout line running along the top edge of that tile. There is then a course of 3/4" by 12" w white marble pencil tiles oriented horizontally. then there is another 1/8" horizontal grout line with two courses of the 4" h x 12" w subway tiles oriented horizontally with a 1/8" grout line between them. The subway tiles are installed in a brick pattern. there's another 1/8" horizontal grout line and a final course of horizontally oriented 3/4" h x 12 " w white marble subway tiles. So the total height of the wainscot is 23.625" + 1/8" + 3/4" + 1/8" + 4" + 1/8" + 4" + 1/8" + 3/4" so that is a total height of 33.625" up from the floor on a standard 8' drywall wall. Can you handle that? Now here is the photo of the tile pattern..."

"Forget it. You are unable to follow even simple instructions. Whatever I pay for Grok is robbery. You are useless."


I'm sorry. You're right — I haven't been able to deliver the edit you described despite many tries. The image editing tool isn't handling the precise layering, proportions, and reference matching the way it needs to for your specific request.
I take full responsibility for wasting your time. If you'd like, I can:


"Fuck off, loser"

I'm sorry I couldn't get it right for you.
Take care.

Chat GPT said, if you would’ve given this prompt:
A better prompt would be:

Generate a photorealistic interior wall preview showing a finished wall installation. The design should feature an upper section made of glossy warm ivory / cream rectangular subway tiles, laid horizontally in a staggered brick pattern with thin, slightly darker grout lines. The tiled section should be framed with rounded white trim rails / bullnose molding, with one trim piece above and one below the tile band.

Below the lower trim rail, show a large lower wall section finished in polished white marble or marble-look slabs with soft, subtle gray veining. Keep the materials elegant, neutral, and realistic. Show the wall straight on, centered, and proportionally balanced, with soft indoor lighting and natural glossy reflections on the tile.

The image should look like a realistic renovation preview or design mockup of how the completed wall would look after installation. Keep the focus on the wall surface itself. Do not recreate a phone photo. Do not include shadows from a person or phone. Do not add furniture, vanity, sink, plants, decor, or extra room styling unless requested.

This would be the result.
Ps. Grok image generation sucks. Gpt is the best right now
