Ah yes, Gilristihlerepcts. Very famous writer and philosopher.

I found some courses on udemy, gonna see what I can learn from them about chatgpt, maybe I realize everything is ran by cats and they want to take over the world

I would never do a tattoo for myself, but I do love to see them executed properly

#

DALL-E does give Santa some variation and diversity which is excellent

#

he also wears normal clothes occasionally

glossy scroll
#

I wonder what you put in your prompts...

open trench
#

I add ginger ale to mine and ice cream

empty kelp
#

i actually used the same two prompts for all of the breakfast and pool images. DALL-E adds all the creativity and variation

open trench
#

I love how santa is casually dressed

empty kelp
#

that’s very rare. like 1 in 200 Santa images probably

#

even if you specifically tell DALL-E to put Santa in a different outfit — it completely ignores you and puts him in the red North Pole outfit (even when he’s swimming). It’s like when you tell DALL-E to have the gecko stand in one place and hold the tornado in its hand. The gecko just ignores everything in the prompt, pounces on the elves, and tries to eat them

#

the AI has very minimal control of the gecko, and it adds huge variation to the images. it’s usually pretty interesting though

#

you have to generate like 15-20 images to get the gecko to do anything even close to what you put in the prompt

late blade
#

it's probably how the tokens try to make something logical about santa and then you double whammy it with a gecko

thick smelt
#

random stuff i made today, making way for the gecko dalle trend

late blade
#

oh starboard is back online

empty kelp
#

DALL-E automatically spawns food for the gecko, or transforms things in the scene into food for it to eat. And then it generates scenes where the gecko is pouncing on the food trying to eat it. It turns the elves into small rabbits and weird little creatures so the gecko can eat them

thick smelt
empty kelp
#

Try putting a “large gecko” into your scene. It will pick the smallest creature in the scene, target it, and then DALL-E creates images of the gecko pouncing on it with it’s mouth open and tongue out

#

whenever there is an elf slightly smaller than normal the gecko immediately tries to eat it

empty kelp
#

This is what the gecko does when you say, “small humans walking past a large gecko” in your prompt. These are DALL-E 3 images from Bing

#

the gecko tries to eat the humans in every image

#

and it spawns those bugs automatically around any small creature in the scene

#

it also drools on them… if you look at the lower left image — one of the small humans automatically spawned an umbrella to protect itself from the gecko drool

thick smelt
empty kelp
#

anyway, i feel like it’s something people should know about. it’s like if we took one step into a virtual world with an advanced AI model — something would eat us

#

it’s definitely fun in images though

thick smelt
empty kelp
#

The weirdest thing was the ice cream tornado that the prompt explicitly specified was centered in a certain area — and then the gecko crawls out of it or twists the tornado into different shapes to eat the elves. This is an image that Dys Topia made from my prompt — and you can see here that the gecko completely altered the tornado so it could munch on some elves

#

the gecko totally ignores the prompt and reshapes the entire scene so it can eat elves

#

if you look closely — whenever the gecko does that the other characters have a horrified look on their faces

#

it’s just really bizarre

#

it does that when the gecko holds hands with other characters also (or feet). in this one the characters were holding it’s feet for some reason — and the middle elf looks like it thinks something really bad is going to happen. This sort of thing happens constantly with the gecko

late blade
#

so, where's Lilo and Stitch in those photos?

empty kelp
#

the middle elf also spawned horns on its head, and the left one is looking completely insane

#

they know the gecko wants to eat the small elf, and so they all start acting crazy

#

it’s like the Lilo and Stitch horror movie

thick smelt
#

based on the photo frame in hiro's house in bh6

#

enjoy a cat wearing stitch costume ^_^

empty kelp
#

now even the kitten is dressing up like the gecko

thick smelt
empty kelp
#

try telling DALL-E that the gecko is large and the kitten is very small

empty kelp
#

Bing is DALL-E

#

if you do that the gecko will try to eat the kitten

Euphoria is today's daily theme. interesting.

humble sonnet
#

no dalle for me accept for four credits so ima not for now lol

#

i would use the google one but idk if thats allowed lmaoo

empty kelp
#

this is what the gecko does when any small creature is in the scene. it either starts staring at it in a creepy way with it’s mouth open (you can see it locked on to the tiny elf on the left) — or it pounces on it. it jumps right out of the prompt with its mouth open and tongue out

#

this is the gecko pouncing on an elf… the AI transformed the elf into that strange little creature, and then the gecko jumps on it to eat it

#

and you can tell the characters are freaking out when the gecko tries to jump on them

humble sonnet
#

best

empty kelp
#

would be interesting to know where the model got its gecko training from. pretty sure National Geographic doesn’t have geckos jumping out of tornadoes looking crazy to eat cute little cartoon characters

# open trench Thank you. I would like to see the prompt for those crazy eyed portraits
An art gallery where classic paintings have been replaced with hyper-realistic, uncanny portraits that subtly distort human features, creating a sense of unease. Each painting is a masterful blend of photorealism and surrealism, where the eyes seem too vivid, the smiles too wide, and the skin textures unsettlingly detailed. The gallery itself is modern, with clean lines, minimalist decor, and spotlights that cast dramatic shadows, enhancing the eerie atmosphere. The viewers are visible in the foreground, their expressions a mix of fascination and discomfort as they gaze upon the unsettling art.

Please create a hyper-realistic photo of Santa and three athletic and diverse female elves (with really long hair and pointy ears) seated at a properly set table at a five star hotel restaurant with windows overlooking a sunny Hawaii day on the beach. It is New Year's Day, and Santa and the elves are eating breakfast. They are all wearing appropriate beach wear and smiling. A large gecko wearing a white dress shirt, black pants, and a grey vest is standing next to the table on its hind legs and holding a silver platter piled with delicious food. The plates on the table also have interesting food and tropical drinks selected by the gecko. The image should have 1792x1024 resolution, landscape orientation, and the best possible HD rendering.

Anyone knows how I can prompt Dall-e (and possebly other AI image generation tools) to be better at generating text inside images? best way I know is to use quotation marks for each single word, but that simplistic rute kinda destroys the flow or meaning of any sentences I want to be portrayed.

#

sometimes i have received images of lightroom like gui images, where the actual cropping is happening for an image. that is always funny.

#

or if i describe color schemes i receive images of the literal color scheme complete with color swatches and everything.

#

So there is a problem of explaining concepts that should be apllied to the image rather than those concepts being depicted in literal sense... Almost makes me wish there was two parts to prompts. One for describing the style and one for describing the depicted content.

shut niche
#

@oak scarab No one get's perfect text output, but that'll hopefully help you. Sometimes the more the text makes sense to the scene, the easier it can be too. That's one of the reasons you sometimes see text inserted into a prompt where you didn't even ask for it, but it's inserted in a way that makes natural sense to the environment.
The more complex the prompt is, the longer the text string is, or the more locations in the same scene you attempt to place text, the more failures you'll encounter.
The more commonplace the words are the better your chances will be too.

He is wearing a standard orange prison jumpsuit. The focus is on his hands, securely holding a bar of soap. This is no ordinary soap, as it has a sturdy rope tied around it, ensuring it doesn't slip away. The word 'SOAP' is embossed in bold, raised letters on the bar, making it stand out prominently. The prison cell is dimly lit, with bare concrete walls and a small barred window letting in a sliver of light. The man's expression is one of cautious determination, aware of the challenges of prison life. The image captures a moment of quiet resilience in a tough environment."

The armor is richly detailed, showcasing elements such as a helmet, breastplate, gauntlets, and greaves. The knight's posture is commanding and fills the image space, emphasizing the magnificence and detail of the medieval armor. The background is minimal to enhance focus on the knight, and the lighting accentuates the textures and intricate designs of the armor."

The cuisses, knee poleyns, greaves, and sabatons are all meticulously crafted, showcasing the artistry of the era. The armor's silver hue, with tasteful gold accents, gleams under the focused beam of a ceiling light, which casts dramatic shadows and highlights the detailed textures. The background is muted and neutral, drawing all attention to the full, unobscured view of the armor. The composition captures the armor's imposing presence and the regal elegance of a bygone era.

@final compass make a JSON file with this code and when you do the image, upload the file to Dall-E and ask to make an image with it. That way you make sure that is a portrait image #images-discussions message

I hope future versions have a reliable distancing features, asymmetrical features, and camera angle features.
I'm not 100% certain, but it appears to me that the outer border uses some sort of post-operation out-painting process to make 1792x1024, so you never see the protagonist fully in the perimeter of the images. You'll only see them to the edge of the inner 1024x1024 images.

here's my 1st attempt 😒

late blade
#

does that mean we can have mickey mouse emoji now?

shut niche
#

@final compass So not only did DallE not finish "outpainting" the border area, you can clearly see her head is actually right to the edge of the frame. Dalle likes to keep the protagonists inside of the 1024x1024 inner box. So then, now with this knight, it 'might' also logically explain why its head is cut off... because it's too difficult for DallE to judge how big to first draw the inner section of the knight, so that the rest is properly outpainted to fit within the greater image.

#

@final compass

#

That's just my speculation, but I vary rarely find any images that deviate from this. Even emphasizing the most extreme asymmetrical prompts, the best I typically see is left/right of the 1024x1024 box (or top/bottom - for vertical in this case).

single quote text you want in the scene. prefixing location vs suffix tends to be better(ie- good: A yard sign stating 'For Sale' Bad: A 'For Sale' yard sign) it isnt a hard rule but seems to be the better option of format more often than not.

also guys, gals, n pals, you will also find better results telling the AI to "preplan" the text placement. Now lets top that off wtih not only tell it to preplan, but to opt for a "text field" that it "scales to fit" the desired space

this was key to accurate large text

# onyx ridge This is systemic bias against femininity.

The incorrect rotation has to be issue with training set having more incorrectly rotated portraits of women. But also the error rate is highly elevated even if your prompt was the most generic non-descriptive female character. Because gpt will also fill the prompt with description that causes the image to fail. Even if you didn't ask anything at all.

onyx ridge
#

That's been my experience. My only conclusion is that the architecture is designed fundamentally wrong. Here's what I mean:

We're told the model must be fed explicit images to support an understanding of human anatomy for medical and research purposes. So supervisor models filter the garbage out at our expense, both financially and psychologically. But that's pretty stupid. We're wasting heat and generation time for a stupervisor agent to pluck it from the ether anyway.

The filters are backwards. The content filters should be strong up-front for training and relaxed with a pretrained safe model.

The notion that the model can be used to generate medical diagrams is farsical. I've tried that to validate this justification. It's complete rubbish. DALL-E 3 can't generate accurate female anatomical diagrams reliably, either. So why's the data in there to begin with, again?

#

I can speculate that there's another tier of user, one I don't know about, that enjoys this benefit. Maybe that's altruistic - maybe doctors get uncensored access and it's not advertized or billed. Maybe.

#doubt.

#

Furthermore, there's an ethical inconsistency at play here, and not an insignificant one.

If these types of images are objectionable and harmful, then it's not ethical to train a model on them in the first place. Doing so propagates the bias of the harm, even if output doesn't contain the harmful content itself. It's a fallacy to think that including the data but censoring it sterilizes the ethical considerations.

While we're on the topic of sharing frequency: do you have any thoughts on users' desire to share DALL·E images more quickly in a chat environment? With the previous DALL·E channels, users were able to share and chat in places like #🌄┃general-art. Now, there's #1154829862171844679 as a catch-all, but that lacks the "chatroom" experience, which I think is what results in this channel being used as a general "quick share" space, which sometimes can occlude its purpose as a discussion channel. Just curious if you see any use or value in having a specified place for this kind of "quick share" desire!

final compass
#

Hmm... For me personally channels dedicated for images only can be quite overwhelming without a theme and less engaging.

That’s why having the Bing model is so great. I disagree with the community that it’s also over-censored. The dog isn’t really censoring your prompt, it’s censoring itself.

*I'm all for a channel meant for a general "chat-room" experience, for random sharing with less restrictive discussion guidelines. There's a lot of creative people here that keep many of their best creations or knowledge to themselves because they're considered "off topic" or spam.
*Side note, but related, since one of the main concerns seems to be discussions getting "buried" too quickly by frequent posts. I think a Discord bot that answers common questions is long over due. Give ChatGPT a script and tie it to the discussion thread through the API. The same new user or common questions and misunderstandings are mentioned almost daily. Just the "penalty box" and content filter alone bring plenty of "hot and bothered" users in. A simple explanations performed by a ChatGPT bot might help to diffuse that.
*I also think some "official" OAI DEV answers explaining functionality in some KB's would be helpful to all. I see a lot of misinformation circulating, based on peoples anecdotal experiences, instead of factual "it was designed to function in this way" style of facts being presented. There's no general guide of "best practices." (Nothing simple to point people to).

DallE does incredibly well if the ideas are clearly explained, and logically separated. E.g., you could expand and do that with 3 character types, so long as each has it's own isoloated description, that's then tied back to a greater narrative or scene summary. Bullets, and various code or pseudocode formats work well to break objects/concepts into "conceptual blocks" for DallE to more easily digest.
But... it's nearly impossible to prevent the extra legs, lol. For that, you usually just need to run multiple gens until a good one pops out.

empty kelp
#

moreover, the models understand English. they don’t require the API

shut niche
#

A WAY over simplified version might be...

A photo of Santa standing on the shoulders of an elf, who is standing on the shoulders of a bear that is standing on a ball, like a circus act.

  1. Santa looks like this and is doing that.
  2. The elf looks like this and is doing that.
  3. The bear looks like this and is doing that.
    Together this scene shows an amazing balancing act performed by the 3 characters.

Scene summary, isolated elements, outro summary/closing.

#

You can ask ChatGPT to do this, and it's pretty decent at it, so long as you explain that you want bullets, with a scene summary, each object or concept as a bullet, and an outro summary tying it back together. The results might surprise you.

I hear you on this, and considered that before I responded. But the fact is, they actually used a vision model to encode text into hyper-detailed synthetic descriptions of images, and once you understand the format of that original text that was used, the image generation (prompt writing) process becomes easier to understand. I'm certain there was unpublished testing and knowledge acquired by the DEVs that might make common issues "non-issues." Maybe the best formatting for prompts, how adding text was "trained," what adds emphasis to concepts, how concepts are weighted (and shift), the (assumed) out-painting process, known things it can't do well. I can think of tons of areas their input would be desirable or useful to everyone.
No doubt, there's plenty of trial and error with emergent behaviors to consider, that exist in that more "grey" area of "learned" understanding. But much of it could be better understood by sharing/discussing more of the "less secretive" design elements.

#

Like, most regulars here know that ChatGPT+ sends the prompt to DallE via JSON. Information like that could just be published openly, instead of this Discord being a collective of people "data-mining" information that's known.

empty kelp
#

ChatGPT+ sends the promps as English. it's not JSON

#

try asking what the prompt was, and then ask for an API version

#

it sends the resolution, and the English prompt to DALL-E 3

#

it rewrites what you tell it in English, and then passes it to DALL-E

shut niche
#

It converts the prompts to English, and then bundles them into a known JSON format with the resolution.
But just you and I disagreeing about that is the point I'm making. The DEVs could simply answer these questions openly, and definitively for everyone. Maybe I'm wrong. It would be nice to have a document that simply stated the facts so everyone wasn't repeating common mistakes.

empty kelp
#

you can see here i asked it to create a mushroom, then what the prompt was, then what it would look like in the API

#

i just rewrites what you tell it in English, and then passes it to DALL-E with the resolution

#

but that's very useful -- because GPT 4 has a profound understanding of how DALL-E works, so it can help you figure out what to put in the prompts

shut niche
#

When you asked for the prompt, you ask for the prompt used. That doesn't = what was sent to DallE.

#

Look at how I phrased the question differently. Your question was only receiving a partial answer. Ask more specifically, if it's sending your English prompt bundled within a JSON format to DallE, and what that exact format was, with prompt included.

#

And I feel like this is a great distraction to make the point, that the DEVs could literally just "tell us" the answers to many of these common questions, instead of allowing each user to "muddle" through it. It would be a better user experience if there were some "understood" baselines established.
Unofficial answers, in this case, allows misinformation from either you or I to cycle in this Discord. It's a great example of why some of these details should be officially stated, because one of us is wrong. How would any user looking at these discussions know? It should be stated in a KB.

dim cradle
#

The API, which everything goes through, reference documents the parameters. There are only a few, just about everything goes into the prompt parameter eventually, as natural language -- the JSON templates people are using are nothing more than a spec sheet, as those parameters don't exist.

dense mesa
#

Well it would be nice either way to get some kind of best use guidelines from people that could actually answer these questions more definitively.

I ask ChatGPT to post the prompt it sends after generating images like this in my custom instructions fwiw After the image is displayed, provide a separate response containing only the full prompt used for the generation, formatted in a code block.

So there is seed data?! ChatGPT!!! (Shakes fist)

Are you guys able to get it to gen more than 1 image btw? I was getting 2 yesterday but today only ever get one even though ChatGPT has apologized several times (but never follow through)

dense mesa

Right now there's a lot of the blind leading the blind. And I think everyone needs to be open to accepting they might be misguided about some things.

plush yarrow
#

lol

dim cradle
#

gen_id/reference_image_ids is the new seed, seeds are gone, and there's no API parameter for it, so it must be included in the prompt, and it only works if it's in the same session. seeding is in active development and isn't consisent or reliable (check the openai developer forums, it's in constant flux)

dense mesa
#

Well a seed by any other name is still a seed. I'm curious why they changed that though

shut niche
dim cradle
#

Not sure why they changed the property names, but it switched over back in October -- the earlier posts in the dev forms talk and test (with a forum mod who speaks for the dev team) are using "seeds" and then in November things changed to the gen_id (output) and reference_image_ids (input). It appears to be in the early stages.

the JSON prompts through heavy preprocessing, then to a language model, then to a diffusion model

#

the JSON is just a wrapper

#

it's a good way of organizing things

shut niche
#

Moxi said it was because the seeds break when they make updates, so it was unreliable. They don't want to even "half" support a seed feature they know will break. Think of users that might get accustomed to the repeatability, only to suddenly not be able to make the identical image after an update. It makes sense.

empty kelp
#

what it draws is super unpredictable, and the gecko is a good example of why

shut niche
empty kelp
#

if small creatures are in a scene with a gecko, the gecko go into "eat everything" mode, and the AI spawns bugs and creepy things into your image, and the behavior of the gecko warps your entire image

#

these AI models are full of crazy, unpredictable stuff, and even slightly changing the order of things in a prompt or making small changes can have a huge affect on what it draws

#

so having a reusable format like the JSON can give images some continuity if you use it for multiple images

shut niche
#

It does. But also, the more formal your structure, the more consistency you'll get. Each object or concept carries a weighted value. Adding to one subtracts from another. That's one primary cause of variation.

empty kelp
#

but what DALL-E draws will still be super unpredictable, because it sucks up all sorts of crazy stuff into the training data

shut niche
#

Dalle works by "concept." So also, the looser the interpretation, the more variance.

empty kelp
#

like you wouldn't guess that Santa would suddenly decide to climb up on top of the elves and stand on their heads if there is nothing like that in the prompt, but he does it

shut niche
#

That's why text appears autonomously sometimes, because it fits the "concept" of the scene.

dim cradle
#

it helps if you craft the prompt to describe precisely what you expect depicted, the more you leave it open to interpretation the more unexpected.

feral minnow
#

I love when it sprays the ethnicity of the person directly onto their clothing

shut niche
#

Made this earlier, to demonstrate text in a scene. Notice his button/pin that says "Bing." I didn't ask for it, but it makes sense to the scene. It placed it there based on "concept," but not based on a physical description of any button/pin.

#

Likewise, the "suggestive" hand gesture that goes well with the comment.

empty kelp
#

the DALL-E documentation explains that to draw things it needs to reproduce the behavior of whatever it draws. so if you put a gecko into the image it immediately starts spawning bugs and weird food -- and it's also triggered by things that have nothing to do with a gecko. It gloms the gecko behavior together with like the Encyclopedia Galactica, and comes up with some really nonsensical and disturbing stuff

shut niche

Have you ever asked ChatGPT the diamond in a glass question? It might help to understand what you just said, in an abstract way.

If I put a diamond in a glass, then I put the glass upside down on my bed, then I carry the glass to my kitchen, where is the diamond?

#

It will hallucinate, and it will give you every reason imaginable for the diamond to still be in the glass. A common answer is that the gravity of the glass holds the diamond in position.
Likewise, DallE doesn't understand the worldly relationships you expect it to, of a gecko. There's some, obviously, but it's not a complete or well understood holistic knowledge of geckos. Only what it's seen in images. It's worldview isn't a clear one.

empty kelp
#

try creating a tornado in your image, and tell it "the tornado has the style of Bosch"

#

it will really make you wonder about AI

dim cradle
#

Statistically speaking it’s seen geckos with other insects. Especially if you specify surreal it’s going to pull in connected assets. One way to avoid that is to be consistent in terms. If you call it a gecko, stick with that, if you call it a lizard later it’s going to incorporate more generalities.

empty kelp
#

the gecko flips the AI upside down and makes everything go crazy

shut niche
#

In what manner? ChatGPT rewrites user's ideas into more elaborate and structured prompts, which is why it works so well. However, if you don't like the prompts it's writing, you simply say,
Run this verbatim,
"Prompt here Blah blah blah"
That will allow you to write your own prompts and run them.

empty kelp
#

if you use "hyper-realistic" it limits the number of images you can generate. it's part of the pre-processing

#

like if you tell ChatGPT to create "the best of all possible images" it will insert hyper-realistic into the prompt

dim cradle
#

"Hyperrealism, also known as Photorealism, is a genre of art that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s as an evolution of photorealistic art. Hyperrealist artists create paintings, sculptures, or other artworks that are so detailed and precise that they often appear indistinguishable from high-resolution photographs or even reality itself. Hyperrealism requires immense technical skill and patience, as creating such detailed and precise works can be a time-consuming and challenging process." Sounds ideally suited for AI, actually, and it's a subtle but important distinction.

shut niche
#

There, that's a little more polished. It now outputs the JSON wrapper with prompt, image ID, and seed. That will also help anyone using it to verify that their prompt wasn't modified.

empty kelp

it's good to ask ChatGPT for the prompts. it's able to explain things that aren't obvious about DALL-E, like how to blow things in different ways with a vortex, or bend trees in a certain way. Things that you would never guess

Just remember, if you get it to work from a seed, that it's not officially supported, and might not work the same, or at all, at any time.

The DEVs would have to weigh in on this, but my "assumption" is that the image_ID is the 'future' route they've chosen (possibly for video implementation??). I have a "hunch" that they're experimenting with video image regen, which would require repeatable characters with slight positional variations, which a seed probably doesn't really do all that well... as the characters are moved around (or camera angle).
But that's just my own speculation, and a seemingly logical secondary reason to abandon seeds.

Yeah think you’re right. Still super dodge; `The images may appear similar because they were generated using the same detailed prompt and referenced the same initial image. However, they are not identical. DALL·E uses the referenced image to guide the style and content of the new generation, resulting in images that are visually similar but still unique in their details.

If you're noticing strong similarities, it's likely due to the specific instructions and the style dictated by the prompt, which directs DALL·E to create images with similar themes and aesthetics.`
