SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the performance of DALL·E 2, an AI image generation tool, which users find disappointing compared to ChatGPT. Users report that the quality of images produced is subpar, often failing to meet expectations even with detailed prompts. The consensus is that DALL·E 2 is currently inadequate for serious artistic endeavors, with users suggesting that other platforms, like DeviantArt, yield superior results. Overall, the sentiment is that DALL·E 2 requires significant improvement before it can be considered a viable tool for creating art.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of AI image generation concepts
  • Familiarity with prompt engineering techniques
  • Basic knowledge of tools like DALL·E 2 and Stable Diffusion
  • Experience with CUDA for running AI models locally
NEXT STEPS
  • Research advanced prompt engineering techniques for DALL·E 2
  • Explore Stable Diffusion setup and configuration on local machines
  • Investigate alternative AI art generation tools available on DeviantArt
  • Learn about the limitations and capabilities of AI in creative processes
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for digital artists, AI enthusiasts, and developers interested in the current state of AI-generated art and its practical applications.

So I tested ChatGPT's cousin, Dalle.e 2. It is said to create images from text, and the website suggest to be very explicit in the description of the image, add many details, to get a good picture.
My mind started to wander... Would I finally get a pic of Einstein battling dinosaurs, or having a dinner with Newton while Trump and Putin are playing chess under the table? Boy did I was disappointed. Terribly disappointed.

Don't waste your time... this software is absolute garbage (for now at least), it's light years behind chatGPT.

I had the same experience with Defusion Bee. It was about the same as what you are showing. People on DeviantArt are producing wildly better things with Ai, including complex stories with consistent appearances of the characters. I don't know what tools they are using, but it isn't DeviantArt's own Ai. The thing threatened to ban me for my first request, and didn't even say why.

The person who won that art competition said they spent 200 hours trying prompts before getting what they wanted. This isn't a fire and forget tool.

Yes. Ai can't create art. But then neither can pencils, cameras, or photoshop. Humans create art.

I have spent several evenings trying to configure stable diffusion to run on my computer using CUDA. I have spent even more hours generating over 24k images from different prompts (OK, my computer did, choosing and entering a prompt is like half a minute). I have but a few images that are reasonably close to being worth of showing.

Yes, at this stage it is mostly useless garbage.
