aiLL 7/5/23 - Exploring AI's Creative Potential

Transcript

1. 0:04foreign
2. 0:26welcome to the AI learning lab it is what day is it Wednesday July 5th yesterday was the fourth hey Tobias what's happening
3. 0:41what's happening welcome to the AI learning lab I had a uh an AI Salon tonight so that's why I'm getting a late start
4. 0:51for those for those of you uh betting on my stop start times yeah you know you know cheers I'm here I'm not going to stay that long tonight
5. 1:05I'm gonna it'll be a short one tonight we're not doing a three hour marathon ah welcome everybody this is the AI
6. 1:14learning lab my name is Kyle Shannon uh while while everyone's coming in the URLs you see on screen here are things
7. 1:21you should go play with if you have not played with chat GPT go there go to that top one that's the that's the uh what's
8. 1:29that called that's the official chat GPD website if you've never played with it go play with it and if that scares you then go to Bing
9. 1:38that's Microsoft search engine and click on the chat button that's also chat gbt and then if that scares you then go to
10. 1:45Poe that's got six different things you can play with hello from Arizona hey Leah how are you welcome welcome
11. 1:51welcome holy crap a bunch of people just showed up welcome everyone my name is Kyle Shannon this is the AI learning lab I am a entrepreneur
12. 2:01and um a self-styled tick tock comedian I don't know I'm talking about this AI [ __ ] uh I started 12 or 15 companies I'm
13. 2:12currently the CEO and co-founder of a company called storyvine which is an 11 year old hey silver fox 11 year old company uh that does
14. 2:23automated video production super sexy but uh we don't we don't really use AI we've been around for 11 years uh we're
15. 2:30just now starting to roll AI into the platform so interesting interesting times fascinating times uh I had an AI Salon
16. 2:38tonight so I'm getting a bit of a late start uh the way this works pop some questions down below I'll do my best to
17. 2:44answer questions I'm happy to talk about my background a little bit of potentially relevant uh history of my
18. 2:51background is I was one of the uh the innovators in the early days of the World Wide Web I was a co-founder of a
19. 2:57company called agency.com which was one of the early digital agencies in the mid 90s and uh when that when I when I stumbled
20. 3:05upon this thing called the World Wide Web I had kind of this major Epiphany like holy [ __ ] the world just changed and
21. 3:12and uh and so I started agency.com and sure enough you know the World Wide Web changed the world and you know being a
22. 3:19part of that from kind of the early days and and you know taking it up through the through the madness
23. 3:27um I didn't think I'd have a chance in my life to see another one of those show up and then generative AI showed up and
24. 3:36I'm like holy [ __ ] this is like one of those except bigger um so anyway that's uh that's what this channel is about uh
25. 3:47I've been I've been I am not a machine learning guy I'm not an engineer scientist data scientist uh but I am I
26. 3:55would call myself an early adopter of especially uh technologies that I think are significant and profound and I think
27. 4:02this stuff is significant and profound and it's coming way faster than that World Wide Web stuff did so if you've
28. 4:08got questions pop them in the comments below I'll do my best to answer them and uh yeah let's get started
29. 4:16I just took my sleep meds because I didn't think you were on well that's that's to see now you put me on it's
30. 4:23like a double dose of sleep meds so you'll be out in no time just the dulcin the the dulcid tones of Kyle Shannon
31. 4:31going on and on about you know this chat GPT thing it could be something you know I I hear it's going to be exciting and
32. 4:38it's going to be transformative people might lose their jobs it could destroy us all so how can I help with daughter studying
33. 4:48on her last year of medical school she's constantly studying um you know it can it it could potentially offer her ways to
34. 4:58um sift through things she's got to study it could come up with flash cards it could she could take something that she's
35. 5:06trying to learn paste that into chat GPT and have it come up with creative ways of uh teaching it to her right so she
36. 5:14could say here's a bunch of [ __ ] I want to learn here's the way I like to learn can you come up with a custom way to
37. 5:23teach me that in the next 15 minutes quiz be on it and keep doing that cycle until I've got it and it'll do that
38. 5:32um so it could help with that um if she gets bored she could go to Mid journey and do all sorts of creepy medical images
39. 5:43or even non-creepy ones um but it is an incredible knowledge that sits underneath that simple URL is
40. 5:53is quite profound so so these three URLs here are all different places that you can play with chat GPT the top one's the
41. 6:00official chat GPT website the uh this one at the bottom here prompts.chat that is a really good primer to teach
42. 6:10you about prompting how you talk to these things because how you talk to these things is really different than
43. 6:15how you talk to Google so so if you're playing around on this and can't quite figure out what to do go to that
44. 6:20prompts.chat thing look at that document it'll teach you about prompting and then it gives you a bunch of personas that
45. 6:26you can tell chat GPT chat gbt to act like a certain kind of thing like act like a a a an educator who's gonna a
46. 6:36test prep person uh for medical school and it will start acting like that and get get really good at it so so
47. 6:42hopefully that helps but that that should you know that's at least a start for her to start playing with it
48. 6:49and quite frankly I mean it you know she could probably learn some things um or get some coaching from chat GPT around
49. 6:57um interacting with patients um I don't it depends I don't know quite what she's learning and studying but there's some stuff there
50. 7:06to play with buffering I know I've got crappy Internet thanks Comcast you suck Xfinity gig internet it's a lot of money and it never works
51. 7:23you all played with the new threads you played with threads the new Twitter competitor from meta I installed it
52. 7:33I don't know what's going on with it I mean it just looks like simple Twitter what is the Nova app I have it I don't know
53. 7:42let me go look yeah all right Nova AI I assume it's AI app yes Nova chatbot Nova is here for you 24 7.
54. 7:58this AI assistant can generate generate human-like responses powered by chat GPT and gpt4 scroll down okay um
55. 8:13try for free huh I don't know it looks like um it looks like sort of a multi-platform chat GPT interface
56. 8:29yeah I think this is just this is just an alternative to chat GPT is what it looks like we're here you've got some example
57. 8:37prompts there you've got to ask me anything there um let's see write me a poem about quantum mechanics um like
58. 8:52T.S Eliot yeah I don't know I think it I I think it's just an alternative to chat GPT is it free I don't know I so so for my
59. 9:08money for for my money if I were a bitten man you know they're the guys that invented the underlying model that's their thing are
60. 9:18there going to be apps that are better than that there are but the reason I would pay for that over some other app
61. 9:23is that they're going to give me access to their newest stuff sooner than those other things will um I hear it's the devil that's not the
62. 9:33devil it could be an angel knock knock is there something answered uh all right um where do we go to talk with AI That's
63. 9:47why this is on screen go to chat.openai.com it's going to look like a Google search here I will go play and show you
64. 9:56let's go to chat GPT so here's chat GPT this is my chat history I've got GPT 3.5 and gpt4 the difference is this one's
65. 10:07faster this one's better and then this one also has plugins it this one used to be connected to the internet but they shut that [ __ ] down
66. 10:15two days ago because apparently their connection to the internet was siphoning uh content from behind paywalls without
67. 10:24paying for it and apparently that pissed some people off so they shut that down um and then this is how you chat with it
68. 10:32so I'll just go to the GPT 3.5 which if you're on the free version this is what you play with and say make a table
69. 10:43comparing the early days of the world wide web and the early days of generative AI and it might not do too well with the
70. 10:59generative AI because it yeah it says I've got a cut off at September 2021. so it's probably got some older things in there
71. 11:07time period late 80s to early 90s late 2010s to early 2020s so but notice that it formatted the table it wrote it really quickly I
72. 11:18didn't have to do any research go find anything it's just there I could also say things like um could you turn this into a python
73. 11:31application um that asks for a year and provides uh uh stats I don't know
74. 11:48that's a horrible prompt but it understood it sure here it is time period main goal user interaction access and connectivity so it you know
75. 12:00it's writing our python script here then it explains what it did explains how to run it when you run the application it will
76. 12:08prompt you to enter the technology either World Wide Web or Ai and the year you're interested in it will then
77. 12:13retrieve the statistics from the corresponding CSV file and display them um can you make a more detailed CSV file certainly here you go
78. 12:30and so now it's creating 1989 1990 1991 a whole long list of things that happened in those years so um so that's that's chatting with AI and
79. 12:43and you know the other site that I had up here this one down below me prompts.chat will teach you all sorts of different ways that you
80. 12:53can play with it like that so hopefully that helps as an artist that just graduated in animation to be honest AI
81. 13:00is so disheartening due to the hostility the hostility is going to fade every time there's a new technology the current established people
82. 13:09especially with something like AI that is threatening 20 30 40-year careers um the the hostility is going to be
83. 13:18there people are afraid they're afraid of change um what I would do if I were you so let me let me show you another thing so we had
84. 13:25we had one of these meetings tonight so I created this thing called the AI salon um and it's a community of people who
85. 13:32are curious about AI exploring it there's a lot of artists in this this used to be called the AI artist Salon but if you go to the salon.ai
86. 13:41um it's a link tree there's a meet up there but there's also a Discord there join the Discord start hanging out start
87. 13:47talking to people it's a community of like-minded people I think we've got I don't know 550 people in the Meetup and
88. 13:54we've got a LinkedIn Community we've got the Discord Community um so so surround yourself with people that are
89. 14:03playing in this because it you know the the people that are resisting it and afraid of it you know they're at some point gonna have to deal
90. 14:11with it they might not want to deal with it but at some point they're going to have to so if you don't have the energy
91. 14:15or the patience to deal with that right now surround yourself with people uh that that uh that are into this because you know listen this is
92. 14:27quite frankly this is it's like the most powerful technology in the history of mankind and and it's gonna it's gonna change a lot
93. 14:35um and and I think you're wise to start playing with it and and wise to be an AI literate you know animator
94. 14:44um and those that aren't are going to get they're gonna I don't know it's gonna be a rude awakening so uh you know
95. 14:50jump in it I'm there we're there go go go all right so paste all the studying and chat GPT so Rhythm she so the way Chachi
96. 14:59BT Works she can't paste in a tremendous amount because there's a thing called a context window it's like a 3000 word
97. 15:06limit but she could do it in little chunks if she needs to put in a really big chunk um she can use um uh plugins uh for chat GPT that'll go
98. 15:18look at a website and read it or go read a PDF or she can use a model that allows for larger context window I'll show you
99. 15:25one of those so right there poe.com let me let me go show you Poe where do I have it I have it here here it is okay
100. 15:38so po.com is just like chat gbt you enter some stuff down here but over on the left hand side you've got um
101. 15:47you've got six different models here that you can play with three of them are subscription only so gpt4 Claude plus
102. 15:56and Claude instant 100K you have to be uh you know paying the I think it's 20 bucks a month for Poe but this one Claude instant 100K that's
103. 16:05got a context window of essentially 75 000 words so that's a really long document so she could potentially paste
104. 16:13in yeah an entire you know study guide or whatever it is she's studying just paste it in there and start interacting
105. 16:20with it you know asking it questions having you know it come up with um interesting ways for her to learn and
106. 16:28test and flash cards and all sorts of things like that so oh and this is not focusing because I didn't change my
107. 16:37settings someone told me how to do that last night I didn't do it because you know add anyway hopefully that helps
108. 16:45um I know it's a lot there's a lot a lot going on with this stuff but just have her jump in and start playing is it true
109. 16:51chat GPT is only up to date to 2021 and so and if so will it be updated to 2023 so yes it is true that the core
110. 17:02large language model the base model of GPT 3.5 and 4 stops at September 2021. the reason for that is that to do those
111. 17:12base models it's called you know the large language model that that core foundational model is very very time
112. 17:19consuming very very manual like it's a lot of manual data tagging and it's massive amounts of uh GPU cycles and
113. 17:26just a lot of compute and data thrown at this thing the way they're augmenting it is they're connecting it to the Internet so if you
114. 17:34go to bing.com and you click on the chat button at bing.com that's gpt4 and it's connected to the internet
115. 17:42so if you search for something uh or if you if you interact with chat uh at bing.com um if you ask it for something more
116. 17:51recent than September 2021 it will actually go to a an internet search pull that data in and augment the answer with
117. 17:58that so so that's how they're kind of updating it the GPT 5 is being trained right now um I think apparently who knows
118. 18:09they'll get around to it when they can I I assume that won't come out probably until end of the year or beginning of next year
119. 18:16um that will probably be as recent as 2023 but by the time it's rolled out in full that'll be behind as well so
120. 18:25um so it will be updated but it's it's it's a very slow process to to update those base models buffering thanks again you're welcome
121. 18:35just asking Bing chat to describe the image of a flower give General answer then a link to a florist just asked to describe an image of a
122. 18:45flower well you can if you go to bing.com you can have it create a flower an image of a flower so you say so here I am at Bing
123. 18:54and so if when you first go to bing.com you're going to land on something that's kind of like a Google Search right and
124. 19:00it's just like a search bar and then right up here if you hit chat that takes you into Bing chat and you can ask it to be more creative more
125. 19:09balanced or more precise and then you can say make an image of a let's say make a photo of a sunflower
126. 19:27bending toward the sunset and so now it's going to actually make one so it says I'll try to create that
127. 19:43and your image is generating and this is pretty quick there you go those are actually pretty good so bending toward the Sun
128. 20:00all right thank you so much for explaining that it makes a lot of sense I'm I am learning a beginner level
129. 20:07course on Coursera that's great and the reason I have these domains on screen is for exactly that like if you're just
130. 20:16getting started with this stuff um there's all sorts of courses out there there's all sorts of apps there's
131. 20:23all sorts of people telling you you should try this you should try that you should do this you can make movies you can do bats
132. 20:33just go to the top one just go to chat.openai.com that's chatgpt start to get your head around what it can do I
133. 20:42mean they're the ones that invented this thing that that set off to all these fireworks not the fireworks on July 4th
134. 20:49the AI fireworks where everyone's talking about it and everyone's like it's gonna take my job and it's gonna kill Humanity that one
135. 20:58that's it right there when you get there it it's gonna be very unimpressive it's gonna look like that it's gonna look like all right well
136. 21:12what's that it's like a Google search bar and nothing else and then you ask it to do stuff and it does it and it's really something let's
137. 21:22see create um a flyer for a flower stand that only sells organic
138. 21:38flowers to children I don't know format in mark down so I can see the
139. 21:52sections boom and well it didn't it actually wrote out the the markdown code Organics flowers for kids um I want to see the layout
140. 22:12not the code uh that's didn't do it it's I've I've confused it please format
141. 22:27and mark down um where the design is rendered try it one more time nah didn't do it anyway
142. 22:43um it goes deep deep and so so go play there and then if you're confused about what to put in there and what to do go
143. 22:50to prompts.chat and that will teach you how to do this stuff can you give it access to your pictures folder and have it write ads using your
144. 22:58images not yet silhouettes by Chris but you know give it six months to a year it's it's not quite there yet you can so
145. 23:06if you go to bing.com there's a new thing you can do in bing.com this isn't exactly doing what you're asking but
146. 23:12this is kind of interesting this is something new that I found today um I don't know how long it's been there and and uh
147. 23:22someone else that I was talking to didn't have this feature so if you go to bing.com and go to chat you see down
148. 23:29here in the in this search bar over here on the right there's a microphone if you want to talk but there's also this
149. 23:35camera icon a picture I can actually drag pictures in here so let me go find a picture let's see yeah that's a good one
150. 23:45uh no that's that's an Epub hang on oh that's a movie it's that that's a movie all right that's good okay
151. 23:58so I'm gonna drag the picture into Bing I'm gonna say um write me some copy to go with this picture
152. 24:12that references what's in the image and gets people to buy a ticket I've never tried
153. 24:27this so This Might fail miserably but it's a picture of a boat like a big cruise ship it says analyzing the image privacy blur
154. 24:39hides faces from Bing chat it says how about this dream cruise have you ever dreamed of sailing on a cruise ship that
155. 24:46can take you to places beyond your imagination so it actually did it silhouette by Chris it's not bad that's way too long let me
156. 24:56stop it from there um good now make it an Instagram length copy
157. 25:14Dream Cruise sail beyond your imagination join us for the most incredible journey of your life on a digital art masterpiece by a Adobe
158. 25:24Firefly that's really funny so it actually read so there's a watermark in that image because I created it with Adobe Firefly
159. 25:32so in the bottom left hand corner of that image this is fascinating in the bottom left-hand corner it says Adobe Firefly beta
160. 25:41image not for commercial use so it actually read that and it Incorporated it into the ad explored paper mountains or origami
161. 25:52Islands folded forest and more um so I'm going to say okay the style of the art is paper but the cruise is real
162. 26:10can you make an ad that um handles this in a clever way let's see what it does let's do a little
163. 26:25copyright in here a little little GPT copywriting Dream Cruise where reality meets fantasy ever wondered what it would be like to
164. 26:32sail on a cruise ship that you can take to places beyond your imagination a cruise ship so again it did it really long oops
165. 26:41book your okay I'm gonna stop it there I'm gonna say uh make it much shorter bam fun for the whole family bring field
166. 26:59on the most magical Cruise ever book now and make your dreams come true let's say you didn't reference the paper
167. 27:11art this time let's see if it if it can piece some of that together so one of the things you can do with these large language models is
168. 27:22um like like it kind of remembers what you've been talking about so it understands context bring your family on
169. 27:28board and enjoy the activities uh play Relax learn most magical inspired by the paper art of adobe Firefly that's pretty
170. 27:36funny all right so it wasn't perfect but honest to God but the first thing that it did the fact that it looked at that
171. 27:42saw that it was a cruise ship and then actually wrote some copy about a Dream Cruise so that's that's pretty much there so if you're
172. 27:50Bing chat has that icon then you could drag your images into here and start interacting with it all right
173. 28:04thank you for doing this on a regular basis you're welcome my daughter found a chat with AI game on Roblox Roblox that
174. 28:12claim to connect to chat gpt4 that doesn't surprise me I know that there's Roblox um there's a bunch of stuff with Roblox including
175. 28:22I saw a demo of um a thing where you're going to be able to just describe a world and it will build it in Roblox so uh yeah that
176. 28:31stuff's coming um our retail Link's typical surprised me if you're using Bing retail links are probably typical because they're they're
177. 28:43probably going to try to find ways to monetize to monetize your clicks I got a hair on my glasses all right having
178. 28:55trouble having Bing on my Samsung Android to do images yeah the the Bing app on Android I don't know what features it's got
179. 29:04um I would say you could also try going to your browser on Android and um see if you can do it that way
180. 29:15um just go to bing.com on your browser [Music] all right good question Silhouettes I agree that
181. 29:30was a good question nice it's cited a reference I've toyed with it a bit AI can write pretty eloquently it does better if you give it
182. 29:39more context or if you give it examples it's really good if you give it examples [Music] um what about linking to a folder in the cloud so
183. 29:50um not yet emphasis on yet that's coming so both Google and Microsoft um have uh indicated or you know demoed
184. 30:03that they're they're incorporating Bard in Google's case and and GPT chat gbt in Microsoft's case they're they're
185. 30:12incorporating it into their office suite so included in their office suites are cloud storage right so
186. 30:19um probably before the end of the year we will see both of those Services um where you know within Microsoft Word or
187. 30:31Excel or sheets or docs you'll have writing assistance within there and you'll be able to point them at Google
188. 30:37Drives now whether or not you can search across all of your data in Google Drive or just individual documents
189. 30:44um Dropbox just announced last week that within Dropbox you can now select any document within Dropbox and basically GPT it
190. 30:55um and and they said they're starting with single documents and then they're going to move to multiple documents so that's coming
191. 31:02if you're impatient and you're geeky um go look up a project called Lang chain and you can do that right now you
192. 31:09can embed your own data throw it into what's called a vector database and basically make your company GPT or your docs GPT
193. 31:18um so that's that's possible to do right now but you got to be a little geeky so you could just have a little patience
194. 31:24and wait for these big ass companies to figure this stuff out and just go I want to point it there and then be able to
195. 31:30ask it questions and have it tell me stuff like I'm super smart could you please do that Microsoft no I don't like Microsoft Apple would
196. 31:39you do that please and they will but you know if you ain't patient what are you gonna do if you're wondering why I'm acting like
197. 31:51an idiot that's just who I am all right that's how she rolls here at the AI learning lab commit Journey take an example photo and
198. 32:04modify it for you sort of and sort so all of the image generation and regeneration stuff is a little wonky
199. 32:13right now especially when you're trying to take an image and modify it you can upload an image to mid-journey
200. 32:20so you basically just drag an image there I can show you how to do it you drag an image there upload it to Discord then you get a URL
201. 32:29for it and and you can do a prompt based on an image there's also a remix function there's also just Adobe generative fill
202. 32:40where you can take an image and change it so you could keep the core part of an image let me go let me go find something here
203. 32:49um let's do let me go to search Bing search uh let's go uh fashion shoot New York City
204. 33:03images all right so we're gonna go grab an image here this one looks good though that one's good well let's see which one do we want to get
205. 33:19let me just grab that one all right so I'm gonna go copy of it so now I'm going to pop over to Photoshop beta we're going to create a
206. 33:27new image we're going to paste that in so there's our little there's our little fashion shoot image um and now we've got uh adobe's
207. 33:36generative fill is part of the Photoshop beta so one thing I could do is I could say well this was shot in portrait but I
208. 33:42actually need it in landscape so let me go make it this big and I'm going to go on ahead and select everything but the image
209. 33:58and then I'm going to say generative fill and I'm not going to put any prompt in there I could put a prompt in there but I'm not going to
210. 34:05and I'm just going to say generate and it is going to figure out based on the context of this image how to fill it out
211. 34:11and it's going to give us three options and this in and of itself is pretty magical all right so now we've got an image
212. 34:25that looks like it's got a very weird crashed car here like that's a very bizarre car um that actually looks pretty normal
213. 34:35and that's messed up so we'll go with that that normal one okay so now we have this woman in um in a in a larger photo but let's say
214. 34:47she's got a black jacket there we were actually hoping that she had on a red jacket so I'm gonna highlight the jacket
215. 34:59and I'm gonna say generative Fill Red Jacket and that will go off and do its thing
216. 35:17that's not red is it that's not red but it's a different jacket well that's kind of cool all right I like that one better
217. 35:23all right we just changed up our fashion line so now we're gonna do let's do it let's do another thing here we're gonna do
218. 35:32um we'll select her I know this is painful watching an old guy use the lasso tool in Photoshop but
219. 35:46you know what do you want for free all right so I selected her now I'm going to invert it so now I'm selected everything
220. 35:52but her I'm going to say generative fill and I'm going to say tropical foreign Forest and it should replace this city shot
221. 36:06with her in a tropical rainforest we'll see how well it does look at that now she's in a rainforest with a bunch of tourists
222. 36:22I don't know what that we oh that one's kind of cool so there you go so it's it's possible to do what you're
223. 36:31talking about you can kind of do it in mid-journey you can kind of do it in stable Fusion you can kind of do it in
224. 36:36Photoshop all these tools are going to get much much much much much much much much more sophisticated but right now
225. 36:43we're just a little early in this process so um it's gonna be a little janky it's gonna be a little janky that's a that's
226. 36:52a technical term from the creative business when something ain't quite right it's a little janky it's a little janky all right I've toyed
227. 37:01with it a bit AI can write pretty eloquently it can um I have a large picture photo can I just start dumping them in bing and see
228. 37:11what it comes out with yeah why not yes yes you can um I mean what I what I would practice in being is practice getting it to do
229. 37:25good copy like understand how to prompt it so that it gives you the kind of copy you want or even better if you say um
230. 37:35you know you upload the photo and then you say I want you to create an ad based on the contents of this photo
231. 37:43and copy the style and tone of this ad copy that I paste in here right and then you paste in some ad copy in there it'll
232. 37:51probably do that decently well I mean the nice thing about Bing is it's free and you can just keep keep playing with it
233. 37:59it's intuitive let's see do you know what would cause my desktop to not load chat EBT my iPad and phone work fine
234. 38:12I've clear cache just a blank screen try um try a different browser and also try I have this I I have cash
235. 38:24issues with some of my browsers go to your browser and say new incognito window or private window and see if it
236. 38:31does it then and if it does it then then you've got to clear your your cash clear your your cookies and your cash and all that stuff
237. 38:40um it's probably a cash issue yeah that's weird that's weird is there a mid-journey for Android Android uh mid-journey you can only
238. 38:53generate mid-journey images in Discord so there's a Discord client for Android there's a Discord client for iOS there's a Discord client for
239. 39:04um desktop and there's a Discord website so you can do it in all of them but to generate mid-journey images you
240. 39:14have to go to I would like to see a cool thing okay so where I am right now is I'm at po-po.com that's this is one of the
241. 39:21sites that I say go here and check this out so at the top here you've got um the different chat GPT models but you
242. 39:29also have this explore button and create bot Poe has a lot of these things called Bots which let people create little
243. 39:37Standalone chat gpts that specialize and if you go over here the very most popular one is called mid-journey so if you go to
244. 39:47po.com mid-journey that takes you to this mid-journey bot and I can now type in uh let's see photo um of
245. 39:59fashion model in rain forest so that's a bad prompt and then it will take that and rewrite it as a better prompt specifically
246. 40:10designed for mid-journey so color photo of a fashion model in the rainforest wearing a vibrant red dress surrounded
247. 40:15by exotic plants and flowers ethereal and dreamlike Misty atmosphere this kind of Fujifilm that kind of lens
248. 40:22Tim Walker Ellen Von unworth and Peter Lindberg so I can now just copy this prompt that it wrote for me and I can pop over to Discord
249. 40:34so here we are in Discord so I'm at the this is the AI salons Discord and within here we've got a mid-journey channel
250. 40:42and so here's some of the things that people have been playing with from the summer that's that's French for Salah and the
251. 40:51way you make an image in mid-journey is is you type slash imagine and then it will pop up this thing to
252. 40:58put a prompt in and I've already got my prompt copied and so I'm just going to paste it in there and I'm going to hit return
253. 41:06and this is going to go off now and make us an image of a fashion model in a rainforest and we'll see how it does
254. 41:15mid-journey in my opinion is the best of all of the image generation tools from a quality standpoint it's stable diffusion
255. 41:23is best from a flexibility and developer Community standpoint and Adobe Firefly is the best for from a being able to use
256. 41:34the images in a commercial setting standpoint and then Dolly which is the underlying Tech behind open Ai and Bing
257. 41:43is the crappiest but you can call it from an API really easily so there you have it all right that's going
258. 41:50off and doing its thing let me see if there's any other questions in here thank you sir gonna go play with AI have
259. 41:57a great evening so long silhouettes by Chris that's awesome is it possible on GPT to drop in a pick just what I showed in
260. 42:06um Bing which is GPT you can't do that yet in chat GPT exactly wanting to change an element in a pattern oh yeah you can definitely do
261. 42:17that just do that with generative fill did I wonder why that didn't um that was weird that didn't normally
262. 42:25it will draw things it'll sort of show it developing but there's the uh there's some of the images that mid-journey created
263. 42:36of fashion model in a rainforest that's pretty damn good mid-journey's gotten so good this is version 5.2 so there you have it
264. 42:51and then if you haven't played with mid-journey there's some new features um let me go show them to you hang on
265. 43:04okay so now that this is here if you if you haven't used mid-journey before hang on come on come on uh
266. 43:19Focus come on people focus there we go all right all right so we've got our images that were created if you
267. 43:28haven't used mid Journey before you get these little things you one through four V one through four if you hit any of the
268. 43:34v's that means variations and it's it's image one two three four so um I'm just gonna hit upscale for that
269. 43:43one that one looks decent so we'll grab that one so now it's going to make a large version of this and now there's some new
270. 43:49features that we can play with in mid-journey that are actually quite exciting it's quite exciting Okay so
271. 44:00you see zoom out 2x zoom out 1.5 X custom Zoom make Square this is pan left pan right pan up pan down now the pans are really interesting so
272. 44:12what we're gonna do is we're gonna do pan right and what that's going to do is it's going to add image to the right so if I do a zoom it
273. 44:28actually just zooms out and fills all around it it's called out painting what the pan does is it actually is
274. 44:35going to move it in the direction that I want it to move and that should be doing its thing you can also hit custom Zoom
275. 44:49this is zoom two so I'm going to do Zoom 1.5 but I'm going to change the aspect ratio to 16 by 9. so I'm going to make this much wider
276. 45:03than tall so now I'm going to have two different variations of this and hopefully that'll go pretty soon so
277. 45:12anyway that's mid Journey so so you do that within Discord so whatever platform you are on do it within Discord um
278. 45:26so here are these things it's kind of building it's building you can see it's sort of blurry here you get some image here and
279. 45:33it's blurry here it's doing its thing
280. 45:47so that's mid Journey All Right Moving On um [Music] I'm gonna do another question or two oh my God if you can text off filters you
281. 46:04can ask it to generate a picture of literally anything yes exactly you can ask it to make a picture of literally anything yes
282. 46:13that's what this shit's about like and and that's the image side and then the word stuff the chat GPT stuff I'm
283. 46:19showing here is the word equivalent of that and the data equivalent of that and the programming code equivalent of that and
284. 46:28that that's that's what these tools are are think of it like a creativity amplifier where anything that you can imagine you
285. 46:40can now realize some version of it like 80 of it within seconds for a few minutes um that's awesome good awesome
286. 46:54um it's only digital disaster it is it is special uh what do you think about AI image search sites like Prime eyes seems
287. 47:03like they're very powerful but foreign I mean listen the the AI image search sites are fine I don't know that one I I
288. 47:16assume there's another one called uh Lexica where you can see the actual prompt that made up the image I think
289. 47:23that's that's good it's those sites are a very good way if you're especially if you're just getting started with um
290. 47:32especially if you're just getting started with this stuff those sites can be quite um quite powerful for helping you understand how
291. 47:40people do the prompting uh forgot about Discord yep all right thanks uh I'll try Incognito and see if
292. 47:49that works love hanging out in here lots of fun great I love that heavy mid Journey user here and always struggling
293. 47:55to get the prompt right yeah the the uh the poe uh mid-journey prompt there's another one called MJ captainpo.com MJ
294. 48:03Captain that's pretty good um I'll wait for the magic let me go see if if any of the Discord stuff turned
295. 48:10out to be magic or if it was just clip now those are pretty good here oh yeah there you are let's see come on
296. 48:25there we go um so those are the ones that I extended to the right they all look pretty good actually
297. 48:31and then this is the one that I extended out um right where she was it was a vertical photo before and like this this one's really good
298. 48:46with the with this blurred out flower in the foreground her in the background and the big creepy tree behind her pretty pretty wild stuff
299. 48:57his magic I tell you is Magic Arthur C Clarke any significantly advanced technology is indistinguishable from Magic
300. 49:07this is [ __ ] magic It's Magic I tell you it's magic it is the dashboard to turn on or off a bunch of cool settings oh wait oh oh
301. 49:21don't forget to mention the settings in mid Journey okay one is you can say um uh you can say uh Slash settings
302. 49:37and it will show you all of your different settings so you've got mid Journey one through five 5.1 5.2 raw
303. 49:47mode niji version which is like anime kind of stuff over here stylized low medium high very high public mode remix mode so there's lots
304. 49:56of different things you can do so this kind of let you know gives you hints on on what's available um you can also do slash describe I
305. 50:04think do you just describe first yeah so you can say describe and now I can go find an image let's see oh let's let's have it we'll
306. 50:18have it describe this boat one that we used um that we used in bing so there's the boat image so I said slash describe there's
307. 50:32the boat image and what it's going to do now is it's going to read that image and it's gonna come up with four different um
308. 50:42prompts that could have made that a cruise ship traveling in the sea at Sunset by paper in the style of postmodernist culture as culturalism
309. 50:53culture yeah culturism weird word um extremely detailed art and the next one is photorealistic paper cut out Cruise
310. 51:04graphics and the style of uh ivinned Earl cruise ship floating on the October so so what I can do is I can say imagine all of them
311. 51:15so it gives me four different prompts I can now say imagine all of them so now it's re-rendering four new original images
312. 51:25not based on that image but based on descriptions of the the image that it got from looking at the image
313. 51:32so so this is a way that you can get very very creative without even really having to do any prompting just go find
314. 51:39images you like have it describe what it sees and then start to modify those prompts based on the results you're getting so wild wild stuff
315. 51:52oh these look like they're going to be very cool [Music]
316. 52:13[Music] and if you notice how they're sort of they start out really blurry like very blurry and they get more and more and
317. 52:22more detailed that's the nature of how the technology works it's called diffusion so it starts as these diffused things and then it
318. 52:34gets more and more detailed it does all these different denoising passes effectively these are super cool
319. 52:44that one in the upper right is really cool I'm gonna I'm gonna upscale that one U2 is an upscale for that one this one's crazy too
320. 52:54huh well upscale four there we'll upscale three here and that one's still building
321. 53:09oh that one's interest this one says cruise with Surfers silhouette and it did a bunch of VW that's these
322. 53:17are VW buses instead of a cruise ship this one has a ship in it but these three are VW buses with a surfboard on it that's wild
323. 53:27but anyway there's your high-end art based on a description of an image that I uploaded wild right isn't it crazy are you crazy
324. 53:39it's just cuckoo I tell you it's cuckoo all right everything not blocked by filters don't
325. 53:54know what that means see you tomorrow night it's 1am I'm a dad tired thanks for everything you do I know it's I had
326. 54:01a I had a salon tonight so I'm a little crispy myself I'm gonna I'm gonna get out of here soon I'll do a couple more questions though
327. 54:08um mid-journey is up to PG-13 yeah I know it's it you can I think it's got some safety stuff in it but it it does look a little
328. 54:19it sexualizes women just because that's how the training data you know does it you can you can get around it
329. 54:27but that's a bit of a pain in the ass um PM pmis I guess it's called we'll show you any image that's been
330. 54:40linked to a website that is crawlable oh I don't know that that's AI I think that's just a search engine isn't it
331. 54:48things like lexicon are actually showing you AI generated art the implications are wide-ranging yes many many in deep
332. 54:54implications suggestion for a way to add a few big bold words within my my mid-journey prompt um just add them in there
333. 55:06or take your mid-journey prompt over to chat GPT and say fill this full of fancy words or go get some documentation for how mid-journey um
334. 55:18for the different parameters you can put in a mid-journey prompt paste that into Chachi BT and then paste
335. 55:25in your mid Journey prompt and tell it to improve it based on you know by adding some of those things up above
336. 55:33um I was gonna say but these image searches aren't well known by Joe public um do you recommend buying the annual
337. 55:43membership to any AI programs I do not because everything's changing so fast right now even though you might save the 20 you
338. 55:52might be buying a Year's worth of a service that's obsolete in two months so I would do it month by one month by month
339. 56:00I mean the only one I could potentially justify for myself would be chat.openai.com the the top one right there but but even that like
340. 56:12Google at some point is going to have some competitor to gpt4 that's going to be good um anthropic's gonna have something
341. 56:21that's going to rival it pretty soon um I would be really surprised if meta didn't get their [ __ ] together pretty
342. 56:27soon so it's just there's just too much moving too fast right now that for me to put an annual bet on almost anything um
343. 56:43I see a lot of people doing kids coloring books yep with numbered sections yep saves money and they're selling them
344. 56:51I was saying that mid-journey will do anything but filters block a lot oh I see yeah well and if you want to if if
345. 56:57the filters are driving you crazy on mid-journey because of the safety stuff go start playing with stable diffusion
346. 57:02it's there's open source and there's a massive developer Community there go to the subreddits uh the stable diffusion
347. 57:09subreddits and start geeking out on stable diffusion and you can go do all the adult content you want
348. 57:15would love to see mid-journey hooked up to chat gbt it will be it'll get there thanks again you're welcome ha you can
349. 57:24have one AI improve the work of another you can and that's going to increasingly be what happens um listen everybody thanks for hanging
350. 57:33out with me I just did a short little session tonight I gotta go it's late it's 11 12 here in Denver Colorado uh but ready
351. 57:42um the first three will let you play with chat GPT the prompts dot thing will teach you about prompting and then
352. 57:48futurepedia.io is just a big directory of lots of AI tools so if you want to geek out and run down down some rabbit
353. 57:54holes do it there thanks everybody peace out
