I have access to the real DALL*E now. It is incredible

tbf it probably googled “Mitch McConnell” for that last one

Nice! How long did it take you to get the access? Can't even remember when I requested

i think a month or so?

I applied on 21 July and got the invitation on 23 August. Now I don’t know what do do with it, lol.

I've had access for a while and was cranking through making lots of nice stuff, but I've slowed down considerably now that they are charging for it. I want to preserve my remaining runs for times when inspiration strikes. However, I am expecting to have something really neat to share from this in a couple days time.

So as I said, I've built up quite a collection of AI pieces over the past year+. I decided one cool thing I could do is print some out to decorate my house, so here's the first batch

16x16 canvas prints

Midjourney’s concept of Giant Dougal leaves something to be desired

I have been enjoying midjourneys stylistic approach, but yeah don't ask it for anything sensible you'll always get people with three or four legs for some reason

i got my DallE access too, here is a fishing board game

I love how all these apps produce dream like imagery, looks fine at first glance but further inspection on lettering etc reveals that it's just incomprehensible gibberish.

loving these

Oh it's September I think I have more credits again. Woohoo

i used up my Dalle ones pretty quickly. I have unlimited for Midjourney though.

Here is a rat, kinda.

I prefer DALL-E’s pricing model to Midjourney’s - buying credits that don’t expire is much better than a monthly subscription to my mind. Plus DALLE gives you a few free ones each month.

I’ve used up almost all my trial credits with Midjourney and don’t think I’ll be subscribing.

Yeah the pay model makes way more sense with DallE. Have you tried the image extending generation? It's quite neat, works best when using small increments. I've been uploading my own paintings and letting it generate extra edges.

the 'remaster' option in MJ is also pretty neat:

Although it can clean up an image too much sometimes

For instance

Original:

Remastered:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FbrO3mDXwAc0GVS?format=png&name=large

The original has much more energy about it, for me.

Signed up for midjourney and wasted 40 credits because I didn't know what I was doing and redid my first prompt over and over trying to download images. Oooops.

Yeah I've played with the image extending a bit - easy to burn through credits with it. This one was extended. I had to extend it quite a lot as despite the original being DALL-E-generated, it fell foul of the 'no realistic faces in uploads' rule, which is a bit daft.

https://i.imgur.com/qk37kNd.png

And DALL-E's ban on prompts of famous people is so patchily implemented. It's stopped me doing Harry Styles and Boris Johnson, but its list of famous people must be very short as there are plenty of others it has let through. But as someone said, MJ is generally better for pop culture stuff.

When I say I had to extend it quite a lot, I mean that if the 'generation frame' covered the original face it had generated, it blocked me from doing it on the no-realistic face uploads rule.

There's also another one to try: https://beta.dreamstudio.ai/dream

On the less grotesque end of things, I quite liked this pair I produced yesterday:

Prompt was just "a beautiful woman in a white dress whispers to a man who is sad inside, digital art"

I love how all these apps produce dream like imagery, looks fine at first glance but further inspection on lettering etc reveals that it's just incomprehensible gibberish.

Yeah I quite enjoy that aesthetic.

That's using the expansion on a terrible 'rock stars in heaven' pic.

Some of these are remarkable.

Another fun uncanny gibberish one

https://i.imgur.com/FYw1TtM.jpg

oh my, was that rock stars extending to the left too?

I still think this is my favourite production so far

silly question, course it was. That's amazing

is that supposed to be george w bush, because that's who first came to mind. W staring into the evil heart of the hellscape that is his party and career

I'll leave it open to guesses then, nope to Bush

David Lynch?

aye
