  • Well, for this specific picture, it was for a D&D campaign. This was the prompt I fed the computer:

    Within the dimly lit chamber of the Tower of Sorrows, shadows twist and writhe, seemingly alive. The air is heavy with an otherworldly stillness, broken only by the echoing sounds of combat and the flickering of arcane energies

    I have messed around with various prompting methods, but only two things truly matter. Subject & Theme. If you look at my previous prompt, I provide a Theme through various elements such as the lighting, the location, and the types of words used to describe the scene. From my test, I assume it takes these themes as a framework and then applies them to a subject element, in this case, “The Tower of Sorrow”

    I have also found that trying differing prompts is far better than making the picture attuned to specific elements forcibly. One such example is forcing an image by giving it another image and asking it to manipulate it. Such as taking a picture of a baby and saying, “Make this picture, baby Yoda.” Although the results are intriguing and close, I feel that not giving the computer the appropriate theme or atmosphere creates complications for the AI to focus on, and from that, begins to blur unfounded elements into the picture. All in all, build a methodology you like and stick with the framing. That being said, it never hurts to throw random words in and see what kind of beauty comes out!










  • I don’t understand why the CEO thinks this is some 4D business move. This is not the first time most of us have transitioned like this regarding social outlets. There must be records and archives proving that it is unwise to treat a community as negatively as it has … because it’s too easy for internet folk to just up and move to a new place of interest. Time is wrought with soo many examples:

    For those of you who are ancient, there were the bad days of AOL and Yahoo, and then time moved on with ideas like social networks and board systems like 4chan. But how did they not know? Just look at what is in store for future Reddit by heading to the front page of Digg.

    For one, I mean, look at this sad, sad, sad thing! Further, have you wandered to see Myspace… not sure who that audience is, but hey, to each their own. Hell, I can assure you that most of us only keep FB to keep some contact with family and old friends. I suppose the root of what I am saying is
