1/ I used DALL-E to imagine beyond this painting @OpenAI Inspired by @literallydenis #dalle #dalle2 #artificialintelligence #art
@OpenAI @literallydenis 2/ Something that AI headlines don't always capture is that as a human, you actually have a lot of artistic input in what the AI paints. The AI didn't draw all this automatically - I prompted it to draw certain elements
@OpenAI @literallydenis 3/ Here's a sampling of the prompts I used. For each prompt, I added "painting by Johannes Vermeer" at the end for style Image
4/ I used a process called "inpainting" which allows you to modify an existing image. You can also use this feature to "extend" the canvas. I learned how to do this from @guskamp
5/ Shoutout to @literallydenis who first used DALL-E to expand famous paintings last month. I was inspired by his series and wanted to try making a video version that showed some of the variations I went through

1/ Filmmaker's guide to GEN-2

Generate videos with nothing but words
Access to GEN-2 will start rolling out this week @runwayml

I put together this guide to help with your experiments for when you play with it
#gen2
@runwayml 2/ Filmmaker's guide to GEN-2

It gets interesting when you add movement

It works best with simple movements btw, and struggles with more complex or intricate movements
@runwayml 3/ A peek behind the process

(This is beta UI, the final UI will change)

Currently it takes about 2 minutes to generate a 4 second video clip

Some of my early experiments with @runwayml GEN-1

It’s still early days of AI video - this tech will only get better. A whole new generation of filmmakers is gonna be able to make whatever they want on zero budget

See below for my process
@runwayml Early access to GEN-1 is available via waitlist here: research.runwayml.com/gen1

I'll be sharing more tutorials once access opens up to more people
@runwayml Shoutout to @DonAllenIII who majorly inspired me with his early GEN-1 tests.

He taught me the workflow of prompting with a MidJourney image - that seems to get much better results than prompting with text

Thanks to @notiansans for troubleshooting help!

Microsoft just announced its new Bing with @OpenAI integration - using a model more powerful than ChatGPT

I’m on campus right now with access. Tweet reply what you’d like to test and I’ll try your query -
Access is currently available via waitlist
I’m told it will roll out to millions of people within a few weeks

bing.com/new
Tip: try things that search engines today aren’t good at

Instead, treat it like a personal assistant, that has intelligence and can handle tasks and basic calculations

Example: “Will the IKEA Klippan loveseat fit into my 2019 Honda Odyssey if I fold down the seats?”

Using AI for design inspiration

We used Stable Diffusion Depth to Image to get the consistency - collab with @justLV

See below for our process

#ArtificialIntelligence #stablediffusion #interiordesign
@justLV Any image will work for this - you could use pictures of your real furniture too

But we thought it'd be fun to use dollhouse miniatures since they'd be easier to manipulate
