I haven't got access to DALL-E 2, but I did give Midjourney ( https://www.midjourney.com/ ) a go. I found it really cool it created images that somewhat resembled my prompt, but I still felt it was way off what I really wanted. Maybe I didn't word the prompt correctly, maybe I didn't give it enough tries. Either way, I feel like we'll eventually move away from generic prompts to something that'll look a lot like...pr…

I really enjoy Midjourney for more abstract and vague vibe art. It's not as good at specific stuff (although Imagen/Parti are much better at it even than Dall-E too, which has its own shortcoming around text and numbers). My favorite is coming up with two word prompts, like "endless beginnings" or "stressful shapes" or "happy anxiety".

Honestly, I have a great use case for it currently, but then I realized it can only do square pictures, when I really want something that is much wider than it is tall.

Try MidJourney; 25 free images i think, any aspect ratio

How so? It’s a cool thing that creates cool things. How does “maybe something else was their first” effect that at all? DALL-E had a million things that had to be there first before it could do its magic. How does that fact take away from the excitement of the new realm of capability we have access to today?

Because only a certain few folks have access to DALL-E 2. I haven't got the invite and every day the ideas I was going to run with are already being done by others. Sure you can still do it, but it's not the same as a frontier where you can get the high, success, cash and fame out of a lot of easy ideas by being the first to do them. Eventually it's just a tool and you find a harder and more obscure niche to fill wit…

How long did it take for you to generate your images? I've been using https://www.craiyon.com/ for fun but the wait times always results in me getting distracted elsewhere.

I've been using Midjourney [1] (it's not free, 25 photos demo, then 10$ for ~200 photos or 30$ for unlimited I think?). It's fairly fast, ~20s for a grid of 4, then as much for upscaling. I like the controls, it lets you do variations and tweak the image as you go. It's not as good for doing concrete asks, but it's very good for getting specific vibes. The website feed [1] requires Discord login to view examples, but…
