similar work using Stable Diffusion in a Photoshop plugin: https://old.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/wyduk1/sho...

So DALL-E is already old news and the Stable Diffusion ecosystem is once again already ahead especially with this announcement. Quite funny to see OpenAI panicking and falling on their own sword, as they were supposed to be 'Open' in the first place and are now being disrupted by open source.

The only move left for OpenAI, is honour their name and make their own AI Open Source.

Why would Google hold back on releasing Imagen if there are competitors that are publicly available already?

Imagen isn't special anymore.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving group of people. Good riddance. Squatting the name "open" and trying to reap the benefits therein while being anything but.

I thought their research actually is open, at least? That's still something...

Does the new generated picture take into account of all previously generated image or just whatever is around the square, the first is amazing, the latter was a feature that was already there.

Regardless, this is a great way for people to fight the lack of detail in Dall-E which I think is one of it's largest flaw.

And every time I drag that little square reticle to fill in a 128x128 patch of an image, you can be sure it'll be a 15 second API call that I'm charged $0.25 for. Yipee! Very open.

How long until we can run this over shows like Star Trek Voyager/DS9 and Seinfeld to achieve believable 16:9 scenes?

Someone has been upscaling DS9 already[1]. Obviously not release anywhere.

Not sure I'd want them in 16:9, hd 4:3 like the other HD releases of TNG and TOS would do me. I understand they shot on video so an official true HD remaster is likely to never happen.

This was already possible with DALL-E using the inpainting feature going from defined image to transparent edge; this just automates what was a manual process before. Do wish the inpainting tool had more options, for example to fade a transparency in, since my understanding is it makes a difference; not to mention magic wand selection/deselection tool. In case it is not obvious, every time a user generates an additio…

Maybe kludge it with a dithered transparency mask?

Only matter of time before Adobe adds inpainting with hooks to local or API generative tools, using OpenAI to edit works like this is like transporting back to past using basic image editing tools.

Do you expect them to provide computing power for free?

Feels like a race to the bottom. More features, lower cost, every week. No idea where it’ll level out, but I like it. Just bought some more Dalle credits today because it’s so much fun. This is a revolution in ‘art technology’ it’s like Steve Job’s bicycle for the mind. Best I could do a month ago was a stick figure in MS Paint, but now..

It's a race to the top. New functionality is added and the model is improved week over week.

Why can't we provide it ourselves and skip the middleman?
