It's called prompt engineering, right? And I'm actually seeing quite a lot of people making fun of it. They're like, oh my god, did you hear those companies hiring prompt engineers now? I respect prompt engineering. The more time I spend with these systems, the more I'm like, no, wow, this is a deep skill. It's an almost bottomless pit of things that you can learn and tricks you can do. It's fascinating as well seeing how differently it works for different models. I find Dali really easy to use. Like, I can get amazing results out of Dali. I found stable diffusion a lot harder. And I think the reason is that Dali is built on top of GPT3, which is the largest and most impressive of the available language models. So you can say to Dali, draw me three pelicans wearing a hat sitting on top of a deck next to a big dog. And it will do it. It can follow all of those prompts and those directions. When I try stuff like that with stable diffusion, I don't really get the results that I'm looking for. Because stable diffusion doesn't have nearly as complicated language model behind it. But it means that to get good results, you have to learn different tricks. You tend to do much more sort of comma separated, this, this comma, this style, this style name of this artist. And you can get amazing results out of it that way. But it's a very different way of working to when you're working with Dali. Yeah, one concrete example there. I was trying to get very much a sci fi look out. And I couldn't quite get it to do what I wanted. And I was trying to like, I was thinking of science fiction authors. But I didn't really know any science fiction artists. Like who draws the stuff for this particular book? So I went to like William Gibson's Neuromancer. And I realized if I put Neuromancer, like a very specific style, even though that's a book, I'm sure there's art that is tagged that or something. Maybe there is an artist. But I was getting very specific William Gibson ask results all of a sudden. It's like I found a keyword or something. That's what you found a new spell, right? All of this stuff, it comes down to it. When you're working with these, you're not a program anymore. You're a wizard, right? You're a wizard. You're learning spells. I always wanted to be a wizard. We get to be wizards now. And we're learning these spells. We don't know why they work. Why does Neuromancer work? Who knows? Nobody knows. But you add it to your spell book and then you combine it with other spells. And if you're unlucky and combine them in the wrong way, you might get demons coming out at you.ERIC practice
