AI teamwork: Using the output of ChatGPT to generate DALL-E 2 art.

What would happen if I chained two AIs together to work as a team? ChatGPT is a conversationAI at chat.openai.com that can generate answers to questions or produce detailed descriptions given minimal input. DALL-E 2 creates art from elaborate textual descriptions.

So I asked ChatGPT to:

Describe a business scene with people collaborating on a piece of art.

It responded with:

In a bustling art studio, a team of talented artists are collaborating on a large-scale piece of art. They are all working together, sharing ideas and techniques, and using their individual strengths to bring the piece to life. Some are sketching out rough drafts and ideas on paper, while others are working on the more technical aspects of the piece, such as adding color or texture. There is a sense of excitement and creativity in the air, as the team works together to create something truly unique and beautiful. As the piece starts to take shape, the artists share their thoughts and feedback with each other, making tweaks and adjustments along the way to ensure that the final product is exactly what they envision. In the end, the team is able to create a stunning piece of art that they are all proud of, thanks to their collaboration and dedication to the project.

I pushed this output, at least what would fit, into DALL-E 2 and it generated a few options. You can be the judge of how well these images meet the original request. With DALL-E 2, you can ask for variations of each of the original images to continue exploring for the image that fits the bill. As to “business scene” in the original request, I think the third image below come closest, although I do find the appearance of the craftsman’s apron fascinating in the second image. The implications for the future are astounding for AI as a creative tool.

Sometimes you gotta go old school

Yes, the handset works!

I forgot my high-tech Bluetooth headphones and had to reach for this handset. The sound quality is actually amazing and there is a whole additional benefit. People (at least Gen-X and boomers…and my kids!) get that I’m actually on the phone and talking to someone not in the room. Sometimes, this old tech provides the ambient information to others that is lost in our continually connected, wireless world. Combine with this with the Lightning to 3.5 mm Audio dongle from Apple, and you can use this with your iPhone, too. It works really well, can leave your phone in the pocket and people will know you are on the phone, even while walking down the street.

Looking for your headphones, but they are too tiny to find? This big handset is much harder to lose under the bed, in the covers, or under the car seat.

If you are looking for that On-Air indicator or looking for a way to notify others and let them know you are on a call or on the phone, I highly recommend picking up one of these today!
