TRENDING STORY

👀 OpenAI NSFW?

OpenAI is considering allowing users to generate some NSFW content, such as erotica and nudity, through its AI models like ChatGPT and DALL-E, according to a document outlining the company's AI development guidelines. However, OpenAI has a strict ban on enabling deepfakes and will not amend this policy.

📫️ The details:

• OpenAI is exploring how to "responsibly provide the ability to generate NSFW content in age-appropriate contexts" through its API and ChatGPT

• This could include content involving sexuality or nudity that is important for creative expression

• Deepfakes and AI-generated non-consensual sexual content will be strictly prohibited

• OpenAI wants to understand user and societal expectations around AI-generated NSFW content

🧠 Our thoughts:

Can you really say responsible and AI NSFW images in the same sentence? To be honest, we don’t think you can.

MORE DEVELOPMENTS

🌟 OpenAI has released a draft "Model Spec" that outlines their approach to shaping desired behavior for their AI models like GPT-4 and ChatGPT. It details core objectives, how to handle conflicting objectives, and priorities for following instructions from different sources. The spec aims to provide transparency and invite public feedback to guide the development of future AI models.

🎹 Google is working on integrating YouTube Music with its upcoming AI assistant Gemini, allowing users to play, search, and discover music through voice commands. The extension will give Gemini access to the user's YouTube Music data like playlists and preferences to provide personalized music recommendations.

🟠 Reddit has released a new Public Content Policy that outlines how it will manage access to public content on its platform. As it seeks to increase revenue through licensing agreements with AI developers and other companies, Reddit aims to balance its desire to license its data while protecting user privacy and rights.

AI QUICK TIP

✨ Midjourney Prompting Technique

Here’s a prompt formula you can use to craft your AI images, specifically in Midjourney.

The formula is:

[Photo Type], [Subject + Action], [Environment], [Color Scheme], [Camera/Lens/Film], [Lighting], [Composition], [Additional Details], -parameters

The formula segments the creative process into specific categories: Photo Type determines the genre or style of the photograph, guiding the overall aesthetic.

Subject + Action clarifies the focal point and their activity, crucial for narrative depth.

Environment provides the backdrop, setting the scene and adding context.

Color Scheme and camera/Lens/Film selections dictate the visual tone and technical quality, affecting how the viewer perceives the image.

Further elements like Lighting and Composition are instrumental in defining the look and feel of the photo and managing how subjects and their surroundings are presented.

Additional Details offer a space for personal touches that make each image unique.

Lastly, the -parameters section allows for precise technical specifications.

Here’s what it could look like:

• Photo Type: Portrait

• Subject + Action: A young woman reading a book

• Environment: In a cozy home library

• Color Scheme: Warm tones with a focus on browns and soft yellows

• Camera/Lens/Film: Digital, 50mm lens, high-resolution

• Lighting: Natural light streaming through a window, supplemented by a soft lamp

• Composition: The woman is centered, with shelves of books blurred in the background

• Additional Details: The woman wears glasses, a comfortable sweater, and is seated in an armchair

• Parameters: --style raw

Try it out.
