What is Dall-E? (in about a minute)
Science & Technology
Introduction
While other AI models generate text, Dall-E is all about images. One of OpenAI's budding AI technologies, Dall-E is a natural language tool that can create different forms of visual content including music videos, memes, advertisements, and more, from a text prompt. For example, a user can type in "cat driving a car" and Dall-E will respond with an image. You can even specify the type of image you want, whether it be a realistic photo or an abstract painting.
Dall-E was built with GPT-3, a large language model, and a transformer neural network. Dall-E processes images and text through the Transformer, making connections between different concepts to ultimately create an image from scratch.
Dall-E is an exciting tool, but there are downsides to consider. For one, some have raised questions about potential misuses of Dall-E, such as creating violent or inappropriate content. At the same time, creative professionals have shown concern over the program's potential to replace them. Like most chatbots, Dall-E is in its early stages, so there is still more to be learned about its potential uses and misuses. In the meantime, the program is publicly available for both business and leisure purposes.
