    If I want my images to be private for my website and other things...what happen when I stop using Midjourney private? Will my previous creations and be available in the gallery then? They provide to little information be default and I get nuts trying to understand how Discord works. Thanks for a great video though to a new subject for me. From their FAQ: "What if I don”t want my images to appear in the gallery? We are building a open-by-default community focused on collective exploration and fun. If you have a need to opt-out of this and be private-by-default you can upgrade to a $50/mo private plan at any time by typing /private or purchase a “Corporate” plan".

    Ive used Dalle just a couple of weeks now, beginners get 30 credits free. It was pretty disappointing to me, the only plus point is that it can give u photoreal stuff but human faces are mostly distorted and it is detects any gore or nsfw stuff so you have to be very careful with text prompt. I may have to try this midjourney thing since everyone is talking about on youtube these days.

    Since Dall-E 2 offers "outpainting" it lets you expand existing images to large pictures. You add overlapping fields to an existing image and Dall-E tries to continue the scene in the existing way, with further commands.

    @@Geekatplay I've never heard that about them. I think this is too far. AI anything is terrible for society. People work hard and study their whole lives to do this legitimately and someone has to develop a program that can do it all with a few word inputs? It's not impressive art if it's just some autogenerated pictures. No skills involved. No talent. Nothing. 🤷‍♀️ I just came to see how the program works after seeing someone posting "art" made with it on instagram, to make sure I knew how it worked before making a comment. I could see how people who arent willing to commit time to learn how to draw or paint (because it is a skill, which can be learned), would like to use this as a hobby, but it is nooottttttt good in the job world. Like why pay someone else when you can enter a few words and have a program do it for less? It's horrible.
