I was playing around with Bing this afternoon; that’s pretty cool technology! Had it generate a few covers based on classic series like Outrun, Sega GT, that sort of thing.
Figured I’d give a different prompt a try as well. So here’s “Retro-futuristic image of a white haired older man, dressed in a white 80’s suit and sunglasses. Stepping out of a futuristic, red Lamborghini Countach with white interior. Background is an 80’s Miami street with palm trees and art-deco buildings, sun-drenched, with neon lights on the buildings.”
That’s a vibe for sure.
I like to think I’ve got at least an impressive enough vocabulary to work with as a professional writer :D
Though it does feel weird to be that descriptive to a piece of software. It’s almost like you’re telling it a little story about the thing you saw in your head and it’s trying to literally ‘paint the picture’. Bing actually encourages you to write more in-depth prompts, and I actually ran out of space on some of them, while I definitely had potential details to share with it. I suppose that means I’m at least giving it enough to work with :D
Yes, it’s weird and so cool how being good at describing things suddenly became a good catalyst for the computer to spit out whatever pictures we have in mind.
