I\u2019ve been experimenting with AI, and having considerable success. In previous blogs I wrote about my tremendous success with ChatGPT, with which I was able to convert printed text into editable text for a book I was trying to re-publish to get it back \u201cin print.\u201d Every other technique I used failed, and I had more or less given up until the AI engine helped me to succeed on that project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
This is my Giraffe in a Jacket generated by Adobe\u2019s AI Generative Workspace. I didn\u2019t ask for the jacket, but the AI engine persisted in providing warm jackets to all of the giraffes it created.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I found myself recently needing an image of a giraffe. I turned to Adobe\u2019s Generative tools to get an image for this project. I needed a tall rectangular image of an entire giraffe standing. I did not want any background. I started with the following prompt:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please render a full body image of a giraffe, standing facing the viewer, no background. The giraffe is standing in a field.<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As with many of my previous experiences with AI engines (all of them), the engine mostly ignored the key points of my prompt, and rendered a shoulders-up image of a giraffe. It\u2019s a nice image; I was partially successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second image is about the same: shoulders-up, giraffe facing the viewer. But on this giraffe there is a men\u2019s jacket! I thought this was pretty funny. Abercrombie and Giraffe?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adobe suggests that we make successive generations of images in their workspace. I tried several times without changing the prompt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After five tries, Adobe gave me about half a giraffe, stopping mid-body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
This is better! The jacket is gone, and I have much more of the animal.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After six tries, the Adobe engine gave me a full-body image of a giraffe, standing in a field. This set had no jackets. On the sixth iteration I got what I wanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Finally! I got the whole giraffe.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Where did it come up with the \u201cidea\u201d of a giraffe wearing a jacket? Does AI have a sense of humor? Was it being cheeky on purpose? Did some part of the AI system \u201cthink\u201d that I wanted a giraffe wearing a nice leather jacket? A cotton jacket? A safari jacket (how ironic!)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I played along, generating over and over, eventually getting a perfect image in the right arrangement for my project. I\u2019m impressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, I am also amused by the absurdity of my rather large collection of giraffes in safari jackets. Perhaps I should start a mail-order business to provide these nice coats to the giraffes of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Here are 15 of the Ai engine\u2019s attempts to respond to my prompt. It looks like a catalog of Giraffe jackets. The latest fashion on the savannah! I kept reminding myself that I never asked for a jacket.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I have also been experimenting with AI in Adobe\u2019s AI and trying to determine if applying a larger color profile when opening the image in Camera Raw might increase the color volume of the images created by AI. I\u2019ll write that blog next. Be sure to check in later for that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
