The images remind me of one of my dreams where logic and reasoning are thrown out and the pure gist of the thing is taken. I wonder if it is because it is built with vector operations and calculus to determine the closest match or fuzzy matches for essentially everything it eventually determines sans cognition, things would tend to be more fuzzy or quasi-close but not quite there. Very entertaining post.
I have my own api key as well but not with DALL-E 2 access just yet but seems similar in terms of prompting text in stages to get what you want. It feels kind of like negotiating with it in some way.
A lot of dreams scenery seems to throw logic and reasoning out of the window. Even small sensory inputs can make a huge difference to a dream sequence. And in many case they don't make sense even in the context of the dream.
I haven't personally experienced any hallucinations myself, but some DALL-E images seem awfully familiar to what some people describe.
I know that comparisons between brains and machine learning (including neural networks) are superficial at best, but I still wonder if DALL-E is mimicking, in its own way, a portion of our larger brain processing 'pipeline'.
Spot on, like the more basic part of a raw dream feed without rhyme or reason. Maybe even laying the groundwork for an experience architecture's input when that day finally comes, who knows.
first thing I noticed was that it had no distinct features of a basketball. looks more like a bowling ball with the swirly things on it. Kind of adds to your dream thought.
