CLIP VS dalle-2-preview

We will also need two more libraries: OpenAI’s CLIP GitHub repo, enabling us to generate image features with the CLIP model, and the umap-learn library, which will let us apply a dimensionality reduction technique called Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) to those features to visualize them in 2D:

Biggest missing feature for all these self hosted photo hosting is the lack of a real search. Being able to search for things like "beach at night" is a time saver instead of browsing through hundreds or thousands of photos. There are trained neural networks out there like https://github.com/openai/CLIP which are quite good.

In computer vision, this is known as zero-shot learning, or zero-shot prediction, because the goal is to generate predictions without explicitly being given any example predictions to learn from. With the advent of high quality multimodal models like CLIP and foundation models like Segment Anything, it is now possible to generate remarkably good zero-shot predictions for a variety of computer vision tasks, including:

the first thing that comes to mind is CLIP: https://github.com/openai/CLIP

Whenever I’m working on semantic search applications that connect images and text, I start with a family of models known as contrastive language image pre-training (CLIP). These models are trained on image-text pairs to generate similar vector representations or embeddings for images and their captions, and dissimilar vectors when images are paired with other text strings. There are multiple CLIP-style models, including OpenCLIP and MetaCLIP, but for simplicity we’ll focus on the original CLIP model from OpenAI. No model is perfect, and at a fundamental level there is no right way to compare images and text, but CLIP certainly provides a good starting point.

in the modal card it says: pretrained text encoders (OpenCLIP-ViT/G and CLIP-ViT/L).

Command: "C:\StabilityMatrix\Packages\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts\python.exe" -m pip install https://github.com/openai/CLIP/archive/d50d76daa670286dd6cacf3bcd80b5e4823fc8e1.zip --prefer-binary

CLIP might work for your needs.

We believe that many decisions about our defaults and hard bounds should be made collectively, and while practical implementation is a challenge, we aim to include as many perspectives as possible. As a starting point, we’ve sought external input on our technology in the form of red teaming. We also recently began soliciting public input on AI in education (one particularly important context in which our technology is being deployed).

From this OpenAI document:

It's also of note that you can't sell a game using this method, as Dalle-2's terms of service prevent use in commercial projects. It's hard to justify rate of return considering you can only ever give it away for free, and even in that case there are some uncertain legal elements regarding copyright and the images that are used to train the dataset.

On their GitHub https://github.com/openai/dalle-2-preview/blob/main/system-card.md I can only see references to v1.

"b) Exploration of the bolded part of OpenAI's comment "Each generated image includes a signature in the lower right corner, with the goal of indicating when DALL·E 2 helped generate a certain image." (source)." (source link: https://github.com/openai/dalle-2-preview/blob/main/system-c...)

I feel the DALL-E 2 watermark signature could be a seed or something.

DALL-E's docs for example mention it can output whole copyrighted logos and characters[1] and understands it's possible to generate human faces that are bear the likeness of those in the training data. We've also seen people recently critique Stable Diffusion's output for attempting to recreate artists' signatures that came from the commercial trained data.

That said by a certain point the kinks will be ironed out and likely skirt around such issues by only incorporating/manipulating just enough to be considered fair use and creative transformation.
