My wife pointed out that most of my shirts predate the pandemic, and it was time to shop for something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not something I enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, like most things I don’t enjoy, I decided to try and delegate it to AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started playing around with image generators. I used the prompt “Full body image of a 50 year old male startup CEO”. We have an internal tool at Glowforge<\/a> that lets us generate images from any and all image LLMs in a single go, so this was easy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

From left to right that’s Chatgpt, Chatgpt mini, Seedream, Reve, Ideogram, Flux Kontext Max, Imagen 4 Ultra, Imagen 4, Qwen, Nano Banana, Flux Schnell, Recraft, Flux 1.1 Pro, Flux 1.1 Pro Ultra, Imagen 4 Fast, and another Chatgpt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They definitely had a type. (Even the chinese models made white dudes)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any case, none of this really spoke to me. Then I thought about Sora, and how impressive it is at both visuals and at finding things that work together. I thought it might have more success. So I gave it a try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

@seadan showing off his wardrobe of clothes appropriate for a tech CEO. Fast cuts with many different looks.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

That was the whole prompt – all the posing, dialogue, and the actual fashion choices are Sora’s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Put together an outfit for me by choosing appropriate clothes and adding them to the site’s shopping cart. Then make a video of me wearing the clothes on sora.com. To do this, upload pictures of the clothes, and use “@seadan” (my handle) in the prompt.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It spent half an hour and had me log into Sora… and then it was done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I guess we have a ways to go before we get to AGI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
