Mid-Journey's "Describe" Command: Your Creative Sidekick
Today, I want to chat about something that's been making waves in the Gen-AI space for a while now - the "Describe" command in Mid-Journey. If you haven't tried it yet, you're missing out on some serious fun.
So, What's the "Describe" Command?
Well, it's this super cool feature in Mid-Journey that lets you upload an image, and then it gives you a description of it. But here's the kicker - it's not just a boring simple description. It's a set of creative prompts that you can use to whip up some new images based on the original one.
Think about it. You upload a picture of a sunset, and the software spits out prompts like "a sunset that looks like a fruit salad explosion" or "a city skyline playing peek-a-boo with the setting sun." You can then use these prompts to create some seriously unique images. I find it a very easy way to come up with some nice creative prompts, without heaving to come up with the concept myself.
How does it work?
It's a piece of cake. You open up a discord chat with Mid-Journey connected. Just type the command /describe. It will then ask you to upload an image (as in the image above). After a moment of loading, the software gives you four different prompts based on what's in the image. You can then use these prompts to create new images. Each one is a different take on the original image.
For instance, if you upload an image of a world map with email icons, the software might give you prompts like "email marketing on a world map with a retro vibe" or "a techy take on a traditional world map." You can then pick any of these prompts to create a new image.
Why the "Describe" Command Rocks
Okay, it's not always spot-on, but it's usually pretty close and always interesting. The "Describe" command is like having a brainstorming buddy, helping you see and interpret images in ways you might not have thought of.
And the best part? You're not stuck with the prompts the software gives you. You can tweak them to better fit what you're going for, adding your own creative flair. This makes the "Describe" command a killer tool for artists, designers, and anyone looking to flex their creative muscles.
What's Next for the "Describe" Command?
The "Describe" command has been around for a few months now, and it's only getting better. As more people use it and share their feedback, the software is becoming more accurate and versatile.
This is just the start. The "Describe" command is a shining example of how AI can jazz up the creative process, and I'm stoked to see where it goes from here.
