I’m also super excited about the Dall-E development. A “graphic novel” approach sounds enticing! But I’m a painter who shows in galleries, and I have to point out one thing. The Midjourney grid in your comparison contains images that I could imagine framed on my wall. The Dall-E image looks like a silly Disney poster. From a computer science perspective, Dall-E3 might be a giant leap for mankind. From an artist’s perspective, it doesn’t look like Midjourney has anything to worry about.
Oh I couldn't agree more. I'm a huge fan of Midjourney (as evidenced by so many of my posts being about it) and think it still remains the leader in image quality and composition.
But that's exactly why I'm so excited about DALLE-3: It competes on a completely different parameter other than just "better graphics." It will probably introduce a whole new category of people to text-to-image models, who might have previously been too intimidated by the Discord interface and the need to learn "prompting" methods.
I look at it a bit like Nintendo Wii coming out. While Xbox and Playstation were competing on making increasingly realistic games using the latest graphics, Nintendo introduced a console with cartoonish, goofy-looking simple games but a whole new way to engage with them, which helped them break into demographics that never gamed previously, including older people playing with their grandkids, etc.
Both #1 and #2 are game-changers for me. DALL-E integrating into ChatGPT will make the "graphic novel" style approach to writing a lot easier, and not having to leave the app will be really beneficial and time saving to boot.
Bard being able to talk to my google stuff is <3 for my businesses.
I honestly can't wait to see just how well DALLE-3 lives up to the demo cases. If the level of prompt-accurate rendering is truly that high, it's a major paradigm shift and will take visual storytelling to the next level.
I'm happy to hear you're finding value in ChatGPT.
To some of your points:
1) "no button to copy the generated text" - there actually is one. To the right of every response, you'll see three small icons: a clipboard, a thumbs up, and a thumbs up. The thumbs let you give feedback to OpenAI about whether you found the response useful. The clipboard copies the response out so you can paste it in elsehwere. Here's how they look: https://i.imgur.com/rRHvHfo.png
2) "future version of ChatGPT will generate entire websites" - yup. We're already moving in that direction with SEO tools that claim to be able to generate articles at scale (https://www.articleforge.com/, https://seo.ai/, and many more)
3) "...millions of auto generated articles" - yup. Scams and spam have long been highlighted as some of the negative use cases for ChatGPT (https://www.theverge.com/2023/5/2/23707788/ai-spam-content-farm-misinformation-reports-newsguard). That's the sad reality of human nature. For every great use case, we'll have people using AI to supercharge whatever illegal or iffy stuff they've already been doing.
I still think articles written purely by LLMs lack the unique voice and perspective that human writers bring to the table. So I'd expect AI-only content to ultimately lose the battle for attention, no matter the scale. But that may well be proven to be a naive take with time.

Oh wow, Phil has finally joined the dark side!

Indeed. People are already experimenting with trying to rank sites in Google with AI content.
Guess we'll see how this evolves soon enough.
Remember, Phil: Power corrupts. The power of ChatGPT corrupts absolutely!
