Included in the blog post In conversation with Microsoft Copilot (DALL-E 3)Microsoft Copilot is a chat program interfacing the Open AI DALL-E 3 for image generation. Instead of typing prompts directly, the images are created following some conversation between the user and the Copilot who will then create a prompt based on the history of interactions. One session with the Microsoft Copilot Designer lasts for 30 requests, that can be requests for images or other requests for information about various topics. Some AI suggestions appear once in a while with ideas of modifications or additions to the image. They can be interesting to start the exploration of the tool, though they can be rather repetitive and lack the creativity of the human mind. It is a better idea to look for inspiration elsewhere, for example websites with more knowledge about the topics of the image.The performance seems to decrease as the discussion gets longer. This is due to the fact that the whole chat, or at least many tokens from the previous requests, is being sent to the GPT for further processing and generating the prompt. Especially when reaching the 20th request, Copilot seems confused and omits most of the new information.Here is an example of a conversation, each comment resulted in the generation of 4 images, though only one of them was selected at the user's discretion for showing the works of the tool, to add or modify a scene after getting a first draft. If you try to replicate the conversation, you will see other images as each series is likely to start with a different seed for random number generation.draw an elephant in the savannah,can you add a lilac-breasted roller on the elephant,can you add a Masai warrior with a spear in the distance looking at the elephant,can you change the time of day to dusk,can you add a traditional Masai village in the background,can you replace the elephant by a herd of zebu,add a stunning and mystical shamaness to the image who is guiding the herd through spells,can you change the time of the day to the blue hours,add a full moon to the sky,can we move the person and the animal closer to the village with a bonfire in the center illumining the whole area,add move villagers around the bonfire including some children playing nearby,give each villager unique clothing and accessories.,can you add a mystical purple aura to the shamaness, symbolizing her spiritual energy and healing power,can you make the shamaness more prominent,can you have the villagers play drums and string instruments,can we move the scene to Peru with the warrior, the shamaness and the villagers in traditional Incan dresses from before Columbus,can you make the chakras of the shamaness glow to show her spiritual awakening,can you add some Incan temple in the background,change the time of day to the night with a beautiful crescent moon illuminating the temple and highlighting the warrior and the shamaness,give a phosphorescent shimmer to the temple,make the shamaness have a Kundalini awakening and see how the energy emerges from her head as a holographic flare aiming at the temple,change the style to a painting by Brueghel the Elder,add a llama and an alpaca to the scene and make the shamaness and warrior clothes more detailed,change the scene to a cyberpunk world,change the scene to a steampunk world,change the scene to a solarpunk world,add wind turbines in the background and put solar panels on the temple,make it during a solar eclipse, as the moon hides the sun and the protagonists are enjoying the spectacular sights and mystic lights,add some flowers with thermoluminescent glow bringing some mystic lights to the scene,transpose the whole scene to the Siberian tundra where the Yakut shamaness and the Yakut warrior are experiencing a powerful Kundalini awakening in a camp with a giant mastodon in the background,ConclusionMicrosoft Copilot provides a convenient way to create images by mean of a conversation. It has some limitations as after 15 or 20 requests the tool gets confused and forgets some of the requests. The chat functionality enables the generation of interesting images and the possibility to follow a story. On the other hand there is little control over the prompt as a lot of rework is done by the model before sending a request to the image generating algorithm. It will be interesting to compare these series with a similar conversation with Chat-GPT 4 for a more direct connection to DALL-E 3.
