How This Works?
To provide you with an idea of ChatGPT’s capabilities, imagine you want to generate an image of a French Bulldog in Midjourney, and you require an effective prompt.
You’d enter the following into ChatGPT:
"Give me an original prompt for a creative artistic image of a cute french bull dog."
And it will return you something like this:
"A whimsical, heartwarming digital painting of a French Bulldog wearing a beret and striped shirt. standina in a charmina Parisian cobblestone street. Colorful macarons and fresh croissants surround the dog, who has an adorable, mischievous grin. Inspired by the works of Mary Blair and Pascal Campion, the scene captures the essence of French culture with pastel tones and soft lighting. The illustration includes playful details like a tiny Eiffel Tower charm on the dog's collar and a bicycle with a baguette in the basket in the background. -ar 1:1 --V 5 --s 500 --g 2 --stylize 800"
