[mathsuggestions]

Make some more jokes about the math terms starting with homo- and trans-.

[lisastudiesmaths]

...a transitive relation?

[wagahai-da]

all quiet in a western font

[wagahai-da]

loving all the pain and resignation this is causing, judging from the notes

[not-terezi-pyrope]

I don't think that making or using AI art/image generation is morally wrong, as you guys know, but I have to admit that slotting a wibbly-lined low effort image selected from the first result set from Midjourney in your content is incredibly tacky. At least select something that looks good. Maybe something without the boring AI "sheen" look either.

You see this a lot in clickbaity content like web spam and youtube shorts attempting to algorithm game.

[deepdreamnights]

Some quick tips for peeps using MJ that don't want it to look like everyone else using MJ.

1. The Ultra Stylish All Dress Alike

First, adjust your style setting (--s (number)). This is how much of the Midjourney 'secret sauce' is added. The lower this number, the closer to your prompt the style will be, at a cost of coherence and 'prettiness'.

Same prompt, same seed, style 500 on the left, style 25 (my preferred setting) on the right. The differences in lighting, pose, skin reflectivity, etc are apparent. You can think of it as a "de-instagram" setting.

3. Use your Variations

"A dinosaur astronaut", original gen, vary (subtle) and Vary (strong) results

If you get something you like for an initial result, the first thing I tend to do is immediately to a Vary (Strong) on it. The results are usually better than the original one because you're essentially re-running the initial prompt with the first result as an additional image prompt, reinforcing the subject.

Using subtle variations to get closer to what you want is one of the big features of MJ, and it's sorely underused.

I recommend setting to low variation mode so your normal variations are subtle ones, and putting on remix mode. Remix mode prompts you to change the prompt every time you do a variation. If you're close but something's not right, that's an easy way to go.

Changing prompts is especially useful if combined with Vary (Region). Basically, if you like everything about a pic but some select details, you can highlight an area and have the system produce new variations just changing that region. It's obvious use is fixing generation errors, but by changing the prompt, you can get results that the robot can't imagine as a solo prompt.

3. Get Weird With It

--weird is a highly unused setting. It's also very powerful, while it goes up to 1000, I tend to not go above 1-5.

A cartoon penguin made of knives at 0 weird, 1 weird, and 50 weird:

Near as I can tell, weird restricts the 'does this make sense' checks, allowing for more out-there results, both in terms of style and subject matter. At the very low levels (1-5) it increases prompt adherence, at higher levels it reduces it substantially.

4. Prompt Big and Blend your Concepts

MJ deals with short prompts by filling in its own leanings where there's gaps, so short prompts look the most midjourney-esq while longer ones (especially when combined with --weird or a low --s value) fight back against it more.

When prompting for art styles, prompting for multiple art styles/artists at once produces weird hybrids. Prompting an artist with the wrong medium (A painting by a sculptor, a drawing by a cinematographer, etc) also can produce new, strange results.

(Lisa Frank/H.R. Giger style mashup using :: technique (below))

But the real trick is in "prompt smashing" or multi-prompting. Basically, midjourney uses :: to split prompts. Intended function is to allow you to add individual weights to each section, if you want something strongly emphasized.

But in practice, it blends the concepts of the two prompts to create a new, third thing.

As above with "an illustration of an armored dinosaur in the woods, in the style of vibrant comics, toycore, ps1 graphics, national geographic photo, majestic elephants, exotic, action painter" then "daft punk & particle party daft punk world tour, in the style of romina ressia, polished craftsmanship, minimalistic metal sculptures, ultra hd, mark seliger, installation-based, quadratura" and then the two prompts run together separated by ::.

Each one was also iterated to produce a better result than the initial gen.

5. Just edit the darn thing.

Learning to edit your works outside of the AI system will always improve your work beyond what the machine itself can do. Whether it's just the simple matter of doing color adjustment/correction:

Or more heavy compositing and re-editing combined with other techniques:

Editing and compositing your gens is always superior to just posting them raw, even if its just a little cropping to get the figure slightly off-center or compiling 20ish individual gens into a single comic-style battle scene before recoloring it from scratch.

But at the very least, before you post, go over the image and make sure there's nothing glaring.

[philippesaner]

This is really remarkable. I was literally just talking about how AI isn't good enough for comic art, and then immediately I see...a pretty good mini-comic, apparently made with AI!

(It's not the first AI-illustrated comic I've seen, but it's the first where I thought the art was any good.)

I guess @deepdreamnights is just really damn good at this.

If you (or another skilled AI wrangler) wanted to, do you think it would be feasible to make a whole long-running comic that way? If so, would it represent a significant time savings compared to just drawing the thing normally?

[therobotmonster]

First off, thank you!

I can generally put together a page and a half a day this way, depending on how tricky the composition is and how devoted to it I am at the moment. Basically even-stevens with a lot of hand-drawn work, but with a mix of advantages and disadvantages.

I tend to make the process harder on myself than it needs to be.

This is partially because the datasets trend to the modern and my insistence on the look of the 60s, 70s or 80s for any given project means I'm doing a lot of reworks and tinkering. The dinosaur and battle-animal-style furry characters are harder to keep consistent than human characters, etc.

Part of it is I'm always trying to squeeze maximum results out of the tech, so every time there's a new version, my ambitions seem to inflate to match, keeping my general time-investment steady.

Human characters and more modern styles come easier to the generators, so if you're dealing with easily promptable set of character features, or ones that MJ's character reference system can make sense of, you'd probably have a much faster time producing usable raws for compositing. And fixing hairstyles and shirt-cuffs tends to be easier than fixing tusks and horns.

The areas that are difficult are things like fighting (less of a problem with stable diffusion, there's a little Cotton Mather in the major service-driven ones that imposes rules stricter than Y-7 cartoons). For Mrs. Nice kicking Wally into the time hole (as an example):

Mrs. Nice is kicking a punching bag, and Wally is slipping on the floor. The background was cobbled together from several chunks so the cave environment would be consistent.

Sometimes you have to prompt indirectly or use placeholder props to get the kinds of actions you want. It might not understand a sci-fi brainwashing chair, but it can do an electric chair made of futuristic metal. "Octopus tentacles for hair" makes hairy tentacles, so you put "tentacles coming out of her head." They aren't frozen in a block of ice, they're in a glass box that is covered in frost. That sort of thing.

It doesn't make a huge difference for my workflow, because I tend to composite characters from multiple gens in most situations. I find it, counterintuitively, makes for less stiff compositions.

The fauxtalgia-comics look, however, is just one option in hojillions. Because my techniques work on any style of art you want to use. The photoshoppery just gets more complicated for stuff that's painterly, pseudo-photocomic-y, or other.

I consider myself a nostalgia-artist (not a nostalgic artist, though I am often that. I try to make nostalgia my medium). I've got a whole deal about it, I'll get into it on its own post sometime.

But experimental and hybrid styles can produce some wild stuff, and I'm certain experimental forms are going to benefit from it.

[philippesaner]

Very interesting, thanks for the run-down.

Part of me is happy to see that, even with this incredible technology, producing work deserving of an audience still depends on skill and effort. Another part of me wishes comics were easier, though. Don't know which part's bigger.

[deepdreamnights]

Depends on what you mean by easier.

If your skill set is photoshop, you're essentially transferring more of the process of comic making into that skill's purview. And there's a lot free ai utilities for background removal and the like that can speed up the grunt work in that process.

If you wanted to make a comic in this way, the best thing you can do is just start making comics with this technique and then adapt the technique to what you learn and what you find works for you. If it takes longer than you expect at first that's fine. As you improve your speed will improve along with your technique.

I've even used the technique pre-generative AI by utilizing public domain comics and other PD art resources.

A loanword is a word taken from another language, such as ‘angst’ or ‘tsunami’ or ‘calque’. A calque is a literal translation of a word from another language, such as rhinestone (from French caillou du Rhine) or blueblood (from Spanish sangre azul) or loanword (from German lehnwort).

[max1461]

@triviallytrue asked "what's Chomsky's deal?"

Put briefly, the initial thing that made Chomsky famous is that he argued, and managed to convince everyone, that B. F. Skinner was wrong about language acquisition. B. F. Skinner believed that kids acquired language because when they made grammatically well-formed sentences they got positive feedback and when they made grammatically ill-formed sentences they got negative feedback, and by operant conditioning they learned how to speak. Chomsky was basically like "wait. That's not fucking true", and he was right, it isn't. His argument is usually called the Poverty of Stimulus argument, which has been used to justify many dubious conclusions since then, but which basically says that kids are not getting nearly enough actual input of the appropriate types for them to learn language this way.

Chomsky was also interested in modeling the computational properties of language, and that's where the Chomsky hierarchy comes from. The idea is to find a formalism (for syntax, for phonology, whatever) capable of generating all and only those sentences in fact found in natural language. So this formalism would have various parameters that you could set to specify the syntax of an individual language, and then it would have an input lexicon (the vocabulary of that language), and then it would spit out exactly the set of grammatically valid sentences in that language. This approach is generally called (lowercase-g) generative linguistics. It has been a very productive good idea which runs into certain empirical hurdles that Chomsky was not prepared to solve.

Chomsky is interested in this generative approach not because he really wants to model natural language as an observed phenomenon, but because he believes, more or less, that when an appropriate formalism is found it will be reflective of the innate cognitive processes which give rise to natural language in the first place. These processes are generally called Universal Grammar or UG, or sometimes "the language organ". Chomsky's beliefs here are technically more nuanced than this but not in a useful way. His claim about this is basically a deepity, which he and his acolytes try to pass off as actual science with a bunch of philosophical mumbo-jumbo. Every Chomsky paper starts with like fifteen pages on the history of science and Newton and Kepler and blah blah before he makes his various unfalsifiable claims.

The overall upshot, in my view, is that Chomsky had a lot of really important ideas about human language that he simply was ultimately not prepared to follow up on. His work, especially his early work, has reshaped the entire field of linguistics and lead to a series of extremely productive research programs. On the other hand you should not take most of what he's said in the last 40 years too seriously.

[dreadwedge]

the truth is, a year actually has 730 days, not just the 365 they tell you about. for each and every day in each and every year, there actually exists a secret anti-day, a perverse reflection of the original. they sneak it into the calendar when you aren't looking. it passes in what feels like an instant, and slips out the door before you realize any time has passed at all. but if you keep your eyes open long enough you start to see the patterns. you start feel the weight of the hours passing. the chill that travels up your spine as you walk in the aberrant light cast by the pallid shadow-sun. strange, unfamiliar creatures prowl the streets during the anti-year, hiding between our days like ghosts between hazy memories. this is called "night"

[cute-pluto]

theres a popular brand in canada called no name brand and it manufactures everything you can imagine in a grocery store and it kind of makes me feel like im in a world no one bothered to do much world building for

[todaysbird]

as a huge lover of birds, 90% of the concern against wind turbines being used for energy is literally just pro fossil fuel propaganda. birds ARE at a risk however there is a lot of strategies even as simple as painting one of the blades that reduces a lot of accidental deaths. additionally renewable energy sources will do more in favor of the environment that would positively impact birds (and all of us). one study found over one million bird deaths from wind turbines. while that is a shockingly high number and we should work to drastically shrink it, at least 1.3 billion birds die to outdoor cats on a yearly basis. it was never about caring about birds

[wrentit]

there was a study done in 2015 that shows an even greater possible yearly divide than the 2012 one

[foone]

This is why we need to keep cats indoors and switch to linux.

[spectrallysequenced]

Would people be interested in a video course on noncommutative algebra? The prerequisite knowledge would be linear algebra, basic group module theory and in the end some knowledge of Galois theory. Topics I might teach would include: Jacobson Radical Theory Central Simple Algebras Wedderburn-Artin and Wedderburn-Mal'tsev The Double Centraliser Theorem Noether-Skolem Theorem Brauer group Theory Crossed Products and Galois Theory Group Cohomology, briefly, and connection with the Brauer Group Further topics to be decided (Maybe Morita Theory, or more Brauer Theory).

[spectrallysequenced]

Ok well let me give you a small taste and teach you something I learned recently (that would maybe come towards the end of the course). I'm usually not a big geometry fan, but the connection here is really nice, so sit down and let me tell you about quaternion algebras and conics.

Prerequisites: Linear Algebra, some basic knowledge of field extensions, (recommended) Galois Theory

I have yet to find a good way to type in latex with formatting on tumblr, and I started this blog post on overleaf, so unfortunately I am going to be screenshotting a pdf for you. The full pdf is for download at the end of the post. Enjoy

And here is the link to download the pdf:

i think the university protests in the US have shifted the conversation a little bit towards BDS re: israel stuff which i think is good. like. i think its a significant fact that 1) israel does crazy human rights violations constantly, and 2) is mostly treated like an upstanding member of the internationla community, especially economically. like it should be bad optics to do israel stuff in the same way it was bad optics to do south africa stuff in the 90s

[lisastudiesmaths]

Why in the 90s? Apartheid was beginning to end in 1990, and by 1994 South Africa was a somewhat democratic country.
