Transcript context

…Yeah, that's kind of what we did up here with the stopwatches. The fact that we could get multiple prompts going at the same time and like arrange them spatially. People have done this also with imagery to say, OK, well, here we're going to use DALI. We're going to kind of like make a tree of prompts as you go, different iterations based on whatever. You make four iterations. You pick your favorite one. You keep going. Kind of like what you do in MidJourney. But to have that spatial and to have that like arranged on a canvas so that it actually can make sense to you and you can kind of look back and follow it, follow forward that like whiteboards, infinite canvas stuff is just really good for a lot of things. So organizing like a whole bunch of different content that is irregular or ephemeral or has a kind of like ad hoc meaning configuration, like, you know, things that are next to each other or things that are in a grid or in this case, you know, just even what we have here for what we did with the stopwatch, like there's an implicit meaning of like, OK, the source is on the left, the result is on the right and any further iterations are further on the right. Right. Like we didn't put that into a data model. We didn't structure that in any way. It doesn't actually that meaning relationship doesn't really exist in any part of the product. It just exists to us because we can make sense of it for this type of thing. Not only is it cool that now a model can make sense of it as well, but yeah, for organizing complex iterations of imagery, complex iterations of outputs, et cetera, like, yeah, the canvas is a place. I really do believe that. Yeah. I mean, that's that's that's really incredible. I think a few developers are kind of scared about, you know, how much of this their jobs this does. Obviously, there's a lot more that they can't do. Yeah. Will this take my job story is is interesting.…
