00:00 - 00:04

hey everyone here's a recap of the mid

00:01 - 00:05

Journey office hours from December 11th

00:04 - 00:07

I'll go through David's recap and then

00:05 - 00:09

I'll get to the New World building tool

00:07 - 00:12

after so the main things they're working

00:09 - 00:13

on are one the World building tool but

00:12 - 00:15

also they're planning to release

00:13 - 00:18

multiple personalization profiles

00:15 - 00:20

tomorrow as well as mood boards so that

00:18 - 00:22

should be exciting David said that

00:20 - 00:24

General personalization is better if you

00:22 - 00:26

don't have like a bucket of images to

00:24 - 00:27

reference and mood board should be

00:26 - 00:29

better if you've already collected the

00:27 - 00:31

look that you want as far as what's

00:29 - 00:32

coming after after that David said the

00:31 - 00:35

next biggest releasee is either the

00:32 - 00:38

version 7 model or the version 6 video

00:35 - 00:40

model or the batch 8 image mode but he

00:38 - 00:42

did say that the new models won't

00:40 - 00:44

release before Christmas and the batch

00:42 - 00:46

18 team needs the web team to help them

00:44 - 00:48

finish so they know what's coming they

00:46 - 00:50

just don't know what will happen first

00:48 - 00:51

David mentioned that version 7 is going

00:50 - 00:53

to have a much more advanced character

00:51 - 00:55

reference feature but also object

00:53 - 00:57

reference and he said there is a small

00:55 - 00:59

chance that they could make the model a

00:57 - 01:01

lot faster as well basically it might

00:59 - 01:03

start slow or average and then they can

01:01 - 01:05

make it faster as they move on there

01:03 - 01:08

will probably be a rating party to help

01:05 - 01:09

calibrate the version 7 model as well

01:08 - 01:11

right now there's a new round of

01:09 - 01:13

feedback going on on the mid Journey

01:11 - 01:15

website you can assign values to what

01:13 - 01:16

you think their team should prioritize

01:15 - 01:18

David said they have more secret

01:16 - 01:20

projects they're working on three to

01:18 - 01:22

four are hardware and two to three of

01:20 - 01:24

them are software he said they're trying

01:22 - 01:25

to Branch out into a full research lab

01:24 - 01:27

but they haven't announced anything yet

01:25 - 01:29

so it seems like they've been quiet but

01:27 - 01:30

it sounds like there is lots going on

01:29 - 01:32

behind the scenes

01:30 - 01:34

okay now the New World building tool I

01:32 - 01:35

believe it's called Patchwork that's

01:34 - 01:37

what it's called right now at least

01:35 - 01:39

David brought up one of the members of

01:37 - 01:40

the team his name is Max and he was

01:39 - 01:41

telling us about how they're trying to

01:40 - 01:43

build the next generation of

01:41 - 01:46

Storytelling tools what we saw today was

01:43 - 01:48

a research preview and I'm pretty sure

01:46 - 01:50

they're going to let us try it but as of

01:48 - 01:52

recording I don't have a link to it yet

01:50 - 01:54

basically it looks like a giant canvas

01:52 - 01:56

an infinite canvas and you can use this

01:54 - 01:58

large whiteboard space to create

01:56 - 02:00

different settings and characters with

01:58 - 02:02

other people I think that's my main

02:00 - 02:04

takeaway is that it is a collaborative

02:02 - 02:06

tool rather than generating in your mid

02:04 - 02:08

Journey Gallery by yourself you and

02:06 - 02:09

other people can generate on this big

02:08 - 02:11

space together one of the really cool

02:09 - 02:13

features is that there are some text

02:11 - 02:15

models built into the canvas so you can

02:13 - 02:17

write a rough synopsis of a character

02:15 - 02:19

and then have the AI fill out the rest

02:17 - 02:22

of that description you can prompt the

02:19 - 02:23

AI to generate events based on the world

02:22 - 02:25

You' created and all it's doing is

02:23 - 02:27

creating pictures but the Hope in the

02:25 - 02:29

future is that you'd be able to sort of

02:27 - 02:32

connect these different scenes together

02:29 - 02:33

in some sort of like chronological order

02:32 - 02:35

you can also create what are called

02:33 - 02:37

portals to navigate from one world to

02:35 - 02:39

the next and you can travel to public

02:37 - 02:41

worlds that other people have created

02:39 - 02:43

and just to touch on what it looks like

02:41 - 02:45

to create a new world you can basically

02:43 - 02:48

attach different style codes including

02:45 - 02:50

your own personalization code that will

02:48 - 02:52

then generate each subsequent image in

02:50 - 02:54

that style I think it all sounds pretty

02:52 - 02:56

cool I think the future of the tool

02:54 - 02:59

should be amazing but as of right now I

02:56 - 03:01

don't know it's it is what it is I'm

02:59 - 03:03

sure for collaborative projects it will

03:01 - 03:05

really help people a lot if you like the

03:03 - 03:08

art in this video here is the prompt a

03:05 - 03:11

03:08 - 03:16

special thanks to begy ow I found this

03:22 - 03:26

03:24 - 03:28

just released a free prompt pack for

03:26 - 03:30

everyone in my community the future Tech

03:28 - 03:32

Academy 27 prompts that are all in the

03:30 - 03:34

style of my personal Vibe I'll have it

03:32 - 03:36

take care and I'll see you next time

Exploring the Future: New World Building Tool and Version 7 Model

In the mid-Journey office hours recap from December 11th, David highlighted some exciting developments. The World Building Tool is a major focus, with plans for releasing personalization profiles and mood boards. These tools aim to enhance creativity and efficiency in creating diverse settings and characters. The upcoming releases include version 7 model, version 6 video model, and batch 8 image mode. David emphasized the upcoming advanced character reference features in version 7 and potential performance improvements.

Apart from these, the team is working on several secret projects, including both hardware and software innovations. There are talks about expanding into a full research lab, hinting at significant future endeavors. On the horizon is the intriguing New World Building Tool, known as Patchwork for now. This tool offers a collaborative platform on an infinite canvas, allowing multiple users to create settings and characters together. With text models integrated, users can prompt AI to generate content based on their input, fostering seamless storytelling experiences. The tool's potential in facilitating collaborative projects is promising, hinting at a bright future in creative endeavors.

As we dive into these innovative tools and models, it's evident that the realm of creativity and technology is evolving rapidly. Exciting times lie ahead as we harness these advancements to unlock new levels of artistic expression and collaboration. The journey continues, and each development brings us closer to a future where creativity knows no bounds.
