Prompt:
open source, federated software connecting free people across the globe, without commercial interest --q 2 --v 5.1
I guess we’re mostly ocean-dwelling creatures.
That is such a badass photo, I could totally see that as the logo for the Fediverse.
Wow this is exactly like the stock images of the internet as a whole 20-30 years ago. Amazing how time is a circle, hope federated stuff doesn’t get enshittified in the same way the normal internet did
Beautiful! Lovely textures and colours on the earth as well.
Just a question: Do you think the term ‘free people’ had an impact of the parts of the earth that were chosen to be displayed?
That’s a very interesting question! I ran two alternative versions of the prompt. The first one only includes “people”, the second one says “all people”. Here are the results:
open source, federated software connecting people across the globe, without commercial interest --q 2 --v 5.1
open source, federated software connecting all people across the globe, without commercial interest --q 2 --v 5.1
Then I re-ran my original prompt to get 4 versions for a better comparison:
Maybe there is a slight bias toward showing America or Europe if the word “free” is in the prompt, but I would need to run many more experiments to get a representative result.
The “without commercial interest” seems to push it into commercial territory. These, including the original, look like corporate filler posters to me.
