Hi, this is Coco, co-founder of OpenArt.

At OpenArt, we give creators access to all the best AI image and video models. New models launch constantly, each claimed to be the best, but our users never had a reliable answer to one basic question: *Which model should I use for my specific task?*

That is why we built OpenArt Arena. The Arena evaluates models across real use cases including film, advertising, animation, motion design, image and video editing, and lip sync.

We picked the criteria for each use case based on industry feedback. Then we had professional judges do blind test of two unlabeled outputs generated from the same prompt and reference materials. From there, we rank the models.

We’re not picking one “best” AI model.

We’re helping you find the best model for the work you’re trying to do.

The Arena is here: https://openart.ai/arena. If you have any questions - or think we have made the wrong tradeoffs - we’re happy to answer.

Great question m8ven. It's actually using Seedance 2.0 behind the scene. It's essentially an agent to write scripts, create characters/scenes, create video clips and then edit them, without your manually doing these tasks at all.

To push the development of the ComfyUI ecosystem, we are hosting the first contest dedicated to ComfyUI workflows! Anyone is welcomed to participate. Why should you participate?

- We have amazing judges like Scott DetWeiler, Olivio Sarikas (if you have watched any YouTube ComfyUI tutorials, you probably have watched their videos). - All the workflows for the contest can run on OpenArt’s cloud for free (coming soon later this week). You upload a workflow and others can run directly on OpenArt without hassles. - We have amazing cash prizes - 5 categories and 3 special awards.

Check out https://contest.openart.ai/ for more details.

LoRA is one the fine-tuning methods. Compared to other methods like DreamBooth, Textual Inversion etc, it has benefits like smaller output file size, fewer training images required etc.

LoRA is particularly valuable for beginners, as it simplifies the process of adapting complex models for your specific needs without requiring extensive expertise in AI. Whether you're looking to enhance the performance of an image generation model or fine-tune a model for your specific need, LoRA can be a valuable ally in AI image generation journey.

Have you ever felt confused about the meaning of parameters such as CFG scale, seed, or negative prompt? You’ve come to the right place. In this guide, we will give you the most complete explanation of each parameter with clear examples. You might think you already know everything, but we guarantee you will learn something new. Let’s get started and unlock the full potential of Stable Diffusion with these parameters together.

This is fantastic! I know there's another platform https://openart.ai that is a search engine for dalle2 prompts. Could be a good complimentary to this.

For AI art enthusiasts out there, OpenArt (https://openart.ai) is a dedicated platform for AI art. You can browse and search millions of art pieces and their prompts, generated by Stable Diffusion, Dalle2 and Midjourney. You will never run out of prompt ideas! You can also use our powerful search functionality to improve and refine your prompts. Our search is based on image understanding so you can find related images even if the keyword is not in the prompt. Plus, you can upload your own work in our community! Build your presence early on. More social features are coming soon.

Midjourney is great. We are going to add midjourney images soon too. Stay tuned!

Join our discord server and contact the admin. We'd love to hear the possible opportunity. Thanks!

Totally agree! We hope openArt will be part of this huge revolution.

OpenArt means opening up all possibilities of art. We believe that AI and human together will do this together.

Love the ideas you mentioned! I agree that AI can help artists with scaling up.

I can imagine a future that the artist could "license" Dalle-2 to generate art in their style and they actually get some commission for it. Like the AI can work as the artist's assistant to produce art at scale while she gets benefits too if it makes sense.

This article did a pretty thorough analysis on comparison on Midjourney and Dalle2 - https://dallery.gallery/midjourney-guide-ai-art-explained/.

A quick summary: Midjourney’s images are usually more aesthetically pleasing than DALL·E, and the model is still adaptable and responsive to stylistic prompts. That makes it a great tool if you want to generate a lot of pleasant images quickly.

Dalle-2 is capable of delivering a wider range of visual styles. As a result, you’re much more likely to craft a surprising or amusing result, or create a never-before-seen image. It’s less likely the image will seem ‘AI-like’. You can also feel more confident that other users haven’t generated very similar images.

We are adding the search functionality. It will be there within 1-2 weeks :) Stay tuned! Thanks for the suggestion.

Also, this platform is relatively primitive right now, more features to come, like comments, follow and so on!

You can log in and publish a post, then it will show up in the Community tab :) Give it a try!

In the future it will also be seen under the Discovery tab and be searchable.

Did you find this on openart.ai?

wow indeed!

We hope https://openart.ai can be used by both Dalle-2 enthusiasts as well as artists to draw inspiration for amazing artwork.

Totally hear your concerns!

There's this article "I Went Viral in the Bad Way" from a write from The Atlantic - https://newsletters.theatlantic.com/galaxy-brain/62fc502abcb.... He got criticized so hard for using an AI-generated in his newsletter instead of paying an artist to do the work. People's concerns are valid and real.

Yet, we can also imagine a future that "lower-level" artistic work can be achieved by AI, like blog article thumbnails, while higher-level artistic work will be done by artists, assisted by AI. Artists can get inspiration from AI artwork and reduce some tedious parts of their workflow.

Totally agree!

+1. More upvotes please :)

Thanks!

A great summary. I do feel different prompt engines require quite different prompts to get good results. We will add stable diffusion and midjourney on openart.ai very soon too :)

As in help people get inspired how to write their prompts just like how people get inspired by home decor ideas on Pinterest :)

Thanks! :) Please help share.

Good point! We will add the "about" page. Thanks for the suggestion!

Ah got it! Thanks for sharing the reddit thread. Very helpful :)

Thanks for your thoughtful comment, akozak!

Great idea to add model provenance.

I'm not sure if Dalle-2 embeds any metadata, but openAI also has this CLIP model https://openai.com/blog/clip/ that lets you get embeddings. So we will be using this for our search functionality. It works amazingly well. Stay tuned for the search functionality. It is super powerful for prompt engineering.

Thanks for pointing out the copyright status. Most of the images in Discover are crawled on the web, and you can see all the sources under each image. However for the images that people post on our platform, we should definitely add the clarification for copyright status.
