🔮 Stories of the Future

Over the past months, a big part of our team has been losing their mind over Text-to-Image AI and the consequences that this technology can bring.

Especially our CEO Misch had a number of sleepless nights, generated thousands of images, and went once again down the research & development rabbit hole to learn everything he could about this year's most important consumer technology 🦾

And lucky for you, he put it all in one - admittedly long - article.
⚠️ MUST READ FOR EVERY HUMAN ⚠️

🤖 Dall-E & co - different AIs, different results

Dall-E is the talk of the town, but there are other big players out there who continue to amaze us. Each AI has its own strengths and weaknesses and sometimes completely different styles and approaches. But what are the differences? 

Let Joao take you into the world of AIs and image generation 👇

💬 How to contact Meta Business Support

Sooner or later, you will need Meta Business Support. When that time comes, get back to this article and find out how you can best approach it. Keep in mind, however, that this article is intended for professional users only, and not for personal account problems 🤓

This article is a remake of our most read article from 2019. Seems like some of you have had some issues in the past with Facebook? 😡

all things AI

🔍 Lexica: The Stable Diffusion search engine

Actually, there is not very much to say here. Lexica.art is one of the first publicly Stable Diffusion image libraries that allow you to search all generated images. Have fun browsing and getting inspired 😍

If you want to learn more about pages like Lexica or Krea, check out our video about AI stock image websites.

Oh, and by the way: RIP conventional stock images websites ⚰️

⚰️ Google search is dead. And we killed her

Twitter thread on how we killed the "old known" Google image search. When we use Google to search for images, we either want to steal a JPEG of an object or learn about an unknown object 🧵

Both will now become infinitely more powerful and replaced by AI image generation!

social media & marketing

🖼️ Meta lets you post your NFTs on FB & IG

To be honest, we haven't come across any NFT placements on Instagram or Facebook yet. However, this feature is supposed to be live and activated in more and more regions 🤔

How useful the whole thing will be, we can only guess at this point. It will certainly help artists to be seen, but beyond that, there won't be much utility to be found for the time being.

💰 Adobe has agreed to acquire Figma for $20 billion

As a company that uses Figma on a daily basis, this news has left us a little unsettled and worried. And the majority of users on all social media platforms felt the same, apparently.
 
The outcry was huge because everyone feared that the design tool will now be paid only, or at least be made worse by Adobe updates. Let's hope that neither of these will come to pass 🙏
