The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

So we care about a couple of things.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

One is graphic design in general.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

Again, text rendering is part of that, we think.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

Basically, graphic design is everywhere.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

You go in a city, you open your eyes, you see billboards, you see storefronts, they all have text.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

And actually, it's much more important than... I guess photography is part of graphic design, but graphic design is actually the frontier for a lot of business use cases for storytelling.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

So we definitely focused a lot on graphic design since the release of our first model, which was good at text rendering.

And in addition, we think taste is extremely important.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

And we really want our models to have taste.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

And it's very hard to explain it, what exactly taste is.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

One element of taste is kind of going outside of the norm a little bit and not conforming to the average opinion, which is a little against being on top of the leaderboard.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

Which is kind of interesting.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

Yeah, we just care about, ultimately, we work with all the arenas.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

We hope all of the arenas will improve in detecting the nuances of images and image quality.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

But we care about our own internal evaluation.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

And unfortunately, we see that AI is not very good at that.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

doing the actual taste evaluation yet.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

So we worked with designers and we have side by side comparisons between different versions of the model as well as other models to really push on the taste.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

So we really care about taste.

The a16z Show
AI, Design, and the Power of Open Models

I think there's still so much more to do, obviously.
