Steven Pope

And it was super frustrating.

And it can't necessarily just pull a random Stephen Pope photo.

So I said, okay, let me load my photo, use this, give it the same instructions.

What did it end up doing?

Then it superimposed the original dude's face over my body.

So this is how stupid AI is.

To fix the stupidity of AI, setting up the general instructions is the most important part.

And every time I hear people talk about the importance of prompt creation, my eyes glaze over.

So if that's what's going on for you right now, I get it.

But it is highly necessary.

This is a repeatable task, and it's very much worth setting up a couple of lines of generic text that you never have to do again.

And here's the proof once we finally got to that.

Design a YouTube thumbnail with first tire.

Some of these are really terrible as they are trying to be generated.

Um, and, and I had a hard time with getting it to follow instructions, but after a few rounds of this and getting the instructions correctly, uh, we were able to finally get some correctly generated ones.

Here's another one that came up with, I have no idea why it had my forehead twice or added the text master Gmail filters, but this one is also usable, not great, but usable.

And if you're looking at this video, it's because you just need usable thumbnails and that's good enough, right?

And that's really the litmus test for AI.

It's good enough.

You didn't have to pay anybody for this.
