DALL-E 2 is stunningly better than DALL-E 1, but what's interesting (and underappreciated) is the fact that the newer model is much smaller & amount of training compute is similar. Improvements are essentially all due to algorithmic innovation.

I wonder if you guys are planning to release—or make available somehow—the CLIP model. I know there's a "baby" version of the model (which I'm using) and it's darn good, so I can only imagine how much better the full version is.

Google just released imagen. Which is better in your opinion @then_there_was

hell yeah. and with all those savings you could make an even bigger model

what are the algorithmic improvements?

Fascinating. Can you share some of the more significant changes?

What’s really interesting is that DALL-E 2 came only one year after v1. Considering it’s already as good as some of the best human artists (and even better in some respects), it’s hard to imagine what v3 or even v4 look like.

Exciting stuff!! Just filed for the Dall-E access. Thrilled to try it out! 🙌🙏

Have you changed your mind on AGI being a function of compute vs a special alg we haven't found?
