Is the ”2D animation style" part you put at the beginning and then changed an attempt to see how well the AI responds to gas lighting?

My bad, I was trying the conversational aspect, but that's not an apples to apples conparison. I have put a direct one shot example in the original post as well.

I'm my test a few months ago, I found that just starting a new prompt would not clear GPT's memory about what I had asked for in previous conversations. You might be stuck with 2D animation style for a while. :)

The ChatGPT examples don't look like the new Image Gen model yet. The text on the dog collar isn't very good.

Apparently it rolls out today to Plus (which I have). I followed the "Try in ChatGPT" link at the top of the post

On mine I tried it "natively" and in DALL-E mode and the results were basically identical, I think they haven't actually rolled it out to everyone yet.

It's rolling out to everyone starting today but i'm not sure if everyone has it yet. Does it generate top down for you (picture goes from mostly blurry to clear starting from the top) like in their presentation ?

No it didn't generate like that. Thanks for clarifying. I have updated my original post.

What did the prompt look like for Leonard.ai?

I'm curious if you said 2d animation style for both or just for chatgpt.

Edit: Your second version of chatgpt doesn't say photorealistic. Can you share the Leonard.ai prompt?

Added photorealistic, which made it worse.

Leonardo prompt: A golden cocker spaniel with floppy ears and a collar that says "Sunny" on it

Model: Phoenix 1.0 Style: Pro color photography

Saying "pro color photography" to ChatGPT doesn't get it any better either unfortunately: https://chatgpt.com/share/67e2fd91-8d24-8008-b144-92c832ed0b...

Yeah, its just not good enough. The big labs are way behind what the image focused labs are putting out. Flux and Midjourney are running laps around these guys

Flux most definitely .

Midjourney hasn't been SOTA for nearly a year now. It struggles to follow even marginally complex prompts from an adherence perspective.

In all fairness you _did_ say 2D animation style

True. I had that conversation before deciding to compare to others. I have updated the post with other fairer examples. Nowhere near Leonardo Phoenix or Flux for this simple image at least.
