Hi All,
Most of you know about the sudden surge in AI applications in the last
few months. Microsoft has furnished an interface to the DALL-E image
maker through their Bing browser.
I've entered a few prompts on polyhedra and I'm trying to get it to just
make convex models. But the wording has to be just right. (I've seen
experts do prompts which can be quite long like a paragraph)
The prompt I used here was "An asymmetrical convex polyhedron with 100
planar solid plastic faces each a different color"
Well its not purely convex but it has an interesting pattern of
hexagons. I don't know if it can be all hexagons like it appears, but
perhaps the symmetry is dihedral.

There seems to be at least 100 pyramids on the front side. At the edge
you can see the arrangement looking less regular. Maybe you could ask
to see it from several angles!

It doesn't seem to know anything about geometry. The pictures it
creates are nice, but abstract. Getting a good picture is luck of
the draw.
When I reduced the prompt to 50 faces it still puts them all on the front. Its kind of literal.
Trying to use names, even simple ones wouldn't work correctly. "A Cuboctahedron made of chestnut hardwood"
Here is "A Dodecahedron display on a computer screen using Antiprism software". This is often how it draws models, sort of a webbing. When it puts words on things they are generally jibberish, but sometimes it will make them from the prompt.
Finally something with more recognizable models. This was simply "Various polyhedra models"
That's all for now.

certainly thought provoking!

I get a "What am I looking at?" reaction with all the images. They are

Most of the time I don't get any symmetry from these pictures. Over
all it seems to be luck of the draw but here is one that did. The
prompt was
An art deco Dodecahedron in lime green porcelain with chrome edges on a marble counter top. But its not even a dodecahedron lol
