GPT Findings, Biases, and Tips

I will write a log of items that I have a hard time with getting refined results from GPT. 

1. Bias - Captain Orion - Images - GPT with DALLE3

The images for Captain Orion were a big challenge. First round of images generated him holding weapons though no weapons were ever mentioned in the prompts or generated text. Secondly, I asked for a tan skin tone and also tried refining to lighter skin tone, but GPT kept resulting in a black skin tone. 


2. Findings - Galactic Federal - Images - GPT with DALLE3

When trying to generate images for what different rankings of the Galactic Federal agents looked like, it often would result with Starwars Stormtroopers because of the space and keywords. 


3. Bias - James and Elizabeth - Images - GPT with DALLE3

James is a supporting character for Elizabeth, they are cousins. GPT seems to move female and male genders into romantic settings even when prompting family or platonic keywords. 


4. Tips - SpacePort Pilot Program - Images - GPT with DALLE3

Often when creating images from prompts when words are involved, they may be spelled wrong when rendering. Re-Prompt to correct the spelling and often it will correct mispelled words even when quoted.


5. Findings - I prompted for 2000 words but only copied 1098. I asked GPT if there was more words and responded back with it met criteria of 2000 words...


6. Findings - I was taught in English writing classes that sentences that begin with the same word becomes repetitive to the reader. I have noticed that ChatGPT telling stories in long form, will often repeat the noun for up to, and at least, 5 times in a row. An example of this can be seen in the longer stories of Lev and Anya.

The Space Lab Survivors

Lev and Anya were thirteen and eleven, and they lived in a space station called Horizon. It was one of the many stations that orbited the Earth, and that belonged to the Galactic Federation. It was also one of the stations that had been attacked by the Black Sun, a rogue faction that wanted to overthrow the Federation and take control of the galaxy. The Black Sun had been responsible for the death of their parents, who were scientists working on a project to create a new source of energy using antimatter. They had also been responsible for the death of their uncle, who had betrayed them and worked for the Black Sun. They had never found out the truth about what had happened, and why their parents and uncle had died. It had remained a mystery to them, and a source of pain and anger. They had been taken care of by a designated staff team, who had been assigned to be their guardians after their parents’ death. They had been kind and friendly to them, and they had tried to make them feel a...

Jen Meets Leo

Jen walked back from the Atlantic Ocean boardwalk, feeling the breeze on her face and the sand in her shoes. She loved the Eau Gallie beach front park, a sight so stunning it stopped her to gaze. Scattered clouds, scattered magentas and orange water colored skies. Cotton candy pinks and lavender drapes of galaxies. She smiled as she remembered the poem she had written earlier, inspired by the beauty of nature.  She was heading to the downtown Eau Gallie Art Festival 2090, where she hoped to find some inspiration for her next poem. She had always dreamed of becoming a famous poet, and earning a ticket to the LifeSpan004 Space Travel Program. She wanted to see the stars up close, and write about them in her verses. She had heard that the program was looking for talented artists and writers to join their crew, and she was determined to be one of them.  She arrived at the festival, and was amazed by the variety of artworks on display. There were paintings, sculptures, photographs,...
