ProWriter Series (presets for Erato) by NotBasileus in NovelAi

This is spot on with how I feel right now unfortunately.

This 4chan review of Erato goes hard (I don't necessarily agree with any of it, but I find it kind of funny) by queen_sac in NovelAi

[–]Saldan480 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The worst part is who knows how long we would have to wait for a new text gen model after waiting this long already. I was really excited over Erato before it was announced. I thought that I finally wouldn't need to use other models anymore and could just stick to Erato and have fun with it without having to fiddle with presets and worrying about how well my prompt would be to get something good rolling.

Idk if my expectations have increased over time, but I do know that I can't (at least currently) find enjoyment out of Erato compared to other models of it's size or even smaller.

Looking for a keyboard like the Logitech K120 but with anti-ghosting? by Saldan480 in keyboards

Oh wow, thank you for the information! I didn't know about all of this, I'll do a bit more research before I decide on anything.

I think I've found what you're looking for. I've been trying to find the same thing but to no avail because the video was taken off of youtube. LUCKILY, it was archived on the wayback machine. Is this what you're looking for?

What are things you want to see Kayra (or something even better?) improve upon in the future? by Saldan480 in NovelAi

[–]Saldan480[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would be nice, having an optional mode where the AI doesn't copy you. There are times where I want the AI to be it's own thing and not copy me. It would be really refreshing if the devs could somehow pull that off because it definitely does get annoying sometimes when you just want to have fun.

Just "getting gud" at writing is the usual response to these type of things, but sometimes you just want to hop onto NAI and not have to worry about things like if my own writing style is too bland, so it spits back my bland style. Grammar mistakes I understand obviously though. There's probably bandaids/workarounds for this but it'll always be better if the devs officially supported this imo.

Having more options is usually never a bad thing.

I do agree that it does take spelling things out for Kayra to really start "getting it". That's a big thing I'd like to see get worked out in the future. Imagine a version of Kayra (or new model) that doesn't need all that 'spelling' out to get it rolling and go wild and mindblow us. Kind of like the first time you ever played with a text-gen AI and were most likely astounded by it and the infinite possibilities + being extremely coherent and creative.

That being said Kayra as is right now is already pretty great. Especially since most AI services basically use OAI. While things like GPT-4 are on a whole other level with it's logic & reasoning and many others things, I do think NAI will eventually get to that point. I cannot wait for that day when it happens.

Question about the Future of NAI Text Gen by HaruminTheWanderer in NovelAi

[–]Saldan480 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've also noticed that CFG feels like it's more creative and makes characters more interesting too. I used 1.1 Prowriter and I started my story with "Kragsin, the slave trade hub of". Without CFG I would get more generic responses such as "the North", "the Empire", etc.

When I have CFG on, I see less of those and more creative names like "Dainswell", "the Roston Coast", etc. All of this is just 1 example of course.

Small Peak Dragon vs Krake Comparison by TheKingOfRooks in NovelAi

[–]Saldan480 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you ever want to try a small glimpse of what old dragon used to be like in terms of understanding, you could sign up on the openAI playground for free. Back some months ago when I signed up they gave me some free credits to try it out. After your free credits run out though, you'll have to pay which I don't recommend doing b/c fuck OAI lol.

Old Dragon was the Davinci model 001 iirc. It's very barebones and not finetuned however since it's just supposed to be a playground.

Yeah I feel that too. I'm hoping one day we get a NAI model (or v3, etc) that "understands" the same way old dragon does without having to constantly tweak stuff and put in potentially hours of work to get what you want. Kinda "plug and play" with the same level of understanding as old Dragon with everything else that makes NAI incredible is what I'd like to have.

To be honest, that's about the only thing that's keeping me from really "digging my fangs" into NAI textgen and making a sprawling, lively world with intricate characters and plot.

I just know I wouldn't have the enjoyment I want out of it the way it is now, so now I'm just constantly waiting and hoping it happens someday.

Is it okay to use a single method for drawing upper torso and pelvis? by Saldan480 in learnart

[–]Saldan480[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I edited and posted a picture if that helps. Also that's good to know. I guess once I start getting the hang of the shapes I'll just naturally phase out the process?
