-: Okay, this is how we work with weighted terms.
So we have here in Midjourney a prompt, which is painting
of the Golden Gate Bridge by Salvador Dali.
And you can see we got some pretty cool stuff, right?
Like I really like this realist style
and you can see it's clearly the Golden Gate bridge.
And then here's the same thing both by Vincent Van Gogh.
So you can see his kind of thick brush strokes,
a bit of Starry Night echoing in here.
So really interesting stuff.
Now, creativity is really when you blend
multiple ideas together, right?
And that's when creativity happens.
So why don't we try and blend them here as well.
So this prompt is painting of the Golden Gate Bridge
by Van Gogh, by Salvador Dali.
So it's by two different artists.
You can see there's actually elements of both,
and that's kind of interesting,
but to me there's not enough Van Gogh in here.
So what you can do is what we did here.
So we said painting of the Golden Gate Bridge,
and then we put two colons and two colons
basically kind of separates out this part of the prompt.
And the default is one, a weighting of one.
So you can actually weight up, you could weight down,
you can kind of do negative.
Actually, you know, negative waiting is basically the same
as saying no, none of this, right?
But, so that would be like kind of a negative prompt.
So in here what we've done is by Van Gogh, colon,
colon 0.8, and then by Salvador Dali colon, colon 0.2.
And it's given us a really interesting visual style.
So it is very Van Gogh with the Starry Night ceiling.
But there's also a touch of surrealism in there as well.
So really cool stuff.
You know, we can actually get rid of certain parts
of the prompt if we want, right?
Like it kind of works on everything.
So we've got the Golden Gate Bridge,
we could actually kind of say minus one
and we'll see what that comes back with.
But that will kind of, I guess give us the style,
the style of the Golden Gate Bridge,
or the style of Van Gogh in Salvador Dali,
but without the bridge.
So we'll get the opposite of a bridge
and we're gonna see in the latent space
what the opposite of a bridge is.
So you can see, you can get really creative.
Okay, so apparently this man is the opposite
of the Golden Gate Bridge.
Okay, weird, right?
You end up with some pretty weird stuff
when you mess with this.
So this is weighted prompting,
really try different styles.
Kind of try different unusual combinations
and use this to have like a little bit more control
over what it is you're trying to do with your AI art.
