Dall-E 3 Now Supports Seed NumbersImage by Jim Clyde MongeIt appears that OpenAI has quietly released a significant new feature for Dall-E 3—it now supports functional seed numbers!
What the heck does seed even mean?
Seeds act like a unique ID for each image Dall-E generates.
Seed numbers allow you to recreate the exact same image later. Dall-E 3 normally generates images randomly each time you provide a prompt. But with a seed number, you can force it to generate the same image again.
Previously, Dall-E 3 would always return a default seed number of 5000 for all the images it generated, which wasn’t helpful. Now it returns a large number.
Here’s an example:Prompt: an image of a girl model holding a card that says “Dall-E is awesome”
Image by Jim Clyde MongeAs you can see, ChatGPT gave me the seed number 1458403096 for the first image.
Using that seed number, I can generate a similar image with minor tweaks by describing the changes I want.
I asked ChatGPT to change the text on the card from “Dall-E is awesome” to “I am cool”. In just seconds, it perfectly changed the text—very cool!
Image by Jim Clyde MongeTo test it further, I asked the AI to shorten the model’s hair. Again, it changed only the hair.
Image by Jim Clyde MongeWhat about changing the model’s age—can it handle that?
Image by Jim Clyde MongeOh yes, it transformed the model into a young adult while keeping the clothes, pose, and card the same. Very impressive!
Next, I wanted a blue background. Usually you’d need Photoshop for this, but can Dall-E 3 do it?
