 Last week I wrote about [ChatGPT-4](https://ecency.com/hive-150329/@rt395/chat-gpt-4-has-arrived) being an earth shattering development. Since that post things have already accelerated. People are taking the reins of this bull and running with it. I decided to give [Midjourney](https://www.midjourney.com/home/?callbackUrl=%2Fapp%2F) a spin for a logo design I have been working on for a while. Before I get there though, I wanted to show you another thing AI is doing. Check out this video by Microsoft for their AI "Co-pilot". https://youtu.be/hGb9UZ8DyDc Setting Microsoft aside, anyone who has made a powerpoint, tried to sort through excel spreadsheets, etc. can see how powerful this can be as it can cut down on time and streamline productivity. Now, apply this to say Proton Mail plus Brave, maybe open office and other non Facebook, Apple or Google apps. Now, back to my logo. I went to Midjourney and gave it the following parameters, "a minimalistic logo with the gemstone benitoite & neptunite overlayed on deer antlers without the deer. All on a white background". I've used Photoshop and Illustrator since the early 2000's, more recently GIMP, but it would still take me days, if at all, to get as polished a design as these.  The logos looked great, but did not include benitoite or neptunite and did include the deer which I had asked it not to. To be fair it did use shades of blue that benitoite comes in and it did only include the deer's head. With that I decided to ask it to give me variations of the two logos I liked 1 &2.  Keep in mind all of these designs took less than 60 seconds, more close to 30 seconds, to render.  I decide to work on these two versions.   However they are not complete. I need to go in and modify them to include benitoite & neptunite crystals. I also want to either delete any facial features on the deer or delete the deer head entirely. Unfortunately this might take me days to get right though!! This development in AI & the coming voice commands is going to be revolutionary. However, like any tool, you have to know how to use it. Like this, this, THIS!  It's not just engineering though, it will affect everything online and much offline, but know the right questions to ask will be key. It's ask not what the AI can do for you, ask what you can do with an AI. If you aren't familiar with Midjourney, they operate through Discord.
