3. Creative Challenge:

This week's challenge: "Compare and contrast the outputs of two different tools using the same prompt." To participate, follow these steps:

Choose two tools from the list above.

Create a prompt that resonates with you, such as "A bustling cityscape at dusk with neon signs reflecting off rain-soaked streets." PRO TIP: If you’re stuck, select one element from the prompt to change. Then copy & paste the new prompt into ChatGPT, “act as an expert in text to image ai tools. randomize all elements of the following prompt except _____ . ”. YAHTZEE! You have your “prompt that resonates with you”.

Generate visuals using both chosen tools and the same prompt. Take note of the time it takes to create each image and any productivity-enhancing features you discover.
