Abstract
Teleprompt is an image generation game using OpenAI's GPT and DALL-E 3 APIs. The game play follows a similar pattern as Wordle with a GenAI twist. I originally wrote the game using Stable Diffusion last year and recently revamped it with DALL-E 3, which I detailed in this article: https://medium.com/@byronsalty/teleprompt-a70a3b663d67
Justification
This game is the spirit of tinkering. I originally conceived of and challenged myself to build the game all within 24 hours. Spoiler: It took 48 hours. Since then I've hacked on it off and on to add quality and playability improvements. It's also NOT a chat app which is what everyone is building, so I think it will pique some interest that it's a bit different. On the tech side, the whole thing is a single dev effort with a modern application stack (Elixir/Phoenix) with the AI components powered by OpenAI. Which should be interesting because it demonstrates what a person can do by themself without a whole team. I can also highlight differences between StableDiffusions, Midjourney and DALL-E. This is also more than just a science project, I have it running consistently since Jan 1 and starting to see some real world usage. My plan is to release numbers around usage and how the cloud / APIs costs match up to those metrics on Feb 1 but I'm happy to give the group the sneak preview of that data. Lastly, depending on the desired format I could do a quick 5 min product demo or a 30 min deeper dive on the product with the tech/architecture and usage/costs. Whatever works.
