Introduction: Use ChatGPT with Images and Videos to increase productivity 10x
The blog discusses fascinating ways you can use ChatGPT ( and similar GenAI tools) to process Images and Videos, and increase your productivity.
The blog covers Images and Videos only. For leveraging ChatGPT on Word and PDF, refer to our blog. Similarly for leveraging ChatGPT on PPT and Excel refer to our earlier blog on the same.
Please note, some of these activities discussed in the blog are supported only in the paid version of ChatGPT (ChatGPT Plus) .
1: Upload an Image and ask anything- Literally anything!
You can upload an image by attaching image file directly to ChatGPT. If you are using mobile app, you can also take a picture and attach it to ChatGPT directly.
Example: Create a book catalogue from a library shelf picture
In this example, we will attach an image of a book shelf and ask ChatGPT to create a catalogue of books in the shelf and analyze them further.
Prompt : You are a librarian, analyze the books in the book shelf and provide a catalogue of books along with a brief description.
As you can see, ChatGPT was successfully able to create a catalogue of all the books ( with a brief description) just from a single picture.
Example: Analyze a random picture and get more details
Example: Translate the text in the picture into a different language
In the below example we take a picture of a sign board in Chinese and ask ChatGPT to translate. As you can see , ChatGPT not only extracted the text ( via OCR), it identified the language ( Chinese) and translated it into English.
This is quite helpful, especially when you are travelling and you need to navigate the host country language ( Signboards, etc.)
2. Create a picture book with a specific character
In this example we will demonstrate the following
1. Create a specific character in ChatGPT
2. Create a unique id for the character (Generative ID)
3. Use the same character ( with the unique Generative ID) to create a series of picture stories (Which you can convert into a story book and publish)
Prompt 1: You are a children book illustrator. Create a cute 6 year old girl with red hair and glowing skin with cheerful facial expression. The girl is wearing a colorful dress with a unicorn design.
ChatGPT successfully creates an image of a girl as per instruction.
Prompt 2: Give me the Generative ID of the girl character
This step is very important. Generative ID is the unique ID that ChatGPT assigns to a image it creates. This is like your passport number or national identity number which uniquely identifies you as a person. As you see ChatGPT has provided a unique ID for the image ( Generative ID LoQ9RZzFROH236ur). We will use this unique ID henceforth to create various images of the same character in ChatGPT.
Prompt 3: Use the girl character you have created with Generative ID LoQ9RZzFROH236ur. Draw a image with her doing yoga.
As you can see ChatGPT has taken the same character and created a illustration with her doing yoga. If you don’t specify the Generative ID, ChatGPT might change the character whie creating the follow up illustrations.
Prompt 4: Use the girl character you have created with Generative ID LoQ9RZzFROH236ur. Draw a image with her dancing.
As you can see ChatGPT has taken the same character and created a illustration with her dancing.
You can continue further creating illustrations with this technique covering multiple characters. You can then ask ChatGPT to create a PPT or downloadable link of the images, which you can use to create your own picture book
3. Upload a video and ask ChatGPT to analyze the content.
Example: Create a catalogue of toys form a video of toy shelf
In this example we will upload a short video of a kid’s toy shelf. We will then ask ChatGPT to analyze the toy shelf and provide a catalogue of toys the kid plays with.
Prompt : Analyze the video of a kid toy shelf (attached) and create a catalogue of toys you see.
As you can see ChatGPT successfully analyzes the video and creates a catalogue of toys. The way it does this is it it takes frames (snapshot) of the video at an interval of 60 seconds ( Frame 0, Frame 60, Frame 120..) and analyzes each frame.
Example: Extract various characters from a video
In this example we will upload a short video of a flower garden and ask ChatGPT to extract all unique flowers, from the video, it sees.
Prompt : Analyze the video ( Attached) of the garden. Extract each unique flower frame as a separate image.
As you can see ChatGPT has identified set of unique flowers from the video and have extracted images of them ( frame from the video).
