Dear Tayler, apart from being a knitter I'm a researcher and my expertise has also to do with language generative models like chatGPT. However, I would have never asked it to design a knitting pattern. This is such a fun and surprising video!
I played with this a few weeks ago. I asked it to write me a cover letter for a librarian with workforce development. It was actually a decent cover letter! I then asked it to write the cover letter in the voice of Edgar Allen Poe. Mind blown!!!
Hi everyone! So I have a little bonus for you today. Something different. And don't worry. This is not a new format, just something I wanted to share. The Midweek Ramble will still be coming tomorrow. Please keep in mind: THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL BUT RATHER A (VERY LIMITED) DEMONSTRATION. I did not design ChatGPT. I am not responsible for all that it implies and means for artists/designers in general (nor do I think this is the beginning of a robot takeover...but who am I?). I just know that it exists and it is capable of far more than I am able to demonstrate here. If you do not like this technology, that's ok. If you love it, that's ok. If you just don't know, that's ok. I think we all should just be open-minded...as much as possible. If that's hard for you to do right now, that's also ok. This is VERY new. Maybe give it a try and see what you think. And I will not be using ChatGPT to fix my vacuum. 💀 A couple of things I think about: How does this impact bloggers who make money on ad revenue and are reliant on folks visiting their sites for the information they provide? How does this impact pattern graders? How can this be used a tool to make knitting more accessible? How do the limitations impact the user if they’re following provided instructions? How are folks expected to identify errors if they have a limited understanding of the topic? Will ChatGPT access and share information protected behind “paywalls”? It's interesting... Some videos to check out for more insight into ChatGPT and some thoughts swirling around about it: ruclips.net/video/cWil0mqdXRY/видео.html ruclips.net/video/7emz4zZ226E/видео.html ruclips.net/video/v3Dc9feQS6o/видео.html chat.openai.com/
20:11 Perhaps on the sock pattern it interpreted your “in three sizes” request as three pairs and therefore it wanted you to have enough yarn without playing yarn chicken 🤣
I work in medical research. Currently, any medical specialist would take 20 years to read the articles pertaining to their medical specialty published in ONE SINGLE DAY. What AI will be able to provide in the medical field is up-to-date research or even anecdotal case reports as well as the ability to analyze a patient's current conditions, lab results, radiographic images, etc, to immediately provide possible diagnoses and treatment options, along with supporting bibliographic info. Of course, it would be the medical specialist's experience and intuition that would ultimately lead the diagnostic/decision-making process, but AI/Big Data will be able to make that process swifter, more efficient and less expensive. In Spain and in our public health system, we are already using AI + NLP + Big Data to process anonymous data extracted from millions of electronic patient files for retrospective studies. The future is bright!
This was fun! A partner in one of our businesses has actually started using chatGPT to help with content. Quite a fun tool, but AI in general is quite scary at the same time! The world is accelerating at such a fast pace. I’m 55 my husband 62 and we always try to stay young and educated. I’ve always tried to explore new areas in life before my kids! It blows their mind when they say have you heard of XYZ and I say yes 🤭🤣🤣 which makes me giggle. I did just ask about Kitchener while watching you and it seems to have now adjusted as it didn’t tell me to turn inside out 💪🏻
This is really interesting. I’ve hear about chat gpt, but have not looked into it myself. I watched a video about the ethics of AI art, and one of the things pointed out was that the AI would add a signature to the image because that’s what it saw on art made by people. Gpt saying things like “happy knitting” or “good luck with your granny squares” is because that’s the kind of language used in tutorials, and blog posts from makers. It’s just so fascinating.
Mind blown! I have heard of chat GPT. IM EXCITED TO USE IT because I only knit “Frankensweaters” and now maybe I can generate a skeleton pattern for the size I’m trying to knit. Sooo excited. Also I’m a new “sweater” knitter.
People have mentioned ChatGPT that students have brought up in conversations (online & in-person) to help "write" essays or cover letters. Not a good idea for that purpose but may be useful for what you mentioned it for. I've seen a couple creators attempt to use this program to write a pattern but it wasn't the best, but could probably help.
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS It's actually been banned in lots of places including universities and schools for this very reason. My husband works in industrial automation and ai... this has some pretty worrying spyware attached to it. Fun for knitting but I'd be careful what it can access on your computer
My mind immediately goes to using this to help gauge a pattern. Let’s say if you’re doing a sweater and the bust if 48 inches but you need a 50 inch bust. It can probably give you a formula
Ooo... as a knitter, I'm really happy to know I can easily access vanilla patterns! We've all been in that situation where we had to buy... a sport-weight sock pattern, for example because all we had were fingering weight patterns. Yes, if we applied ourselves, we could figure it out on our own, but as you say - this is mundane work that has been done. The information is already out there if we have access or know where to look. I like that also, as usable clothing, this information is free and not copyrighted.
I’m new to chatgpt too. The other day I asked it for some biographical information on a guy from long-ago. It did give me a surprising amount of information but some of it was not correct. I asked it for its sources and it provided them. This is a little more tricky than a knitting pattern, which is a simpler arithmetical problem - I’m sort of curious to know whether, after your corrections, chatgpt corrected it for ALL knitters asking in the future or whether it confines itself to the conversation at hand for corrections. I’m told that you can have “philosophical conversations” with it - and so if people can correct it, will that be a permanent change to its “moral code”? All in all, I think this is like using GPS on your phone. I think it’s better to know where you’re going but still to use directions provided by a computer. That computer may have access to accidents, road construction, etc. that is useful. But it can also steer you into unsafe places and so on - so you use the information and temper it with your own opinion and expertise. Hope this wasn’t too long a comment. It’s an interesting conundrum.
I asked it about the Kitchener cast off shaping for a toe on a sock and it gave me the correct information. I also asked it to give me a general pattern for knitting a sweater and a general sock pattern, I got both. Lots of fun.
As someone who uses free dodgy internet patterns from various different websites and blogs, to me this is similar to simply googling and then testing different patterns to see which ones are valid if they turn out ok or not. If it is pulling info from all over the web, it's no surprise that it can write a pattern for vanilla socks as it is written in so many places already. Like majority of internet sources it requires some critical thinking and common sense to assess what is correct and not, like to trust the label on the sock yarn if it says that it is enough for a pair of socks for example. But it could be a great tool, like your question about division of decreases is a great example.
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I just had a conversation about this website the other day. A microbrew in BC Canada asked ChatGPT for a beer recipe and they made it. Obviously they had to tweak the recipe but still it’s an interesting concept, like your sock pattern. So much fun.
OMG Tayler. I just used ChatGPT to help me “design” a cable pattern for my plain sleeve cardigan and it wrote the row by row instructions for me!!! It also offered me suggestions on the effect that would have on my sleeve width. My mind is blown. 🤯🤯😊
This is fantastic! Like you spotted, for best results with machine language learning, it is best to ask the same question concept with different angles of approach. Don't be afraid to ask again with different words or aspects, this is how it works the best and you'll receive more and more accurate answers. Neural networks are such incredibly useful tool.
I decided to ask it to create a 3-color gradient cardigan with a 52 inch bust and 6 inches of positive ease. It started me off with a sweater knitted in the round. I asked it if cardigans can be knitted in the round and it said yes, but it didn't mention anything like steeking. Then I asked for it to be modified to open in the front, and it gave me instructions for a pieced cardigan. I also had to specify that I wanted the color gradient to be even across the sweater, and it gave me modified instructions. Next I'm going to ask it to change it so the front and back are one piece (no side seams). This is sort of amazing. Not sure if the sizing is correct, but what a fun thing to play with and to try to get started! Thank you for this video!
It did give me an updated pattern for no side seams. The I did the math on the stitch count and gouge and the sweater would only have measured 44 inches, total. I told it that, and said I'd need 58 inches, and it modified the pattern for me. My mind is officially blown. And, when I asked, it also gave me revised yarn yardage. It didn't change the sleeve head circumference. I could measure my arm and ask it to revise it, and I'm sure it would. Although, I feel like I'm bothering it now. LOL!
Ah, it's really struggling now. It couldn't figure out what to do with the sleeves to make them the right size. And once I finally had it sort of figured out, I asked it to rewrite the entire pattern with all of the changes, and it went back to the first version with the smaller total inches. Definitely not perfect. The sleeves seem to be its downfall.
This is similar to the questions that happened at almost any technology breakthrough. Bell's phone, calculator, first generation computer. You find your personal comfort level and give it a try. Interesting topic. Think of what this will be like in 30 years.
What a fascinating video. I love how you think outside the box when coming up with your topics. Your channel is the best!! Also I'm LOVING your shirt/hat combo! They look so perfect together.
Fascinating! Thanks for this! My husband & I spent quite a bit of time talking about this with our 30-something son last week. I was initially skeptical, but I also can see how this can free up the ‘mundane’ and open up the writing process to allow for more creativity. 👍🏻😍
this is so cool! I've actually been meaning to go searching Ravelry for a DK weight, toe up sock with a heel flap and gusset. But ChatGPT was able to do it! It did repeat the foot instruction again after the heel turn, but once I corrected it it continued onto the leg. And gave instructions to repeat for the second sock! Perfect use for this. I've been skeptical since hearing of ChatGPT as there is so much hype, and I just thought of it as the latest evolution of a conversation AI (I'm also in the machine learning space). But it's so cool to see it applied to something I love, thanks so much, love your videos!
Loved watching this, Tayler. I now think you're some kind of genius for thinking to ask these questions. Absolute coincidence, I had my first chat with Chat GPT this morning, and the hardest part for me was coming up with the topics in the first place!
So interesting and fun but the fact that it makes basic mistakes shows you how much you need your lys for support or tech edited patterns. It's a huge step forward that it can scour so much data so quickly though google also serves the purpose of providing info quickly as well. Appreciate your dive into this from the knitting perspective.
I had a similar reaction when I tried to use ChapGPT to write a crochet pattern for a granny square! I think you highlighted a huge point for anyone that might be nervous about it: ChatGPT really does make a lot of mistakes... It's super fun as someone that already knows how to crochet to test what the AI can do, but we wouldn't be able to know that 1 of 10 things it says are wrong otherwise. I wouldn't use it to do something I've never done, though That's why I think that, in its current state, it's not anything that could jeopardize crochet/knit designers today. The AI can only piece together and try to replicate data points in its training data, but it isn't capable of knowing whether its output is correct. At the moment I see it as more of a tool that could be used as inspiration, but only by someone with enough expertise to catch the mistakes and make the corrections. But who knows what the future may bring!
This was a great one! I've used chatGPT for generating better instructions for my studies. Whenever the instructions have been really badly structured, chatGPT actually helped me out a lot! I see this new technology much like you do, it's a great tool to do the mundane and repetetive aspects of many jobs. Also, there's no more excuses for badly written patterns!
Super interesting. I would definitely try it for a hat or socks to know how many to cast on for my specific measurements based on my gauge. Or even with specific ideas of what type of stitches I want to use! Thanks for the video
Tayler. This was so cool. I would not have been interested until you asked it to create knitting patterns. I just made a generic pattern for my husband’s foot size and the pattern chat got was almost exactly the same. I will try their to see which is better. 😮 as always a great program.
Hmmm. The computer is only as smart as the info it is accessing or being fed. Reminds me of early days of computing where one computer was asked to translate into Russian "Out of sight, out of mind." It duly did. Then that Russian phrase was translated back into English and it read "Invisible idiot." Humans still have a lot more humour, creativity, sense of nuance and ability to know when a task is complete!
So, on the sock pattern, did it assume you wanted to knit two socks at once? I don't recall that it said to repeat for the other sock. I also wonder whether ChatGPT learns from its mistakes, so that the next time someone asks, has it already made revisions to the original answer? I'm really on the fence about this technology, so I really appreciate seeing it with something familiar to me. I'm an archival indexer (indexing old records not online). Recently, we used something similar to index a batch of records, and then us mere mortals reviewed what the software indexed. The process of indexing went a lot faster. No idea of how accurate the software was compared to human inputting the data. I do know the AI did struggle with a viewer box when the image wasn't perfectly straight, and it picked up other values (like native language) as names. I've only read a few bloggers who've addressed ChatGPT and its cousins, so I really appreciate your demonstrating this for us!
Fascinating! I have used chatGPT and I think that the more people interact with it the more it learns intelligently and will be increasingly accurate with its responses. For example after you asked about the Kitchener stitch being inside out, it has now learned and will disseminate this information correctly for next time. It could be very cool to see its applications but also could pose some conundrums. What a great presentation you gave in this video!
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS although I did ask it again about the kichener stitch and it still provided the incorrect answer. Then I told it that you had already asked the same question and that it corrected the answer for you. Hmmm. Maybe not so smart after all. 🤣🤣🤣
Wow. This is absolutely fascinating! I’m a librarian who works with taxonomy and searching, so using this in conjunction with knitting is right up my alley! Thanks for demoing this!! I think it could really aid in pattern design, as in make it more efficient? You’d obvs need to check, as you are doing, but wow! It could also encourage more folks to design patterns! I’m doing a blanket right now that I made up the pattern for, but using ChatGPT would’ve been so much easier, if I told it what I wanted and then it could do some of the math for me that I could then double check! I might try it out anyway and see what I get!
Hello Tayler. Thank you for your podcasts. I thoroughly enjoy them. You always seem upbeat and happy and you cheered me up when I was snowed in recently for 4 days!! I was up for hours last night playing with Chat GPT. I had never heard of it and it was really interesting. AI concerns me in the wrong hand but there are definitely some benefits to it. I did note that it was programmed to not respond to questions that were inappropriate. There are mistakes, like you say. I asked it to give me some local wool suppliers in my area and it gave me a bedding store because they sell wool quilts and also gave me suppliers that were hundreds of miles away. I find the more specific you are the better it is. I asked for a pattern and decrease for a 96 stitch hat in worsted and it wrote a pattern that looked appropriate. I then asked for a shorter than 25 row decrease and it gave me a 23 row decrease, then a 21 row decrease, but when I asked it to give me a decrease under 10 rows it gave me a decrease for over 6 rows. I think there are lots of knitting related issues it could help with....if only it could write charts!! I bet if you give it a pattern for worsted weight it could adjust it for a different weights and sizes too.
I love watching your videos and really appreciate all the time and effort you put into the content and also making them really professionally. I have just started a RUclips channel in January and have been thinking about using some proper editing software. Do you mind if I ask what you program you use? Thanks so much for all your work. 😃ETA - I just found your video from Nov 2022. Thanks so much for already going through all this and providing so much information.
I think this is very interesting indeed! My husband is an engineer and loves ChatGPT so I had mixed feelings about it designing a sweater pattern! Thanks for showing me another use for this future tool.
Wow, you have given us a lot to chew on Taylor. As a former university instructor, I am scared that ChatGPT will take over assignment-writing (probably already has). As a knitter, you have made me think about some interesting connections. I have head that it can adapt it's language to suit the question/user, and you have demonstrated this. I will watch the with new eyes.
It might be good for a game of sock/scarf/dishcloth pattern roulette. A group can have certain criteria to include in the pattern, but the contestant could add some design details to have the AI include. Then knit or crochet the object to the instructions and see what comes out. Pretty cool stuff in any case.
My issue with this is that you can't see where the system is drawing it's answers from. Eg if you were writing an article it is good practice to site your sources. This doesn't do that
I have never heard of ChatGPT so I definitely learned something through this video and I’m anxious to share it with my husband in the morning. I’m floored at the moment and really have to digest this information before I could give an opinion. Thank you for sharing this incredible technology and giving food for thought!
Thank you for talking about this app. This is very interesting. I wonder if a student could use this for their homework when writing an essay and would be considered plagiarism. Also, if a designer wants to use this to help them design a pattern, then wouldn't those designers have duplicate patterns... and would they be able to copyright a pattern created by this app? I hope I made sense here. I am going to have to try this app. It sounds like fun. Have a wonderful day Tayler! 🙂
Thanks for the bonus video. I will definitely use this to calculate knitting and crocheting increases and also to help write product descriptions. So many ways to use this, I am sure. Anxious to read other suggestions.
The thing to remember is that chatGPT isn't writing a pattern, it is collecting information from all over the internet. So it is using other people's work to give you answers to what you ask of it. The sources can be wrong/inaccurate and we have no idea if it is mindful of any kind of copyrights.
This is such a fascinating, and also worrying, concept. Thanks for exploring from a pattern perspective. It will be interesting to see how it develops. I was also interested that it said to turn the sock inside out for kitchener. I've used Roxanne Richardson's RUclips video for the Finchley graft, where you do turn the sock inside out.
I'm my own chatgpt when it comes to knitting (I can use Google lol) but I'd like to try it for dinner recipes when I have a bunch of ingredients but no idea what to make with them.
Thank you so much for showing us this tool in action from a knitter’s POV. The way ChatGPT works for now, it has just as much opportunity to find the mistakes in all its data as find the right info, I guess. Of course, I am likely to find mistaken blog posts or tutorials out there, too, so there’s that. I really hope the creators find a way to include at least some of the source material it uses for each answer.
Thanks for sharing! This is an interesting thing to think about. It’s fascinating to see what technology can do and I’m interested to see how it’ll benefit creators and others.
Hi Tayler - thanks for this interesting video. I have heard and seen ChatGPT but never really thought to use for knitting. I’m such a visual learner and have basically taught myself to knit with RUclips tutorials. I guess I don’t have a level of “trust” with ChatGPT that I have with expert knitters. 🤷🏻♀️
I’m very much the same Leslie. I’ll stick to human-generated tutorials for now because I’m just not there yet with ChatGPT. It’s more of a fun parlor trick for me right now. “Hey, watch ChatGPT write a poem about my dog!” 🤣
I have heard more about chatgpt this week and played with it a little tonight. I tried to design a sweater with it but correcting mistakes I would not trust it to give me a pattern to actually use. I’ll leave it to the designers and test knitters. It was fun just to confuse it though. Thank you for sharing.
If I want to know how to do something, I use google search and ask for how to do it. Then I choose the video option and choose from the options. That way I know the source and can see how something is done.
My high school daughter has been discussing in her ethics class. All essays will be written in class without laptops. Will definitely change college applications - interested to see how institutions will handle. Had not even occurred to me to try it for basic knitting patterns. Fun to explore. Thanks Tayler!
@@michelleharrison5679 I have a granddaughter who never learned how to read or write cursive. She's now 23 and I have no idea how she gets by in life. She barely does and I can't help but think that because it was taken out of the curriculum, it truly stunted her growth in everything. Makes me so angry!!
Hi Tayler, wow, that was interesting. I’m curious if the corrections you asked about will be available when the question is asked again by someone else? Thanks for sharing 🧶
I am new to your channel (I've been binge watching while completing a sweater I started in 2019... xD) and I really enjoy your videos! Chat GPT wrote me a top-down in the round sweater pattern using my measurements. I'm so tempted to just try it and see what happens....
Thank you for sharing. This is really fascinating and I was so excited to see a video today. I just found your channel recently and enjoy your videos very much.
What a fascinating discussion. I can see using it for a quick hat pattern when trying to use a new yarn. Hats can be tricky to size and perhaps this tech could help in a pinch. Thank you for starting the conversation. It will be interesting to read everyone's take on this.
I think it would be very interesting to ask it to write a pattern for something that is a little less standardized, like a cabled or a colorwork sweater. Even though it makes some mistakes, it seems to have the basics down pretty well, but cabled patterns tend to be pretty unique! Would a more complicated request mess up its ability to give a pattern that is even sweater shaped? I don't think that something like this would be that useful of a resource for beginners, as it is much more helpful to use a search engine to go to a source that you can trust isn't going to make mistakes.
Such a great explainer of ChatGPT in general - much easier to understand when you're looking at an example that's relevant to your interests. Thank you!
Fascinating! I’ll be interested to see where it goes. BTW have you looked for videos on YT to diagnose and fix your vacuum cleaner? My husband has found videos to fix pretty much everything, including broken cables in car window mechanisms, which also required taking the door apart and putting it back together. 😊 BTW YT has been showing me your early podcasts, and we ❤Oscar. 🐈⬛ My husband laughed out loud with the talking!
I can think of all kinds of knitting applications. I’m old enough to remember when PCs came into regular use and people were up in arms…it happens. But good to address those concerns too.
Well, first the Spanish translation was pretty ok, good I would say if not every day language. But, I believe, that many business people are using this side for assistance, it could write a business document in seconds, they are using it for variety of things and it is mostly correct. It is all over, Spain for example, my friend asked to have a house designed.I personally did not think that it could be useful for me, but you proven me wrong. Thank you.
Whoa!! So many thoughts. I don’t think it would put anyone out of business because if people didn’t write the patterns or blogs, then it would have nothing to pull the info from right? It’s also kind of like crowdsourcing in we can improve it by corrections. I cracked up when you said you felt like you were imposing to keep asking for things😂, you are prob like me where I feel oddly bad when I don’t take directions from my iPhone and it is repeatedly telling me to reroute lol. Like sorry sorry! So interesting though.
Hey Tayler! Interesting concept for pattern writing. I was thinking of “muslin” making of the sweater pattern on a basic knitting machine to check Chat’s accuracy would be where a designer would start the design process. It would give an idea of stitch count and row count an fit before adding design elements. Do you know if you copied the text and pasted it into a word processing program could you edit that text? Something to look into maybe.
This was so much fun. I'm with you in that I find it fascinating. A tool for good or a tool for evil? Like with anything else out there on the 'inter-webs', probably potential for both. Be sure to let us know if it helps you fix your vacuum cleaner.
Taylor, this is so great to have if not understanding a pattern etc Thank you so much for your great share again !!! I will try this program out Have a great day!!!💝
This is a great video and a practical review. I prefer that to vague, nebulous fears that don’t help anyone form an informed opinion. We’ve also been discussing ChatGPT in Germany… the teachers are very worried about how testing and homework will take place. All the same, at the moment, the grammar is still a bit wonky at times (in German and English- we asked it to write a birthday card text), but I can see that being improved fairly quickly. From your analysis, I’d be willing to speculate, that it might actually force more creativity and innovation on the part of knitwear designers, so more avant-garde and new techniques, like Olgajazzy, Stephen West, etc. and might force paid knitwear patterns off of websites. Test knitting will probably still continue to be a thing though. This isn’t anything new though, as people with limited budgets have been searching for and finding free patterns online for a while now. The only thing is that there isn’t usually much pattern support.
That explanation of knitting in Spanish is surprisingly accurate. That translation is better than Google translate. Although take my assessment with a grain of salt since I’m not a native speaker but it’s my second language
thats actually pretty cool! most conect abour ai that ive interacted with has talked about the more unethical side of them. Like, about the ones that create art by being fed other peoples art work and then using it to create art in that person's style. but its really cool to see someone point out uses like this!
Maybe this could help sizing patterns or improving your own pattern - amazing video! Never would have had this idea to connect chatGPT with knitting. 🐑

Oh man, a mystery knit along using a pattern written by AI would be an absolute blast. This needs to be done 🎉
Only if it is a 1-skein project! Could you imagine using 1200 yards of yarn only to be disappointed? LOL!
I would totally participate in this!
I'm in
Dear Tayler, apart from being a knitter I'm a researcher and my expertise has also to do with language generative models like chatGPT. However, I would have never asked it to design a knitting pattern. This is such a fun and surprising video!
I played with this a few weeks ago. I asked it to write me a cover letter for a librarian with workforce development. It was actually a decent cover letter! I then asked it to write the cover letter in the voice of Edgar Allen Poe. Mind blown!!!
Hi everyone! So I have a little bonus for you today. Something different. And don't worry. This is not a new format, just something I wanted to share. The Midweek Ramble will still be coming tomorrow.
Please keep in mind:
THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL BUT RATHER A (VERY LIMITED) DEMONSTRATION.
I did not design ChatGPT. I am not responsible for all that it implies and means for artists/designers in general (nor do I think this is the beginning of a robot takeover...but who am I?). I just know that it exists and it is capable of far more than I am able to demonstrate here. If you do not like this technology, that's ok. If you love it, that's ok. If you just don't know, that's ok. I think we all should just be open-minded...as much as possible. If that's hard for you to do right now, that's also ok. This is VERY new. Maybe give it a try and see what you think.
And I will not be using ChatGPT to fix my vacuum. 💀
A couple of things I think about:
How does this impact bloggers who make money on ad revenue and are reliant on folks visiting their sites for the information they provide?
How does this impact pattern graders?
How can this be used a tool to make knitting more accessible?
How do the limitations impact the user if they’re following provided instructions?
How are folks expected to identify errors if they have a limited understanding of the topic?
Will ChatGPT access and share information protected behind “paywalls”?
It's interesting...

20:11 Perhaps on the sock pattern it interpreted your “in three sizes” request as three pairs and therefore it wanted you to have enough yarn without playing yarn chicken 🤣
Ah! Maybe you’re right! How thoughtful after all! 🤣❤️
I really hope there's a part 2 of this video asking it for a pattern and knitting it up, I'm so curious!
I work in medical research. Currently, any medical specialist would take 20 years to read the articles pertaining to their medical specialty published in ONE SINGLE DAY. What AI will be able to provide in the medical field is up-to-date research or even anecdotal case reports as well as the ability to analyze a patient's current conditions, lab results, radiographic images, etc, to immediately provide possible diagnoses and treatment options, along with supporting bibliographic info. Of course, it would be the medical specialist's experience and intuition that would ultimately lead the diagnostic/decision-making process, but AI/Big Data will be able to make that process swifter, more efficient and less expensive. In Spain and in our public health system, we are already using AI + NLP + Big Data to process anonymous data extracted from millions of electronic patient files for retrospective studies. The future is bright!
This was fun! A partner in one of our businesses has actually started using chatGPT to help with content. Quite a fun tool, but AI in general is quite scary at the same time! The world is accelerating at such a fast pace. I’m 55 my husband 62 and we always try to stay young and educated. I’ve always tried to explore new areas in life before my kids! It blows their mind when they say have you heard of XYZ and I say yes 🤭🤣🤣 which makes me giggle. I did just ask about Kitchener while watching you and it seems to have now adjusted as it didn’t tell me to turn inside out 💪🏻
Oohhhh 😯 I've been wanting a knitter or crocheter to make a video like this ever since ChatGPT was announced. Sooo glad it was you, Tayler!!! 👏👏👏
This is really interesting. I’ve hear about chat gpt, but have not looked into it myself. I watched a video about the ethics of AI art, and one of the things pointed out was that the AI would add a signature to the image because that’s what it saw on art made by people. Gpt saying things like “happy knitting” or “good luck with your granny squares” is because that’s the kind of language used in tutorials, and blog posts from makers. It’s just so fascinating.
Mind blown! I have heard of chat GPT. IM EXCITED TO USE IT because I only knit “Frankensweaters” and now maybe I can generate a skeleton pattern for the size I’m trying to knit. Sooo excited. Also I’m a new “sweater” knitter.
People have mentioned ChatGPT that students have brought up in conversations (online & in-person) to help "write" essays or cover letters. Not a good idea for that purpose but may be useful for what you mentioned it for. I've seen a couple creators attempt to use this program to write a pattern but it wasn't the best, but could probably help.
Yes this is a big one. My husband teaches high school and this is a hot topic for sure.
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS It's actually been banned in lots of places including universities and schools for this very reason. My husband works in industrial automation and ai... this has some pretty worrying spyware attached to it. Fun for knitting but I'd be careful what it can access on your computer
Even though AI weirds me out completely, I really enjoyed listening to your thoughts and to seeing the ChatGPT in action!
My mind immediately goes to using this to help gauge a pattern. Let’s say if you’re doing a sweater and the bust if 48 inches but you need a 50 inch bust. It can probably give you a formula
Ooo... as a knitter, I'm really happy to know I can easily access vanilla patterns! We've all been in that situation where we had to buy... a sport-weight sock pattern, for example because all we had were fingering weight patterns.
Yes, if we applied ourselves, we could figure it out on our own, but as you say - this is mundane work that has been done. The information is already out there if we have access or know where to look. I like that also, as usable clothing, this information is free and not copyrighted.
I’m new to chatgpt too. The other day I asked it for some biographical information on a guy from long-ago. It did give me a surprising amount of information but some of it was not correct. I asked it for its sources and it provided them. This is a little more tricky than a knitting pattern, which is a simpler arithmetical problem -
I’m sort of curious to know whether, after your corrections, chatgpt corrected it for ALL knitters asking in the future or whether it confines itself to the conversation at hand for corrections. I’m told that you can have “philosophical conversations” with it - and so if people can correct it, will that be a permanent change to its “moral code”?
All in all, I think this is like using GPS on your phone. I think it’s better to know where you’re going but still to use directions provided by a computer. That computer may have access to accidents, road construction, etc. that is useful. But it can also steer you into unsafe places and so on - so you use the information and temper it with your own opinion and expertise.
Hope this wasn’t too long a comment. It’s an interesting conundrum.
I asked it about the Kitchener cast off shaping for a toe on a sock and it gave me the correct information. I also asked it to give me a general pattern for knitting a sweater and a general sock pattern, I got both. Lots of fun.
Love that you explored this topic. Never heard of it so I found it really interesting. I hope you keep up the "out of the box" type videos!
As someone who uses free dodgy internet patterns from various different websites and blogs, to me this is similar to simply googling and then testing different patterns to see which ones are valid if they turn out ok or not. If it is pulling info from all over the web, it's no surprise that it can write a pattern for vanilla socks as it is written in so many places already. Like majority of internet sources it requires some critical thinking and common sense to assess what is correct and not, like to trust the label on the sock yarn if it says that it is enough for a pair of socks for example. But it could be a great tool, like your question about division of decreases is a great example.
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I just had a conversation about this website the other day. A microbrew in BC Canada asked ChatGPT for a beer recipe and they made it. Obviously they had to tweak the recipe but still it’s an interesting concept, like your sock pattern. So much fun.
I think it’s so interesting. If it didn’t take so long to knit a sweater, I would feel compelled to try it (like the brewery). It’s fascinating!
OMG Tayler. I just used ChatGPT to help me “design” a cable pattern for my plain sleeve cardigan and it wrote the row by row instructions for me!!! It also offered me suggestions on the effect that would have on my sleeve width. My mind is blown. 🤯🤯😊
This is fantastic! Like you spotted, for best results with machine language learning, it is best to ask the same question concept with different angles of approach. Don't be afraid to ask again with different words or aspects, this is how it works the best and you'll receive more and more accurate answers. Neural networks are such incredibly useful tool.
I decided to ask it to create a 3-color gradient cardigan with a 52 inch bust and 6 inches of positive ease. It started me off with a sweater knitted in the round. I asked it if cardigans can be knitted in the round and it said yes, but it didn't mention anything like steeking. Then I asked for it to be modified to open in the front, and it gave me instructions for a pieced cardigan. I also had to specify that I wanted the color gradient to be even across the sweater, and it gave me modified instructions. Next I'm going to ask it to change it so the front and back are one piece (no side seams). This is sort of amazing. Not sure if the sizing is correct, but what a fun thing to play with and to try to get started! Thank you for this video!
It did give me an updated pattern for no side seams. The I did the math on the stitch count and gouge and the sweater would only have measured 44 inches, total. I told it that, and said I'd need 58 inches, and it modified the pattern for me. My mind is officially blown. And, when I asked, it also gave me revised yarn yardage. It didn't change the sleeve head circumference. I could measure my arm and ask it to revise it, and I'm sure it would. Although, I feel like I'm bothering it now. LOL!
Ah, it's really struggling now. It couldn't figure out what to do with the sleeves to make them the right size. And once I finally had it sort of figured out, I asked it to rewrite the entire pattern with all of the changes, and it went back to the first version with the smaller total inches. Definitely not perfect. The sleeves seem to be its downfall.
Mind blown! I also LOVE your Star Wars shirt.
This is similar to the questions that happened at almost any technology breakthrough. Bell's phone, calculator, first generation computer. You find your personal comfort level and give it a try. Interesting topic. Think of what this will be like in 30 years.
I absolutely love how you’re approaching this Cathy. “Find your comfort level” is such great advice. ❤️
What a fascinating video. I love how you think outside the box when coming up with your topics. Your channel is the best!! Also I'm LOVING your shirt/hat combo! They look so perfect together.
Fascinating! Thanks for this! My husband & I spent quite a bit of time talking about this with our 30-something son last week. I was initially skeptical, but I also can see how this can free up the ‘mundane’ and open up the writing process to allow for more creativity. 👍🏻😍
this is so cool! I've actually been meaning to go searching Ravelry for a DK weight, toe up sock with a heel flap and gusset. But ChatGPT was able to do it! It did repeat the foot instruction again after the heel turn, but once I corrected it it continued onto the leg. And gave instructions to repeat for the second sock! Perfect use for this. I've been skeptical since hearing of ChatGPT as there is so much hype, and I just thought of it as the latest evolution of a conversation AI (I'm also in the machine learning space). But it's so cool to see it applied to something I love, thanks so much, love your videos!
Fascinating! I’ve been hearing so much about it, but haven’t seen it in action. Thanks for making this video!
Loved watching this, Tayler. I now think you're some kind of genius for thinking to ask these questions. Absolute coincidence, I had my first chat with Chat GPT this morning, and the hardest part for me was coming up with the topics in the first place!
So interesting and fun but the fact that it makes basic mistakes shows you how much you need your lys for support or tech edited patterns. It's a huge step forward that it can scour so much data so quickly though google also serves the purpose of providing info quickly as well. Appreciate your dive into this from the knitting perspective.
You’re absolutely right. Nothing replaces human wisdom. Thank you for watching Elizabeth. ❤️
I had a similar reaction when I tried to use ChapGPT to write a crochet pattern for a granny square! I think you highlighted a huge point for anyone that might be nervous about it: ChatGPT really does make a lot of mistakes... It's super fun as someone that already knows how to crochet to test what the AI can do, but we wouldn't be able to know that 1 of 10 things it says are wrong otherwise. I wouldn't use it to do something I've never done, though
That's why I think that, in its current state, it's not anything that could jeopardize crochet/knit designers today. The AI can only piece together and try to replicate data points in its training data, but it isn't capable of knowing whether its output is correct.
At the moment I see it as more of a tool that could be used as inspiration, but only by someone with enough expertise to catch the mistakes and make the corrections.
But who knows what the future may bring!
This was just the fun rabbit hole I needed on a crappy day! Thanks for the info!
This was a great one! I've used chatGPT for generating better instructions for my studies. Whenever the instructions have been really badly structured, chatGPT actually helped me out a lot! I see this new technology much like you do, it's a great tool to do the mundane and repetetive aspects of many jobs.
Also, there's no more excuses for badly written patterns!
I love your take here Caroline and I can see how this can absolutely help you. That’s such a good point. ❤️❤️
Woah - this is amazing- thank you for sharing this with us! The possibilities are endless.
Super interesting. I would definitely try it for a hat or socks to know how many to cast on for my specific measurements based on my gauge. Or even with specific ideas of what type of stitches I want to use! Thanks for the video
Tayler. This was so cool. I would not have been interested until you asked it to create knitting patterns. I just made a generic pattern for my husband’s foot size and the pattern chat got was almost exactly the same. I will try their to see which is better. 😮 as always a great program.
Hmmm. The computer is only as smart as the info it is accessing or being fed. Reminds me of early days of computing where one computer was asked to translate into Russian "Out of sight, out of mind." It duly did. Then that Russian phrase was translated back into English and it read "Invisible idiot." Humans still have a lot more humour, creativity, sense of nuance and ability to know when a task is complete!
Yes Heather. Absolutely. Robots suck at nuance. 😉
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS it's data/knowledge without wisdom
@@heathergregg9975 I love that.
So, on the sock pattern, did it assume you wanted to knit two socks at once? I don't recall that it said to repeat for the other sock. I also wonder whether ChatGPT learns from its mistakes, so that the next time someone asks, has it already made revisions to the original answer? I'm really on the fence about this technology, so I really appreciate seeing it with something familiar to me. I'm an archival indexer (indexing old records not online). Recently, we used something similar to index a batch of records, and then us mere mortals reviewed what the software indexed. The process of indexing went a lot faster. No idea of how accurate the software was compared to human inputting the data. I do know the AI did struggle with a viewer box when the image wasn't perfectly straight, and it picked up other values (like native language) as names. I've only read a few bloggers who've addressed ChatGPT and its cousins, so I really appreciate your demonstrating this for us!
Fascinating! I have used chatGPT and I think that the more people interact with it the more it learns intelligently and will be increasingly accurate with its responses. For example after you asked about the Kitchener stitch being inside out, it has now learned and will disseminate this information correctly for next time. It could be very cool to see its applications but also could pose some conundrums. What a great presentation you gave in this video!
Thank you for watching Sheryl! And you're absolutely right. It learns from our input! 🥴
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS although I did ask it again about the kichener stitch and it still provided the incorrect answer. Then I told it that you had already asked the same question and that it corrected the answer for you. Hmmm. Maybe not so smart after all. 🤣🤣🤣
Wow. This is absolutely fascinating! I’m a librarian who works with taxonomy and searching, so using this in conjunction with knitting is right up my alley! Thanks for demoing this!! I think it could really aid in pattern design, as in make it more efficient? You’d obvs need to check, as you are doing, but wow! It could also encourage more folks to design patterns! I’m doing a blanket right now that I made up the pattern for, but using ChatGPT would’ve been so much easier, if I told it what I wanted and then it could do some of the math for me that I could then double check! I might try it out anyway and see what I get!
Wowza! Endless possibilities. Thanks for sharing. I’d never heard of it.
Get out of my head! I just finished playing with this and was currently trying to figure out how to use it for knitting!
Hello Tayler. Thank you for your podcasts. I thoroughly enjoy them. You always seem upbeat and happy and you cheered me up when I was snowed in recently for 4 days!! I was up for hours last night playing with Chat GPT. I had never heard of it and it was really interesting. AI concerns me in the wrong hand but there are definitely some benefits to it. I did note that it was programmed to not respond to questions that were inappropriate. There are mistakes, like you say. I asked it to give me some local wool suppliers in my area and it gave me a bedding store because they sell wool quilts and also gave me suppliers that were hundreds of miles away. I find the more specific you are the better it is. I asked for a pattern and decrease for a 96 stitch hat in worsted and it wrote a pattern that looked appropriate. I then asked for a shorter than 25 row decrease and it gave me a 23 row decrease, then a 21 row decrease, but when I asked it to give me a decrease under 10 rows it gave me a decrease for over 6 rows. I think there are lots of knitting related issues it could help with....if only it could write charts!! I bet if you give it a pattern for worsted weight it could adjust it for a different weights and sizes too.
I love watching your videos and really appreciate all the time and effort you put into the content and also making them really professionally. I have just started a RUclips channel in January and have been thinking about using some proper editing software. Do you mind if I ask what you program you use? Thanks so much for all your work. 😃ETA - I just found your video from Nov 2022. Thanks so much for already going through all this and providing so much information.
Very interesting, thanks to bring this subject up here in the knitting community 😊
I think this is very interesting indeed! My husband is an engineer and loves ChatGPT so I had mixed feelings about it designing a sweater pattern! Thanks for showing me another use for this future tool.
Wow, you have given us a lot to chew on Taylor. As a former university instructor, I am scared that ChatGPT will take over assignment-writing (probably already has). As a knitter, you have made me think about some interesting connections. I have head that it can adapt it's language to suit the question/user, and you have demonstrated this. I will watch the with new eyes.
It might be good for a game of sock/scarf/dishcloth pattern roulette. A group can have certain criteria to include in the pattern, but the contestant could add some design details to have the AI include. Then knit or crochet the object to the instructions and see what comes out.
Pretty cool stuff in any case.
My issue with this is that you can't see where the system is drawing it's answers from. Eg if you were writing an article it is good practice to site your sources. This doesn't do that
I completely agree. I share this concern.
Omg how incredible! My 11y old son just told me the other day he used it to create a story. I need to try this 🤩
I have never heard of ChatGPT so I definitely learned something through this video and I’m anxious to share it with my husband in the morning. I’m floored at the moment and really have to digest this information before I could give an opinion. Thank you for sharing this incredible technology and giving food for thought!
Thank you for talking about this app. This is very interesting. I wonder if a student could use this for their homework when writing an essay and would be considered plagiarism. Also, if a designer wants to use this to help them design a pattern, then wouldn't those designers have duplicate patterns... and would they be able to copyright a pattern created by this app? I hope I made sense here. I am going to have to try this app. It sounds like fun. Have a wonderful day Tayler! 🙂
Very interesting. I never would have thought to ask chatGPT for knitting instructions.
Thanks for the bonus video. I will definitely use this to calculate knitting and crocheting increases and also to help write product descriptions. So many ways to use this, I am sure. Anxious to read other suggestions.
This is so interesting. I kind of want to try knitting a pattern generated by ChapGPT now.
The thing to remember is that chatGPT isn't writing a pattern, it is collecting information from all over the internet. So it is using other people's work to give you answers to what you ask of it. The sources can be wrong/inaccurate and we have no idea if it is mindful of any kind of copyrights.
This is such a fascinating, and also worrying, concept. Thanks for exploring from a pattern perspective. It will be interesting to see how it develops. I was also interested that it said to turn the sock inside out for kitchener. I've used Roxanne Richardson's RUclips video for the Finchley graft, where you do turn the sock inside out.
Wow, this is amazing. So interesting, thank you for sharing!
Wow I would have never thought to ask yarn related questions! This was a fascinating video!
I'm my own chatgpt when it comes to knitting (I can use Google lol) but I'd like to try it for dinner recipes when I have a bunch of ingredients but no idea what to make with them.
Thank you so much for showing us this tool in action from a knitter’s POV. The way ChatGPT works for now, it has just as much opportunity to find the mistakes in all its data as find the right info, I guess. Of course, I am likely to find mistaken blog posts or tutorials out there, too, so there’s that. I really hope the creators find a way to include at least some of the source material it uses for each answer.
Wow! I’m terrible at math and it’s plagued me forever. The possibility of getting math questions answered is phenomenal!
The second you said you would ask it something people commonly forget I immediately was like “Kitchener stitch?” So you were spot-on!
Ha! Great minds, Hannah. ❤️
Thanks for sharing! This is an interesting thing to think about. It’s fascinating to see what technology can do and I’m interested to see how it’ll benefit creators and others.
Very cool. I wonder if now you corrected the ‘machine’ if the next time someone asks about a Kitchener stitch if it will have made the correction? 🤔
Hi Tayler - thanks for this interesting video. I have heard and seen ChatGPT but never really thought to use for knitting. I’m such a visual learner and have basically taught myself to knit with RUclips tutorials. I guess I don’t have a level of “trust” with ChatGPT that I have with expert knitters. 🤷🏻♀️
I’m very much the same Leslie. I’ll stick to human-generated tutorials for now because I’m just not there yet with ChatGPT. It’s more of a fun parlor trick for me right now. “Hey, watch ChatGPT write a poem about my dog!” 🤣
I wonder if it gave you the yarn amount you need to knit all three sizes.
Taylor! You are an awesome young lady! It must be your teaching background! Thank you so very much for giving us a brief tour of this
Thank you so much for this. And it’s my pleasure. ❤️❤️
Each time you use it, it is learning. Brilliant.
Ever since I heard about chatGPT, this is EXACTLY what I was wondering. Thank you for trying it out for me! :)
I have heard more about chatgpt this week and played with it a little tonight. I tried to design a sweater with it but correcting mistakes I would not trust it to give me a pattern to actually use. I’ll leave it to the designers and test knitters. It was fun just to confuse it though. Thank you for sharing.
You should totally do a series of asking ChatGPT to design a sweater for you and then follow the pattern through! Mistakes (if there are any) and all!
I have considered this. Oh, how I have considered this. 🥴
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS 😆 great minds....
Some one had it write a pattern for a crochet narwhal. It wasn't too terrible....
@@angrytrees7519 oh so interesting! fascinating space to be in right now for sure
If I want to know how to do something, I use google search and ask for how to do it. Then I choose the video option and choose from the options. That way I know the source and can see how something is done.
I love this idea. I have so much various yarn and have a hard time finding patterns for the yarn and needles I have. Can’t wait to play with this!!!
My high school daughter has been discussing in her ethics class. All essays will be written in class without laptops. Will definitely change college applications - interested to see how institutions will handle. Had not even occurred to me to try it for basic knitting patterns. Fun to explore. Thanks Tayler!
We will have to go back to teaching handwriting. As a retired teacher, I remember the year that was taken out of our curriculum.
@@michelleharrison5679 I have a granddaughter who never learned how to read or write cursive. She's now 23 and I have no idea how she gets by in life. She barely does and I can't help but think that because it was taken out of the curriculum, it truly stunted her growth in everything. Makes me so angry!!
I wonder if the yarn amount might be correct for al three pair of socks? I also wonder if it can read a pattern chart and convert it to words?
Great question!
Hi Tayler, wow, that was interesting. I’m curious if the corrections you asked about will be available when the question is asked again by someone else?
Thanks for sharing 🧶
I wonder if chatgpt could grade non size inclusive patterns so that they could fit me. That would be a great tool for designers
I am new to your channel (I've been binge watching while completing a sweater I started in 2019... xD) and I really enjoy your videos! Chat GPT wrote me a top-down in the round sweater pattern using my measurements. I'm so tempted to just try it and see what happens....
Thank you so much for watching and welcome to the channel! And I’d be very curious to know how your ChatGPT pattern plays out. 😃❤️
If you wrote a pattern and grade it with this? That would be great for pattern designers. This is cool.
Thank you for sharing. This is really fascinating and I was so excited to see a video today. I just found your channel recently and enjoy your videos very much.
What a fascinating discussion. I can see using it for a quick hat pattern when trying to use a new yarn. Hats can be tricky to size and perhaps this tech could help in a pinch. Thank you for starting the conversation. It will be interesting to read everyone's take on this.
I think it would be very interesting to ask it to write a pattern for something that is a little less standardized, like a cabled or a colorwork sweater. Even though it makes some mistakes, it seems to have the basics down pretty well, but cabled patterns tend to be pretty unique! Would a more complicated request mess up its ability to give a pattern that is even sweater shaped? I don't think that something like this would be that useful of a resource for beginners, as it is much more helpful to use a search engine to go to a source that you can trust isn't going to make mistakes.
Such a great explainer of ChatGPT in general - much easier to understand when you're looking at an example that's relevant to your interests. Thank you!
Thank you Aimee! I’m glad this helped a bit.
Fascinating! I’ll be interested to see where it goes. BTW have you looked for videos on YT to diagnose and fix your vacuum cleaner? My husband has found videos to fix pretty much everything, including broken cables in car window mechanisms, which also required taking the door apart and putting it back together. 😊 BTW YT has been showing me your early podcasts, and we ❤Oscar. 🐈⬛ My husband laughed out loud with the talking!
Fantastic t-shirt! This was my first time hearing about chatGPT. How fascinating!
I can think of all kinds of knitting applications. I’m old enough to remember when PCs came into regular use and people were up in arms…it happens. But good to address those concerns too.
Well, first the Spanish translation was pretty ok, good I would say if not every day language. But, I believe, that many business people are using this side for assistance, it could write a business document in seconds, they are using it for variety of things and it is mostly correct. It is all over, Spain for example, my friend asked to have a house designed.I personally did not think that it could be useful for me, but you proven me wrong. Thank you.
Whoa!! So many thoughts. I don’t think it would put anyone out of business because if people didn’t write the patterns or blogs, then it would have nothing to pull the info from right? It’s also kind of like crowdsourcing in we can improve it by corrections. I cracked up when you said you felt like you were imposing to keep asking for things😂, you are prob like me where I feel oddly bad when I don’t take directions from my iPhone and it is repeatedly telling me to reroute lol. Like sorry sorry! So interesting though.
Hey Tayler! Interesting concept for pattern writing. I was thinking of “muslin” making of the sweater pattern on a basic knitting machine to check Chat’s accuracy would be where a designer would start the design process. It would give an idea of stitch count and row count an fit before adding design elements. Do you know if you copied the text and pasted it into a word processing program could you edit that text? Something to look into maybe.
This was so much fun. I'm with you in that I find it fascinating. A tool for good or a tool for evil? Like with anything else out there on the 'inter-webs', probably potential for both. Be sure to let us know if it helps you fix your vacuum cleaner.
I don’t have to watch right now but I immediately added this to my watch later file!!!😮
Very interesting! Thank you for sharing!
Taylor, this is so great to have if not understanding a pattern etc
Thank you so much for your great share again !!! I will try this program out
Have a great day!!!💝
This is a great video and a practical review. I prefer that to vague, nebulous fears that don’t help anyone form an informed opinion.
We’ve also been discussing ChatGPT in Germany… the teachers are very worried about how testing and homework will take place. All the same, at the moment, the grammar is still a bit wonky at times (in German and English- we asked it to write a birthday card text), but I can see that being improved fairly quickly.
From your analysis, I’d be willing to speculate, that it might actually force more creativity and innovation on the part of knitwear designers, so more avant-garde and new techniques, like Olgajazzy, Stephen West, etc. and might force paid knitwear patterns off of websites. Test knitting will probably still continue to be a thing though.
This isn’t anything new though, as people with limited budgets have been searching for and finding free patterns online for a while now. The only thing is that there isn’t usually much pattern support.
That explanation of knitting in Spanish is surprisingly accurate. That translation is better than Google translate. Although take my assessment with a grain of salt since I’m not a native speaker but it’s my second language
Thanks, Tayler, I enjoyed this fun exploration.
thats actually pretty cool! most conect abour ai that ive interacted with has talked about the more unethical side of them. Like, about the ones that create art by being fed other peoples art work and then using it to create art in that person's style. but its really cool to see someone point out uses like this!
Maybe this could help sizing patterns or improving your own pattern - amazing video! Never would have had this idea to connect chatGPT with knitting. 🐑
