Visualize Idea Canvases
I have been creating over 100 designs in 100 days and got some requests if I could sell some of my designs in form of a canvas or desktop/phone wallpapers, so here we go. As I am a big fan of productivity, my designs will support you in becoming more creative, be inspired and just create an overall cozy workplace.
Each delivery comes with a "Thank You" letter and a personalized message, thus no box is the same, promise! Doesn't matter if you are an engineer, programmer, YouTuber or just a creative person in general - the designs are for everybody.⠀
Find all designs here: www.instagram.com/engineeredmind
Time from order to delivery: 1-2 weeks 📦
How to order: Just DM me on Instagram, Twitter or contact me via email!

Technology
DALL·E
DALL·E is a 12-billion parameter version of GPT-3 trained to generate images from text descriptions, using a dataset of text–image pairs. We’ve found that it has a diverse set of capabilities, including creating anthropomorphized versions of animals and objects, combining unrelated concepts in plausible ways, rendering text, and applying transformations to existing images.
The name is using a portmanteau of the artist Salvador Dalí and Pixar’s WALL·E.

The inexpensive, easy-to-use, and open-source system stands to democratize the study of neurological and musculoskeletal disorders and help doctors better identify, measure progress, and treat these disorders.
