NFT by LinkedIn Founder Reid Hoffman– What is the buzz about it? A series of Solana-based NFTs are being released by billionaire tech entrepreneur Reid Hoffman, best known for launching the professional networking site LinkedIn. The NFTs are based on photos he generates using OpenAI’s DALL-E 2 artificial intelligence software.

Hoffman revealed the project on Twitter, stating that the first item would go up for sale on Magic Eden, the biggest Solana NFT marketplace. The project is called Untranslatable Words.

Untranslatable Words is a project that consists of 11 tokenized works of artwork that were produced by the computer program DALL-E 2, which creates artwork in response to written instructions.

For those unfamiliar with DALL-E2 Artificial Intelligence and Solana-based NFTs, let’s dig deep in.

NFT by LinkedIn Founder Reid Hoffman & DALL-E by OpenAI

The NFT by LinkedIn Founder Reid Hoffman has been created using DALL_E by OpenAI

OpenAI is an AI research and deployment company. Its mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity.

They originally came up with DALL-E: They trained a neural network called DALL·E that creates images from text captions for various concepts expressed in natural language.

DALL-E is capable of producing images in a variety of genres, such as paintings, emojis, and photorealistic artwork. Without explicit guidance, it can appropriately position design elements in innovative compositions and “manipulate and rearrange” things in its images.

It can be better explained by a few examples on the OpenAI website.

DALL-E2 by OpenAI

DALL-E2 is the latest software from OpenAI. DALL·E 2 is preferred over DALL·E 1 for its caption matching and photorealism

DALL·E 2 can make realistic edits to existing images from a natural language caption. It can add and remove elements while taking into account shadows, reflections, and textures.

DALL·E 2 began as a research project and is now available in beta to those who join their waitlist.
