Short answer: Jordan Metzner runs the same prompt through their in-house tool across Ideogram, Google, Flux and ByteDance; Sam Nadler notes the Google model got the text right. Jordan says Envato is still great for real stock photos.

From Episode 9: Hiring Tools, Built from Scratch, starting at 16:33.
Jordan Metzner [16:32]: Yeah. Where whereas, like, we could probably use our own, like, image generation tool that we showed on a previous podcast. Okay. I mean, like, we could just try that as an alternative here. So, all of these have text. All the text is spelled wrong. So, that doesn't really work very well. If we try our in house build tool, and let me just try to generate an image with, like, let's just say, like, Google. So I'll put this in here, the same prompt. I'll let but I just put the same one in into the Google model, and let's see kind of what comes out of it. And then we can go back to the Envato in just a second. But yeah. I mean, you can see that this is just a very rudimentary elementary space. See, still has a lot of text on it. And if you can just see, this is the Google model. Right?
Sam Nadler [17:19]: The it looks like the text worked in that model.
Jordan Metzner [17:21]: Yeah. Friday episode release. Listen now. I mean, all the text is good. We're we're not these two people. So that might be a problem. But overall, and we could try this like, if we go back to our image generator, we could try it, in multiple models. Okay. So the idea of this like wide model generator and if it works right is that you basically take one prompt. Yeah. It's looks like it's gonna work. And then what we do is we actually run it against, like, four different prompts simultaneously. And then with all of that, we should be able to get four different responses. So this is, like, Ideogram. This is Google. This is Flux. This is ByteDance. I didn't wanna spend like too much time on our image generation tool. You see, like, we're kinda
Sam Nadler [18:02]: There we go.
Jordan Metzner [18:02]: Yeah. Then Text is much better here. Built is better than this one, but anyway, you get the idea.
Sam Nadler [18:08]: So we'll we'll just use Envato for the kind of stock footage we've historically used it for, which continues to be less and less every day, to be honest.
Jordan Metzner [18:16]: If you need stock images or if you need, stock content, it's still, for stock photos, for example. Yeah. Here's a stock photography of office space. Like, it's still great for that stuff, and it's obviously all real. So, you really get a you get feedback if you need to throw that in there. But anyway, so yeah. Some you know, it's hard. AI is hard. We're on the cutting edge, and, I don't think we've seen, like, a silver bullet here that does one thing really, really well for everybody all the time.
Sam Nadler [18:43]: And in terms of news, what are we covering today?
