Moneycontrol News December 1, 2023

Shekhar Dutt, co-founder of Sleepy Classes, asked ChatGPT to create a series of images depicting the life of a UPSC aspirant. The AI tool delivered – and how! Take a look:

[{"selector":"#anim-7ba200b5-abe1-4cba-958a-c131c0ac1ed0","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f1b50fc3-5a82-42bd-8044-b369d6575650","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-1aee0ace-7626-408f-98a3-71a014f97b37","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0d2dd9cf-3d5c-4947-8dad-5cf10db22baf","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -321.1111%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The first image shows the UPSC aspirant studying hard. His desk is covered with books and notes are stuck to the wall.

[{"selector":"#anim-f618e6dd-8ac3-4070-af94-eea63e9aaeb5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b3e76b74-8cdf-4cd3-910c-e6e1f570f0c9","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3a001347-126f-4730-a510-ab31b87d2463","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-08bab37b-0476-4362-820e-67520c60ae9f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-955c0f48-456f-4741-bbd7-24189af3c15c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -372.44192%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image credit: DuttShekhar/Twitter

“Where are the dishes in the room which is also the kitchen?” Dutt asked. ChatGPT added utensils to the already-overcrowded room.

“Okay now add some space to laundry clothes and make the student study while washing clothes.”

[{"selector":"#anim-af456807-eb73-40d0-86d0-ec0e6bee2040","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7c34de8f-0c34-44f3-b832-8c1e8e7a6a4f","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4f95cfc5-8970-42c8-bc2c-c84d684cb916","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6b78e90e-004d-4f94-b84c-444e48ce940c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b63a8a82-fccd-4c7b-a642-a6ebf578d0e3","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -397.66808%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image credit: DuttShekhar/Twitter

Tears are a part of preparation, and so Dutt further instructed ChatGPT to “show the student cry while studying in this room.”

[{"selector":"#anim-2301b065-993e-4898-9afc-5dd6e67989e4","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e72f4f97-ef51-40ff-b7f7-db218027eeb1","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8e30971a-8006-405a-af1a-6ed749b12a90","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4737a1db-bc75-4807-a533-b50a42c1611d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-93c757be-f8df-4ddd-9d0a-6dfe280ad25b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -363.8113%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image credit: DuttShekhar/Twitter

Next, he asked the AI tool to age the student a bit “showing years have passed as he still prepares.”

[{"selector":"#anim-8414b127-3e0b-40aa-aae9-349cfb58c696","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a4f4511c-3b18-4353-a50a-8a9df9100116","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5988be04-2f55-40c2-afc5-a663651b3a81","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2780d1ab-9a17-44e5-8dec-e837aa2fb514","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ed0b1ff4-a548-4272-b855-07bc464c71af","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -357.87286%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image credit: DuttShekhar/Twitter

With the passage of time, the student becomes a teacher at a coaching institute to sustain himself.

Finally, Dutt presented two endings to his story – in one, the former UPSC aspirant finds happiness with his learning and his students.

[{"selector":"#anim-9f7c4953-2fe1-4047-9ebe-26f3446bb76c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-bc66a94f-0722-439d-bfbc-ff4bb441336d","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3f8e80d4-bcb5-406a-a5cf-d3d02a31c993","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d98c4470-c8b2-4088-8ceb-b4f4a476739d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-88c4b155-0dfd-4fa0-b8aa-f483a8c31a3f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -361.14247%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":700,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image credit: DuttShekhar/Twitter

And in the other, his parents are super proud when he clears the exam and is selected as an officer.
