How to keep it grounded ?

by Jayakumark - opened
@Jayakumark it's actually very grounded on it's own. mix checkpoints are finetuned on a variation of datasets including coco captions with text prompt of "caption" for each image, so you can just say caption and it will.
I asked "who is the guy in the suit" and it does say president
Thanks, so it looks like we need to have follow up prompts after the first one or do further finetuning .
