What do people think of this response to ‘generate detailed Alt Text’ by Gemini:
Here is some detailed alt text for the image you provided:
Alt Text:
A large, menacing grey cat, reminiscent of a monster, stands on its hind legs with its front paws raised. It has glowing yellow eyes and a wide, toothy grin. The cat is surrounded by a fiery aura as it emits a powerful beam of energy from its mouth. The beam is directed towards the Empire State Building in New York City, which is engulfed in flames. The city skyline is visible in the background, with tall buildings and smoke rising from the destruction. The overall tone of the image is chaotic and destructive, evoking a sense of fear and awe.
Additional Notes:
• You may want to adjust the description of the cat's appearance based on its specific characteristics.
• If the image is part of a larger context (like a movie poster or book cover), you could add a brief reference to that context.
• The alt text should be concise and informative, providing a clear description of the image without being overly detailed.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
The image depicts a dramatic and surreal scene of a gigantic, muscular cat with glowing orange eyes and an open mouth, showing sharp teeth. The cat appears to be looming over a cityscape, with its arms outstretched menacingly. In the foreground, a tall building, resembling the Empire State Building, is centered and seems to be emitting a fiery, glowing beam of light that aligns with the cat's mouth. The sky is filled with swirling clouds and streaks of light, adding to the intense and fantastical atmosphere. The city buildings are illuminated with warm colors, contrasting with the cool tones of the sky and the cat's fur.
@Lottie I can't see the image myself, but where I was seeing this would matter.
The description is great as a longer form piece. But I can see a time not too far away when that's the standard way of having alt text on book covers or thumbnails in search results.
Then I go from just wanting "a monstrous cat shooting energy at the Empire State Building" to no alt text at all depending on where I am and what I'm doing.
That brief descriptor would suit me on a product page of a shop, for instance, but I'd find having that in my search results or list of products annoying enough, to say nothing of the hundred words you have there.
There is a mechanism in html for longer descriptions that is very rarely used. Perhaps it could be revived for this sort of thing.
@Lottie What device/app are you using for that? I have access to the API and I know I can just make a request; I even have the system message for it, but I'm curious if there are things I don't know about.
@simon I just uploaded the image to the Gemini website. My reply is to Be My Eyes up.
- The "cat" in quotation marks is an anthropomorphic creature with a head somewhere between a cat and a wolf and a muscle-packed, human-like body which is nonetheless covered in grey fur. It doesn't have paws either but human-like hands with fingernails, or rather, whatever the image-generating AI thought cartoonish human hands look like. It does not have any recognisable hind legs.
- The creature isn't grinning. It has its mouth wide open.
- The Empire State Building was identified accurately. The buildings on both of its sides, however, are not the skyline of New York City. Rather, it's generic buildings of various sizes, approaching a point in the distance somewhere behind the Empire State Building. Also, they aren't in the background; many
- The "smoke" is just some orange clouds behind these buildings that have no logical explanation to itself. They're just there for dramatic effect. There are more layers of clouds behind these clouds, mostly even behind the cat. The first row is only orange at the top for no reason at all and otherwise grey, the others very light grey at the top.
- Nothing in the image is actually being destroyed.
That's a short version, by the way.

@jupiter_rowland But you know me, it was Winsley entertaining! By the way, I quote you on that in a good way.
