Abstract
Claims
1. A means for acquiring a first image, A first generation means generates a prompt, which is text information describing the content of the first image, based on the acquired first image. A second generation means generates a second image from a prompt generated by the first generation means, which is an image that reproduces the content described by the prompt, and has a smaller data size than the first image. A recording means for associating the prompt and the second image and recording them on a recording medium, A recording device characterized by comprising the following features.
2. The recording device according to claim 1, characterized in that the first generation means generates a prompt based on the first image using a generation AI model.
3. The recording device according to claim 1, characterized in that the second generation means generates the second image based on the prompt using a generation AI model.
4. The recording device according to claim 1, characterized in that the second image is a thumbnail image for simplified playback used when displaying a list of information related to the image recorded on the recording medium.
5. The recording device according to claim 1, characterized in that the second generation means generates the second image by referring to the first image in addition to the prompt.
6. The recording device according to claim 1, further comprising a third generation means for generating a third image of a different size from the second image based on the prompt, wherein the recording means records the prompt, the second image, and the third image in association.
7. The recording device according to claim 6, characterized in that the data size of the third image is smaller than the data size of the first image and larger than the data size of the second image.
8. The recording device according to claim 1, further comprising an editing means for editing the prompt by adding generation information when the second generation means generates a second image to the prompt.
9. The recording device according to claim 8, characterized in that the generated information includes at least one of the seed value in the generation of the second image and the model name of the generated AI model.
10. The recording device according to claim 1, characterized in that the acquisition means includes an imaging means for acquiring the first image by photography.
11. The acquisition process involves obtaining the first image, A first generation step of generating a prompt, which is text information describing the content of the first image, based on the acquired first image, A second generation step generates a second image from a prompt generated in the first generation step, which is an image that reproduces the content described by the prompt, and has a smaller data size than the first image. A recording step of associating the prompt with the second image and recording it on a recording medium, A control method for a recording device, characterized by having the following features.
12. A program for causing a computer to function as one of the means of a recording device according to any one of claims 1 to 10.
13. A computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to function as one of the means of the recording device described in any one of claims 1 to 10.
