Strengthening & Weakening Vectors

You can control the AI’s finer focus during a generation by encasing the text you want to emphasize or weaken with { } for strength, and [ ] for weakening.

This works both in the Text Prompt and in the Undesired Content field.

Examples

1girl, black hair, [[[chibi]]], catgirl under a cherry blossom tree

1girl, black hair, chibi, catgirl under a cherry blossom tree

1girl, black hair, {{{chibi}}}, catgirl under a cherry blossom tree

How it works

The weight of AI focus will be multiplied by 1.05 if you enclose the tags or text you want the AI to focus on more with { and }.

The weight of AI focus will be divided by 1.05 if you enclose the tags or text you want the AI to focus on less with [ and ].

Multiple { or [ inside another will multiply the weight each time, so {{ would result in the enclosed part of the prompt being weighted by 1.1025.

Note

Technically, every { or ] acts as a x1.05 focus multiplier to everything that's to their right,
and every } or [ acts as a x0.95 focus multiplier to everything that's to their right.
By properly enclosing tags, you essentially apply a multiplication to their focus and then cancel it out.
This means you don't need to use those at the very end of the prompt, since there'd be nothing to their right.

Either way, a good practice is to always close out any strengthening or weakening symbols you use with an equal amount of opposing symbols, but any complex combination will work according to each symbol's values.
