Yeah and it unfortunately succeeded, so I’m surprised it is still around.

What the hell kind of crap is that writing?

Also, I’m surprised this is even this a thing, I thought he’d abandoned the boring company years ago.

It’s a core problem with image generator LLMs. For some fucking reason they seem to have fed them the content from sites that had a lot of porn. Guessing Imgur and Deviantart.

Literally the first time I tried to use MS’s image generator, was out with some friends trying a new fried chicken place and we were discussing fake tinder profiles.

So I thought to try it and make a fake image of “woman senuously eating fried chicken”.
Content warning, blah blah blah.

Try “Man sensuously eating fried chicken”. Works fine.

We were all mystified by that. I went back a few days later to play around. Tried seeing what it didn’t like. Tried generating “woman relaxing at park”.
Again, content warning. Switch to a man, no problem. Eventually got it to generate with “woman enjoying sunset in a park.” Got a very dark image, because it generated a completely nude woman T-posing in the dark.

So, with that in hand I went back and started specifying “fully clothed” for a prompt involving the word “woman”. All of a sudden all of the prompts worked. They fed the bot so much porn that it defaulted women to being nude.

It was a work issue about a decade ago. Client wanted certain emails from automation to be masked as coming from him.

Most email boxes, including Gmail, didn’t have an issue. Outlook(the one that shipped with Office) laughed at it and displayed the original sender in giant bold letters.

Yay, does this mean that Google is going to stop saying the masked email address is the sender and hide the true email address?

You know, like MS has done for over 15 years now?

Sir Terry Pratchett.

A phenomenal author whose ability to weave a story is fantastic, but was also adept at writing in jokes and references that make re-reading the novels a delight.

At what point is a sauce not a curry, soup or drink?

Bug your indian friends by calling Ketchup a tomato curry.

You’re building beautiful straw men. They’re lies, but great job.

I said originally that we need to improve the interpretation of the model by AI, not just have even bigger models that will invariably have the same flaw as they do now.

Deterministic reliability is the end goal of that.

It’s an exaggeration, but its not far off given that Google literally has all of the web parsed at least once a day.

Reddit just sold off AI harvesting rights on all of its content to Google.

The problem is no longer model size. The problem is interpretation.

You can ask almost everyone on earth a simple deterministic math problem and you’ll get the right answer almost all of the time because they understand the principles behind it.

Until you can show deterministic understanding in AI, you have a glorified chat bot.

Will increasing the model actually help? Right now we’re dealing with LLMs that literally have the entire internet as a model. It is difficult to increase that.

Making a better way to process said model would be a much more substantive achievement. So that when particular details are needed it’s not just random chance that it gets it right.

Is amusing that bing moved their AI results to the bottom of the page.

Publicly insult and imply threats.

Nah its Google acting. The EU only cares when it is alone or particularly MS.

Seriously, they were blocking mention of competition (pixelfed) on threads before they launched their first attempt at federation.

But surely meta has good intentions and we should totally trust them guys!!1!

Live your life and enjoy what you can.

Be glad that you got to experience what you did.

If you have the funds, go tour things we know are vanishing, so that you at least have a living memory of them.

Hell, for 3k you could hire someone to haul a tent out to you. Maybe even air drop the damn thing to you.
The self-assembling tent I used to use was only $50.

They’ve been trying for at least 30 years, probably closer to 50-60 TBH.

One of the concepts they(RIAA/MPAA) were looking into for the entire CD/DVD era was the idea of a time-limited disk that would only work for a short period of time before becoming unreadable.

By the time they got it working, Steam was already a thing and distribution through physical media was on the way out.

Now they control movie theaters through streaming. They stream the movies to the theaters, the theaters rarely get physical or even digital copies anymore. It just gets streamed right to the projector.

No, but you’re not trying to sell your abilities to write things. The entire point of OpenAI as a company is to sell its LLM.

Monetization and adware.
