But I can complain about what happens to said something. If my blog photo becomes deep fake porn am I allowed to complain or not ? What we have is an entirely novel situation (with ai) worth at least a serious discussion.

There was a time when in the name of progress people were killed for whatever resources they possessed, others were enslaved etc. and I was under the impression that the measure of our civilization is that we actually DID care and just how

One of the biggest factors in risk of death right now is poverty. Also what is being chased right now is "human level on most economically viable tasks" because the automated research for solving physics etc. even now seems far-fe

Apparently the biggest mistake they made is to criticize Trump for Jan 6. It's ok, they apologized for that.

Well I don't know. A bit naive, a bit like sci-fi and aimed at raising money fits my description of bs quite well.

So it's bs but for money and therefore totally fine ? I think it's not ok if only a fraction comes true because some people believe in those things and act on those beliefs right now.

I actually agree with you. I was a bit sarcastic. If I understand correctly there isn't a fundamental difference when it comes to text output vs pixel data output in this context. If so then it suddenly sounds much more of a stretch (i

What ? Stable diffusion doesn't have an underlying understanding that humans typically have two arms, two hands and five fingers per hand gathered from vast sea of training data ? That's a bold statement.

With 3.6B people in the workforce I'd argue there isn't a billion people in need of a computer, not to mention an ai subscription plan. I'm of course assuming most subscriptions for ai are work related.

I wonder if those responses could already be influenced by the fact that the cutoff for some of the models out there was indeed 2023 and people wrote about it all over the internet.

Yes but this was just to make a blatant example. The questions still stands. If you feed a LLM certain kind of data is it possible it strays from it completely - like we sometimes do in cases big and small when we figure out how to do somet

This is truly the new model's answer ? It's pretty similar to 3.5's "reasoning" actually: In this context, "3.10" and "3.11" should be interpreted as decimal numbers, not as numbers with more dig

Why exactly is it insane ? To reliably differentiate (let's assume it's possible for the sake of argument) between "you made this" and "you didn't make this" or at least "a human made this" seems
