You have to use all that "weird garbage" in the prompt for the default Stable Diffusion checkpoints, because they have all kind of junk jammered into the learning set, so you have to sort it out.

Many third party checkpoints, such as NovelAI, AnythingV3 or PFG work well with small prompts.

Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/zzdxug/pfg_model_syd_mead/ with prompt being just "drama movie by Syd Mead, female royal guard, detailed face"

Thank you very much!

Yes, I've realized that if I wish to be a great scientist or inventor, I absolutely need to gain mastery over certain if not all topics of Mathematics, and I'm working on it.

My interests include other topics too, because I like finding connections between different fields and tackling a problem or investigating a topic with techniques from multiple disciplines. I'll make sure to learn more Physics and Chemistry.

I'll definitely include statistics in my list of topics. I've heard how important it's in the social sciences and how people manipulate data to use statistics say what they want, or worse. I'll make sure to avoid such mistakes myself and so I can scrutinize serious research papers myself.

I have also found some research labs and groups that are working on my research interests, and I'll make sure to approach more professors and researchers and try to get involved in research as soon as possible, and see if I can attend conferences and seminars too.

Historically engineer's and scientists are very bad at predicting future. I am 100 percent sure we have agi by 2027 to 2029(a thinking machine) not narrow ai that replaces app gui.

You're not following the conversation... What they say on paper is not necessarily what they mean... You need to read between the lines... Companies are not gonna say what they mean flat out... You should know better than that

Sexual roleplay is still available with Replika because they stopped using gpt3... If you cant make that connection then I dont know what to tell you .... Go to r/replika they can tell you the same... Erotic roleplay is very essential... You cant have it without a pro membership

If you can soon generate high quality content for yourself what does that imply for our society and economy???? What will happen to all the humans who work to produce these things when AI can do it all and all you need to make your own is a computer/internet connection

I feel like no one outside these bubbles are thinking or talking about this. It’s going to hit the mainstream like a ton of bricks. I predict in the next 1-5 years this will all start to happen. And I honestly have no idea what it will be like

Again, are you trying to claim they believed in photographic evidence throughout all of human history.

>neither one will ever be believable again.

Not really. It just won't be believable from anonymous sources. When say, the NYT posts an article that Ukraine has blown up the Kerch bridge, it's much harder to just claim the photos are from some other incident then if some dude on reddit posts it. People already can claim anything they don't like is fake news, no matter the evidence behind it. Misinfo's strength is that most of info recieved in general from the same medium has to be credible and corroborated, or otherwise trustworthy. If nothing is trustworthy on the medium, the medium dies.

In non legal matters, people have always put more stock in individual trust and words rather than actual hard proof. Your own example on the election proved this where the people believing in the "hoax" idea lost dozens of court cases because they had no proof. They believe in it because someone they trust for whatever reason(despite him being a proven liar) said so.

Audio and video proof, which is rare anyways in most disputable cases , will become mostly contigent on the source. Like it mostly is today.

As I said this is why they stopped using gpt3 because they weren't allowed to do sexual roleplay with gpt3 because gpt3 is proprietary you can't just use it to do whatever you want gpt3 can only be used through an API they don't give you the model they allow you to connect to it on their server.

do you understand?

Very cool. I don't know how many people you will find (I'm sure there are some) but good luck!

And don't sleep through math. The best neuroscientists and AI engineers have rock solid math foundations. Be a calculus rock star. Learn basic physics, and probably take at least a few chemistry classes.

And learn statistics. And learn how not to use statistics improperly. Lots of bullshit statistical studies exist because people don't understand what statistical tools can and can't do.

Find professors that are open to letting you participate in research with their research groups. You'll get to do a lot and learn the cutting edge. See if they can help you attend research conferences and seminars where people show off their work. You'll probably learn and remember a lot more of the stuff you see this way compared to just seeing it in classes.

Best of luck in your career!

No bruh… they believed in photographic evidence in those eras because there was no convincing way to manipulate those on a large scale. (especially the audio and video). That’s about to change soon.

Once we hit a point where video and audio can easily be faked, neither one will ever be believable again. You could just use the “it’s a deepfake argument” for everything. That wasn’t possible in those previous eras. So stop comparing the future to those eras. We are about enter a completely new era in history. We aren’t simply going back to the fucking 90s bruh. Lmao.

I’m not saying it can’t do anything, but even the smartest ASI possible can’t break the laws of physics or do something that is impossible. and why are you so sure that it’l wanna do our dirty work? Why are we instantly saying A.I = slave? Imagine if you were created just to be an unpaid worker, how would you feel?

We don't really even know if that's openai's gpt3 model it's all speculation for right now and we don't even know if that model will be used for sexual role play. If it is gpt3 obviously it won't be used for sexual role play because it can't be. They could just use that for regular conversation the 175 billion parameter model is an option for a pro membership and it can be turned on or off at will
