A free service trained on millions of lines of text OpenAI didn't create. Entitlement indeed.

Science doesn't require popularity, so it's not the main goal typically.

It’s so concerning all the stuff I read to stay up to date with the world, then once in a while I’ll see something not just in my industry but where you work that feels so totally disconnected from reality you can’t help but wonder how much of this well meaning, but just plain wrong stuff I’m reading is.

There was so much staff just for hiring in the growth times it was ridiculous. No kidding that wasn’t going to last.

These companies are always placing risky side bets to grow different business that of course are going to get looked at when things aren’t growing at 50%. Those people I feel legit sorry for, but it’s a small percentage overall, so you got to put it into perspective.

It takes years to get good at this stuff and learn these systems. What is not talked about is sometimes the people that get hit in these things are the one who let their skill set go, or try to hide in the system via transfers, or maybe just got burnt out as the pace is intense.

At no time do I feel brought to heel. We’re adults, hey the freewheeling time is over for awhile we need to buckle down. Anyone who has been in the Industry for awhile knows these cycles happen every five years or so. The good times will be back sooner or later and no need to be high drama. The world is not getting less technical.

Meh I want something other than Android or iOS, which I know won't be happening anytime soon.

They want us anxious and paranoid.

Laughs in LLC. They only make people regroup into their own power house that costs less and creates more.

Inside job. Someone's going to die from this thing because someone could hide it in their favorite chair.

The paper explains what the ones at the top were from. It's using Stable Diffusion 1.4. See page 7: Case Study: Stable Diffusion, page 14: C. Stable Diffusion settings, and page 15 for the prompts and match captions. Sorry, the rest of your comment is incomprehensible to me...

Seems like Much Ado about Nothing. /s

Your basic argument is again, just like their prohibition analogy.

Twilio isn't performing good or bad deeds in this context - they're offering a service. The service is being taken advantage of by good and bad actors. By the logic you're presenting, we might as well shut down all telecommunications entirely, or any form of electronic communication that could be used by bad actors. Who cares if good stuff is being done with it if bad actors are being supported as well?(/s)

Sure, I'm fine with penalizing Twilio for not making sufficient efforts to block bad actors. In fact they SHOULD be made to provide information and proof on the efforts they take to mitigate bad actors, and penalized if those efforts are not sufficient. But bad actors will always find loopholes and ways to get through - it's not a one-time-fix scenario.

Any penalties should be financial however, not just outright shutting down the company. And it's totally fine if penalties are steep - I'm in the camp that believes corporate fines should be a % of revenue, instead of a flat amount, so they can't be written off as a "cost of doing business".

Shutting them down entirely for simply being a telecommunication service/API doesn't address the root of the problem in any case, since bad actors would just move to various other platforms (MessageBird, Plivo, etc.), which would debatably have even less capacity/capability for detecting bad actors, due to being smaller and having less potential resources to put towards doing so.

There is a flaw in that statement. If an employer could hire someone from India or Estonia they would have already done it to save money. The working class hold all the cards but are too disorganized and misinformed to use them.

I was talking about OpenAI's GPT AI (ChatGPT, GPT3.5 / GPT4)

If that's not what the response is about then i guess it doesn't apply to what I said.. But OpenAI's GPT isn't internet connected, it learned by being fed all the information in a huge training round. After that the model is solidified and open for queries.

I’m a dev and I won’t join a union. Two years is the maximum I would work at a company - big Google or tiny startup, on average it is 2 years per company (for me). It is quite common in the tech industry. I don’t want to be bound by salary ceiling based on seniority, like so many other unions work. I don’t want to pay union dues. There probably other reasons as well. Like heck, if you got canned, really what seems to be problem here? There are lots of job for techies out there. It probably won’t as much as Google did, but that’s fine, still it ain’t like there aren’t jobs out there.

Okay so deepminds creator is wrong is what you're saying??

Because I've seen people saying the exact opposite 🤷‍♀️ I think there's a lot of people who dont know wtf they're talking about 😅 but almost everyone in IT has pointed this out and anyone who doesn't really know, is saying shit like they do 🤣

So basic interwebz...

P.s. if memory was all it had (which is what the internet basically is) then it wouldn't have the ability to learn. Which is what separates AI from...the cloud.

I goofed. After 2021.

It’s true, this isn’t too much different than the API they’ve been offering for a year. The difference is their “playground” was hard to use and was confusing. It made it seem like you needed to provide an example for each prompt.

I’m guessing these guys aren’t the UI/UX-minded part of the company. People who aren’t in that mindset can struggle to understand to why users are seeing their product differently than they are.

Apple: why are cell phone sales down so much this year??!?!?

Also apple:

I think you are correct. I'm a terrible AI.

The entitlement is mind blowing. The selfless “charity” of using a free service.

"now just run that through an image generation AI and... Oh... oh, no!"

my whole company would rapidly collapse if this happened lol

Agree, it's not as if this hasn't likely happened before.

Recession to the wealthy just means everything is on sale. They can't make as much money with slow and steady growth. They want to buy on the dip they engineered.

I see, so was trying to wall you into a corner and then inform you that ChatGPT does not have internet access for information.. It was trained on information in 2021 and before. Everything it has now is from memory. As with all AI models.

I don't know exactly what they do prompt wise, but i know they fine tuned the settings to be more, social.

Their API backend is "playground", lets you choose a model (GPT3 / ChatGPT is their top right now), but also lets you set the "temperature", "Frequency", and "presence" settings that can make it more attune to building stories and the like..

What i meant by manipulate the whole prompt is that you get 4096 Tokens to play with and when you ask ChatGPT to rewrite a paragraph, it feeds the prior conversation through with it... So it can get weird, in the playground you can strip your extra prompts from the scope and it has a much easier time remembering places and people..

One story i wrote even brought back 2 characters from a minor interaction chapters before..
