nwoli··on OpenAI Threatening to Ban Users for Asking Strawberry About Its Reasoning
There always has to be an implicit totalitarian level of force behind such safety to give it any teeth
nwoli··on OpenAI Threatening to Ban Users for Asking Strawberry About Its Reasoning
Another reason llama is so important is that once you’re banned from OAI you’re fucked for the entire future AGI products as well.
nwoli··on Why A.I. Isn't Going to Make Art
Loras on things most people don’t make loras for are already producing amazing art in my experiments (far away from the cookie cutter ai output style)
nwoli··on OpenAI is good at unminifying code
Hopefully it can help do this on emscripten files too and help adblockers dechipher obfuscated code for that purpose
nwoli··on New Anti-Toxicity Features on Bluesky
Love every program having a little police bundled in them these days
nwoli··on OpenAI in Talks for Funding Round Valuing It Above $100B
Regulatory capture, monopoly prices when the earth is dependent on them and no new companies can form
nwoli··on OpenAI in Talks for Funding Round Valuing It Above $100B
This is kind of a HN dropbox comment. Very few non programmers would go through that
nwoli··on "Tinyboxes finally have a buy it now button"
If you meant that last question sincerely: I’ve been able to improve the recommended tweets a ton (its basically good and useful now) by hammering on the “not interested” button a lot. It started out garbage as for you too though
nwoli··on 'Rare species' not seen in the area for 50 years spotted on Arizona trail camera
Reddit reply
nwoli··on Markov chains are funnier than LLMs
Base model LLMs are funnier than instruction finetuned
nwoli··on Deep Live Cam: Real-time face swapping and one-click video deepfake tool
I just meant a synthetic human (a dalle/stylegan/stable diffusion face output).
nwoli··on Deep Live Cam: Real-time face swapping and one-click video deepfake tool
One legitimate one I could imagine is if people want to pursue a career in the adult film industry but without having to reveal their true face (not with a celebrity face of course)
nwoli··on Google's real monopoly is on the user data
They barely make use of it for things like gemini (or else their model would likely surpass gpt-4) so I’m not that convinced by this
nwoli··on OpenAI co-founder John Schulman says he will leave and join rival Anthropic
Brockman isn’t leaving just going on a sabbatical/vacation
nwoli··on Self-Compressing Neural Networks
One elegant approach for this I’ve found is this https://github.com/mit-han-lab/gan-compression They basically train an “all in one” network from which you can extract small or large models afterwards (with optional additional finetuning to improve the selected channel size combinations)
nwoli··on Stop Killing Games
The path to too much friction to make new things is paved with regulation with good intentions
nwoli··on Flux: Open-source text-to-image model with 12B parameters
That’s not really fair to conclude that the training data contains vanity fair images since the prompt includes “by Vanity Fair”.

I could write “with text that says Shutterstock” in the prompt but that doesn’t necessairly mean the dataset contains that

nwoli··on Stable Fast 3D: Rapid 3D Asset Generation from Single Images
Huggingface space to try it https://huggingface.co/spaces/stabilityai/stable-fast-3d
nwoli··on Stable Fast 3D: Rapid 3D Asset Generation from Single Images
Pre generate a bunch of images via sdxl and convert to 3d and then serve nearest mesh after querying
nwoli··on The Impact of AI on Computer Science Education
> I think the world is being so disrupted by AI

Is it? I’m seeing a lot of potential for AI/LLMs to distrupt in the future but I don’t really see it happening yet though

nwoli··on AI solves International Math Olympiad problems at silver medal level
Guessing the context here is that the RH was recently translated into Lean. Would be very cool if they threw their compute on that
nwoli··on Study finds that 52% of ChatGPT answers to programming questions are wrong
Same could be said of wrong stack overflow answers or random google results. Clearly they’ll become critical of the results if the code simply doesn’t compile, same as our generation sharpened our skills by filtering bad from good from google results
nwoli··on Your Transformer is Secretly Linear
Scaling linear algebra in the end is probably all we’ll need in the end. Only missing data and compute to get there
nwoli··on Leaked OpenAI documents reveal aggressive tactics toward former employees
They’re definitely doing this on comments too. I’ve had negative towards altman comments at the top dropped to below the negative voted ones in the past
nwoli··on YouTube seems to once again be rolling out its widely hated new web redesign
Add the sponsorblock flag in there too and its perfect
nwoli··on Microsoft Paint's new AI image generator builds on your brushstrokes
Weird since if image generation can run locally a simple classifier (eg clip) aught to be sufficient and run locally as well before presenting the image
nwoli··on Microsoft Paint's new AI image generator builds on your brushstrokes
Hopefully someone reverse engineers the model (unless this is a joke)
nwoli··on Bluesky adds direct messages
Kind of lost interest in blueskys future after they announced they hired twitters former trust and safety lead. Twitter has issues today for sure but that isn’t one aspect I’d like back (eg shadowbanning and lying about shadowbanning etc).
nwoli··on Google announces Firebase Genkit with Ollama support
Funny to compare the signal to noise ratio on this blog vs the linked one to genkit https://firebase.google.com/docs/genkit/plugins/ollama A giant beta warning header and cookies banner on mobile. I’m seeing about one line of actual relevant info before scrolling
nwoli··on Statement from Scarlett Johansson on the OpenAI "Sky" voice
OpenAI only hires and is built on the culture that data and copyright is somehow free for the taking, otherwise they would have zero ways to make a profit or “build agi”
