"Various films." I hope you're not thinking what I think you're thinking.
You can bet your life savings that OpenAI could generate some really interesting Kermit porn.

#102I see a distinct lack of "Kermit The Frog in Dragon Ball Z".
Oh man. Now I want to apply for access just for that. Thanks for the idea.

#103How is this so good? If you told me this was done by a very talented human, I’d still be surprised at how good they are. That must count as a sort of Turing test, no?
DALL-E is indeed superhuman in its ability to create images from simple prompts.
This shows the limits of the Turing test. To pass it a program must not only be smart enough, it must be dumb enough too.
Pulling what DALL-E does is a tell-tale sign it’s most likely not human, and would make it fail the test.

#104The amount of creativity here is astounding. Just imagine all the decisions the AI made in incorporating Kermit into the movies: the clothing it's chosen, how the character wears the clothing, the facial expressions, how to make Kermit himself look similar to the other movies characters. Should he be lanky? pudgy? Even simple decisions like obliviously Kermit in Wall-E is going to be a robot, it has to figure out what he looks like as a robot, what his mouth looks like, that his eyes should be enlarged.
It gets a lot of things wrong, like I'm not sure why kermit has a plastic texture in many of the pictures. If you showed me ten pictures of Kermit and ten frames of total recall, and for some reason 8 of your pictures had a plastic Kermit, and asked me to combine them in my head, I'd probably imagine something on-par or worse than what Dalle has managed to do. But I wouldn't be able to show anyone what I'd made!

#105man look at this amazing curve fitting from training samples

#106This is THE technology of the 2020s. It's insane. I'm in absolute awe at how amazing this AI is.
Disagree — GPT-3 type AIs are.
But people who do viral news and posts don't...read. So, their impact will continue to go unnoticed in comparison to DeEpFaKeS and Dall-E.

#107Not to detract from the accomplishment, but none of these are Kermit. The "Kermit" part of the query seems mostly to have accomplished querying for "humanoid frog"
No those are clearly Kermit the Frogs
Instead of arguing about "what is" in re: subjective judgements, it can sometimes be useful to phrase things more literally, as in:
"To me those are clearly Kermit the Frogs."
"To me those are clearly not Kermit the Frogs."
Then there's nothing really to argue about. Instead we can discuss what we see and how that affects our subjective perceptions.
For example, Kermit the Frog doesn't have eyelids, but most of these images show a frog with eyelids.

These are crazy takes honestly
Agreed. They are self-evident, high-quality representations of KtF. When faced with disagreement on that, it's hard to know what to say in response to convince someone other than to point to another canonical representation of KtF and say, "These are the same."
The OP pointed specific examples:
> - For any of the "live action" ones, Kermit should still always be a puppet. - Kermit notoriously has lanky arms, - Kermit never has eye lids - His eyes sit way on top of his head. - He often has his weird neck decoration. - His eyes have a very distinctive pupil shape.

I'm imagining the defense will be: "Your honor, it can't be infringement because I ran it through an ML model first." Especially if the movie(s) that are eventually generated this way are ripping whole scenes or sequences out of other films, a la copilot.
I feel like if they don’t have licenses for all of their source material, then the model should be required to be released into the public domain. It’s like extremely expensive piracy that is bad for artists and bad for the environment. I wonder if the reason OpenAI, Google, etc don’t release these things isn’t so much that they’re worried about racist/offensive output, but instead they’re worried about people using…
Being bad for artists and the environment is not illegal.
If you look at a movie poster, your brain does not need to be released in the public domain. Even if you sketch it from memory.

If I draw "Neo from the Matrix" does it matter how accurate I get Neo?
If you drew it yourself there’s precedent under fair use. If you made something that drew it when prompted for “The Matrix” presumably it knows what that is and therefore is more ambiguous
