Who bans you? Instagram? Reddit?

OpenAI. I assume they have some bot that scans the internet for images matching those they have generated, which don't show the logo.

This is interesting, because they give you full rights to use the images (but they keep the ownership).

>Use of Images. Subject to your compliance with these terms and our Content Policy, you may use Generations for any legal purpose, including for commercial use. This means you may sell your rights to the Generations you create, incorporate them into works such as books, websites, and presentations, and otherwise commercialize them.

I assumed that means you can derive on the generations as well. E.g. when you are creating game assets for yourself, you won't want to have the watermark on them in the game or screenshots of the game (which may be published on the web).

Also, how can it even work? I take a Generation that you posted on Instagram, crop the watermark, reupload it and you will get banned?

Like many others, it seems, I have also been blown away by DALL-E 2. When I got access on Sunday, I first tried a lot of different prompts and got some interesting results. One semirandom one, “A photograph of a professor playing a grand piano on a rainy night in Tokyo,” produced some very atmospheric images. I then went down a rabbit hole of variations on that prompt (“A painting of...,” “A line drawing of...,” “A p…

The images are very cool, but... uhh, why turn them into a video? You know there are ways to share images on the internet?

I just got access to the DALL-E 2 beta, and it's a ton of fun to make pictures out of everyday occurrences as prompts. Someone else here on HN observed that everyday people don't "get" how huge this all is. I experimented with asking random acquaintances at a local cafe for prompts and showed them the generated pictures. All but one person was totally unimpressed. If everything feels like magic, then what's one more…

I was generating some images of parrots for a friend that's into bird photography when it occurred to me, Prometheus stole fire from the gods and was sentenced to be pecked at by birds. Today is the first day of forever in the infinite aviary. Pictures of birds are no longer scarce. Every bird that ever was, is, or could be is mere key strokes away. When Prometheus stole fire, he couldn't have actually known what fir…

30 years ago, my dad and I watched a VGA demo on our IBM PS/2. We were blown away that there was enough color depth and resolution to see what was clearly a photograph, not an illustration. It appeared line by line. Someone had taken a photo, somehow digitized it, distributed it, and we were looking at a representation good enough that we could tell what it was. It felt like we were living in the future - me as a mid…

For me it was when I saw a taxi app on smartphone (it was not Uber, but… some clone? Predecessor? Even official taxi app? I don’t remember at this point). I can see where the taxi is now? I can see where he will go so he doesn’t cheat me?

I come from city that used to be known for cheating taxis… at that point I knew I will never go back.

Where can I get an invite?

You can go to https://labs.openai.com/waitlist and join a waiting list. I think most people here put that they are Developer.

I joined a month ago with no invite yet so it may take some time.

AFAIK it is free either after you get in. You will need to buy some tokens to generate images. See: https://mixed-news.com/en/openai-announces-pricing-for-dall-...

What if Google just at it to Google image search, and create new content for you without copyright?

I though of that but I think it's still wayyy too expensive. But I hope in a few years or even a few decades it will be the case

None of us are immune to that. The amount of magic we all rely on every day is incomprehensible. We just take it for granted that there is power to our house, the trains arrive on time, the bridge doesn’t collapse, the coffee tastes nice and costs little.

This document puts the sheer magnitude of DALL-E 2's knowledge of images into perspective. The same black box knows how to illustrate The Last Supper in the style of Quentin Blake, paint an ornate Late Baroque cat in sunglasses, compose a candid photo, draw a detailed blueprint... and so much more. DALL-E 2 knows more than a human ever could about imagery.

Whether or not this particular iteration of the model is 'good enough' to be widely applicable, or whether DALL-E 2 is 'creative', it's only a matter of time before the way humans interact with media is changed profoundly.

To be fair, this was a few weeks ago when they didn't offer commercial rights. Maybe they do it differently now (although if so, you'd expect them not to put the logo on downloads)
