I uploaded a digital painting, selected "Edit mode", added a generation frame and prompted "complete the painting in frame" ...but it just added a completed unrelated photo related to painting in that frame.

> I can only guess either safety from misuse I still don't understand what this would mean. Where are all of the terrible things that were supposed to happen, now that Stable Diffusion is available? We've been able to create completely photorealistic fiction for decades now. See any movie with CGI for an example of whole worlds, and people, that don't exist. The bar has gradually been lowering (see the amazing CGI th…
Stable Diffusion allows anyone to make kiddie porn with a half-second of curiosity/effort. Maybe you didn't know about that, maybe you think it's NBD, but in any case, that is the tire fire which aspiring AI majors want to avoid.

I don't follow this stuff very closely - is there any open-source model for text generation that outclasses GPT-3? Stable Diffusion has been released for barely a week and already seems like the clear winner. It doesn't seem like any of the open (actually open) text models have made as much of a splash. Of course maybe it's just because text is less visually impressive than images.
They’re just harder to run on your own resources, since large language models are very large. BLOOM was released a month ago, is likely better than GPT-3 in quality, and requires 8 A100s for inference, which pretty much no one has on their desk.

Doesn't make sense to me why OpenAI has kept DALL-E closed source for so long. I can only guess either safety from misuse or leveraging it for money. At this rate though, Stable Diffusion is going to dwarf it
Wasn't OpenAI supposed to "democratize deep learning"? It seems more like they were trying to accomplish the opposite.
And being so open they first lock the model up and charge a fee, so anyone can pay. Just spreading democracy through paid API calls. /s
I was a bit mean, they did kick the field in the butt and pushed us ahead even with all the stubbornness and secrecy. But now they are just holding us back.
Meanwhile someone has already built a photoshop plugin for Stable Diffusion that you can use today to do basically the _exact_ same thing: https://old.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/wyduk1/sho...
re: Stable Diffusion: is there a site similar to https://www.craiyon.com/ where I can experiment with Stable Diffusion?

Funny thing is that people didn't stand still and invented diffusion and other CLIP guided image synthesis methods, and DALL-E 2 copied the method, completely changing from the first architecture.
Their arrogance is that they think they can ride the dragon. They want to be the ones to discover, advance it, and control it. But everyone else doesn't have time for that shit.

> sama is very active in YC and makes the call on OpenAI product roadmap. Furthermore YC encourages good CEO-community relations Sam hasn't been at YC in years and (based on anything I've seen) isn't active in YC at all. As for "YC encourages good CEO-community relations", I have no idea what that means* but it has nothing to do with HN. We encourage good content -community relations and that's it. You have a long hi…

It's sort of both. OpenAI, being an outgrowth of the AI doomerist community, does have a bunch of people who really do think the technology is too dangerous to be given to the masses. This happens to mesh perfectly with the other group of people at OpenAI who want to make tons of revenue. It's a harmonious alignment for everyone! Except, y'know, us.
