I find the picture to be quite disturbing, though not because of the skin color.
Right, but it's no more disturbing than the average mis-aligned output from DALLE-2. (Princess Peach is humanoid, not a squirrel). The parent comment is welcome to correct me, but given the context of their comment I feel like it should be flagged. At the very least for inciting a toxic flamewar; but really it's just racist. This isn't 4chan.

Microsoft is using already released products. ChatGPT and DALL-E have been in beta for a while.
Bing was the first GPT-4 instance available (yes, ChatGPT was already out, but not using GPT-4, and even the direct interface from OpenAI was opened after Bing.)

Midjourney, DALL-E, and many of these generative AIs have reached human-level for a long time. The problem is - unlike a human - it's pretty hard to get them to do something close to what you have in mind. Sure, if you try a few dozen prompts - you'll probably eventually get something close to what you want. And considering the cost of this will approach free - it's going to be hard for artists to compete. I tried ge…
I reckon we’ll move out of the prompt difficulty phase you mention simply when the context window gets big enough. If you were able to give midjourney a short textual instruction, a hand drawn sketch and a reference image from a human artist all together as a prompt then I’m pretty sure it could produce the image of a boy doing a high jump as you intent. We already see extended length multimedia prompts in GPT4 so it…
From everything I tried, the results were worse.
Again, I think this is going to remain a problem for a long time - but it will probably improve slightly with each iteration. Either way there's so many use cases where the cost-benefit will massively favor AI generated art, and I think the % of cases will continue to increase - albeit slowly.
Similar to self-driving cars - they've been in limited availability in Phoenix for a long time, and now SF. The list of cities will grow, and the limitations will decrease - but I still can't see the vast majority of trips being self-driven within the next 20 years.
In the same way, I don't see AI generating the vast majority of Pixar films in 20 years. Nor AI generating Marvel comic strips or kids cartoons. Etc.
Sure - some people will be using it for these use cases. They already are, and were before GPT.
I don't see this killing jobs, but limiting job growth instead.

HN guideline: Assume good faith.
I'm gonna avoid this thread for now, in any case. Don't need someone telling me I'm a triggered snowflake.

> OpenAI has massive power to censor what people can reason about with GPT. This is like saying, the transportation of has massive power to censor where people can travel about within a bus. GPT is a tool for reasoning, but humans need to be able to reason on their own! and by using multiple tools! Of course every tool should help and enhance every human, but every tool has its limitations. There is nothing unethical…
> This is like saying, the transportation of has massive power to censor where people can travel about within a bus. They in fact do and land value (hence real estate), is deeply impacted by transportation reach and frequency decisions. It also creates a corruption issue with businesses trying to influence politicians to make changes in their favor.
My point is nothing your saying is new or specific to OpenAI. These are problems with Capitalism and its influence over populations.
It is an important conversation, but a distinct and orthogonal conversation that is distracted by involving AI.
Re: Bing Image Creator
#117This could indeed be a wrapper for something like Dall-E 2. Like the latter, they seem to occasionally force some images to be (what US Americans consider) "diverse", i.e. making figures black even when it makes no sense. The results can be quite disturbing: https://www.bing.com/images/create/princess-peach2c-portrait...

Yes. OpenAI is quickly becoming the thought police through ChatGPT. Yesterday I asked it to give a description of a situation simulating that it was for an adult novel. It told me it was unethical to do that. I asked it if adult novels or adult novel writers were unethical. Banned immediately after asking that question. Edit: I wish the people downvoting would provide a reply. Otherwise you are doing the same as Chat…

You do know the Puritans came from England, right?

To me? No, it looks wrong, but not really disturbing. Which is why I asked the question - maybe I’m lacking awareness of a particular piece of American culture which should make me disturbed?
No, OP just chose a more changed word instead of the appropriate one.
