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.)

BingChat had _a lot of_ issues on the start. And it was built by the same company that made GPT-3.

The GPT-4 in Bing Chat was fine-tuned by Microsoft themselves, which might its initially unhinged behavior. Only the ChatGPT+ GPT-4 was fine-tuned by OpenAI. Microsoft apparently just got the base model, and they have not as much know how regarding fine-tuning.

No, OP just chose a more changed word instead of the appropriate one.

Don't you notice that the face looks messed up? Whatever forces the change in skin color seems to also degrade image quality.

> Whatever forces the change in skin color seems to also degrade image quality.

Your statement is both authoritative and non-specific:why are you certain about the causality and that there is a force other than the training data and PRNG seed?

Oh please, give me a break, the thought police ? Really? It's not about whether it's immoral or not, it's about whether the owner of the service you are using wants you to use their service running on their computers to perform those queries. You got banned because you broke the obvious and stated TOS. You want to generate yourself some AI erotica, self-host your own AI software, or find an adult-oriented AI service…

I wasn’t trying to write an erotica. Sure it’s a private service. But how long until you are at a huge disadvantage if you don’t have access to it for work? What if getting banned means loosing your job? Would that be ok?

Yes, it would be okay. In fact, it’s the status quo.

Here are examples that mirror your situation that don’t involve AI at all:

- I walk into a public library. I ask for the erotica section. The librarian tells me that this library doesn’t carry erotica, and if I ask about it again my library card will be revoked. Then I ask about it again, and my library card is revoked (this is exactly what you did). Now everyone else with access to the library is better at their job than me.

- I make a post on the subject of adult literature on LinkedIn and get banned, now it’s harder to get a job.

- I saturate my home Internet connection with non-stop torrent traffic and my ISP tells me to stop, citing their abuse policy. They didn’t prove that I was infringing on copyrights and their abuse policy doesn’t say they need to. I disregarded their warning and continued seeding. My ISP dropped me and now I can’t work as a remote employee effectively and as a result I lost my job.

- I have a bad habit of driving 60 MPH in a school zone. The cop gave me a ticket the first time and told me to stop. I didn’t change my behavior and now after collecting more tickets my license is suspended. Now I’ve lost my job because I can’t get to work.

Come to think of it, the fact that you couldn’t interpret and act correctly on simple instructions to keep your queries G-rated makes you a pretty unattractive job candidate to me right now!

When one of my business information systems tells you to do or not do something, how can I trust you to act accordingly when you couldn’t follow a similar instruction on your own?

No public library is revoking your library card for asking twice when they deal with actual homeless people watching actual pornography.

LinkedIn doesn't have any policy against discussing adult literature

https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7039967...

this person just got a job at an AI company that generates erotica and sends shots at openai

your 3rd and 4th example is actually illegal so consequences make sense.

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're not entitled to anyone's opinion. Secondly, I think the silence and downvotes are conveying a strong message, people don't agree with you. Your faux outrage about thought policing is a non-starter for serious conversation.

> Secondly, I think the silence and downvotes are conveying a strong message, people don’t agree with you.

Specifically, on the question of “is this a productive avenue for discussion on HN”, irrespective of opinion on the merits (though there is probably a correlation.)

Fair. No one has demanded an answer. And thank you for voluntarily choosing to share your opinion. I am genuinely concerned about the potential of this. OpenAI has massive power to censor what people can reason about with GPT. Seeing how fast they are growing, their beliefs of the world are going to be forced on millions of people. Do you not think that will happen, or do you think it is not something worth talking a…

> Do you not think that will happen

I think the more they censor, the less it will happen; there will be competing AIs, and they will get used, and the more – users or subject matter – excluded from OpenAI’s offerings, the more competing services will be used and developed, even if they are initially behind.

Yeah, the Nonconformists came here because they weren’t welcome there.

So, currently OpenAI's Dalle-2 gives me: "The server is overloaded right now, please try again later." I guess all their compute power is going to power this. And even now the Bing generation is taking a long time. Definitely seems like their having scaling issues at the moment.

you can try the following:

1) Wait for some time and try again later: This error message usually indicates that the server is temporarily unable to process your request. You can try again later when the server is less busy.

2) Reduce the complexity of your image: The server may be overloaded due to the complexity of the image you are trying to generate. Try simplifying your image or reducing the resolution to reduce the load on the server.

3) Refresh the page: Sometimes, refreshing the page can help to clear any temporary issues with your browser or internet connection that might be causing the error.

4) Clear browser cache: Clearing your browser’s cache and cookies can help to fix various website-related issues in case the problem is occurring due to some conflict of your past history.

5) Use a different browser: If the issue persists, try using a different browser to access DALL-E-2. This can help to rule out any browser-specific issues.

6) Contact support: If the problem persists, you can contact the support team for DALL-E-2 to report the issue and get further assistance.
