While I guess an uncensored language model could create something mildly illegal, an uncensored image model could probably generate highly illegal content. There is a trade-off between being uncensored and the (degree of) illegality of the content.

In what ways was he harassed? I quite liked the article and agreed with its premise btw.
There was a thread on huggingface with a bunch of hysteria and an impotent moral busybody threatened his livelihood (in private messages.) I believe most of it has been cleaned up.
Would you have the link handy? Can't seem to find.

#24> Some of the characters in the novel may be downright evil and do evil things, including rape, torture, and murder. One popular example is Game of Thrones in which many unethical acts are performed. But many aligned models will refuse to help with writing such content. Consider roleplay and particularly, erotic roleplay. This is a legitimate, fair, and legal use for a model… This was an interesting technical read, b…
I think it gives him most of the favors. Hard to argue against how popular works that have incredible violence are. Violence is an integral part of the fictional worlds authors build and our stories would be entirely different without it. Of course we want AIs that can engage with those topics. Your quote says "help with writing" but you couch it as generating "an endless stream". Why would you frame it that way? Com…
So true, I cannot believe how modern society has become so censorious. Being able to explore every area of life in graphic fictional detail, is part of being human, it's necessary intellectual freedom for us to grow as individuals, into better people. Because that way we confront the gremlins inside of us.
Re: Uncensored Models
#25I wonder, if at same point we will have just domain specific models (or do we have them already?). For instance: - Computer Science Models that can complete code - Wikipedia-Style Models, which can infer knowledge - Fantasy Models, if you want to hear a new story every day - Naughty Models, for your daily dose of dirty talk Maybe it's not necessary from a technical standpoint, but maybe it's beneficial from a societa…
Then there’s the crossover market, like naughty code completion or fantasy knowledge inference.

In many countries.

That one dirty line of code everyone is looking for...
Re: Uncensored Models
#28It's unfortunate that this guy was harassed for releasing these uncensored models. It's pretty ironic, for people who are supposedly so concerned about "alignment" and "morality" to threaten others. "Alignment", as used by most grifters on this train, is a crock of shit. You only need to get so far as the stochastic parrots paper, and there it is in plain language. "reifies older, less-inclusive 'understandings'", "v…
You're doing the "vaguely gesturing at imagined hypocrisy" thing. You don't have to agree that alignment is a real issue. But for those who do think it's a real issue, it has nothing to do with morals of individuals or how one should behave interpersonally. People who are worried about alignment issues are worried about the danger unaligned AI poses to humanity; the harm which can be done by some super-intelligent sy…
>People who are afraid of unaligned AI aren't afraid that it will be impolite.
People who are not afraid of it being impolite are afraid of science fiction stories about intelligence explosions and singularities. That's not a real thing. Not anymore than turning the solar system into paperclips.
The "figurehead", if you want to call him that, is saying that everyone is going to die. That we need to ban GPUs. That only "responsible" companies, if that, should have them. We should also airstrike datacenters, apparently. But you're free to disown the MIRI.

Well this "highly illegal content" is yet another attempt by the state to police our creativity. It is a thought crime. It's the 21st Century, we should not be conducting moral witch hunts in this day and age. That rightfully belongs in the past.
Maybe if we distribute the material it should be illegal then. But otherwise it's not the state's right to police what art we are creating in our own homes, period.
Thankfully, because it's run locally and not on the cloud, there is little the government can do about it, so it's very hard to enforce.

I don't know why you're telling me this. I'm not trying to convince you that unaligned AI is a problem. That's a separate discussion which I'm not qualified to have.
