I don't think the target market for this is people looking for extremely knowledgeable LLMs that can handle deep technical tasks, given that you can't even finetune these models. I'd guess this is more of an attempt to poach the market of companies like character.ai. The market for models with a distinct character/personality is absolutely massive right now (see: app store rankings) and users are willing to spend ins…

> digital girlfriend The ban on "adult themes" is part of the reason people use services other than OpenAI for that kind of thing in the first place.

Someone has to give reasons for civit.ai and huggingface to exist!

... is what people who don't understand positioning will parrot time and time again. Jasper isn't having a good time, but you'd think the fact anyone can produce better output than they did after spending millions of dollars in GPT-3 based pipelines for $20 a month would mean they're dead dead. But instead they went and changed their positioning, changed who their target market is, adjusted the UX, the messaging, and…

Isn’t that the crux of the conversation? Jasper had to fight to survive because they were a wrapper.

What isn't a wrapper? Honestly everyone turns they nose in the air and claims all superiority bit I challenge you to find a use case that isn't just a 'wrapper'

To be fair, the name "ChatGPT" has quite a bit of mindshare and I've found many non-technical folks referring to any generative AI product as "ChatGPT" or "GPT". Yet, if you asked any single one of them what "GPT" stood for, they'd have no clue.

I've heard all permutations of "GPT" "GPP" "GTP" etc.

True humans have been remarkably ignorant throughout our short history. Though you might notice though that most folks dont go around abusing animals or hurting other people on purpose. Take from that what you will. Give this essay a read if youre interested in good faith arguments about the danger of AI at the current state of development. https://1a3orn.com/sub/essays-propaganda-or-science.html Maybe together as a…

I know this piece. Here is a better article by a top biologist and CRISPR pioneer: https://nitter.net/kesvelt/status/1720440451059335520 But anyway, that's just human terrorists using future AIs to build biological weapons. But the much greater danger is superintelligent AI causing human extinction by itself.

That is not an article that is a series of short-form tweets. If it was an actual article I would absolutely read it but I cannot see referencing a bunch of tweets from a self-proclaimed expert as in any sense good faith. I asked if you had any novel ideas about how "superintelligent AI" gives a valid x-risk but you failed to provide any interesting ideas. So I wont engage with what from my perspective is fearmongering for the benefit of malicious corporations.

I still dont see any studies with control groups and reproduceable experimental procedures saying that any AI agent is in any way more useful to a 'terrorist' than unrestricted access to the internet.

For what it's worth, for me it appeared nothing was different except I could leave the Default model on, upload a picture, ask it to generate a similar one with a change, and it just booted up Dall-e and did so. I'm not sure if everyone's experience is like this. I agree it's super annoying how they handle these things. I do still have the dropdown but, set to Default, it would generate images for me.

I do recommend logging off and logging back in if it isn't working. I've seen that update things for me.

The roll outs are quite slow. Sometimes it takes weeks for them to release a feature to my account while I know others who get access immediately. I understand that it helps them control the quality of ChatGPT, but I wish I got access earlier as I have been subscribed since the beginning.

Sometimes it seems like logging off and back on causes these updates to hit. I didn't have Dall-e or image capabilities after weeks of it being released and I logged off and back on and both were available. This was between multiple computers logged in so it wasn't just a cache clearing situation.

The GPT Store will prove to be an interesting moderation and quality control experiment for OpenAI. Apple/Google have spent a lot of time and money on both of those things and they still have issues, and that's not even accounting for the fact that AI growth hackers will be the primary creators of GPTs. And a revenue sharing agreement will provide even more incentive to do the traditional App Store marketing shennani…

I wouldn't be surprised if most of the moderation is done via elaborate AI automation.

Also RIP chatgpt plugnins

Yeah I'm getting pretty sick of these announcements followed by insanely slow rollouts. I'm a paying customer and have been since Plus became available. So annoying.

Would be nice also if they fixed the ubiquitous "network errors" that happen approximately every single time...

Right?! That then give you no way to interact except to force a regeneration. I don't want to waste messages or time repeating a long generation, I want to be able to either continue it or, if it's sufficient as is, just respond to it in place. I don't understand why you're forced to hit regenerate after those.
