#3 Preventing Harmful Generations
We’ve limited the ability for DALL·E 2 to generate violent,
hate, or adult images. By removing the most explicit content
from the training data, we minimized DALL·E 2’s exposure to
these concepts. We also used advanced techniques to prevent
photorealistic generations of real individuals’ faces,
including those of public figures.
I can't help but feel a lot of the safeguarding is more about preventing bad PR than anything. I wish I could have a version with the training wheels taken off. And there's enough other models out there without restriction that the stories about "misuse of AI" will still circulate.
(side note - I've been on HN for years and I still can't figure out how to format text as a quote.)

#5Some freely available models
GLID-3: https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1x4p2PokZ3XznBn35Q5B...
and a new Latent Diffusion notebook: https://colab.research.google.com/github/multimodalart/laten...
have both appeared recently and are getting remarkably close to the original Dall-E (maybe better as I can't test the real thing...)
So - this was pretty good timing if OpenAI want to appear to be ahead of the pack. Of course I'd always pick a model I can actually use over a better one I'm not allowed to...

I don't think there is a way comparable to markdown, since the formatting options are limited: https://news.ycombinator.com/formatdoc
So your options are literal quotes, "code" formatting like you've done, italics like I've done, or the '>' convention, but that doesn't actually apply formatting. Would be nice if it were added.

The goalposts are definitely being moved. But tastes adapt accordingly.
I suspect trends in design will move towards those areas that AI struggles with (assuming there are any left!)

#8This is mind blowing. I was not expecting the sketch style images to actually look like sketches. Style transfer based sketches never look like sketches.
This and the current AI generated art scene makes it looks like that artwork is now a "solved" problem. See AI generated art on twitter etc.
There is a strong relation between the prompt and the generated images but just like GPT-3, it fails to fully understand what was being asked. If you take the prompt out of the equation and see the generated artwork on its own, its upto your interpretation just like any artwork.

#9Very cool stuff. For me, the most interesting was the ability to take a piece of art and generate variations of it.
Have a favorite painter? Here's 10,000 new paintings like theirs.

#10A friend of mine was studying graphic design, but became disillusioned and decided to switch to frontend programming after he graduated. His thesis advisor said he should be cautious, because automation/AI will soon take the jobs of programmers, implying that graphic design is a safer bet in this regard. Looks like his advisor is a few years from being proven horribly wrong.
