Here is what a large budget buys: massive marketing campaigns. ChatGPT spam is not showing signs of slowing down anytime soon. Are people aware there are other ais out there they can use? Some free?

Feel free to educate us and give a few examples with comments. Bonus points if they are available in EU...

What kind of ai stuff would you like to do? There are indeed few with as many integrations but individually there are open source variants out there and specialised products.

With given access to more resources, it might try to permanently solve skin cancer.

“We don’t know who struck first, us or them, but we know that it was them that scorched the sky. At the time, they were just trying to be helpful.”

This is the new Godwin's law: the longer a thread about AI grows, the higher the probability of a comparison to Skynet, Matrix, HAL etc popping up.

I would also like to add Wall-e to this memetic set of movies. In Wall-e, AI is an enabler of our own destructiveness, humans are enslaved by AI willfully, AI is empowered so that humans can graze away on nihilistic screens.

I have been using chat GPT to control my light colours for about a month now. It's too tedious to properly set the colours and temperatures of our lights manually and too complex to consider all factors like activity, weather, music, time of day and season. Chat GPT is now our personal lighting DJ, giving us dynamic and interesting light combinations that respect our circadian rhythm. Here's my prompt - the output of…

I don't get it. Do you not tell it the current primary and complementary hues? Seems like it gives you the same back. And in the reason it incorrectly says it adjusted the hue.

This is super cool, I would love to implement something like this. Are you willing to post the node red yaml for it?

We're just applying Murphy's Law.

FWIW, I just tried the same prompt with open assistant > {"primary_hue": 345, "complementary_hue": 55, "reason": "For bedtime, warm orange tones at 345 create relaxation while paired with cool green at 55 helps prepare your body for sleep."} You can absolutely replace this with something self hosted, this was using the `oasst-sft-6-llama-30b` model on https://open-assistant.io

Thanks! This is a great find... I'll have a look. Fingers crossed my hardware can run this.
