#82I think it has some xss attack as on load my ios safari asked if i want to download 2girls1cup.jpg
It seems to use %s.jpg as a filename and to request the browser to download the picture you clicked on as that filename, so probably some larrikin typed 2girls1cup in as a prompt and you happened to click on whatever picture came out and was in the feed.
> Larrikin is an Australian English term meaning "a mischievous young person, an uncultivated, rowdy but good hearted person", or "a person who acts with apparent disregard for social or political conventions".

#83Hi! Creator here! I just started hacking on this last night and wasn't expecting to see this on HN already :) It works by taking your prompt and generating an emoji using https://replicate.com/fofr/sdxl-emoji . Next, I remove the background using https://replicate.com/cjwbw/rembg . Then, click to download and add to slack! It's all open-source, code is here: https://github.com/cbh123/emoji Let me know if you have any…
Elixir... don't see that every day. I started reading through the code and was like "what the heck is an ex file?!!" Never really seen Elixir before. Looks pretty nice.
Yes! I love Elixir :) Phoenix LiveView is really amazing. I feel so fast working in it. I got hooked after watching Chris McCord's 'Build a real-time Twitter clone in 15 minutes' demo, and things have improved a lot since then.

See that's the thing about content creation— you entirely lose the "it's just a tool and tools are inherently neutral" argument. Nobody's claiming that the implementor created deliberately racist content, but you can't merely disavow responsibility for the content you generate because the input and algorithms you chose were the root of the problem. Like it or not, what's included in the source data for these models i…
Actually I think “it’s a reflection of society’s bias” is a totally reasonable statement to make if you’re product is a reflection of societies generated content. Rather than impugning the model makers for not curating societies content to erase its biases, to my mind it demonstrates what’s broken with society, and should be used as an indictment of how we encode our society in our media - the fact that if you asked…
How does perpetuation of stereotypes fix society?
Re: Emoji Generator with AI
#85Interested to know what can be done with the up/down votes, some kind of RLHF for image generation? Unfortunately it seems some "tiled images" must have made it into the dataset as half the time it generates an array of tiny images instead of a single emoji. Out of about 5 or 6 tries I got one good one that wasn't centered correctly.
Yeah my thought was the up/down votes could be used to have a "Trending" or "Most Popular" section on the site. But that RHLF idea is interesting too — I've had the same problem with tiled images, and so fine-tuning on highly upvoted examples may help

I really like it. It does seem to be suffering a little from some biases that are probably coming from sdxl though.
What biases?
As others have pointed out it tends to associate some professions with specific races. And crime related emojis with black people. It's a Stable Diffusion issue.

It's not perpetuating stereotypes, it's showing that these stereotypes exist in society. Similar to how a comedian might point out the absurdity of racism by writing and delivering a joke about race. Or how a child might ask why people of certain skin tones tend to have different hair styles as well. Neither the child nor the comedian are definitely racist, but they are making observations that may not be considered politically correct.

Just came off your Elixir talk photos on Twitter to find this on HN. Please share your ElixirConf talk recording. Producing a nice emoji/avatar for an AI agent seems like a cool idea.
Thanks so much :)
I'll share it as soon as I have access! I'll also post a transcript on my site (charlieholtz.com) soon.
