So those GPUs are thirsty... It would look pretty bad if it comes out these models are exacerbating climate change...especially after all of old Bill's climate rhetoric and everyone bashing crypto for the last 5+ years about the same thing.

Gates hasn't been leading MS for a long time now.

Just how much money is Microsoft burning up by offering all these features? I mean, last time I checked[0] - being this generous didn't really do anything for Bing, did it? Is this "just because we can" or is it genuinely profitable for them? [0]: https://searchengineland.com/new-bing-google-ma…

A million dollars in 4 years, that's pretty crazy. Good for them.

I enjoy playing around with https://ideogram.ai much more. Correct spelling was always there and you can mix and match with others' prompts: the image generation experience is a collective creative activity.

Bing is desperately adding new features in the hope of finding the "one feature to lure them all", but Bing is not the most effective platform for these generative models.

How do people put up with Bing? ChatGPT is much more free with giving fun and crazy answers, meanwhile Bing always complaints that it can't do whatever I'm asking. If I ask the LLM to howl, Bing will complaint and give some boring and long-winded excuse, while ChatGPT will just howl as requested.

I mean Why are you asking it to howl in the first place ?

Just saying it's fine if you're having a normal conversation which i imagine is what most people care about one way or the other.

Same. Can't imagine why they've been using it for so long instead of building a reasonable UX for this use case. I think this will cost them a bunch of traction.

I believe the fact that it's in Discord is actually the main reason it became so popular so fast. The number one thing that makes something popular is other people already doing it. When you go into a Discord and you are watching hundreds of people use a product in real time, you almost have to try it. When Midjourney first blew up, it was probably one of the most profound moments in marketing of the internet era. As…

Midjourney became famous by being ahead of the competition, using the Discord interface is convenient but it doesn't make them any favour at making the service more popular.

The ability to use MJ outside of the server is relatively new, so it has not had an impact on awareness of the service.

Bing is kinda desperate it seems. I went to install GPT on my device yesterday and the first app result was a sponsored one - bing - telling can you can earn prizes by using the app. Don't know if they are more interested in growing the number of users or collecting that sweet data. Probably both.

Google pays Apple $20b every year to remain the default search engine on iOS. Now that's desperate. Where were people going to go, Bing?

Google may be afraid that Apple would develop their own search engine, just like they developed their own maps engine and iCloud for email/photos. Apple, with their massive piles of cash, would have the resources to do that.

Completely correct. They did a lot of testing of a variety of user interfaces before choosing Discord.

With a web interface, new users would come in a prompt “dog”, “funny dog”, “two funny dogs”, get bored and leave. But, when a bunch of new users would prompt together in a Discord channel, they would riff off of each other constantly and get creative and detailed with immediate feedback from other users. Engagement and retention were both incredibly higher.

From Day One people have been telling them that Discord was a terrible mistake. All while Discord was measurably a huge success. MJ has been working on a web interface for a long time now. But, Discord has been tough to beat in the big picture.

As with most of these tools, it appears that it is reasonably easy to get it to generate some truly hilarious/disturbing stuff, probably not for long: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/16wf1i0/dalle_3_is...

I'm kind of hoping that they adjust it to ask for clarification or find some sort of soft adjustment to make them less problematic rather than just trying to do blind keyword blocking. Of course, I'd love for them to take the approach as well that folks are just going to do what they do, and maybe they'll burn out the novelty and give it a rest.

I asked for an image of The Muppets as the counter-terrorist team from Counter Strike and that got blocked, so "terrorism" is definitely getting picked up understandably.

Seems if you put just about any real person, even notable public figures, it pops up as a violation of the content policy, even though their policy doesn't say that explicitly. Perhaps it falls under "Deception, disinformation, and inauthentic activity" or their vague catchall "We prohibit the use of Image Creator for any other activity that significantly harms other individuals, organizations, or society"

I can squint and see why they wouldn't want my "Cowboy Al Gore rolls coal at a tractor pull" but I don't see how "Joe Bidden inauguration but wearing an orange suit" is going to bring down society. It shot me down for "angela merkel toasting beer glasses" despite her doing that all the time.
