Excellent. I also would have accepted the two Spiderman meme.

[–] DandomRude 11 points 11 months ago

I thought about that too, but then decided to go with Bender because he's a robot built by an ominous megacorp. Plus he has an attitude that pretty much sums it all up.

Hahaha. They’re totally okay with stealing from people but hate it when others do the same to them. What a shame!

[–] Potatos_are_not_friends 15 points 11 months ago

Reminds me of when Microsoft Bing was stealing Google data, and Microsoft was like "So what?"

Please don't use this software to do things it's capable of

Lmao.

I used the AI to TRAIN the AI!

Distilling has been around since forever. It's a legitimate technique that can give you a better model depending on your needs.

OpenAI does it too to improve its models.

People use compilers to compile compilers, or just generally computers to design computer hardware, all the time. It's not so strange.

I thought it was almost entirely the point to automate stuff. We have a great tool to automate the automation.

We have a great tool to automate the automation.

We have the idea of a great tool. Right now we're kind of square wheeling our way through it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I prefer the term bumblefucking, but ok, square-wheeling.

It’s AI’s all the way down!

[–] Zeth0s 6 points 11 months ago

It's like pupils learning from teachers, with the exception that there's a single teacher in the whole world

[–] gosling 32 points 11 months ago

Well, that's not very open of OpenAI

[–] Markimus 31 points 11 months ago (1 children)

“Open”AI. This blocking manoeuvre kills progress.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago (3 children)

I don't know about that. Training your AI on someone else's AI feels a lot like drinking someone else's piss. I doubt you are going to extract much innovation out of that

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Can’t be any worse then training it on uninspired social media comments.

[–] totallynotarobot 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This^

Preach

Username checks out

Sigh. unzips

U wot m8

Wonder what would happen if someone trained an AI on only uninspired social media comments

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 5 points 11 months ago

I also choose this man’s uninspired social media comments.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

It works pretty well. You can create a good dataset for a fraction of the effort and price it would have required to do it by hand. The quality is similar. You just have to review each prompt so you don't train your model on bad data.

[–] eskimofry 3 points 11 months ago

Then they shouldn't interrupt their competitors commiting this mistake right?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 11 months ago

Even the plagiarism machine gets plagiarized nowadays...

[–] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago

Not so nice when it happens to you I guess

[–] yamanii 14 points 11 months ago

It's as if Sam is just talk and doesn't care about the Open part at all.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago

Oh the irony. Just train it on copyrighted material without a license, like OpenAI did.

[–] recapitated 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They put the "Ope" in Open.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They put the "N" in Open, which stands for Not Actually Open At All.

[–] recapitated 2 points 11 months ago

It stands for Open Platform for Everyone, NOT!

[–] Hackerman_uwu 7 points 11 months ago

Boring af the A.I. Wars are.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

It's models all the way down. AI trained on AI trained on AI trained....
