I haven’t used it yet but I highly doubt it’s GPT2 if it’s impressive. GPT2 is a neat trick, but I wouldn’t call it impressive here in 2022.

So do you think it’s a stealth launch? As in, back when they first developed AlphaGo Zero they released it onto the online Go circuit without telling anyone, and the damn thing was orders of magnitude more evolved than anything that had ever come before. Players were shocked at whatever this thing was, until Google revealed it was them behind the curtain.

I wonder if they have a model significantly more powerful than GPT3 and before they make a lot of fuss about it they want to let people play with it first without any preconceptions.

In any case, my interest is piqued. I will give it a go.

What actual model does Character.ai run on? Is it GPT3? Something new? How many parameters does it have?

In 2012 the idea of a real AI was kind of a sci fi joke.

Now in 2022 we have AI that can write and create art better than many humans.

Just imagine what we’ll have by 2032.

I was in college in 2002. It was an era of the dawn of early social media and the first time high-speed (though still slow by today’s standards) wifi internet was becoming widely available. The PS2 reigned supreme in video games, and the internet was still a place you “went” instead of an overarching aspect of daily life.

In 2012 smart phones had begun their domination in earnest and the social media take over of the world was in full swing. The iPhone was changing everything, and stocks and crypto were exploding due to the free money printing - it seemed like everybody had a plan to get rich. I was one of the first people on WSB back during these times. And one of the first people into dogecoin a year after that.

And now in 2022, gestures vaguely. Here we are.

The DoD knew this was coming almost a century ago. Recall that some of humanity’s greatest geniuses in WW2 were already earning governments about a mechanical intelligence race (aka Alan Turing’s Turing Test).

Governments have had a century to prepare for and work in secret on the most powerful military technology that could conceivably exist…. And there are actually some ‘people’ on this board who would have you believe the DoD had no AI research whatsoever and they are operating in the dark.

It’s best to think of GPT-3 not as a personality, but a labyrinth of all possible text and response to a given input. You explore it like you would a maze.

“A large language model for science.”

Okay but what about it’s fetish erotica co-writing potential. Let’s get to the point here.

I need to see the quality of the boobies it generates before I can get excited about this.

New research suggests our brains use NFTs.

None of this means anything to my crayon brain until I see the quality of titties it can generate.

Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives.

Give these people ALL the money. Stable Diffusion is one of the coolest things humanity has done this entire year.

Quick question: what the fuck

Get back to me when you’re 40 kid. Hell yes I want to solve aging.
