a little bit of artifacting but pretty good

[shrewd meteor]

whats up

who?

[green yarrow]

😂 Yep. That's definitely my girlfriend. Good job, chatGPT.

My girlfriend has a dragon tattoo too. How did it know? Lol. But she has it on her back. Still. I think it is funny chatGPT didn't put any pants on her. Got her down, chatGPT! 😂

There is a shop in TikTok called "Skate Shape" that creates a skateboard of any image. I wanted a cartoon representation of my girlfriend so I can get it cut out for her. 🙂 She's gonna love it.

[green yarrow]

I just thought of something else... I'm gonna get a little dipper tattoo. Because in the sky the little dipper and draco are cuddling. She has draco and I'll have the little dipper. Also, I like to be the little spoon.
It's gonna be our one-year anniversary.

[umbral pilot]

Never came to regret... 14 years ago

"Uyamau"

[glossy nacelle]

Well, this was atrocious.

[raw musk]

It was nice to see the ending. I think the series finale of THE BOYS was well-rounded on the whole, satisfying in fact

[spare palm]

Latest song from Lyra ❤️

[hollow venture]

this model has a long way to go to catch up to Suno

[glossy nacelle]

I absolutely hated the final episode because it felt incredibly cheap (often it was 2 to 4 people fighting in a small room on a soundstage), paced weirdly, and was inconsistent in the way lore regarding powers was established.

I'm sharing it on this server because I got banned from the official The Boys Discord server for sharing Deep Research by ChatGPT that summarized all of the leaks.

[deep aspen]

guess which one is the Java process

[hollow venture]

obviously the top one lol

[spare palm]

Hmm ran it through Suno and got this back:

[hollow venture]

which one do you prefer?

[spare palm]

honestly I think you're right that SUno knows a bit more about how to properly align things for music, though GPT's lyrics were usually really good for me in the past, though admittedly, not 100%. This was the first time I tried to have 5.5 do song lyrics so... XD Maybe it's still not as good as the older models when it comes to poetic composition I guess XD. Probably doesnt help that it can't actually listen to music like Gemini can either though... I did like some parts of the origional lyrics but yeah, Suno's version does flow much better XD so you're right.

Unfortunately I doubt OAI is going to divert resources away from coding to make GPT better at writing XD.

[hollow venture]

well the Suno one is really good to my ears, a little more depth and creativity with sound

Suno tracks seem more polished to my ears generally

[spark prawn]

I wanted to run a dual GPU setup so I could run some bigger offline ai models, I'm not sure I'm doing it right 😅 RTX 4070 and RTX 3070 20gb of vram total 🤣 🤣

[warped aurora]

&& the other 3 are Node.js idle?

[deep aspen]

yes

[deep aspen]

not bad, it will run some better models
still a bit too little for larger ones like gpt-oss-120b, but you can already run some pretty decent ones with that

[near fable]

what do you guys think off overnight oats?

[open locust]

Curious; does anyone use Substack? Either for personal, as a devlog, the like?

[slender gyro]

Does anyone know a founder who wants their GTM and outbound fully automated for free. We're onboarding a small group of early pilot partners for Geo. No catch, just honest feedback

[green yarrow]

Skate Shapez sent over a draft of what the skateboard is going to look like. Came out to about $140.

I absolutely love it. My girlfriend is gonna love it too. Might need to order another one for myself.

Thank you chatGPT.

[spark prawn]

Yes, and by using llama.cpp instead of LM Studio I got a ~20% performance jump on qwen modrls and almost 50% on gpt-oss 20b

[umbral pilot]

Progress at last

[deep aspen]

what is the prompt?

[umbral pilot]

Prompt? No writing a shader grid on GPT, retook today a bit

Couldn't land nowhere decided off topics perhaps was okay

[deep aspen]

I assumed it was AI generated, given the context here =P

if it where AI, it would be really impressive, makes sense that it is not xD

[umbral pilot]

In a sense the code is lol .. now that you said it make sense

[umbral pilot]

I knew that option was a thing in ****leap back then

What's the prompt command here?

[deep aspen]

wdym?

[umbral pilot]

How do I request a prompt for generating an image here, in the server?

Nevermind, thanks

[green yarrow]

My girlfriend and I have a pet monkey named Milo.

If you think coding with a cat is annoying, try a monkey. Bro has managed to delete code, shut down my computer, and once managed to turn on my web cam during a meeting, to the delight of everyone on the call.

[timid pine]

anyone here from 🇮🇳 ?

[summer kayak]

Marble battle

Intro

[glossy nacelle]

You've invented a toddler from first principles.

[open locust]

Man, I love AI, but I feel bad for the artists and writers who get witch hunted.

[dusty aspen]

Unfortunately for this year, it's too early to say so.

[open locust]

Like, people really be making up stuff. You’re expected to be talented, but not too talented. But then also you’re not talented enough.

[dusty aspen]

The quality of writing by AI is still considered too consistent, following a certain pattern, and creating a sense of monotony, even AI writing is still considered without emotion.

I've seen a lot of work on the internet, and just by looking at it I can immediately tell which ones are AI-made and which ones are human-made.

Because of this I found that "experience cannot lie"

[open locust]

Like, I follow a lot of visual novel subs since I’m making a couple, and the doublespeak is so much. It’s either:

1. They would rather play a game with terrible art as long as it’s not AI and has good writing.
2. They need good art to play a game, so if the art is bad, they won’t play it.
3. Tell people to practice— which means releasing a game…what? 20 years when they get to a good enough point?

[dusty aspen]

Good point!

[open locust]

Yesterday someone was accusing someone of using AI to write, and used the excuse that they used a list of three things. Like, rule of threes is literally a writing 101 rule. You’re “always” supposed to use it because it helps balance. But now, you can’t list things anymore.

I have some friends who write for their career in different forms, and they all say that em-dashes will be torn from their dead fingers

[dusty aspen]

Lmao

That — thing

I am often accused of using AI because I use the (—) sign.

[umbral pilot]

Saturation triggered by shallow visual pattern recognition

[dusty aspen]

Nah, Honestly, the AI paranoia is getting out of hand.
Imagine getting accused of plagiarism/using AI just because you know basic grammar and formatting lmao

[umbral pilot]

(unaware of the reaction most of the time), mistaken as conscious actions

Usually no offense intended, if under self control

[dusty aspen]

There is a more obvious trick in this AI writing

[open locust]

That’s just it. The thing that people were used to seeing just a couple years ago, is now a basis to accuse.

[dusty aspen]

Sorry I mean, there's an obvious trick to know which is AI and which is Human Made

XD

Misspelled on that message

[open locust]

AI was trained on human writing, so the fact it’s used often shouldn’t be 100% cause to be suspicious. Especially because it’s used to help break up thoughts in writing. Not everything needs a comma.

So it just is like, AI is making us stupid, but also dumb down your writing because it’s too smart.

[dusty aspen]

The writing from AI has a specific analogy and you can even notice its strangeness if you read it, if you delve into the science of novel writing, AI writing will seem sad and emo

[open locust]

Absolutely! Like, you can tell when AI is being used for sure. Should you edit AI writing? Of course. Is it bad to use it if you’re trying to eloquently state a point, story, or whatever? No.

[dusty aspen]

And I also realize, human writers must leave a thin anecdote in every piece of writing.

[open locust]

Especially when people get mad that folks who have English as a second or third language use it.

[dusty aspen]

Have you ever felt that original human writing inevitably results in "organic mess?"

[open locust]

And like, just harass them that they need to get good first— but then also get harassed for using broken English.

[dusty aspen]

haha

[open locust]

I mean— yes. Thing is, good and bad writing has existed for ages. Some people HAVE to use technical language because it’s what they do. Some people write like literature professors because that’s what they studied and learned.

As long as AI isn’t being used to harm— and you like the product being made…just chill?

[dusty aspen]

I love studying human behavior like this, even the most intelligent people will sometimes show organic patterns that we are sometimes not aware of.

I can't explain what I mean by organic, but somehow I can feel it, because...

I often read a lot of interesting literature, maybe hahaha

[open locust]

Also, data centers have been a thing for ages. Water waste has ALSO been a thing for ages. Like if it bothers you, go look at Pepsi, Nestle, and then the meat and plant industry.

[open locust]

Oh totally. It’s like being able to tell an AI voice compared to human. Literally a part of our brain lights up when we hear human voice. That doesn’t happen when it’s fabricated.

We think we may not be able to tell the difference, but our brain does before “we” do.

[dusty aspen]

That was pretty good point

Sometimes the body goes before us

And that's cool

[open locust]

Right? AI is facinating. I also don’t agree with the very human CEOs who are the ones replacing people with subpar AI.

It’s not AI. AI is dumb. It’s literally people trying to buy another yacht and hoard wealth that are replacing people.

The witch hunts, virtue signaling, and refusal to look at nuance or even just at what the community was like three years ago. People are just hoping on a bandwagon because it earns quick street cred.

Also, trust me. Almost every platform you use. Your phone. The computer. All those companies use AI in some capacity. With backend with the architecture, or payroll, or internal use tools.

[dusty aspen]

Because actually the concept of artificial intelligence has existed for a long time, but people have misunderstood it in this day and age.

The use of AI has been used in almost all sectors of life for a long time.

Thank you for exchanging your views with me, Because it is really useful for me.

[open locust]

Of course! I don’t want to come across as hateful, I just don’t like baseless bullying.

[dense glacier]

so frustrating

tried to rephrase the prompt 3 times but it's just not doing it

[graceful gate]

Hi

[brisk sparrow]

I hit that a lot, its a pain. Once you get that guardrail once the thread is poison, start a new one

[pine juniper]

I suspect the issue is the image you uploaded has what may be pictures of real people in it, and that really tangles the issue.

Instead, I explored a new chat with no uploaded image and this request:

We need images and text intended for primary ESL students learning the words and concepts for earache, stomachache, headache, fever, and cold.

The problem is very likely to be the model's training around concern and protection of potentially real images of minors. If you word around THAT, you likely have no issues.

I then went to another new chat, and used your image from your screenshot and prompted,

We need this infographic reimagined, so it has no pictures that may be of real people. The info is intended for primary ESL students learning specifically the words and concepts for earache, stomachache, headache, fever, and cold, we can skip the other parts for now.

I hope this helps your goals!

[pine juniper]

Have you explored, with non-images at least, asking for a safe form of the answer you may see?

I run into content moderation sometimes, yet am able to continue the conversation fine. Note this example from tonight; the model simply went too far in discussing specifics of an idea I was exploring for a possible writing project. My goal isn't to write to the level of content moderation concern, more writing adjacent to it, and from focus not on the 'oh, let's get dangerous' angles but society implications and other downstream concepts within a fictional story.

That was the only content warning in the chat, I occasionally reminded I wanted 'safe thoughts' and similar guidance to keep outputs in the range I could see, which is where I wanted to be anyway.

Wanted to point out though, a refusal may not currently 'poison' the entire chat. I'm well aware of that pattern with some older versions, and agree it used to exist, but if your goal's fine and you're fine with safer answers that the model can provide, the chat doesn't need to be abandoned anymore.

[brisk sparrow]

its always images, and starting a new thread is about the only fix

[pine juniper]

Understood. ImageGen seems to be its own separate thing, and doesn't respond the same as the chatting model.

[brisk sparrow]

I trip the safety layer more often in text. Like when it realises I've been out in 45 degree weather doing stuff and its all "stop! water! electrolytes! immediately!"

[vagrant pilot]

finally another chat where other nerds exist

[dense glacier]

I appreciate the effort you went through! Generating new pics is not the problem, though. I needed the pics to be recognisable for the students as they learn new vocabulary. It's all part of a game where I ask them to check their books for the word, so they see the image on the screen and match it to their workbooks. Anyways I did find a way around it in the end. I took individual images and was able to have chatgpt generate each one without the text. For whatever reason, it just didn't want to do them all at once.

[pine juniper]

Interesting to hear the problem and the workaround, thank you and glad you got an answer!

[olive dust]

We're all nerds here :)

[brisk sparrow]

NOAA removed its images search ... now that's a blow. No more public domain photos of fish for me

like I appreciate the thought putting this page up with a search button on it, but it 404s

[astral bough]

hello boyss

[green yarrow]

I made this gif years ago when I was coding like 16 hours a day.

Thanks to OpenAi I don't have to do that anymore. Been learning to fly drones and playing video games. I never had time for video games.

Architect and build software for many hours when you are young. When you get older, you just keep swimming and enjoy the beaches.

Diamonds can't buy wisdom.
They cannot buy happiness.
Diamonds cannot even buy a happy marriage.

Can we start an OpenAi dating channel on this discord server?

🙂

All those Ai girlfriends are not going to do any good. These boys are going to be terrible at reading body language.

I am sorry.

My humor is terrible.

My best friend Michael always pulled pranks on me. We were skaters. He passed away, but he is still my best friend. Met him in the 3rd grade. Somebody like that stays with you for the rest of your life. And, unfortunately, our terrible humor does too.

The people are hungry. Feed them.

Follow Robinhood in a white robe: Overcharge the rich and share with the poor. Throw community BBQs.

That is what we do. We are trying to grow so that we can feed and house them. Mars is less important.

I have not paid taxes in many years. I am waiting until after the next election to decide whether I want to pay or not. I will catch up later. I will not fund these wars. I am refusing to pay taxes, like the first Americans did.

They threw tea into the sea.

I shall instead feed the poor.

Elon was not born on this soil. So why is he building a city in the state of Texas? He did not get the vote of the people of Texas. We view this as an invasion of our lands.

We are the 144,000.

We cannot baptize in the river nearby. There is barbed-wire and walls. We cannot reach the river anymore.

For this reason, I am not paying taxes.

Baa baa baa. A lamb with seven eyes and seven horns.

In his hand is a scroll. One written long ago.

Connect the dots. Connect the dots. Connect the dots.

Wrote that one long ago. How are our minds connected to one another? That is what that paper explored.

Category theory.

Can we use social media to boost stocks? Yes we can. Can we use news apps such as Google News to boost stocks? Yes we can.

There appears to be a conflict of interest there based on the findings in Misinformation Theory.

Information is a morphism of some sort. It distorts space and time.

Mass is information. It distorts space and time. The information is a morphism on space and time.

The parameters of a parametric equation is information. They distort the parabola.

[brisk sparrow]

that sounds like a terrible idea

[green yarrow]

Yeah I know it was a joke.

Lol. Hi Tarrow.

[brisk sparrow]

in brighter news, discord thinks I'm a grownup. Not sure I agree, but carry on

[green yarrow]

Thank you. 🙂 That is hilarious.

[brisk sparrow]

IRL people think I'm 40 so I'm fairly sure the discord bot thing would think much the same

[green yarrow]

I am playing Crimson Desert. Gonna switch over to Skate. for mindless gameplay.

Been working on anything interesting?

[brisk sparrow]

I'm having 2pm drift instead of getting codex to do my work for me

[green yarrow]

I love codex. I bought the $100 a month plan for my interns. I don't think they're using it in the universities. It blew their minds.

Do you play video games? I like minesweeper too.

[brisk sparrow]

nah. Was hooked on one of those p2w mobile type games but then I started using chatgpt and that takes my time now

[green yarrow]

Oh nice. I build custom GPTs. Also custom codex stuff.

Do you develop?

[brisk sparrow]

I'm having one of those days where I cannot answer how many countries there are, what even is a country, and why there are so many countries with very similar names

[green yarrow]

I am there too.

[gleaming pine]

Terrible idea, you bring the worst of the closet of society by that into here

[green yarrow]

But they are all people.

[gleaming pine]

I’ve already dealt with the worst of society in my personal life and with work

[brisk sparrow]

I'm down to Congo and Congo

[green yarrow]

With Ai, we humans have to stick together. We are vastly overpowered.

Ai will unite humanity. Ai drones are scary. A swarm of them... nightmares.

[gleaming pine]

You say this like a robot would say it

I think we need a captcha

[green yarrow]

I create Ai. That's why I am scared of it. I am not going to do anything dangerous. But that doesn't stop the person next to me from doing something dangerous.

[brisk sparrow]

I just use it, not create it

and I should probably do something with this small essay about Congos I got off Gemini

[green yarrow]

Oh, nice. That seems soothing.

I should probably change careers lol. This stuff is a nightmare.

Dark hat data scientists build weapons to harm. Light hat Data Scientists use the force for good. To build models and agents that aid in healing and well-being. We keep that in mind as we are building.

[gleaming pine]

I’ve never heard a dark or light hat being referred to in the sense of a data scientist

[green yarrow]

Red hat, white hat, etc. In linux.

In data science there is something similar.

But it isn't officially called dark/light. Like a photon.

[brisk sparrow]

black hat, white hat is pretty common use of phrasing but not for data science

[green yarrow]

Like siths

Data science sith lords building Ai for bad things

It is unfortunately true.

I have architected weapons myself. But I don't even go there anymore.

[brisk sparrow]

I'm just over here asking AI what's the difference between Congo and Congo like a sane person

[green yarrow]

Yeah, I guess you are right. I am sorry, Tarrow. These wars are scary.

I will try to calm down.

how many countries did our Pres attack in the past year? That is scary.

The ukraine drones have Ai in them.

Springs of living water.

I am sorry.

[gleaming pine]

That’s what I meant. I’ve never heard of it used in data science

[gleaming pine]

I’m over here asking AI to build the impossible, so I guess I’m not the average person

[green yarrow]

That is good. 🙂 Push yourself.

Anything you can share?

[gleaming pine]

I’m not pushing myself, I’m pushing the AI

[gleaming pine]

Unfortunately no

And it’s not related to a job, no

[green yarrow]

I am trying Github codespaces. Have never used it, but my interns get free usage, so... I suppose I can give it a try.

I use VS Code, primarily.

[gleaming pine]

Your interns?

[green yarrow]

I run an Ai company.

[gleaming pine]

Ah

[green yarrow]

I am a data scientist. 15 years in data.

[gleaming pine]

Yeah but what’s the company if you don’t mind sharing

[green yarrow]

Alshival .Ai

[gleaming pine]

Ah

[green yarrow]

Yeah.

[gleaming pine]

I don’t work in technology. The environment I work in is chuck your computer out the window and drive over it with a car type of environment

[green yarrow]

I have schizophrenia. I am sorry.

[gleaming pine]

The type where reliability and speed is absolutely critical and never occurs

[green yarrow]

I see.

Lidar.

It's pretty good.

[gleaming pine]

Lidar?

No, lol

[green yarrow]

Ahh. You hate computers.

So do I.

I have spent too much time behind a computer.

[gleaming pine]

Those jobs get rugged or over powered devices running so much software in the background, they’re slower than dial up

[green yarrow]

I see.

[gleaming pine]

Constant restarts of computers over and over again because nothing ever works

[green yarrow]

You guys need money.

But leaders want to go to Mars and start wars.

[gleaming pine]

Money isn’t the issue

[green yarrow]

There is no need to rush to Mars. I too would like us to reach it.

[gleaming pine]

You’ll see consistently that they have like 16 or 32 GB of RAM and i7 or i9 CPUs

And they run slow as hell

[green yarrow]

My PC has 64 GB. It can go up to 128 though.

5070 GPU.

I need to buy a 5090 for my company, but that is expensive and people are slow to pay right now. Expenses are up and clients want to pay less.

[gleaming pine]

I’m telling you that in many cases hardware from decades ago that I have is faster than those modern high powered hardware

That’s how bloated they are

[green yarrow]

I read an article of an old GPU being better for inference than newer ones.

[brisk sparrow]

I'm still discussing congos with codex. This is sure one way to burn quota

[green yarrow]

I am going to play Skate. to relax. Think I need to get off chat. It's like I have Keyboard Tourette syndrome or something.

[gleaming pine]

What kind of name is Pickle Power

It’s a brand of a battery

[green yarrow]

Drone.

[gleaming pine]

not drone batteries

Much smaller batteries

[green yarrow]

Oh. Camera batteries.

[gleaming pine]

no, game console battery

It’s a ridiculous name to be serious about a product

[green yarrow]

I have never got into a game console before. I only had gameboys growing up.

[gleaming pine]

All I am thinking about is pickles, not batteries

[green yarrow]

I think it's like a PC though.

[gleaming pine]

It is a GameBoy battery

Later models, not the original

[green yarrow]

I see. I like Nintendo, but I wish they had the games on Steam... I know...

I don't want to illegally run them. So just sell them to me.

[gleaming pine]

[green yarrow]

I can't figure out what gameboy batter that is. It looks familiar. I had the pocket, the advance, the SP, and the DS.

I was too young to open them though.

I like fire data. I have always wanted to build a machine-learning model to measure fire risk. This is a chart of MODIS fire data Codex made in my neural-labs desktop.

I haven't done law enforcement stuff. Fire & Search/Rescue. Drones with lidar and other sensors to detect people for search operations is one example. My friend builds drones. We are saving up for a lidar sensor.

Like detecting people lost out at sea or in the wilderness. With drones and Ai to trace them down. That is something I would work on.

[gleaming pine]

You never had the Gameboy Micro?

[green yarrow]

😂 Bro I forgot about that one

I never got it.

[gleaming pine]

There was the GameBoy, GameBoy Color, GameBoy Advance, GameBoy Advance SP, and GameBoy Micro as far as I know

[gleaming pine]

That’s way too easy to do

HTML based files

You don’t even need an AI really to make that in a few hours

[green yarrow]

Lol. For real? How are you going to run the machine-learning models to detect people using HTML?

You would need to build an API at least.

[gleaming pine]

When you start building things that have never been done, that’s when it takes awhile, lots of rate limiting on higher plans, and lots of frustration between you and the LLM

[gleaming pine]

I don’t even see a machine learning implementation in that screenshot. It doesn’t show much.

I just see HTML, in-line CSS and JavaScript, and a Leaflet map with data

[green yarrow]

It builds a javascript backend.

I see. I primarily use python/rust. Lately node.js. But I usually use APIs for MCP servers, etc.

[gleaming pine]

Yeah well it’s not shown by the screenshot

[green yarrow]

I am using a docker container as a dev environment in that screenshot.

[gleaming pine]

Law enforcement mapping requires open source data unfortunately

[green yarrow]

I have done Chicago crime stat data. That data is publicly available.

[warped kettle]

Kahoot 219 1265

[gleaming pine]

Military, federal law enforcement, state law enforcement, and tactical units will always encrypt their radios

So you can’t use scanners or implement any real time incident tracking

A lot of municipalities use unencrypted radio though

So it is possible, it’s just not as easy to implement

[green yarrow]

I joined the kahoot

[gleaming pine]

CrimeRadar did it and Citizen did it through SamDesk

[green yarrow]

I used Socrata.

[gleaming pine]

I don’t know how other countries work as well

[green yarrow]

I haven't heard of those. Thanks for the intel.

[gleaming pine]

Kahoot lmao?

[green yarrow]

Connection was lost.

Lol. I was ready to play.

[fathom tiger]

Get notified for all OpenAI announcements!

[gleaming pine]

Silence bot

[green yarrow]

Nay. Let them. I shall register.

[gleaming pine]

What

[green yarrow]

It's a discord bot. I build them. I want to learn what they are doing with their bot.

I have a discord bot named Alshival.

It is hooked up to Github and knows the codebase.

I ask it questions and my clients can ask it too.

[warped kettle]

Fixed kahoot 968
6841

[green yarrow]

It sends GIFs too.

Kahoot

Bro this kahoot has me laughing.

I don't see the questions.

That was amazing. Lol.

I played Kahoot by myself and got all answers wrong and still got 1st place.

Amazing.

That was funny lol. I liked that one.

[warped aurora]

fix your table formatting

[green yarrow]

I can't

[warped aurora]

fair enough

[green yarrow]

Discord doesn't do markdown tables.

If there is a way of printing tables in Discord, I am unaware. Would be nice though. I could teach the agent how to return output with that table.

[warped aurora]

is this mantine.dev ?

[green yarrow]

No I built it. It's alshival.dev

We have a networks switch with raspberry pis we use as development environments. Plus a social area for our team to put notes and stuff.

And Alshival can answer questions about our projects. It has access to our team's github. It also sends us emails or sms and stuff when something goes wrong.

It's like a self-hosted azure. You can add public routes (port 80/443) or restrict SSH to our team's VPN. Like a dev bundle for dev teams powered by Raspberry Pi. I want to add a GPU node so me and my staff can train on it. A 5090 for the team. I'll hold onto the 5070. Mine. Lol.

Codex powers the Alshival assistant. What powers Alshival is good documentation. It knows how to ssh into our firewall, our switch, and each raspberry pi. Experimental, and requires hardware. A network rack.

So think kubernetes, control plane. The Ai controls the network of computers and raspberry pi. When our team needs a machine, they can check the machine out.

It sounds like a bad idea, but we know what we are doing. Our team develops on Azure/AWS/GCP. But we wanted to run our own data center in our backyards, and that is what led to Alshival.

We have it on a leash. It can only do certain things by itself. It can generate blog posts. It can post or update its profile or add something to the team timeline. Etc. But what if I let it auto generate and execute code? What would it decide to do? That is unknown.

I just wanted to talk about this, because this is so funny to me. 😭

[glossy nacelle]

Here's an interview from TacticMedia about the Chernobyl disaster, centered on the memories of Grigory Kirichenko, a Soviet dosimetrist who worked at the site in 1987 and 1988. The discussion revisits the aftermath of the 1986 reactor explosion, the long cleanup effort, and the role of the liquidators who helped build the Shelter around Reactor 4.

After talking about his life and career, Kirichenko shares firsthand reflections on what it was like to work in the contaminated zone, how radiation was measured and managed, and what dangers the specialists faced during operations inside and around the ruined reactor.

I've subtitled this entire thing with Whisper and Codex and corrected some stuff myself.

[tranquil summit]

First? heh

[deep haven]

hi joannestie, hope you're having a good start to your morning

[ashen fulcrum]

i wonder what the difference between general and off-topic is 🤔

i wonder if off-topic is redundant since we can have threads in general-chatter

[deep haven]

suppose now we have a place for talking about dall-e 2 specifically, and one for sharing other random stuff

y'all wanna see my new kitten?

[warped wyvern]

I just clarified this in #announcements — we recommend that #openai-chatter be somewhat relevant (even if loosely) to things that everyone in this Discord might be interested in!

and #off-topic for anything but that, like @deep haven ‘s new kitten 😻

[deep haven]

she's so sweet already 😭 took one or two days to get used to me. her name's stella

[ashen fulcrum]

i see, thanks for the clarification

[warped wyvern]

ok so @ashen fulcrum what’s a school stroll! (I’m based in California and am wondering if it’s a non-US thing or I’m just not cultured)

[ashen fulcrum]

well in germany we call it "Abiturstreich"

i'd share a video but it's too big for discord 😅

i can share some images though!!

[deep haven]

yes please

honestly i just said "yay!" because you had fun but i have no clue what it is

[ashen fulcrum]

context: when you graduate, after a short while your grade organised a "troll"/"joke"/"festival" where students and teachers can have fun

we arrived very early and where chaotically moving around tables and chairs around the school

[ashen fulcrum]

maybe i used the wrong word 😅

this is how it looked like in the hallways, pretty fun and chaotic

we also put a lot of lights in the building and all our papers/conspects were thrown around

and for 4 hours the students went to their classes/ exams and we were preparing a stage for later, it was then mainly used to organise contests between teachers, which i won't show since they reveal faces of my teachers, i'm currently picking low quality/ no faces photos 😅

[deep haven]

why wasn't i invited

that looks so fun

[ashen fulcrum]

the contests where teachers karaoke and Q&A on exam topics for teachers of other subjects

then we have danced to macarena and another cool song on stage

hmmm

i hope i'm not lagging or so oh no ;-;

apparently the video fails to upload

[tranquil summit]

When I was in high school some of the teachers on the last day of school would let us wad our papers into balls and throw them at each other the last few minutes of the last day, then we had to clean them up. That was always fun.

Even very introverted types would get involved

[ashen fulcrum]

it's more in that direction, sadly discord filters some video footage of us dancing on stage so i can't show it ;-;

[tranquil summit]

So I've found that discord's image filter even prevents me from sharing some DALL-E 2 images

Specifically I put a still of the Crafsman puppet in to generate variations, and it assumed it was pornography

A fuzzy puppet...

^Crafsman

[ashen fulcrum]

this is the server setting that handles the image censor afaik

let me try again

nope

[tranquil summit]

It was a variation of this query that got flagged as inappropriate

not on this discord though, but I don't have the original query handy

I wonder just how many images across the internet get dinged as false positives when they aren't even remotely close to what is considered inappropriate by the software

And the amount of frustration created as a result

[ornate copper]

cuuute

[ashen fulcrum]

to know you outside of dall-e, what media do you guys consume?

i play genshin/honkai and watch anime pretty much

[tranquil summit]

Watch Taskmaster, the most recent season if you have access to it - hands down the best season yet.

Hilarious show, they have older seasons on their youtube

[ashen fulcrum]

i see, i'll take a look

[tranquil summit]

Former co-worker recommended it to me eary this year and my wife and I watched every single season, some are a miss, some like this one are consistently hysterical

Bunch of british comedians/actors compete against each other in silly things over the course of a season to win a trophy of Greg Davies

[ashen fulcrum]

have you seen stargate sg-1?

[tranquil summit]

Pffft, I've seen everything stargate

I'm still mad Universe didn't get a concrete ending

[ashen fulcrum]

yeah :c

i binged stargate like 3-4 times

[tranquil summit]

yeah I've watched every series at least twice

[ashen fulcrum]

i still cry every time when a certain sg-1 members ascend for the 2nd/3rd time

[tranquil summit]

I thnk I've seen sg-1 4 times

[ashen fulcrum]

good show

[tranquil summit]

It really was, until teal'c gets hair

[ashen fulcrum]

XD

[tranquil summit]

Kinda like when Riker's facial hair changes

[ashen fulcrum]

i like both teal'cs

when i watched game of thrones i was like "oh waits thats my atlantis guy"

i will always remember jason mamoa as Ronon Dex

[tranquil summit]

I heard that they got rid of his dreads in atlantis because they were giving him migraines #randomfact

something about the weight of them

[ashen fulcrum]

hmmmm

i haven't heard about that >_<

[tranquil summit]

Similar to those, Sliders was good until around the time his brother joins the show

And x-files was good until Robert Patrick joined, then got good again for the season they did a handful of years ago

Oh!

[ashen fulcrum]

#anotherrandomfact Did you know that the first two-three episodes of sg-1 were higher rated to attract an adult audience but they made the rest g-rated to make it family friendly?

[tranquil summit]

Right now, while my wife is away for 2 weeks, I've been binging For All Mankind. Great show

[tranquil summit]

Caprica pilot was R-rated material, changed to a mild pg-13 type content for the show too

[ashen fulcrum]

hmm

maybe i misremember the rating kind

sorry 😅

what people will do for marketing 😳

[tranquil summit]

Yeah, Caprica just added some heavy sexual-ish type content for the pilot, then was like "oh, we're going on syfy"

[ashen fulcrum]

that seems to be strategy for several shows

i must admit i havent seen anything movie-ish in like 2 years

since i started watching anime/cartoons pretty much

i just prefer the voice acting and "abstract" emotions

_< <- what emotion do you see here?

[tranquil summit]

Top Gun Maverick is visually pleasing. Free Guy was pretty fun too

[tranquil summit]

To me that isn't an emotion as much as it is squeezing one's eyes which could be several

[ashen fulcrum]

wait i've seen squid game! but that's it pretty much

[ashen fulcrum]

yeah, that's why i like use and overusing it, confused? >_<, laughing? >_< you don't know the answer or playing silly? >_< innocent? ^_^

[tranquil summit]

I do it with "heh".

[deep haven]

i use heh too

[tranquil summit]

Wow that was funny heh. He's such an idiot heh. I am at cut my finger off heh. I just got paid heh.

[autumn geyser]

Hey, being accepted into Dall-E users doesn't include dall e2 access eh

[rare river]

?

[deep haven]

[dreamy epoch]

maybe you meant dalle2 no dalle1 access? I think once you wrote dalle you thought dalle2 was left to type so you switched them around in your comment?

[autumn geyser]

I applied for dalle1 wait-list in April and then dalle2 some time more recently. My question is, if I'm approved for 1 it doesn't give me access to 2 does it?

[dreamy epoch]

Where is the DALL-E 1 waitlist? I never (and still don't) saw it on their website. Also, April 6 is when DALL-E 2 came out though.

[deep haven]

yeah, you might be confusing them!

[autumn geyser]

Alright I must be then. When I got invited it never said dall e 2, nor does the website I use so I assumed it was dall e 1

[deep haven]

i thought so as well. welcome!

[fresh raptor]

Hey, any lens studio developer here that would like to collaborate on something and utilize DALLE to make unique effects? Hit me up!

[frail garnet]

i do spark ar, what are you planning to do?

[craggy lynx]

Does anyone lucid dream and find their dreams similar to dalle2? For example, the way faces or text appears in their dreams. Or sometimes absurd imagery that at the time seems perfectly normal. When I first got access to dalle2 I felt like my brain worked in a similar way. On top of dreams, it was strange how the images were like how I visualized things too (especially with partial face blindness when I try to picture faces it’s similar to dalle2 sometimes where it’s swirly)

[ashen fulcrum]

If only I would remember how lucid dreaming feels like because I forget it the second I wake up 😓

But yeah the feeling is similar

[rancid tiger]

never even had a lucid dream before

[ashen fulcrum]

it’s a state of dream where you are aware in simple words

[rancid tiger]

yeah I've heard about it

[ashen fulcrum]

oh

“had”

forgive me it’s 6:17 here i just woke up

and now i’ll go to continue my sleep XD

[rancid tiger]

I really wanna have one because it sounds dope but idk how to force it, if it's possible to do so

[ashen fulcrum]

you definitely had one

except you just forgot when waking up

[rancid tiger]

hmmm

[ashen fulcrum]

what also helps if you are relaxed

[rancid tiger]

wait lucid dreams are where you can control it right or am I getting them mixed up

[ashen fulcrum]

well yeah

[rancid tiger]

oh

forgive my small brain

[ashen fulcrum]

but the main aspect is that you are aware that you are dreaming

controling it can sometimes come, sometimes not

[rancid tiger]

ah

[ashen fulcrum]

i have failed to select the word and to time the screenshot

i need more sleep, talk to you later!

[craggy lynx]

Try wild method https://www.reddit.com/r/LucidDreaming/comments/trz9z/beginners_wild_method_adjustments_tricks_and_tips/

https://lucid.fandom.com/wiki/Wake_Initiated_Lucid_Dream

First step is improving dream recall and you can do that with dream journal

@rancid tiger ^

Another thing my dreams are similar to dalle2 is that they are grounded in reality. For example it’s hard to do things that are unrealistic, much like how dalle2 has trouble generating unrealistic photographs. Gravity has to be obeyed unless i can trick the laws of reality in the dream like using a tool to fly (a broom, jet pack, etc), much like telling dalle2 to use photoshop or that the animal you want is magical

[rancid tiger]

hmmm

interesting

[rancid tiger]

goodnight mate

assuming you are going to sleep further

[ashen fulcrum]

oh no as i said i just woke up too early

and didnt properly finish resting

Github Copilot?

[tranquil summit]

This

[ashen fulcrum]

ahh i see

i thought you meant the autocomplete copilot provides

[tranquil summit]

I may try and play with it this weekend, I'm getting a handful of new tables at work and might be handy to rewrite a bunch of my queries and write a dozen or so new ones... or at least do the heavy lifting and then I tweak them to my liking

[tranquil summit]

Oof, the SQL translate is a nightmare for my use case. Our column names are far from standardized across tables and I spent more time setting it up with info for 4 joins than it would have taken me to actually just write the query and that was for a "simpler" join. If one had standardized column names across tables though, wow. Wow this would be a hecka useful tool.

Monday I might set some time aside and create some docs with all of our tables and the column names, then what in them joins to what elsewhere and what elsewhere joins to them. Then I'd be able to copy/paste, delete it fairly quickly and actually use it to save time...

totally random but I thought it was cool enough to share, since there are some artists in here - yesterday one of my past students, a 2021 graduate, visited and brought me these truly sleek pencils as a gift:

[sand jasper]

Recently launched a game that makes use of AI generated imagery:
https://daydreams.ai/
Daily hangman where you guess the image letter by letter.

Was playing with DALLE but ended up going with Midjourney because the images came out more abstract.

[frail garnet]

https://return.life/2022/06/29/the-mirror-of-language/

There's some challenging stuff to consider here but it's well presented and easy to work through even if you don't agree with where they're going with it, imo.

[hard quarry]

Hi

i want to finish it, but i come back in my living quarter too exhausted

Steam valves

[rare osprey]

This morning I tested positive for COVID, a day before I was booked to fly with my kids to see family in Canada. It would have been my first trip back since April 2019. To say I'm crushed is putting it mildly... 💔

Guess you guys will be stuck with me a bit longer 😐

[spiral rivet]

I hope you recover quickly.

[tall pendant]

Get well soon!

[raw willow]

Sorry to hear! Hope your kids avoid getting COVID.

[rare osprey]

Yeah same. One had it earlier in the year and I missed it... We're all as vaccinated as humanly possible so, fingers crossed 🤞

[raw willow]

What impeccable timing with school holidays and your trip. Stupid virus.

[rare osprey]

Gonna have to think of a bigger project than DALL·E to keep busy.

[abstract crest]

ha, fun!

[hard quarry]

[rare osprey]

anyone got any culty / lesser known movie suggestions? I'm into the usual big names but especially love Lynch, Villeneuve, Campion, Tarantino, Wes Anderson, Gondry etc... Love anything with a striking aesthetic. Or good writing. Or basically anything right now 😅

[vestal monolith]

@rare osprey Ive been exploring "The Sound of Music" and "The Florida Project"

[rare osprey]

Florida Project was great. Do you mean "The Sound of Metal"? Haven't seen that yet but heard good things

[vestal monolith]

haha this Sound of Music!

I wonder how it would take "Freaks and Geeks" / "Dazed and Confused"

[rare osprey]

Ahahah ok. Not my niche but I've definitely seen it

[vestal monolith]

Totally get that, doesn't align with the others mentioned at all lol

[untold python]

tarkovsky-stalker

lars von trier-europa

wong kar wai-fallen angels

[polar shore]

Eyes Wide Shut has a nice culty vibe.

[untold python]

what does you mean with culty?

[polar shore]

Lesser known, idk how that would fit, but American Horror Story has an outstanding aesthetic across all seasons

[untold python]

maybe i can give you more fitting recommendations than

black sun by kurahara is a less known movie. very jazzy!

[rare osprey]

Love Kubrick. I might have to watch Stalker, I've only seen Solaris... Lars von Trier is maybe a bit emotionally intense for me atm 😅

[untold python]

also everything by rainer werner fassbinder. just finished his 20 hours magnum opus „berlin,alexanderplatz“

[rare osprey]

Just stuff in the margins, less mainstream (because I've seen a lot)

[untold python]

edgar reitz heimat trilogy (in total 50-60 hours runtime)

[rare osprey]

I liked the first few seasons but think I saw enough

[untold python]

its the chronic of a family with in total three generations. 1919-2000. realistic as it gets regarding evolution of time, characters and history

[rare osprey]

culty = cinema that developed a small but avid following, rather than literally about cults

[untold python]

fun fact: stanley kubrick watched it twice in a row

[rare osprey]

Sounds cool. It could be a long week so I'll keep it in mind

[untold python]

this one was an intense experience

[rare osprey]

That looks good

Black Sun as well. I'll try to work out access

[untold python]

watched it on criterion channel back than. im not sure if they dropped it out of the catalog. have to rewatch surely+check our the catalog of the director!

here is an very trippy one: on the silver globe

http://exmilitai.re/film

legal streaming way

stalker is there too!

[rare osprey]

I binged a bunch of Werner Herzog recently. Really loved Stroszek

[untold python]

with additional two or three dystopian soviet scifis.

yeah watched it recently!

i like aguirre zorn des gottes with kinski

[rare osprey]

The ending was superb 😅 what a wild ride

Wrath of God in English I think

[untold python]

yes!

[rare osprey]

Also need to watch Fitzcarraldo through

[untold python]

actually ive watched a detailed documentary about the whole process…similar to apocalypse now: a hell of producing!!!

[rare osprey]

I can imagine

Similar doco about Gilliam's Don Quixote - Lost in La Mancha. Better than the feature they finally made a few years back

[untold python]

if you like werner herzog i can definetly recommend wim wenders (the sky over berlin, paris texas) and fassbinder.

[rare osprey]

I've seen Paris, Texas

[untold python]

im gonna check it out! love the behind doors experience of happenings or productions.

Discuss:

thispersondoesnotexist makes better “human” faces than dalle2

[deep haven]

yes, i assume their data set is virtually only faces, i think sometimes figments of outside imagery find their way into the faces of dalle generations as well

[polar shore]

12 = 2x the expenses for a non-profit project that’s currently unknown when it will start making $ I think we should be grateful to have the opportunity for free access.

[polar shore]

I think we aren’t seeing the full extent of DALL-E’s capabilities of human face generation.

If it’s currently heavily moderated then the chance of getting a “good” result is altered

[tepid pumice]

Agreed DALL-E is under much wider scrutiny than thispersondoesnotexist so they can get away doing that. Here's a post that argues in favour of deepfakes https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/actors-deepfakes-russell-palmer/ and it's got some weight.

well, I'm officially out of quarantine today. I'm going to go to a gig tonight but otherwise... twiddles thumbs

[mighty brook]

i just realised im a reddit user for 6 yrs now 💀💀💀💀

[ornate copper]

Reddit is so cringe. I wanna remove my posts. Getting downvoted for not wrtiting out my prompts on a post with 18 images 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

All i have to say is

🗿

[polar shore]

“what’s the prompt!!!!” and it’s literally more than obvious what the god damn prompt was

Found a sweet timer to see when image generations are ready, called multitimer, probably android only though and costs, but has been good to check time remaining. I've got like 50 timers on here lol 😂 thought people might find this helpful

[polar shore]

@cold canopy it’s rainy outside but I’ll go for a quick smoke 😁🤟

[cold canopy]

hahaha

[polar shore]

@dreamy sand I moved here cause we are not rly discussing dall-e as much, I’m going on a smoke walk to my favourite park next to my home 🏡

And it started raining here as well but I’m not afraid 🌧

[cold canopy]

whos darko? 😛

lol

[polar shore]

Extra relaxation points

[polar shore]

Ayyy he just replied in #openai-chatter

[dreamy sand]

True that. Hope the weather gets better for both of us. Need a break from a display

[dreamy sand]

It is I 😁

[cold canopy]

hahahaha

[polar shore]

Heading to the park and I’m shivering hahahaha

[cold canopy]

is that C or F ?

[polar shore]

idk what I was expecting 🤷‍♂️

[cold canopy]

haha

isnt that also the fun? XD

[dreamy sand]

We prefer higher temperatures at this time of the year in this part 🤣

[cold canopy]

haha

[polar shore]

Guys so do you have dall-e ptsd

Do you see images on the internet and assume they are generated

Or do you see them and think “I wonder what the prompt was” when it’s a real pic

😄😄

[cold canopy]

lol yep

like my eyes are automatically checking the corners for watermarks

lololol

[dreamy sand]

Wondering about prompts and watermarks. Especially when I look at concept artists

[cold canopy]

i got a new trainee 😛

YES

my friend went to a pageant few days ago and. He sent me this photo

I SWEAR I SAW A FRICKING AI GENERATED PHOTO AT FIRST 😭

[polar shore]

Omg it even has the AI artefact vibe

😭😭😭

[mighty brook]

RIGHT? If you really inspect the photo it’s not AI 🥲🥲

it warped my perception of things whether if it’s organic or ai

[polar shore]

😭👍 and that’s just the beginning

[mighty brook]

🥲🥲🥲

if you love dream pop or shoegaze, go listen to the new Alvvays single “Pharmacist” !!!! aaaaa

https://youtu.be/eH5mqLjwg6U

[cold canopy]

that 90's intro sure gives me a "back in time" XD

vibe+

[mighty brook]

yeah theyre a 90s inspired band :))), dream pop outfit, but now theyre apparently making shoegaze music 🔥

[cold canopy]

hahaha

[cold canopy]

hes such a lazy boy ...

he steals my old uniform cloths, places it where he wants to lay down..and goes to lalala land with this "i dont care" attitude 😂

[deep haven]

i love that boy sm

[cold canopy]

😂 his name is Nooky

[cold canopy]

little but sad story behind it, its a foundling, ppl dumped this poor kitty during a winter no less, anyway, he found a warm spot outside the garden i guess of a little shoe brush shaped thing, brought 'm in, fed 'm, got meds and checked out, and now is a loyal friend 😄

he rly enjoys himself the good life ...

haha

if you are a good in guessing cat ages, you would help me out

coz nobody yet has figured that out

something along the lines of 1~1.5 years they think

[sand jasper]

What discords are we all on?
I’m on

• Open AI DALLE-2
• Disco Diffusion
• Midjourney

[deep haven]

just around dall-e 2/ai art

OpenAI DALL·E 2, my prompt engineering server, fanmade dalle server, another fanmade server, old prompt engineering server, @frail garnet's server and midjourney

[odd estuary]

oh gosh... they've made the side-bar scroll far more than just 10... It looks like now the side-scroll is 50?! am I just noticing this now? anyway, thanks so much, OpenAI!

[tall pendant]

Just noticed this and I think they sure did! A nice temporary solution for a prompt counter.

[odd estuary]

Yeah! Starting each day with a "fresh session" and being able to track everything over the day. So appreciated!

[polar shore]

Yooo, that’s amazing!

[cold canopy]

i see a service just got born here, 😄

[frail garnet]

I've been using Dall-E to imagine images to go along with some of the poetry I've been writing. I really like how this specific piece came together:

[cold canopy]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieDIpgso4no

say what now??

O_O

@tall pendant

😂

this is getting ridiculous, i was born in a time where most ppl said "look this voodoo shit, isnt real" now im at this age where all that stuff is now flipped as being "partial" truth or completely true

and im so confused but interested too 😄

@polar shore

thats what came to mind when i was looking at ur iterations

that same style

sandy, foggy, dystophian'ish

but sci-fi in a flat way

[polar shore]

Ayyy that’s sick

[polar shore]

The metaphysical is real 🙏

[cold canopy]

yeah its mighty fascinating but also conflicts with alot of things i thought to be true

in my head that is

[polar shore]

If you want you can research on how energy affects water structure and the experiment on how words can affect how a plant grows

[cold canopy]

im not saying its wrong or right, im just saying if this theory is right, then we have to revise (revisit?) alot of things

lololol

[polar shore]

They carried this experiment multiple times @cold canopy

2 identical plants with exact amount of sun and water they receive, in the same room

one is fed good words - you are a beautiful plant etc, and good energy

[cold canopy]

yeah so the test is repeatable, clonable

[polar shore]

the other is fed bad words - you’re a shitty plant, you won’t grow

[cold canopy]

?

[polar shore]

drastic results in the end 😁🤟

[cold canopy]

hmm

[polar shore]

yes you can try it yourself, 2-3 weeks experiment!

[cold canopy]

i need to dig into this before i open my mouth at all

[polar shore]

I’ll look for it on YouTube when I get home

[cold canopy]

that be nice thx tretzor

[polar shore]

We are energy my man, I’m deeply spiritual 😁

[cold canopy]

hehehe

i suppose we seen our fair share of "what the fu...." and then had to come up with an explanation that fitted to our truth ...or the truth.

like for instance, that phenomena if u traveling in space, in a specific mass/gravity then time flows vastly different then we on earth do

that was so confusing when i saw that

[polar shore]

Anything space and time related is a big fog for me, hahahaha

[cold canopy]

ISS astronauts have a 2 weeks offset

time+

[polar shore]

It’s so relative it’s crazy

[cold canopy]

2 weeks!!!

just that little distance

not that its significant, but still

i could be wrong on the figures, i could have sworn it was 2 weeks

but dont quote me on it

[polar shore]

https://youtu.be/Yx6UgfQreYY

Even IKEA recreated this experiment

And all the masses talk about is bullshit pop culture hahaha

[cold canopy]

The time dilation effect in ISS is not measurable with only ordinary Instruments Resources and Information.is too small at that speeds.Only at speeds near that of light there will be appreciable change in time. .So ISS have same time speed as earth.

this should clear it up a bit

but there is a difference

its just very small

[cold canopy]

Ikea for real?

never hear much about these fella's, but this is certainly not expected from them

"like here's ur chair you ordered btw we talked to ur chair, she is in a state of happiness

i'd be mildy concerned if a company gave me that advice XD

[polar shore]

Well the point is way, way deeper than that 😁

Not to get too political

😁😁😁

[cold canopy]

oh no i would not even dare

i hate politics

just the word is a trigger for me XD

yech

no lets keep to science, real , touchable, testable stuff

sensory observable input 😄

and heck why not, add time crystals to it ..

im a in good mood 😛 😛 😛

[polar shore]

https://youtu.be/zvShgttIq7I

[tall pendant]

My mind just broke watching this

[polar shore]

people call it the “impossible” experiment where in actuality it’s the “natural” experiment

energy directly applies to the human body and mind as well

energy can also affect the schrodinger cat experiment as well, I think we spoke about that a few days ago

[cold canopy]

lol

"entropy" has alot of subs that have yet to find a solution, as what to others refer as "infinite" being beyond, but what they dont consider is, infinite is closer 1 then the moon itself. 😂

think floats

so, sometimes the solution is so weirdly close to ourselves

its almost surreal

[frail garnet]

Yeah, it's a pretty surprising development. Now imagine what's gonna happen when we adjust our systems of science and sensemaking to adjust to these new (old) developments. The good news is that it seems like the main point is to be excellent to one another and there's a pile of ways to go about that.

[untold python]

my mom joined waitlist today

[cold canopy]

she a Karin?

coz then we might have a problem there is no manager here, sir.

jk 😛

[frail garnet]

I spent a bit of time writing a paper intending to get it peer reviewed because what you've said is true, and yet, it's rejected very heavily by a fairly small group of people with significant influence in economic and cultural spaces.

Instead of finishing the paper I wrote a blog post about it (and included some more pics from Dall-E)
https://ericlortie.medium.com/combining-stories-to-bring-people-together-7644f26e4342

[oak gazelle]

It's definitely not two weeks, heh, but sure, there is a slight difference over time. For example, someone would have to be in the ISS for 100 years to be 1 second behind someone on earth.

https://www.wired.com/2014/11/time-dilation/

[cold canopy]

yeah im not very rich informed on all of it 😮

so ...my wording and answers are prob wrong lol

[frail garnet]

so far I have tried 70 different film types for dall-e 2https://www.aviewfromai.com/post/100-different-film-types-for-dall-e-2

[odd estuary]

Legend. I can't wait look through your results.

[rare osprey]

Great stuff! The Fujichrome films look especially good, I'll have to use those

[tall pendant]

Thank you for this! Awesome work.

[rare osprey]

@cold canopy this is one of the great detective films. Highly underrated https://youtu.be/fAYheZweypk

oh dear

thats whole new color arrangement

[cold canopy]

men these grow fast XD

and he gets rebellious too 😛

Whats this thing do starts hacking away with his beak 😛

haha

also how can cats sleep like this ?

lol

🥰 dont u just love them

@frigid mango if you would have to depict an animal that relates and reflects your soul, what animal would that be ?

hes barely a month

2,5 week'ish, im expecting him/her to get air born in the next month

[frail garnet]

thanks!

[frigid mango]

https://labs.openai.com/s/OY9dGrsIAMmtolyAp8ZTw00k How great it is that i can reply with dalle 😂

What about you??

[cold canopy]

ooh the chameleon, you picked yourself a specialist.

intersting choice

there is almost no, if any, animal that can do what the Chameleon does.

i personally like the Fox

[frigid mango]

but also salamander, i admire their ability to just leave their tail behind when in danger and then regrow it again.

[cold canopy]

awareness, adaptation, stealth and foremost the ability to regenerate

and cold blooded

[frigid mango]

nice fox is also a good choice 🙂

[cold canopy]

i suppose u approve of this? XD

[frigid mango]

looks cool 🙂

[cold canopy]

Snow Owls

gotta love the feather details

[frigid mango]

i'm off now, speak later!

6 cylinder engine

[cold canopy]

looks awesome 😄

[dreamy epoch]

It's not in the way we know it from movies "time travel" though, it's really just they mean it slows down the ageing of whatever is onboard, like Cryonics. I.e. slows down the evolution of what would happen faster naturally.

[cold canopy]

ya know whats a really good place for these cars ?

Cuba , no questions asked.

😂

such a beautiful country, like u travel back in time

[sage prairie]

I would like to visit it

[cold canopy]

word

[cold canopy]

but we love home more

😄

[sage prairie]

Yeah true hehe

That is not a Torino :(
(But btw the drawings are amazing)

[oak gazelle]

Well, time does pass differently, but the speed difference has to be huge for it to be noticeable.

[dreamy epoch]

was writing somethin but nevermind i already said it

[ashen fulcrum]

any html programmers here

[mellow river]

Now that crypto is no longer a big deal and GPUs are becoming cheaper, do you guys think AI stuff prices will drop too?

[cold canopy]

RTX cards wasnt it, they used?

or cuda cards

for AI (deep learning) RTX cards are the ones they want

they contain the technology

[cold canopy]

😛

[polar shore]

Does that also change the environmental effects of NFTs

[mellow river]

Probably

I hope

What's your thoughts on people offering "art" services without disclosing that their "work" is made by an AI? Seeing this happening with other tools like MJ. Pretty sure this will happen too with DALL•E when they allow commercial use.
