"It's not the models they want to align, it's you."

- rvnx 3y agoWhat he thinks about non-AI topics in his free time is his choice; his political choices don't invalidate his other thoughts. Like with Stallman, if you listen about his political thoughts vs his software engineering thoughts.
- Cthulhu_ 3y agoWhile that thoughtpiece makes me not like him as a person, your point is correct; the comment you're replying to is a low effort ad hominem, attacking the person and something they said about a different subject instead of addressing the actual remark about models.
- aredox 3y agoCome on, his point is not about AI but about politics: "they" versus "you". And he is completely, totally incompetent on this - and by the way, he's also completely incompetent on AI, and on most of tech. See his stint at twitter...
- jtr1 3y agoWhat specific cases are being prevented by safety controls that you think should be allowed?
- Tomte 3y agoNot specifically SD, but DallE: I wanted to get an image of a pure white British shorthair cat on the arm of a brunette middle-aged woman by the balcony door, both looking outside. It wasn‘t important, just something I saw in the moment and wanted to see what DallE makes of it. Generation denied. No explanation given, I can only imagine that it triggered some detector of sexual request? (It wasn‘t the phrase "pure white", as far as I can tell, because I have lots of generated pics of my cat in other contexts)
- bonton89 3y agoWell for starters, ChatGPT shouldn't balk at creating something "in Tim Burton's style" just because Tim Burton complained about AI. I guess its fair use unless a select rich person who owns the data complains. Seems like it isn't fair use at all then, just theft from those who cannot legally defend themselves.
- archontes 3y agoFair use is an exception to copyright. The issue here is that it's not fair use, because copyright simply does not apply. Copyright explicitly does not, has never, and will never protect style.
- SamBam 3y agoDidn't Tom Waits successfully sue Frito Lay when the company found an artist that could closely replicate his style and signature voice, who sang a song for a commercial that sounded very Tom Waits-y?
- dangrossman 3y agoYes, though explicitly not for copyright infringement. Quoting the court's opinion, "A voice is not copyrightable. The sounds are not 'fixed'." The case was won under the theory of "voice misappropriation", which California case law (Midler v Ford Motor Co) establishes as a violation of the common law right of publicity.
- thefourthchime 3y agoNo, it's the cacophony of zealous point scores on X they want to avoid.
