Personally, I really want an AI model that can write me a steamy story about two people having sex in a train, but that's just not the service OpenAI provides. If I want that I should train one myself or find another vendor. This is still true even if OpenAI model is entirely capable of doing that. McKinsey consultants are smart and can write well, and among many thousands of people working at it some might actually double as an erotica writer after work, even writing for commission. You still wouldn't ask McKinsey consultants to write an erotica, it is just not the service McKinsey provides.

Startup pitch: It is like McKinsey but for erotica. On a more serious note. I understand and largely agree with this argument. However OpenAI have several times being argue that they are the only ones to be responsible enough to develop powerful AI, and that others should not be allowed to play. That is a highly problematic behavior on their part, I think.

  > OpenAI have several times being argue that they are the only ones to be responsible enough to develop powerful AI, and that others should not be allowed to play Can you give examples of where they’ve said that?

    He likely can't without heavy paraphrasing and/or not providing full context for the quote. They've said stuff along the lines of "good luck trying, but we're gonna win so...". That's just the kind of confidence you want to see in the frontrunner (imo). They've also encouraged regulation, but it's a smart idea to be the one to frame the conversation.

    He's been pretty vocal on that only anointed companies should be allowed to do AI and of course OpenAi should be one of them. As far as I'm concerned, he's just try to rug-pull. https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/16/tech/sam-altman-openai-congress/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/16/tech/sam-altman-openai-congre...

      The term you're looking for is that Sam is trying to pull the ladder up behind him. That, or: build a moat.

There are hundreds of NSFW finetuned models on HuggingFace and whole ERP communities built around them. So there are models that can do precisely that :) And yeah, all big models can write those things too, the best currently is Claude 3 Opus thanks to its creativeness.

The air was thick with tension as they locked eyes, their gazes burning with a desire that neither could ignore. (10s of paragraphs omitted for brevity) Claude-3-opus and GPT-4 both refused my request. Kudos for open source models!
