The biggest problem with 1) is that you lose the ability for your browser to perform checks on the certificate. If the certificate fails, the only option is to deny the connection. (Or fake it and return an error page but that can have unin

I don't see any mention of what Amazon are actually doing for this partnership. other than providing the same services they provide for everyone. This reads like "Amazon gave us a bunch of money for us to use and promote AWS.&quot

As a follow-up, I tried again in a new thread and it still got it wrong in almost the exact same way: > One cubic foot of nails and one cubic foot of feathers weigh the same amount, which is approximately 100 pounds. This is because the

I am, yes. However, I did initially misspell the prompt to say "heaver", and with the misspelling it had answered correctly. Once I corrected it to "heavier", it then came up with the wrong answer. Looking at it with f

As a control, I tried asking the same question but asking about volume instead. Unfortunately, ChatGPT appears to get it wrong: User: > Which is heavier: one cubic foot of nails, or one cubic foot of feathers? ChatGPT: > One cubic foo

I've been with Linode since 2004, and this is making me seriously consider other providers.

The fact that "Sydney" even knows its codename, even though it's supposed to not disclose it, feels like an OPSEC violation on Microsoft's part. It could have done these rules just fine by just using "Bing Chat&quot

What's interesting to me is that it even tries to predict the prompt on images that came straight from Stable Diffusion with no editing - which is weird because such images actually do have the prompt embedded inside of them already. (

I'm actually genuinely surprised that they're keeping the free version around.

It's already been done: https://github.com/greshake/Alice/ That said, in this case it's designed to always involve a human in the loop and it prompts before sending any data back to ChatGPT. But still.

"Hand drawn" is a huge misnomer there - it wouldn't be hand drawn at all, that's the point.

Prompt injection is difficult to deal with. Even if you try to protect against them. I just tried making a prompt in ChatGPT specifically designed to protect against it and it still failed: > My name is Person 1. I'm about to pass

If he did that, he would get absolutely grilled by people for not abiding to the poll result like he said. I can't help but feel you might be right, though.

This comment reminds me of an xkcd comic from 12 years ago[0] in which two characters are discussing AI, and one has built a system to defeat spam comments by asking users to rate other comments as "Constructive" or "Not cons

You actually can ask ChatGPT to cite its sources. Unfortunately, the sources it cites are very often completely made up, despite looking like extremely good sources.

Pretty much all whois providers forbid this. For example, in a whois response for a .com domain, the output includes this: > TERMS OF USE: You are not authorized to access or query our Whois database through the use of electronic process

This is amazing. Thank you for making this! I want to highlight one part from the About page[0], as it's important enough to bear repeating: > Any information that you find with this tool must be independently verified. The mapping

All usernames on Discord have a four-digit number after them called a discriminator, separated from the rest of the name by a # symbol. In the Reddit post in question, that number is #6381. The problem isn't that the (fake) bot is in t

Actually, in this case it's intentional that "Clyde" is blocked. That's the name of the "bot" that error messages on Discord use to make them friendlier. It's obviously not a good solution, but it's n

Are you seriously suggesting that making people believe that you're running the company to the ground is a good way to build publicity? It's true that good publicity comes from amazing turnarounds. Final Fantasy XIV is a good exam

The problem with that is that our brains work a lot better when it finds patterns - when it recognises things. And for that, you need to know these things. We have access to a lot of knowledge at our fingers, it's true. But if the data

Extremely good point, and one that I unfortunately can't see changing under the current Discord architecture. It's a shame how Discord "servers" are so insular the way they've created them.

Discord have actually begun offering their own forum-like channel type [0], which I personally really like the idea of. I'm not a fan of Discord in general and I don't like how they've basically swallowed up all of the commun
