In theory you should be able to run untrusted code and be safe if permissions, sandboxes etc. are organized reasonably. The idea that you can tell if somebody's else code is malicious just by looking at it is flawed anyway and it'

OpenAI was talking about some kind of steganography so that previous outputs can be excluded from the training data. Not sure what's the progress on that.

What's with the NSFW need? I'd understand if this is some image generator, but here? Is it some sexting, "romance", or is NSFW about something else altogether?

No argument? She has shown that within widely accepted theory FTL could be possible. You need to poke a hole in that to say that she has no real argument. I think many physicist may dismiss it as, well, yes, given certain assumptions.. bu

Don't they do some part of identification for more expensive parts like battery and display so that you can't even switch them between two phones? But maybe I remember that wrong.

Right? I don't find enough people amazed by that. Only one computation per layer, even with attention mechanisms, and that's allowing to fit all abstractions (which seem deep sometimes, it can get pretty meta) and then on top of t

OpenAI becomes a really powerful corporation right now. Until reasonable alternatives are developed, in many professions you will be basically handicapped without it. And the cherry on top is that they have all inputs. These provide incompa

GPT4 is much better in that regard. With GPT3.5 I've had very similar problems. Plainly ignoring very simple directions (e.g. Do not output sentences starting with "In conclusion"). GPT4 unfortunately still does that, but it&

It's too expensive for now, but I'm pretty sure if you asked GPT-4 to evaluate other GPT-4 output based on some policies it would stop pretty much all of these attacks (if something would get through cracks it wouldn't be eas

I disagree. I think you are close to the truth, but Iraq war was not seen in a very negative light by US citizens, or people in EU for that matter. Which was what media pushed. But people can think on their own. Somebody in the thread may w
