See comments above -- its not logic for banning, its a coalition-building tactic, which is generally employed in most decisions we make/persuasions we carry out.

Banning things, adding taxes for things, providing incentives are all tools we have to manage externalities. We generally have a budget for how many restrictions we can impose, and we've banned plenty of things (such as slavery). Obvio

This is tactical in nature. In a democracy, you need to find a coalition to support what you want (either directly to vote for it, or indirectly to pressure their representatives). All decisions of this sort come from a passionate group of

Oh don't get me started on outdoor cats...

This is why we also have the arguments "Think of the dogs!" and "Think of the veterans!", which no empathetic person can be against (even though, yes, these arguments employ an array of manipulation tactics...).

Sure, but one does not need to convince the fans of fireworks, rather one needs to convince enough fans of dogs (of which there are quite a few)

Strong disagree, but there is clearly an argument for everyone here :)

I honestly believe we should ban fireworks and firework shows across the country. Not only are they (apparently) bad for the environment and likely to cause wildfires*, have the potential to trigger PTSD**, but they also make the large majo

This has the same feeling as leaking AI-generated text back to the training data...

Wonderful! Yeah, admittedly, I haven't sat out and drawn it out (my process for learning algorithms is often just do it by hand until it intuitively makes sense), but it did strike me as pretty straightforward on first glance. Thanks!

I know LLMs are all the rage, but I’m genuinely shocked at the new fastest path algo for negative weight graphs. That’s awesome!

by elijahbenizzy 3y ago
Yeah! Kind of terrifying... The only thing giving me comfort here is that these were all done in a single day, and I can't help but wonder if there's some bug or correlation. That said, even if its a bug in the model that they rol

Wasn’t interpreted that way! And yeah, part of it is stochastic, but part is just that it has crazy associations and no social cues so it kinda just does whatever.

Good point -- in this case I'm using the URL it passes back, which was the only information it had. The original one was passed either as base64 encoded or a URL. IIRC the URL they passed back was random-feeling, but I'd have to l

Yeah, its kind of crazy sometimes. Quite possibly training data on DeviantArt?

Hey now, that's a latte I made :) But yes, agreed, B- art without question. The caption is based on the original image, which is one I snapped a few mornings ago. Feels like it only moves towards an overdramatic representation, which p

Looks to be back up and running faster! Possibly cause this is no longer on the front page. Also I have confirmation that someone at snowflake is looking into it :) Enjoy the dataset -- still uploading...

Unfortunately nope, see the description above. Costs about $15/sequence of 150, but if you have one you'd like to see I'm happy to kick it off... That said, all the instructions for getting started and running your own are th

by elijahbenizzy 3y ago
Yeah, and some specific images even... Part of this is likely due to my prompting (I use an adverb to prompt, E.G. "describe this image obsessively "), which likely leads to some sort of clustering...

Hey folks! Hitting some scaling issues. It should work if you refresh enough (and also probably make it worse :)). Hoping to get some help from Streamlit (see if they'll be nice enough to press the magic scale button), but in the meanw

No kidding! That's great to know, and they run it for you. Thanks! The difference is that I've run really long chains (and have a few nuances in captioning/prompting), but essentially its the same idea. Thank you for sending!

by elijahbenizzy 3y ago
Yeah! It went through quite a few creative spots before ending at the starry cathedral, which plenty others also ended up at as well (seems like a local minima/maxima...)
113.
by elijahbenizzy 3y ago
Yeah, scaling issues. Hold tight, I'm reaching out to see if I can get help. Otherwise refreshing should work (or just DDOS it more :))

by elijahbenizzy 3y ago
Ughh that’s streamlit/community edition. Refresh and it’ll work — I’ll see if I can quickly spin up a deployment. Otherwise I’ll post static resources :)
