From the readme: >Bark has the capability to fully clone voices - including tone, pitch, emotion and prosody. The model also attempts to preserve music, ambient noise, etc. from input audio. However, to mitigate misuse of this technology

That's pretty good for the specific case, but fails in the general case. You could maybe generalize it out to altruism, if you believe your company being more efficient will be net good for other people, but that's not a given.

IIRC, GPT-2 and 3 are somewhat like this, asking a question often results in it giving you more questions instead of an answer, unless you give. ChatGPT and GPT-4's tendency to answer questions instead of continuing them comes from the

That would cause more harm than it would prevent. People calling from other people's phones is a common and necessary thing. Trying to detect faked voices would make sense.

The phenomenon they're referring to is when something spurious is posted on Wikipedia with no or poor citations, then used as the source for a "reputable" article (without citations), then the article is cited by Wikipedia, m

GPT-4's release doesn't seem like the relevant time marker, since nothing in the article builds on it or depends on it. The paper for H3 was submitted in December 2022. The pace the last few years definitely seems rapid, just don&

No, I haven't been, just know some people who are. I don't understand what you're referring to. Where was your money going? I understand you still have expenses when you aren't working, but the expenses don't scale

The labor force participation rate among the general population is ~60%. Among those 65-74, it's 25%. And that's not accounting for people who can't retire. It also doesn't account for those who want to work but are unab

I think the point where that is the case is pretty far off, since it requires endless fully-autonomous robots and no demand for human-created media or connection. But regardless, people throughout history have found happiness and meaning in

Cycling is more dangerous per mile traveled than cars [1]: "So we’ll compare risk at both the 6.2 billion and 21 billion miles traveled levels. 784 cyclists died in 2005 (p. 86). That would make the death rate of 0.37 to 1.26 deaths pe

That seems plausible to me. I assume if Adobe felt like even these results were too legally risky they could create a new embedding layer with fewer copyrighted concepts (so Deadpool would always output a spooky looking pool). I don't

It's interesting that the outputs still vaguely resemble the subjects of the prompts. It implies to me that there's still a little bit of the characters in the dataset, but not very much. If you look up "Pikachu" in Adob

Sure you can, for sufficiently small amounts of "huge". Lots of tech jobs make much more money than most other jobs without directly exploiting anyone. You could take issue with working for companies that are themselves unethical,

Why are you presuming that UBI will be funded through creating more money, instead of redirecting money and/or increasing taxes? Does that change your conclusion? Reducing taxes will not meaningfully increase economic opportunity for p

The other statements are biased too, but they're biased in favor of privacy and transparency. Being biased, here, just means having values and applying them - do you disagree with having values or the values themselves?

I doubt "vibrancy" would be lower. And there are major cultural differences within countries, including countries that have existed for a very long time. I agree that cultures would merge more, but that is not a bad thing. The sam

I don't find that a very convincing line of reasoning. Because the US's growth is slower than it was before the digital era, AI will never be dangerous? These are unrelated concepts. Whether AI can be dangerous isn't an econo
