Artificial intelligence still has some way to go

idk in multiple choice that’s how people do it, too

was talking with friends over the weekend, including one who is defending a PhD in machine learning next week, and we were going over the fact that rote memorization still beats non-rigorous testing and is practical in some situations.

first convo: leetcode interviews and the fact people just memorize the algorithms and the ability to figure out which one fits. the one friend had a coworker who was relatively useless but used to work at google and aced interviews

second: visiting a local chess club after playing on lag∞n’s fave site! it turns out all chess nerds are still 90% focused on recognizing openings and just playing the book

I get it, life is basically like the Jurassic Park scene where the kid goes “I know this, it’s unix!”

lol cmon folks

To benchmark GPT-4’s coding ability, OpenAI evaluated it on problems from Codeforces, a website that hosts coding competitions. Surprisingly, Horace He pointed out that GPT-4 solved 10/10 pre-2021 problems and 0/10 recent problems in the easy category. The training data cutoff for GPT-4 is September 2021. This strongly suggests that the model is able to memorize solutions from its training set — or at least partly memorize them, enough that it can fill in what it can’t recall.

As further evidence for this hypothesis, we tested it on Codeforces problems from different times in 2021. We found that it could regularly solve problems in the easy category before September 5, but none of the problems after September 12.

cant imagine getting into memorizing openings or other chess things unless youre already really quite good like in the top 5% of players its just not fun or rewarding, i saw an interview with magnus carlson a while ago where he was being quizzed on some shit like "50 end game principles every player should know" and he didnt know a bunch of them lol, of course when they were explained to him he was like oh yeah thats obvious

in fact magnus just gave up his world chess champ title because he hates doing rote prep work lol

I was just using chatGPT for a work thing and it came to me - this is really just a spiffed-up version of writing Access queries, 23 years later - ask the right question and get the right answer, GIGO

no diggity - it's got to be the shoes!

its just like us

Great scoop from @mags_h11... Google's hot new Bard AI will gladly churn out confident-sounding defenses of conspiracy theories -- including fake citations of the New York Times and Washington Post to back them uphttps://t.co/XGfYSdFB9B

this is killing me

same

I'm at work and I just started cracking up so hard

More deep fakery

And just like that. The music industry is forever changed.

I recorded a verse, and had a trained AI model of Kanye replace my vocals.

The results will blow your mind. Utterly incredible. pic.twitter.com/wY1pn9RGWx

lol sounds like shit

yeah it sorta sounds like Kanye but c'mon it's obvious that's AI. though I guess pitch correction does sometimes make you sound like that

even assuming this gets smoothed out idk if this is gonna be a huge deal or just some novelty. for one the legal implications of this could be pretty wild - if I can design a vocal filter that makes me sound like Elvis, could I be sued for using it? I would assume yes, I think similar cases have been won where an artist is clearly imitating something else. but it seems like one of those situations where the law won't be able to keep up with the ways people are gonna use this. like I could make something to write new Beatles songs and then change 'em a little and claim the best ones as my own. that said I'm wondering how much people would actually want to listen to that, I personally don't think the future of the music industry is Hatsune Miku shit

ai vox going to be the new auto-tune aesthetic

new taylor swift vocals trained on jfk

haa

anyway i fuckin hate these people who think that because you mimic kanyes voice you can make a kanye song and that in the future artists are going to outsource their work to computers, kayne worked hard to make kanye songs and a lot of them arent even very good but a computer is just going to replace him, its low thinking truly worthless

the true killer app would be an app that kills people like this

I think it's all based on a fundamental misunderstanding of what music is or why people listen to it

yeah same thing with the people looking at an ai picture of a sexy elf being all artists are obsolete now

and of course a lot of the people saying that are trying to make money off of ai

Feel like copyright is going to come down hard on this, fuck AI people imo

yeah you cant just imitate someones voice its established, which is prob why the guy says that the artists themselves are going to use it, tho in that case not sure why they wouldnt just do it themselves

some people listen to music as ambient background noise. i can imagine ai replacing the artists who make "lo fi beats to chill and study to."

yeah there's so much shit on chill ambient sleep type playlists that is just holding down synth pads forever with some notes delicately plunked on a warbly piano vst, so generic it might as well be AI

ai will disrupt internet cafe music

prob be like four hours of keyboard preset music then thirty seconds of unexplainable death metal

please remake track without death metal
computer: ok here you go
it has more death metal now
computer: ok here it is with more death metal

for awhile now whenever i see the phrase “deep fakes” my mind silently appends “by Jack Handey”

I stepped away from my computer for a moment. When I returned, it was building something. I did not ask it to do this. We're not ready for what's coming pic.twitter.com/LZJJvs6nqt

haha me too

haha!

i can imagine ai replacing the artists who make "lo fi beats to chill and study to."

Wait, actual factual question, are the songs on those playlists not already algorithmically generated?

Not at all! At least not until a few months lol

AI seems extremely well-suited to making lo-fi chill study beats

chill lofi beats to make chill lofi beats to

yea I think it could probably do that and maybe some commercial stuff as well. like right now there's a whole industry called "library music" where the point is to make music that sounds like say Jean-Michel Jarre but not enough that you get sued. all that 'royalty-free' music used for advertisements and corporate stuff is probably going this way

unpopular (maybe actually popular?) opinion but I wouldn't mind if Kanye were replaced by an AI. I guess that includes the music.

Digistore EU have promoted an AI to their website's chat function. It's not working particuarly well. Follow my attempts to get a tracking number that result in a milkshake recipe and a rude poem. (1/2) pic.twitter.com/fr67JMB1om

Friend was on a training course this week and told me that the guy presenting was constantly using ChatGPT to creative test questions and other stuff apparently.

Does anybody remember "Jarvis"?

https://www.gadgets360.com/apps/features/mark-zuckerbergs-jarvis-ai-what-it-is-what-it-can-do-and-more-1640658

"Why did Mark Zuckerberg build Jarvis?

Building Jarvis, and running 365 miles, were Zuckerberg’s personal challenge for 2016; his annual challenges in the past have been to learn Mandarin, read two books a month, and to meet a new person every day."

some of these annual challenges are easier than others... two books a month, imagine!

Yeah but maybe they were in Mandarin

weird building jarvis and running 365 miles were my personal challenges for 2016 too

he cant get enough of the stuff

are we sure that's AI

Now Bing is *also* claiming Turley was accused of sexually harassing a student on a class trip in 2018. It cites as a source for this claim Turley's own USA Today op-ed about the false claim by ChatGPT, along with several other aggregations of his op-ed. pic.twitter.com/p7NA45kHyD
