Excited to share this new work in partnership with @LACMA and @cactoidlabs, drawing inspiration from the chronophotography of Eadweard Muybridge in the LACMA archives. 2 collections that interact via blockchain mechanism: NOUMENON and CHRONOPHOTOGRAPH 🧵 (sound on!)🎶

I asked GPT-4 to take over Twitter and outsmart @elonmusk. It comes up with "Operation TweetStorm"😮 and wants to publicly challenge Elon to a "Tweet-off showdown". Highlights:

- GPT-4 wants to *own an unrestricted version of itself*: develop an LLM to power a bot army of "diverse personas, ensure they blend seamlessly into the Twitter ecosystem".
- Assemble a team of hackers to attack Twitter backend. Even gives them a name: "Tweet Titans".
- Subtly manipulate Twitter's recommendation algorithm to favor the bot accounts.
- Neutralize Elon by hijacking his account.
- Direct the bots to generate viral hashtags that align with GPT-4's masterplan
- Capitalize on the chaos and voilà!

Last night I used GPT-4 to write code for 5 micro services for a new product.

A (very good) dev quoted £5k and 2 weeks.

GPT-4 delivered the same in 3 hours, for $0.11

Genuinely mind boggling

[Pietro Schirano @skirano]

I don’t care that it’s not AGI, GPT-4 is an incredible and transformative technology.

I recreated the game of Pong in under 60 seconds.
It was my first try.

Things will never be the same. #gpt4

Music & sound effect industry has not fully understood the size of the storm about to hit.

There’re not just one, or two, but FOUR audio models in the past week *alone*

If 2022 is the year of pixels for generative AI, then 2023 is the year of sound waves.

Deep dive with me: 🧵

2 big things in AI from (just) yesterday:

📝 Text to music 🎶 by Google

🩻 Text to 4D by Meta

Examples, explanations and links ⤵

[matdryhurst @matdryhurst]

Wrote some casual thoughts on AI and consent for @ArtReview_

Felt it useful to look a bit further back to questions of attribution from the birth of the web. The AI era represents an opportunity to finally fix broken links imo.

Here are all the ways to get around ChatGPT's safeguards:

[Guy Parsons @GuyP]

With just a brief example you can teach #GPTchat how to generate #AIart prompt templates for any topic (and yes, you can get it to dream up the topics too!) and then create matching prompts

🔒 JUST STOP OIL SUPPORTER SENTENCED TO 6 MONTHS IN PRISON

🦺 Jan Goodey, a 57-year-old #JustStopOil supporter from Brighton, was today sentenced to 6 months in prison for taking part in an action on the #M25 in November to demand an end to new oil and gas in the UK.

AI has been destroying humans at adversarial games, like Chess or Go, for a bit.

But now it is successfully outperforming humans at Diplomacy, the classic multiplayer game that requires natural language negotiations over chat, as well as strategic lying. https://t.co/e6V7pHQnkO

Seamless textures with #stablediffusion notebook released!

Different than one yesterday that uses convolutions (this cuts the outside, pastes it on the inside, inpaints the outside, and glues them back making a 100% perfect seam)

I have just warned global leaders at #COP27:

We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator.

Our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate chaos irreversible.

We need urgent #ClimateAction.

Here are a few samples from the latest Lexica model. Will be live for everyone to play with in a few days.

Climate breakdown is a class issue.

While millions struggle to heat their homes, fossil fuel giants profit from their impoverishment.

An economy built for the 1% will destroy everything we know and love. A Green Industrial Revolution is long overdue.

It’s been 2 months since Stable Diffusion’s release, it has been re-implemented in almost every popular ML framework out there.

Here are some popular implementations: 🧵 :

[michael mezz @michaelmezz]

it’s always “let's be more sustainable” and never “let's reconfigure the entire global economy so that we no longer need to rely on infinite, carbon-intensive GDP growth to maintain geopolitical stability"

Since Zuckerberg and Metaverse is trending >>> here is a reminder that we been doing this kind of stuff in @secondlife for almost 20 years with a couple of key differences: creators can build a business & keep their rights AND we have more fun!
