I've just found out that several of the anomalous GPT tokens ("TheNitromeFan", " SolidGoldMagikarp", " davidjl", " Smartstocks", " RandomRedditorWithNo", ) are handles of people who are (competitively? collaboratively?) counting to infinity on a Reddit forum. I kid you not.

Did a melancholy solo art retreat in Royal Leamington Spa once for a week. Was great, and got so many paintings painted.

I am very serious about a series of weekend writing retreats where I go to weird, melancholy towns, stay in a premier inn out of season, have massive breakfasts then spend the morning writing and the afternoon lording it in charity shops and local museums

Dreamt that ‘VidGPT’ could do next-frame-of-video prediction when prompted with a short starter clip.

But when you uploaded live video of the present moment at a slow enough frame rate, you could use it to see the future, and then everyone went insane. 🔮

@mr_shaman_phd Oh yeah definitely not quick either, depending on how high your standards are (this is excellent, better looking than anything I've encountered playing around with Midjourney or Stable Diffusion). But more amenable to being done while all your stuff is in suitcases 😉

[lotsoftinyrobots @_tinyrobots]

@mr_shaman_phd (but if I'd given it a bit more forethought, something like text-to-image could have been manageable!)

[lotsoftinyrobots @_tinyrobots]

@mr_shaman_phd Nice idea! For the first time in 4(?) years I'm not doing anything for it, cos I have to move hemispheres halfway through the month.

@theandreboso the best thing i ever did was spend a week muting every single threadboi and audience builder bro i saw. eventually they just disappeared from my timeline

twitter can still be incredibly delightful. you just gotta train it a bit

Are there any energy estimates for 1 image generated via @midjourney / Dall-E etc?

[samim @samim]

A dirty secret of "AI Art" is that for every generated image significant energy was used, as GPUs are electricity hungry. If we imagine a relationship between "Electrical energy used to create an art piece" & "Value of an art piece", the trend over the past 100y is wild...

in the future you'll have to become insane in your own unique way to get out of the training distribution of the mind readers
