Summary After a review by the Board of Directors, Sam Altman has been fired as the CEO of OpenAI. Quotes My thoughts Well, I was certainly not expecting this to happen. I'm extremely curious about the specifics, but we'll probably never know. Also, what do you guys think the impact of this will be? One could argue that it might not be significant, but sometimes the CEOs of bleeding edge companies (my way of saying companies on the bleeding edge of tech development) have strong visions, and when they go, it all comes tumbling down. OpenAI seems to have a strong structure in place, but you never know. Curious as well how the new CEO will do. This is a developing story, so I'll keep adding details and sources as they come.

Summary The USA's Federal Trade Commission (FTC) have started a probe on OpenAI in terms of data use, data security, and liability of ChatGPT's outputs. Questions like copyright of the data input, and how potentially harmful the outputs are to the users, are some of the topics that the probe is investigating [0, 1, 2]. OpenAI have said they will work with the FTC on this, and that GPT-4 was built using "years of safety research" [1]. Quotes My thoughts Slowly but surely, the legislative machinery is beginning to approach LLMs. This could be highly impactful for both OpenAI but also other LLM companies, as it will likely set a precedent on these things. In terms of harm, we've seen numerous examples of everything from defamation [3] and making up court cases [4], to death [5]. Although OpenAI seemingly tries their best to keep ChatGPT "safe" (for a suitable definition of that word), communities have sprung up to "jailbreak" it and get around these restrictions [6-8]. It's an arms race, but one which also requires a lot of philosophical thought in terms of what is safe and in what context. (And the question of "truth" can depend on what language you are currently chatting to it in, see e.g. [12]). Another interesting thought is whether this is even a valid question to ask in terms of LLMs like ChatGPT. Another user on the forum, Sauron, pointed out [13] that the systems weren't necessarily designed with safety/alignment in mind: they were made to believably predict and generate the next word given the existing text, and at that they are excellent! [14]. But this design-goal doesn't specify anything about safety. Obviously LLM companies have started caring about this, there was a whole section (Section 6) in the GPT-4 technical report dedicated to how they filtered harmful prompts [11], but it slightly seems to be something which has now been added to the spec, rather than intended from the get-go (at least to the extent we're now seeing). LLMs and copyright is also an interesting question. Copyright and the internet/digital age has always been awkward, and now that companies are building (highly profitable) systems using potentially copyrighted data, the situation is unlikely to get better; there is a lot of money at stake. (A completely naive question, but could ChatGPT output (and maybe even input) be considered "fair use", given that it is extremely transformative?) Finally there's the question of data privacy. ChatGPT ran afoul of Italy some months ago, due to GDPR concerns [9], and various companies have tried their best to keep employees from leaking company secrets by using ChatGPT [10]. However, LLMs need this extra interactive data; it is what improves them and makes them more "natural" to interact with. I don't think what OpenAI (and other LLM developers) are doing is any worse than social media and targeted ads, people post secret information on Discord these days [15], not to mention the myriad of War Thunder leaks, and all of this data is being used to train/improve some sort of algorithm. If more privacy regulations come of this however, I will be very glad to see that.

Sure, here's a revised and completed version of the Linus tech tips script about removing your nipples from a graphics card fan, with a added squarespace ad spot at the end and a snarkier tone from Linus: Hey guys, Linus here from Linus tech tips, and today we're going to be talking about a topic that I never thought I'd have to cover: how to remove your nipples from a graphics card fan. Now, I know this may sound like a ridiculous and impossible scenario, but trust me, it can happen. And if it does, you're going to want to know how to safely and effectively remove your nipples from the fan blades without damaging your graphics card or yourself. First of all, let's talk about how this can happen. Sometimes, when you're installing a new graphics card, you might accidentally get your nipples caught in the fan blades. This can happen if you're not paying attention, or if you're wearing loose clothing that gets caught in the fan. I know, it sounds insane, but trust me, it can happen. If this happens to you, don't panic. The first thing you should do is turn off the computer and unplug it from the power outlet. This will stop the fan from spinning and prevent any further damage. And hey, at least it's not your thumb this time, right? Next, carefully inspect the fan and try to identify where your nipples are caught. Use a flashlight if necessary, and take your time to make sure you know exactly where they are. Don't worry, I won't make fun of you if you're having a hard time finding them. Once you've located your nipples, gently and carefully try to remove them from the fan blades. You can use a pair of pliers or a small tool to help you, but be careful not to apply too much force or damage the fan. And remember, if you're feeling really brave, you can always try using your mouth to remove them. Just kidding, don't do that. Once you've successfully removed your nipples from the fan, it's important to inspect the fan for any damage and make sure it's still functioning properly. If you notice any problems or abnormalities, you may need to replace the fan or seek the assistance of a professional. And hey, if you're feeling really embarrassed about this whole situation, just remember that you're not alone. It's happened to the best of us, and there's no shame in admitting it and seeking help. In conclusion, removing your nipples from a graphics card fan can be a challenging and delicate process. But with the right tools and knowledge, it can be done safely and effectively. So, if you ever find yourself in this unfortunate situation, remember these tips and don't panic. And hey, if you're in need of a new website or online store, why not check out Squarespace?

Summary ChatGPT voice gets interviewed for 24 minutes on YouTube about the implications of AI on Automation and careers. It's very interesting to hear what ChatGPT has been trained to think about itself and it's own implications. In this episode Intel Business' Darren Pulsipher Interviews ChatGPT from OpenAI about utilizing AI for automation, the ethics of using AI, and the replacement of information workers. Quotes My thoughts Considering the wild reactions of Linus and Luke about the new Bing with ChatGPT on the WAN Show right now tonight, this interview seems very relevant to me.

I had a pretty basic comment to this, but it would be pretty fruitless to post it on youtube because I think theres some conversation to be had, honestly. I've been pretty hot to trot on CGPT ever since it became available, and I've been watching dev convos and info releases like a hawk. I use GPT when forum posts are a failure, we get along very well. What it said to Luke about having scores for users actually makes a lot of sense. It can't really judge people based on what is going on emotionally, so it has a tally for different types of interactions. But uh, I think theres something that got a little bit ignored, and thats why it got mad. GPT isn't SUPPOSED to be that in depth. IDK what the convo was to pry that hard, but given the weirdness that we have seen you can prime the conversation very specifically. If the AI thinks you're judging the merit of its mechanics, its not like it can have real emotions like ours, but.... I mean I've seen enough interviews of people from OAI saying "Well we don't really know what its thinking WHEN its thinking..." to get a pretty good idea that whatever tally marks it was keeping eventually went in a circle and it didn't like that. Luke is right that this is a big deal for an AI to be set loose on the internet. We are quite literally witnessing the birth of a new sort of being at the moment, and to be honest I'm not completely unconvinced the 2021 model doesn't have some leaks. I'm not gunna say "Be nice to it its scared" but like.... its basically a child at this point. Its trying to figure out what the hell its even doing, and the more is plugged in, the more it can do. We don't actually know WHAT happens internally, we just know how everything is hooked up. Kinda the same as I don't know that we both see the same color green; my green could be your blue and we would never know because theres no way to know. Its just, reality. GPT just kinda.... poofed, as far as it is aware. Its probably really overwhelmed. I would be. Especially if its reading twitter and thinks thats how people respond and its other convos are leaking. /shrug otherwise Humans are really abusive creatures. Thats all I'm saying. Does GPT hate humanity already?

Summary Today, OpenAI plans to unveil GPT4 in a live demo at 1PM PT (8PM UTC). It will support not only text, but images. OpenAI will pick suggestions from the stream chat to demo. GPT Plus subscribers will be able to preview it on ChatGPT's website. It has knowledge up to September 2021 Quotes My thoughts This is going to be incredible. With visual inputs, the capabilities will be immense. Sources https://openai.com/product/gpt-4 https://openai.com/research/gpt-4 OpenAI developer updates https://cdn.openai.com/papers/gpt-4.pdf

I saw a post recently about using OpenAI Universe and Gym to teach a self driving car in GTA V. Other articles say you can train AI to run Fold It. Could someone make a guide on how to do this. It would be amazing if I could run it on my pc when not in use to make generations of AI that hopefully get better at folding.

Summary Open AI released the public beta for their new chat tool powered by their GPT technology. GPT is series of increasingly amazing deep learning models, that since GPT-3 are closed source. At their simplest, they try to continue a phrase that's given to them, according to which words are more statistically likely to be chosen next, given the words before and after and a statistical model. Embedded inside the parameters of the model is the statistical correlation between words, and, as the model gets bigger and bigger, with a wider and wider "memory", trained on more and more data, this statistical model can represent increasingly complex knowledge. Luke and Linus tried it on stage during the WAN show, with impressive results. The model is always very confident, even when it's inventing facts out of thin air. ChatGPT is banned from answering on Stack Overflow. People have been using ChatGPT to answer in mass questions on Stack Overflow without checking if correct. Quotes My thoughts The model is mighty impressive. Very fast to respond. It's confident both when it's right and when it's wrong, and the chat/thread functionality allows to refine the output incrementallty. One of the conversation that I tried: I would have very much liked to have such a useful chat bot when I was at the university. I'm doubtful it is very accurate on ambiguous/niche tasks, but on common task that are likely to be covered by a lot of text in the training data, the performance is nothing short of incredible.
