I think the reaction to this protest is definitely a very bad look, but that it's too early to say how that partnership panned out. Still hopeful!
I think it's pretty reasonable that many users might perceive this as a betrayal of an implicit social contract. People posting things ten years ago, or even a year ago, shouldn't have had to make projections about…
Yeah, that's what I'm basically thinking: for scientists who already like Python because it's readable and mostly matches the mental model of what they care about, being able to catalyze the switch to a different,…
I'm quite hopeful that language models for code might actually lead to more people getting comfortable with multiple languages and especially some kind of hopping back and forth. I think the prospect of starting off…
I think it's related to Reddit users who posted (very frequently!) on a counting focused subreddit (people literally post "1", "2" , "3" in sequence so usernames appear 50k+ times). Some screenshots and links in this…
Basically agree -- feels off-putting, but not technically a wrong detail to add. An additional reason it rubs me the wrong way, however, is that I believe open-source software code is especially critical to ChatGPT…
IMO - this kind of tool cuts across a debate that currently involves a lot of people yelling past each other. If you're an artist, of course you can make changes to your process or your content that modify how it's…
It's an open challenge, this preprint proposes a solution for robust data valuation. https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.15466 However, I'm not aware of anyone actively trying to adapt these techniques for large generative AI…
Yes, this doesn't use attribution techniques like influence functions or Shapley values that are popular in machine learning research, but I am pretty convinced that even a nearest neighbors search is better than the…
Appreciate the distinction in the above comment that they are two distinct questions, but also agree the two questions are very connected. I should've been more specific: I was thinking mainly of the artists v. stable…
This is a great point. Not a lawyer, but as I understand the most likely way this question will be answered (for practical purposes in the US) is via the ongoing lawsuits against GitHub Copilot and Stable Diffusion and…
Yeah, that's a fair critique, I think the short answer is depends who you ask. See this FAQ here: https://www.licenses.ai/faq-2 Specifically: Q: "Are OpenRAILs considered open source licenses according to the Open…
Thanks! Looks like a bunch of changes were made to page structure and CSS (in a way that makes scraping a bit more inconvenient). Filed an issue for myself, but looks like the other suggestions in this thread may be…
Super cool idea, thanks for building and sharing! One possible suggestion for future iteration: I think it's a bit of a shame that everyone's been sharing ChatGPT outputs almost exclusively through screenshots. I threw…
Also, based on all the public info about InstructGPT (the closest ChatGPT "family member"), all of StackExchange is definitely in the training via OpenAI's "filtered Common Crawl", if it isn't also included as a special…
There's a big concern in the long run: if ChatGPT seriously reduces the number of people who visit StackExchange domains, there will be no dataset no for GPT 4 / ChatGPT 2. E.g. what if a brand new programming language…
Also curious... I spent a while trying to get system to tell me directly, but no dice: https://twitter.com/nickmvincent/status/1598478685019189248?... It gives a generic answer that it's some proprietary combinations of…
Yeah, I think this is spot on. The version of WMF Enterprise being described here is formalizing / codifying an informal relationship that already existed (Google using Wikipedia content all over the place, and making…
In practice, I believe the reason is historical: that's how Wikipedia started and it hasn't changed. But there's pretty compelling evidence that it provides Wikipedia some unique benefits relative to an account-locked…
Crazy impressive! A question about the training data: anyone familiar with this line of work know what social media platforms the "conversation" data component of the training set came from? There's a datasheet that…
Yeah, that's fair! My view is not that everybody should use Rally, or even Firefox. Rather, it's that even though there's going to be massive filtering going on with regards to who will even contribute data to Rally,…
I understand there seems to be a lot of pent-up frustration in these comments, some of it related to this specific initiative and some not. I'd like to highlight a few reasons why this could be exciting and, indeed…
Definitely a challenge for many mechanism design approaches to intervening in the world. As I understand, the only really solution is to experiment in the real world, see what holds and see what doesn't, and tweak…
Worth emphasizing that, as the article states, there's a lot of ongoing experimentation with quadratic voting. Wikipedia has a good overview (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_voting#Applications), but users…
The core argument for x^2 is basically just that it's the only function with linear derivative, so for rational voters who calculate marginal benefit of additional votes purchased at cost x^2 (in terms of likelihood of…
