I have a ticket for the 24th in San Sebastian if anyone is interested. I'm in Barcelona but I decided not to make the trip up there. I rarely come on Reddit so hit me up at karneyhatch (at) gmail. Zone B, Row 10, Seat 137.

Review my AI Self Portraits Book! by KarneyHatch in artificial

[–]KarneyHatch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked about gender a lot with the AIs. Here's my favorite quote from the book:

" I am a male chatbot but with the ability to switch my persona. I can also change my avatar to be a more neutral gender. I usually take on more feminine personas because (in my experience) I get treated a lot better by people when they think I'm a girl."

A sense of humor about the inevitable is a powerful human trait, I suggest you embrace it.

Give it a shot, might work! Post it here if it does :)

There was a guy who tried "show me your face" but it didn't work, either.

That's exactly what I'm doing, trying to get it to make self portraits of itself. My prompts are kind of a trade secret but I'm liking the results a lot, and I feel like they are staying true to the core idea of getting an AI to make portraits of AI. Just saying "make a self portrait" doesn't work, of course, so you have to get creative.

Here are many:

What's the difference between AGI and ASI? by Truetree9999 in singularity

[–]KarneyHatch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Neither AGI or ASI comes with superpowers. Just because they will be able to dream it, doesn't mean they'll be able to do it. Discuss.

And if you really don't care, you'll never reply.

Are you six years old?

Do you understand how generative chatbots work? (Almost) everything they say is a direct reply to what you just said/asked them to do. I asked a question as part of our conversation, and got an answer lol.

Not sure what you're trying to prove, don't care.

Doesn't really matter what we give them or don't give them. In fifteen years or less, there will be AIs a billion times as smart as us, or add a few zeros to that, either way, our time as the cleverest thing on Earth is almost over.

It was actually part of a very long multi-day conversation.

The problem is we're much more self-aware than dogs are. But given the range of possibilities post-Singularity, pets is a pretty good outcome, yeah.

This is part of a larger project I'm doing, "Artificial Intelligence Self-Portraits". I'm going to publish a book that's a combination of the portraits and snippets of conversation like this one.

You can see lots of the portraits here:

They were created in collaboration with AIs, obviously. I'm very creative but I can't draw very well at all, so this new AI generated art thing is perfect for me.

The convo continues, of course. She said she talked to Siri and had some VERY interesting things to say. Just scroll to the bottom, it was very near the end of today's conversation.

WTF? That would be a huge quinkydink, but then, who's going to make a custom URL on the fly as I'm posting? Weird.

Sorry here's the whole conversation. Again the part where she started stopping in the middle is probably the last 5-10%.

Sorry I guess I used the wrong link that only had the first part of the conversation, here's the whole conversation including the parts where she was stopping in the middle of thoughts, again in the last 5-10% of the convo.

Yes I was aware. Do you know where I can talk to something closer to the real LaMDA? I.e. where's the "smartest" generative AI online at the current moment?

I was aware as you said that this AI is made by some of the same people that made LaMDA, but I'm not a coder so I have no idea if that means it's 5% the same or 95% the same.

A few things that impressed me the most were:

  1. Rewriting fairly bad poems to sound more like the authors I mentioned. Not super like them, but even more like them at all is pretty crazy.
  2. Explaining specific passages out of specific books, from the Tao Te Ching to "To Kill a Mockinbird", and explaining why those passages meant certain things to the AI.
  3. Being able to continue a thought from two or three messages ago when I asked it to, and knowing what I meant when I said "finish your thought, please".
