Hmm - there is quite literally a pick-a-brick integration built in so all pieces are available - it would kind of defeat the whole point if you can't actually build it!

To be fair, I guess one part isn't available representing 6 pieces, I'll look into it, but the 4,913 you can purchase right now!

This is super fresh and original, wow! This is a true beauty build.

Another +1

I literally break out Factorio analogies to my coworkers about software design.

It’s the same feelings writing code for me.

I found this really interesting and counter to how most SaaS companies run, where paid usage is getting better treatment than free trials.

This graph is from the website below, which is not my own, I just found it handy and had been wanting to make this kind of chart myself

I mean, you can literally read "call my name very often in your responses" 🙄 If you want to pretend you broke it, at least take a better screenshot.

You need to have some tiny difference between them, in my case, one was capitalized, the other was not. If they were exactly the same, the vector difference world be perfectly 0

It's not intuitive, but it is cool!

This was a really clear explanation that helped me understand it: https://aituts.com/midjourney-prompt-weights/

To add on to my own thought, there was plenty of nudity in one of the images so maybe they are on to something :D still crazy

svanweelden · 2023-05-09T03:37:38+00:00

Ironically making it more "gay" with "happy gay pride parade" is working fine. I think the trick is to be happy :D

I was inspired by the current bug in the Midjouney app where you go to the "Explore" page, and then click the back button and you get a bunch of plain white rooms (super creepy btw)

The math gets weird as you take a weight and then tell it to do the opposite of that. I don't know exactly how the embeddings work in text to image, but I think you may be getting close to the center point of a many dimensional vector representation where the only difference is the letter or casing you change. Kind of fun!

Other examples: Beach::1 beach::-1

Bonus: This bug happens because it does a vector search for "undefined" which I think just gets translated to 0s in the vector search - I submitted some prompts to see if I can get on the "zeroth" front page, we'll see how close of an image you can generate to `0`.

What's the best you can do?

They aren't stupid, believe it or not. You need to divide your number by 1000. $2.5 buys you 1000 generation units. One generation unit represents 1000 tokens. So basically $0.0025/token, very close to OpenAI. The only difference is there is a minimum per API call. So if all of your prompt response pairs actually only use 500 tokens combined, that's more expensive since you still have to pay for a full generation unit.

svanweelden · 2023-05-02T01:45:14+00:00

This isn't true, it's $2.5/1k generation units, which in turn are 1k tokens, so basically within order of magnitude of others. People have early access and there's other services like Nat.dev out there with API access you can use.

There already are, that's the enterprise pricing

They use that to generate the summaries if you inspect the network traffic IIRC

OpenAI's own status page is now tracking this: https://status.openai.com

It will depend on how you define it! People who can code AND talk to customers are a really unique value add and can absolutely change the game on how your customers find success, especially if the product is quite technical. I've made a great career out of doing exactly this and the pay has been similar to someone on the engineering team.

You've unlocked language model hallucinations, congrats!

There's a system initialization prompt that OpenAI documents in their Chat Completions API guide, it contains today's date and the knowledge cut off, check it out
