Boo!

What’s wild to me is how Yann LeCun doesn’t seem to see this as an issue at all. Many other leading researchers (Yoshua Bengio, Geoffrey Hinton, Frank Hutter, etc.) signed that letter on the threats of AI and LeCun just posts on Twitter and talks about how we’ll just “not build” potentially harmful AI. Really makes me lose trust in anything else he says.

The folks with access to this must be looking at some absolutely fantastic porn right now!

Oh its going to be fantastic all right.

Fantastical chimera monster porn, at least for the beginning.

This is so much better than all text-to-video models currently available. I'm looking forward to read the paper but I'm afraid they won't say much about how they did this. Even if the examples are cherry picked, this is mind blowing!

[-] BetaDoggo_@lemmy.world 14 points 8 months ago

You mean the 100 page technical report

Just get ChatGPT to summarize it. Big brain time.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 8 points 8 months ago

Full circle.

Eventually, the internet will just be AI criticizing itself to create a better version of itself...

Hang on...

Looking forward to the day I can just copy paste the Silmarillion into a program and have it spit out a 20 hour long movie.

[-] platypus_plumba@lemmy.world 18 points 8 months ago

I was thinking exactly this but with the Bible. Not because I like the Bible but because I'd love to see how AI interprets one of the most important books in human history.

But yeha, the Silmarillion is basically a Bible from another universe.

I wonder if in the 1800s people saw the first photograph and thought… “well, that’s the end of painters.” Others probably said “look! it’s so shitty it can’t even reproduce colors!!!”.

What it was the end of was talentless painters who were just copying what they saw. Painting stopped being for service and started being for art. That is where software development is going.

I have worked with hundreds of software developers in the last 20 years, half of them were copy pasters who got into software because they tricked people into thinking it was magic. In the future we will still code, just don’t bother with the thing the Prompt Engineer can do in 5 seconds.

I think a better way of saying this are people who were just doing it for a job, not because of a lot of talent or passion for painting.

But doing something just because it is a job is what a lot of people have to do to survive. Not everyone can have a profession that they love and have a passion for.

That's where the problem comes in when it comes to these generative AI.

This is still so bizarre to me. I've worked on 3D rendering engines trying to create realistic lighting and even the most advanced 3D games are pretty artificial. And now all of a sudden this stuff is just BAM super realistic. Not just that, but as a game designer you could create an entire game by writing text and some logic.

[-] ArmokGoB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 8 months ago

In my experience as a game designer, the code that LLMs spit out is pretty shit. It won't even compile half the time, and when it does, it won't do what you want without significant changes.

[-] DSTGU@sopuli.xyz 18 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

The correct usage of LLMs in coding imo is for a single use case at a time, building up to what you need from scratch. It requires skill both in talking to AI for it to give you what you want, knowing how to build up to it, reading the code it spits out so that you know when it goes south and the skill of actually knowing how to build the bigger picture software from little pieces but if you are an intermediate dev who is stuck on something it is a great help.

That or for rubber ducky debugging, it s also great in that

Besides the few glitched ones I wouldn't be able to tell they were generated. I didn't expect it this quick.

At least we can remake the last three star wars movies with a decent story line.

[-] tiredofsametab@kbin.run 16 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

If you read Japanese, it's really obvious the Tokyo one is AI; the signage largely makes no sense, has incorrect characters, has weird mixing of characters, etc.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 9 points 8 months ago

Someone wrote a decent story line for those??

[-] davidgro@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

Back to ChatGPT for that.

Would be good if openai could focus on things that are useful to humanity rather than trying to just do what we can do already, but with less jobs.

[-] maniacal_gaff@lemmy.world 26 points 8 months ago

We already knew how to farm before John Deere; should we have focused away from agricultural industrialization in order to preserve jobs?

[-] echo64@lemmy.world 27 points 8 months ago

looks at the immense harm that agricultural industrialization has had on the climate, the environment and society

Apparently yes.

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee 11 points 8 months ago

Working less is a great ideal for humanity.

Americans have this thing that their job defines them but we worked less than we did before, let's keep going.

[-] lorty@lemmy.ml 8 points 8 months ago

Except the gains technology and automation bring are rarely evenly distributed in society. Just compare how productive a worker is today and how much we make compared to 50 years ago.

If this goes well, future video compression might take a massive leap. Imagine downloading 2 hours movies with just 20kb file size because it just a bunch of prompts under the hood.

[-] draxil@lemmy.world 51 points 8 months ago

This would be the most GPU intensive compression algorithm of all time :)

[-] lea@feddit.de 18 points 8 months ago

And the largest ever decoder since it'll need the whole model to work. I'm not particularly knowledgeable on AI but I'll assume this will occupy hundreds of gigabytes, correct me if I'm wrong there. In comparison, libdav1d, an av1 decoder, weighs less than 2 MB.

[-] r00ty@kbin.life 10 points 8 months ago

If you randomize the seed it'll be a different render of the movie every time.

Imagine VR giving an AI generated world. It would be a Ready Player One in irl.

[-] Toribor@corndog.social 10 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

The compute power it would take to do that in realtime at the framerates required for VR to be comfortable for two separate perspectives would be absolutely beyond insane. But at the rate hardware improves and the breakneck speed these AI models are developing maybe it's not as far off as I think.
