These "I forced a bot to watch X" posts are almost certainly 100% human-written with no bot involved. Here's how you can tell. 1/12

First of all, neural nets learn by example. If you show it 1,000 hours of video (assuming 120,000 unique 30-sec Olive Garden commercials exist), you’ll get video out, not a script with stage directions. 2/12
Notice that this script has the same main characters and scenario the entire way through. An actual neural net’s story will tend to meander dreamlike because it forgets what it was doing. 3/12
Here’s a recipe written by an actual neural net that examined 30,000 recipes. It gets the overall structure okay, but by the time it reaches the directions it has forgotten the ingredients list. aiweirdness.com/post/159022733… 4/12
Neural nets also have trouble contructing complex sentences, unless its data contains lots of examples of that particular type. 5/12
It’s not *impossible* to train a neural net that can keep track of characters in a story, and write generally good grammar. But it would be clunkier than this, and you’d get major kudos for managing it at all. 7/12
Also not to be confused with @botnikstudios who train predictive keyboards, which a human uses to write scripts. That’s how they get complete sentences and coherent plots like this one. 8/12

They’ve published their keyboards; anyone can use them or train their own. For scripts they usually have separate keyboards for dialog and stage directions, and a human decides when to switch between them. botnik.org/apps/ 9/12
The “I forced a bot” script isn’t even a predictive keyboard. Pretty sure “nachos” didn’t appear in its “training data”. 10/12
Even when I publish lists of neural net-generated words, there’s human involvement: I’m sorting through the output to pick the most interesting names. aiweirdness.com/post/166814009… 11/12
I wish people wouldn’t present these fakes as bot-written. Actual AI-written text just isn’t that coherent. 12/12
But the bit about "unlimited stick" is pretty darn funny. 13/12.

Way easier than I thought - and it’s 100% pure bittersweet, no coatings. When you catch the light at the right angle, it’s mesmerizing.
These are the instructions I used, as recommended by @GretchenAMcC .
They are basically: 1. Temper chocolate the normal way 2. Pour it on diffraction grating film.
It was my first time tempering chocolate and it worked!
I was astonished to discover that the structure of tempered chocolate is so fine that it can mold to the microscale ridges of a diffraction grating. It’s iridescent because of the ridges, like a CD. Even a shard is astonishing. All 100% chocolate.
Since Delphi is predicting how humans would judge an ethical scenario, it's probably relying on clues of phrasing to figure out what answer the question-asker was expecting.
If you had to specify that you didn't apologize, maybe someone expected you to.
Two studies looked at a combined 647 covid-predicting AIs and found that NONE were suitable for clinical use (despite some being probably already in clinical use).
"Many unwittingly used a data set that contained chest scans of children who did not have covid as their examples of what non-covid cases looked like. But as a result, the AIs learned to identify kids, not covid."
"Because patients scanned while lying down were more likely to be seriously ill, the AI learned wrongly to predict serious covid risk from a person’s position."
Here's CLIP+VQGAN prompted with the first sentence of the book description of @xasymptote's The Fallen:
"The laws of physics acting on the planet of Jai have been forever upended; its surface completely altered, and its inhabitants permanently changed, causing chaos."
@xasymptote Alternate interpretation, this time with a few modifiers (notably, "dramatic", "matte painting", "vines", and "tentacles")
