If I had to guess, I'd say that a lot of supervision has gone into the software-adjacent capabilities, as that's a very promising commercial opportunity. Most of the other things I try feel emergent? Maybe? I hope this will be clearer as other systems are released. (end)

ChatGPT’s opacity regarding data sources and supervision
By
–
The fallback function of Siri, Alexa etc is to search Google or Wikipedia. When that happens, it's pretty obvious. But with ChatGPT, it's extremely murky (to me at least) — so much so that I don't even know how important the explicit supervision really is. 4

Distinguishing Emergent vs Supervised Behaviors in ChatGPT
By
–
Some of the things ChatGPT can do are emergent behaviours, picked up from the language or code modelling. Other things it can do have been specifically taught to it. Is there some speculative list somewhere about what tasks were supervised? 1

Effective Concepts for Text-to-Image Models and Latent Space Exploration
By
–
“Tardigrade” works really well on most text-to-image models. There are so many images of them. Other concepts that work well involve insects, animals, plants. Food (pizza, noodles). Historical events (WW2). Medical (X-rays). The latent space is full of exploration opportunities.

Critique of Stable Diffusion Community’s Shift Toward Complex Objectifying Prompts

ChatGPT and generative AI models reshape digital landscape
By

While Peterson doesn't link #ChatGPT and the early deepfakes of him as part of the bigger trend of #GenerativeAI (most people don't) — he is right that ChatGPT is a huge deal, and only a very early application of the superior generative models on the horizon.
