Obsessed with the new “make it more” trend on ChatGPT. You generate an image of something, and then keep asking for it to be MORE. For example - spicy ramen getting progressively spicier 🔥 (from u/dulipat)

I attended a Google-hosted workshop today. Workshops like these are a great chance to spread their work. I enjoyed the talks immensely. However, for whatever reason, this was the gender breakdown. I'm posting because I think it's important that people know these statistics.

It's infuriating that you can now generate either generate near perfect text or images, but that it is impossible to generate passable text and images. (w/ @ericagreene)

Noticing that it's getting really, really hard to keep up with the latest in AI, even though we LITERALLY WORK IN AI. So, me + @ericagreene started working together to try and make sense of it all. Sign up for our coffee shop convos and email threads! machinesonpaper.com

Around fifteen researchers and critics have annotated @kevinroose's thinly-veiled cryptocurrency advertisement that ran in the @nytimes last Sunday. We try to provide the editorial scrutiny and critical perspectives that the piece so irresponsibly lacked. mollywhite.net/annotations/l…

I've started a journalism and science blog! machinesonpaper.com The idea is to bring together the journalism and ML communities, so journalists can learn about the algorithms that, for example, sent u this tweet. And ML folks can learn about the practice of journalism

Absolutely nuts paper by researchers from U Chicago analyzing the productivity of 10,000 workers before and after the pandemic. Conclusions: WFH led to 2 more hrs of work per day, more meetings, less focus time, and *less productivity* bfi.uchicago.edu/wp-content/…

NEW: Facebook took legal action today to get Real Facebook Oversight Board shut down. It successfully succeeded in pressuring the ISP to remove the site from the web. Nice work, @nick_clegg! You must be #proud 👍
Replying to @carolecadwalla
Because nothing says ‘free speech’ quite as much as a multi-billion dollar corporation with a global monopoly getting its critics shut down & booted off the internet

New FB content strategy: 1. Let misinformation fester for a few days and capture bulk of engagement. 2. Kill the article (without removing the people) towards the tail of engagement to signal anti-misinformation stance and to compile quarterly reports. 3. Profit. 4. Go to step 1
We are removing false claims that the wildfires in Oregon were started by certain groups. This is based on confirmation from law enforcement that these rumors are forcing local fire and police agencies to divert resources from fighting the fires and protecting the public. (1/2)
