“Rumman Chowdhury, the CEO and founder of Humane Intelligence PBC, reviewed a sample of the prompts and a summary of the project. “Structuring a monthslong, large-scale project that appears designed to systematically break those rules, via dummy accounts masquerading as children, is outside what is usually described as ‘industry standard’ evaluation,” she says.” My evaluation has gone from ‘Careless’ to ‘Fucking Evil” #aisucks https://www.wired.com/story/meta-contractors-pretending-to-be-teens...

“There&#39;s a fundamental problem with these tools beyond the capacity of any deployment strategy to solve: the tool requires expertise to validate, but its use diminishes expertise and stunts its growth. How does one become an expert? “ This gets to the heart of dilemma, without railing on its users. Worth a read. https://taggart-tech.com/reckoning/

“The practical problem for the platforms is simple. You cannot run two different algorithmic systems in one product without everyone noticing.

Used as a tool for dodging and burning complex shapes, I&#39;d say it&#39;s akin to to the masks I&#39;d cut in the days of film. Absolutely *not* interested in anything generative. For orchestrating the exposure, it&#39;s excellent. Hats off to the developers. Unlike Adobe, DT are making tools for artists, not turning...
