I used to spend days rotoscoping people in videos. Generative infill for background painting and automatic rotoscoping have saved probably a year of my life at this point. Image generation relies on CLIP, which needs a language model for conditioning.

I might have felt sympathy, but I'm too busy caring for people that he himself hurt. They deserve my attention more.

You don't run over a crowd of people, crash your car, and then get to lament that there are people in front of you at the emergency room.

We are kindred spirits. Every so often I reflect on the fact that JS/TS are the most frequently used languages in the world and I feel a bit sad.

Surprisingly, ChatGPT is the mortal enemy of a lot of machine learning researchers. It gives people a bad impression about what the field is, poisons future training data, and gives AI researchers who make truly remarkable and useful things a bad reputation because everyone "hates AI" when they really hate the stupid VC backed circlejerk that becomes inevitable in a society like this.
