What's your take on AI generated content?

Honestly, what Adobe did with that car pic was pretty impressive. I do use Midjourney for my own business, but so many people using AI have no soul and it scares me.

There are several articles about how Amazon is now overflowing with completely AI-generated books about foraging for wild food. The books are written by "authoritative authors" that are completely fictional. That's a death waiting to happen.

Also, for my own site (hyperlocal). Both Bing and Google have AI-generated answers for the vast majority of keywords, so it definitely affects click-through rate in a big way.

Jokes aside, something I'm interested in right now is the idea of poisoning data sets. Imagine a pump and dump scheme that feeds bad information to AI tools that are then used to buy up a stock, for example.

It could be as easy as taking common questions and pumping the Internet full of various fake answers to those questions. Generative AI typically cannot tell the difference.

This avenue could easily be used by foreign governments for various purposes as well.
 
Jesus, the number of stupid, down-right dangerous examples of SGE gone rogue is way too high for this to be a live part of Google search.

Either they hired stupid fucks that don't know what they're doing or they hired smart fucks who know EXACTLY what they're doing - either possibility is totally plausible given the state of the world.

The way the titans of tech, retail and industry are slowly crumbling post-2020 is a sight to behold.

Everything just seems to be sub-par and shitty nowadays

In my experience you have to use GPT 4o or 4 to get quality results and I actually use Claude 3 Opus for writing the content and ChatGPT 4o to research, consume web content, and outline, then I run it through AI detection and, if necessary, "humanization" with BypassAI. Finally, I edit to add my own takes and "storytelling" narrative. It's good quality, comprehensive, and I can produce them faster with AI than without for sure.
 
Some of those jobs ChatGPT created:

The premise was simple: feed an AI with labeled examples of violence, hate speech, and sexual abuse, and that tool could learn to detect those forms of toxicity in the wild. That detector would be built into ChatGPT to check whether it was echoing the toxicity of its training data, and filter it out before it ever reached the user. It could also help scrub toxic text from the training datasets of future AI models.

To get those labels, OpenAI sent tens of thousands of snippets of text to an outsourcing firm in Kenya, beginning in November 2021.

An agent working nine-hour shifts could expect to take home a total of at least $1.32 per hour after tax, rising to as high as $1.44 per hour if they exceeded all their targets.

One Sama worker tasked with reading and labeling text for OpenAI told TIME he suffered from recurring visions after reading a graphic description of a man having sex with a dog in the presence of a young child.

OpenAI Announces SearchGPT

"We’re testing SearchGPT, a temporary prototype of new AI search features that give you fast and timely answers with clear and relevant sources."

--

OpenAI on Thursday announced a prototype of its search engine, called SearchGPT, which aims to give users “fast and timely answers with clear and relevant sources.”

The company said it eventually plans to integrate the tool, which is currently being tested with a small group of users, into its ChatGPT chatbot.

The rollout could have implications for Google and its dominant search engine. Since the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, Alphabet
investors have been concerned that OpenAI could take market share from Google in search by giving consumers new ways to seek information online.

With this prototype, OpenAI is testing the waters for doing just that, promising users the chance to “search in a more natural, intuitive way” and ask follow-up questions “just like you would in a conversation.”

We think there is room to make search much better than it is today,” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman wrote Thursday in a post on X.

A.I. isn't replacing anything. In fact I strongly recommend you all double check the accuracy of your A.I. content. Grok and Meta give similar inaccurate answers:

Eric Schmidt's answer to why Google is losing ground to OpenAI (and even Microsoft) during his recent Stanford interview was pretty eye-opening... I'm paraphrasing but he basically said:

Google prioritized work-life balance and let people work from home three days a week instead of grinding like a startup. And all the other companies are still grinding.

I think this matters because if you rely on a dying business to support your dying business, you're probably compounding in the wrong direction.

OpenAI and other AI companies are changing the internet and as business owners (NOT website owners), we should all be figuring out how to use these tools to maximize the cash grab while it's still possible.
 
I do want to clarify something - A.I. is good for things that are true false like coding, it's simple to figure out why a function is not working the correct way. However when you need to get creative which means there is is possibility of loose interpretation of truth or accuracy that's where you'll get into trouble.

Now - how A.I. from ChatGPT, Meta, and Grok, couldn't count how many Rs are in strawberry, raspberry, and pineapple - that's clearly a sign that we can't have these things in important decision making processes just yet.

Imagine you are on Mars and ChatGPT is running your life support systems - and it can't even count correctly.

If you aren't willing to risk A.I. for your life support - you'd better be very careful when implementing it into your workflow.
 
The trick is to use it to write about things that don't matter if they're true or not. Things that nobody really knows the answer to, or that aren't very important. Subjectivity. Or feed it the facts & info you need to see in there.

These math-related issues have been in the machine since it started. It struggles to do basic computations. Anything with numbers, it is liable to fuck up. However as you mentioned it can write scripts that complete the computations just fine. As long as you explain it clearly enough, and don't give it too much at once.

I'm still very impressed by the capabilities of ChatGPT after subscribing to Pro since Feb 2023. I would have never attempted half the shit I'm doing now if it didn't exist. The rate at which I can produce content is insane, and I was never building custom themes or Gutenburg blocks in the past.
 
I just noticed how my mom watches YouTube. She's in her sixties, is a physician, and constantly watches AI generated videos. When I tell her, she says it's not true - these are real people.

It's amazing to see how even educated, but not tech-savvy people, simply can't tell between AI and human made content. It's truly mindblowing.
 
There's currently a trend on TikTok in certain parts of the world where they parody AI videos. I'm not sure how to embed videos, but here's a link: https://imgur.com/a/Jbs2nsh

Saw this new model today, and the first thing they've suggested is something from this thread.
OpenAI is trying hard to impress CCarter.

Let it be known in the history books who helped push us into this epoch-making event. Very people on Earth will know what we did here. We've now cross the point of not return - an inflection point. Very few will understand what just happened.

All will be revealed in the coming months.

Yeah it's very bizarre what it can and can't do, even with the latest 4o version...

I've been using (trying to train?) it more and more recently, not just for business related stuff but for personal assistant type stuff, like logging workouts/diet/etc.

Huge help overall, really amazing, but I'm still doing plenty of manual checks and asking it to redo something because its way off. Like keeping track of date/time stamps for different things which its consistently off on.

"I do have access to the internet for specific types of info, my current system does not allow me to access real time data like the current time from an external source. i rely on my systems internal clock which might not always align with your local time zone"

HUH?!

And other weird stuff, some of it really, really basic math...it's like a very strange hybrid of a genius/retard all wrapped into one

That said, overall major net positive imo...really impressive how it can guess how much a food weighs and the related calories/macros etc and log that.

And, at least to me, the voice transcription function is off the charts amazing. Dragon speak must have declared bankrupty.
 
I was at work the other night and my coworker, a 60 year old non tech savvy sailboat captain, handed me a 240 page book with his name & photo on it. He said he saw it in a Facebook ad. Company is called Book By Anyone.

Fill out a questionnaire, get a full AI generated book printed under your name.

When I saw it a lot of wheels started turning in my head. Because I could build something like that... and so could many of you...
 
Over the past few weeks, there have been a couple of times when I wanted to get better at something in the video content space, so I went to see what types of classes, courses or other information was available. Every single "course" that I brought up in the first several spots in the serps, and I mean every single one like 10 out of 10, had AI descriptions, AI chapter summaries and so on. A significant number of YouTube tutorials are similarly AI voices over footage that seems like it was ripped from somewhere. I wouldn't mind this so much if it was useful, but it's generally not.

The Internet is being absolutely flooded with garbage, much worse than before, and I'm very curious to see how the various search engines and social media platforms are going to try to contend with that. We've already seen Google's disaster of an attempt, and now we're starting to see things like tons of Pinterest accounts hit with shadow bans for mass amounts of AI images. IG's attempts to automate comment moderation using AI models is leading to false positives to the point that it's frequently locking people out of their accounts for no reason, so they'll have to figure out that at some point.

There are a lot of problems that need to be solved right now, and I'm curious to see what happens.
