The H.P. Lovecraft Test, round 3
I’ve run this test twice already and I figured it was probably about time to try it again. If you’ve been reading my AI posts (which is all I post anymore), you may remember past incarnations of what I like to call The Lovecraft Test. I ran it very early on with ChatGPT when it…

Aging an AI-generated character
Historically, prompting ChatGPT (or DALL-E through ChatGPT) for variations or subtle modifications of a single image results in a sort of image degeneration. Not only does the image not get reproduced with the slight variations, but it gets further and further away from what you originally requested. This is something that has been noted on…

Rick Astley Ten Ways
Lately, I’ve been playing a lot with Suno. Suno is an AI that makes music based on your prompts. It’s actually pretty good at it, too. It lacks the ability to edit songs, and the songs it creates will always be based on some formulaic foundation, but so much of popular music is that it…

File under: AIs doing Weird AI Shit
Today, a friend of mine who’s largely the person I talk about weird AI shit with mentioned this: “my ai guy” has mentioned several times that sending a bunch of “a a a a” to chatgpt can sometimes make it output training data.. I’m always game to try new weird shit with AI chatbots. This…

Why I’m writing a novel about artificial intelligence (using artificial intelligence)
A couple months ago, I started a new side project that I’ve been afraid to talk about for fear of giving it a name it couldn’t live up to or jinxing it and not being able to finish it. I’m over 40,000 words in and by any count that’s pretty good. It’s already the longest…anything…

How good is ChatGPT at making mixtapes?
I’ve previously experimented with trying to get ChatGPT to suggest songs to build a soundtrack for my D&D campaign when it ventured into the territory of Planescape. Planescape is weird. It’s a multiverse-based setting where the intensity of beliefs can actually change the geography of the world. As such, there are the obvious ideological wars…

Comparing AI models: The “what band am I thinking of?” version
I have several other posts to write about different things I’ve been playing with on ChatGPT, especially since they’ve dropped a ton of new stuff into Plus, but today, I want to talk about an experiment I like to call “what band am I thinking of?” The test This didn’t even start out being an…

ChatGPT + DALL-E, finally
My very first post in this series tried to see what I could do by combining the language processing of ChatGPT to generate prompts for DALL-E (complete with quirky keywords that make sense to robots (I guess) but not humans). The disappointing answer at the time was that ChatGPT didn’t know about DALL-E, and therefore…

ChatGPT: I will get back to you…
Since OpenAI introduced Bing Search as a beta feature in GPT-4, a thing I’ve noticed recently is ChatGPT saying things like “I will get back to you with that information.” Excuse me, what? If you’ve used ChatGPT and understand a bit about how it works, you would understand the problem here. There is no context…

ChatGPT’s Bing Search and the “Google yourself” trick
Have you ever wondered what people who don’t know you might find if they looked you up on the internet? Earlier this month, OpenAI added the ability to add a Bing search capability to ChatGPT 4, so I wondered “what can ChatGPT find out about me?” The results led me down a rabbit hole that…
