Generative AI
Use OpenAI with Google Spreadsheets
This article explains how you can integrate OpenAI GPT-3 with Google Spreadsheets. This allows you to complete spreadsheet tasks with the use of AI. Tip: Make sure to subscribe to above Gist since all future revisions with improvements will be made to this file. Then you can refer to this file later and update your functions. Note: When there are revisions to functions in the Gist file we discussed above, this is the same place you need to update the new revised code as well.
Achieving reliable generative AI
Check out all the on-demand sessions from the Intelligent Security Summit here. The term "generative AI" has been all the buzz recently. Generative AI comes in several flavors, but common to all of them is the idea that the computer can automatically generate a lot of clever, useful content based on relatively little input from the user. The initial recent excitement has been fueled by visual generative AI systems, such as DALL·E 2 and Stable Diffusion, in which the machine generates novel images based on brief textual descriptions. In a few seconds, you get a never-before-seen image of this well-read, well-traveled donkey.
Why AI and creativity are not at war
Check out all the on-demand sessions from the Intelligent Security Summit here. There is a great deal of understandable concern right now in creative fields about the impact recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) will have on jobs and on creativity in general. After using Midjourney to generate a cover image for a story about Alex Jones in The Atlantic, Charlie Warzel apologized to the art community and vowed never to use AI generation tools again. In his apology, Warzel said that creating the image was so easy and the result so good that he had failed to appropriately think through the ramifications. While noble, the sentiment of the apology only proves the concern.
Top AI startup news of the week: AI21 Labs, Mad Street Den, aiOla, and more
Check out all the on-demand sessions from the Intelligent Security Summit here. Announcements around generative AI-powered writing assistance show no signs of slowing this week, while a few sizable funding rounds fill out the top AI startup news. AI21 Labs launched Wordtune Spices this week, an add-on to its popular Wordtune editor platform, which offers a challenge to rival OpenAI's ChatGPT by providing users with links back to web-based sources -- something ChatGPT does not do. Spices is also meant to work alongside a writer to assist in the writing process. For example, it can generate a range of text options to add to and enhance sentences, or suggest statistics to strengthen an argument or sharpen a detail.
Scenario lands $6M for its AI platform that generates game art assets • TechCrunch
Depending on who you ask, generative AI is either massively overhyped or undervalued. Defined as algorithm-driven tech that creates text, art and other forms of media given a prompt, it's captured the attention of major VC backers who've piled hundreds of millions of dollars into firms like Jasper and Stability AI. But generative AI has yet to generate (no pun intended) correspondingly high returns, casting doubt on its near-term profit-making potential. Emmanuel de Maistre and Hervé Nivon think the problem is the application of the tech rather than the tech itself. While startups such as Stability AI aim to tackle a broad number of use cases with their generative AI, de Maistre and Nivon advocate for a narrower, slightly more focused approach.
How To Run Stable Diffusion. Online services or local setup
Stable Diffusion is an AI model that can generate images from text prompts. The tool is similar to MidJourney or DALL-E 2. You can access the Stable Diffusion model online or deploy it on your local machine. In this article, we will review both approaches as well as share some practical tools. DreamStudio is an online tool created by Stability AI, the team responsible for Stable Diffusion. It provides access to the latest version of Stable Diffusion models (for example, below, you can see that I generated the image using Stable Diffusion ver 2.1–768).
methexis-inc/img2prompt – Run with an API on Replicate
Provides approximate text prompts that can be used with stable diffusion to re-create similar looking versions of the image/painting. Try it by copying the text prompts to stable diffusion! A slightly adapted version of the CLIP Interrogator notebook by @pharmapsychotic. If this notebook is helpful to you please consider buying @pharmapsychotic a coffee via ko-fi or following @AIMindFlow and @pharmapsychotic on twitter for more cool Ai stuff. The CLIP Interrogator uses the OpenAI CLIP models to test a given image against a variety of artists, mediums, and styles to study how the different models see the content of the image.
GPT Emerges as Key AI Tech for Security Vendors
While there are some concerns about how generative AI chatbots such as ChatGPT can be used maliciously -- to craft phishing campaigns or write malware -- several companies are harnessing the power of conversational AI technology to enhance their product capabilities, including for security. ChatGPT, a large language model (LLM) developed by OpenAI, uses GPT 3 LLM and relies on large test data sets culled from multiple sources. ChatGPT, which can understand human language, provides detailed answers to simple questions and can handle complex tasks such as creating documents and writing code in response to user queries. It's an example of how conversational AI can be used to organize large volumes of information and enhance user experience and communications. For instance, a conversational AI tool -- whether that's ChatGPT or something else -- could serve as the back end of an information concierge that automates the use of threat intelligence in enterprise support, according to IT research and advisory firm Into-Tech Research.
What exactly is ChatGPT? - CBS Minnesota
MINNEAPOLIS – Since its public launch in November, ChatGPT has taken the world by storm. The free artificial intelligence chatbot has attracted the attention of giant companies like Microsoft, who will reportedly cut a potential $10 billion deal with the company who owns ChatGPT, OpenAI. "What's unique about this is that it presents information in a way that a human would," says Gene Munster, a managing partner for Loup Ventures, a technology research and investment firm. "It essentially has the ability to think." Artificial intelligence research has been happening for decades, but only recently has it gotten good enough that OpenAI released its ChatGPT chatbot to the public via an easy-to-use website.
