OpenAI's flagship natural language processing (NLP) programme, GPT-3, has been available for two years now. Poems, essays, song lyrics, and even comprehensive manifestos could be generated by the AI language tool with just the barest of cues, and its readers were astounded by the quality of the writing produced. OpenAI's GPT-3 is a "foundation model" that was trained using what amounts to the whole of the internet (Wikipedia, Reddit, The New York Times, etc.). In order to determine the most likely responses to each given challenge, it utilises this massive information. Due to the massive scope of this study, only a select few of these basic models exist.

Shutterstock is eager to embrace AI-generated art. As The Verge reports, the photo provider has widened its deal with OpenAI to begin selling stock images built using the DALL-E 2 AI generator. The approach will offer "direct access" to DALL-E through the Shutterstock website, and compensate creators whose pictures played a role in developing the technology through a new Contributor Fund. The company also plans to pay royalties to artists when the AI uses their work. OpenAI licensed Shutterstock pictures and data to train DALL-E's text-to-image generation models in 2021.

Photo licensing service Shutterstock will begin selling images generated by artificial intelligence alongside those created by humans. The AI images will be powered exclusively by OpenAI's DALL-E 2 software. Both companies say that human creators whose work inspired the AI will be compensated, but one artist describes the move as "sewer water leak into the drinking supply". Shutterstock was one of several photo agencies that began removing AI-generated art from their archives last month. A Shutterstock spokesperson told New Scientist that the company would continue to ban people generally from uploading AI-generated art to its platform, but that its collaboration with OpenAI was an attempt to embrace new technology in an ethical way.

In recent months there has been talk about how artificial intelligence can create images from textual prompts. Therefore, when one associates the words artificial intelligence and art, one immediately thinks of DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, and other algorithms. In this article, instead, I want to discuss why artworks are often less safe than we think, and how artificial intelligence can help preserve them. "Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction." It is a mistake to think that cultural heritage is safe. Many of humanity's most valuable works are also among the most fragile. Throughout history, only a fraction of works of art has managed to survive over time. For example, during wars, cultural heritage is often damaged.

Machine intelligence is increasingly being linked to claims about sentience, language processing, and an ability to comprehend and transform natural language into a range of stimuli. We systematically analyze the ability of DALL-E 2 to capture 8 grammatical phenomena pertaining to compositionality that are widely discussed in linguistics and pervasive in human language: binding principles and coreference, passives, word order, coordination, comparatives, negation, ellipsis, and structural ambiguity. Whereas young children routinely master these phenomena, learning systematic mappings between syntax and semantics, DALL-E 2 is unable to reliably infer meanings that are consistent with the syntax. These results challenge recent claims concerning the capacity of such systems to understand of human language. We make available the full set of test materials as a benchmark for future testing.

Join us November 12–13 for a virtual hackathon to explore how our current AI models can accelerate solutions to climate change. Learn from climate experts about the most pressing challenges, join a team through our Discord community, and push the boundaries of our language models to help address this global issue. Ambitious developers, designers, entrepreneurs and students are encouraged to apply. Please get in touch at community@openai.com if you are a startup or nonprofit working on challenging problems like climate change.

In brief Stability AI and Jasper – two startups that make AI software that auto-generates images, text, and other stuff – have each reached so-called unicorn status (valued at over $1 billion) after bagging $101 million and $125 million in funding, respectively. Stability AI, best known for open sourcing the code for its popular text-to-image Stable Diffusion model, threw a glitzy party in San Francisco this week to coincide with announcing its funding. Emad Mostaque, the company's founder, took to the stage announcing plans to build and release more AI tools capable of handling text, audio, and video. Stability's latest funding round was led by Coatue, Lightspeed Venture Partners, and O'Shaughnessy Ventures LLC. A day later Jasper, a startup that uses OpenAI's GPT-3 to output text and images, also announced a successful Series A round.

Over the last decade, Artificial intelligence (AI) has become embedded in every aspect of our society and lives.

Today, DALL-E is introducing Outpainting -- a new feature that helps users extend their creativity by continuing an image beyond its original borders. With Outpainting, users can generate large-scale images in any aspect ratio while maintaining the context of the original image. This capability is made possible by DALL-E's Edit feature, which enables changes within a generated or uploaded image. So whether you want to add visual elements in the same style or take a story in new directions, DALL-E makes it easy! Outpainting is a powerful tool that can be used for a variety of purposes.

Having the chance to try DALL-E 2, the new AI system from OpenAI that can create realistic images from natural language, was pretty extraordinary. There's no question the system is still in its infancy, but it's clear the technology is moving quickly and we're already starting to see improved text-to-image models. Google Brain's Imagen, which can generate photorealistic images of a scene given a textual description and Meta's Make-A–Scene, which allows users to draw a freeform digital sketch to accompany a text prompt, are both promising examples. There are a number of ways small and midsize businesses can take advantage of text-to-image technology today. On average, it's recommended that small businesses spend 7–8% of their gross revenue on marketing.
