This doesn't add any links to the model or the video in question. They are not letting it to be easy for the people to judge for themselves.<p>This is just virtue signaling and scoring points for the powers that be.<p>It is very trivially easy to download and fine-tune a large language model to virtually any dataset and generate novel content.<p>The fact that he does it openly and publicly makes him an easy target. It's always the small guys who are easy to cancel.<p>I do not understand the actual harm of this. Someone will use this bot to spam other forums or SNSs? They have their own checks and balances. People who post bad comments or troll around, will not even know about this. They will not even bother. They have enough time sitting in their mums' basements. Why use a language model? They simply won't know how.<p>It is just a demonstration. If the people with the same set of values were in the cybersec industry, they would condemn white-hat penetration testing as something unethical.<p>This just shows that this can be done.<p>Enough governments and political parties around the world take help from generative models and bot-farms to sway public opinion. If the party is in power, companies turn a blind eye.<p>Who knows how many of them use open technologies for bad things. I saw something called deepnude ai, that, for a fee, lets you generate naked bodies of women, consistent enough with her face and body to look very real.<p>These people should be arrested and condemned. Lives can be ruined with this tech. But these people don't know them and don't care.<p>Tur k3y government have made ai powered drones that kill without any human in the loop. These half-pant wearing (literally, as you will see in any ai conference) academics can't do anything to them.<p>Cancel culture is high in ai academia. Timnit Gebru got fired for legit reasons, and these "inclusion" advocates made it a race issue.<p>They just want to cancel this guy, because he has a track record of not conforming to cancel-list made by them. Like he hosted Pedro Domingos once. And people literally commented they won't watch his videos again and condemned him.<p>This is one of the follies of being a "hot field". It becomes everyone's playground to implement their agendas. Now that wokism is the Hegelian dominant ideology, everyone must conform to it.<p>If you want to debate in good faith, I am here.
