🥟 Chao-Down #186 OpenAI is exploring making its own AI chips, AI entrepreneurs are embracing house-sharing to build their startups, People find ways to bypass Bing AI’s image generator filters

Despite best attempts by OpenAI to prevent people using Dall-E to generate images featuring prominent names, leave it to the internet to find ways to bypass these responsible AI filters.

From SpongeBob SquarePants, to Mario flying a plane into the Twin Towers, prompt writers have guided Bing AI’s image generation service powered by OpenAI to produce unhinged results.

It just goes to show that we’re still a long way from having even the biggest of companies truly control what AI will generate. The question is, will they ever?
