This system is ripe for abuse without any outside oversight. All it takes is for that organization to be controlled by a group of reactionary right wingers, and then they can ban anything they want.

Reply to Students can quote ChatGPT in essays as long as they do not pass the work off as their own, international qualification body says by Parking_Attitude_519
If I was still in school i'd just generate the essay then spend like 5-10 minutes editing it to my own words. Kids arent stupid and probably will do the same thing. Also, now that the 'CHATGPT DECTECTOR' is open source I imagine they can just plug in their essay and see if it gets flagged before submitting to a teacher.
If you want to test a kid on essay skills have them read something before class and write an essay on it IN CLASS with a pencil and paper. Otherwise you can't complain when kids cheat.

A little unrelated to the topic. But anyone else got this uneasy feeling chatGPT might become some kind of oracle for society at large? In the same way google operates now but completely binary. There is obviously a back door to this thing… so what would be stopping third party influence for generation of desired answers? Peoples opinions on a variety of topics could be nudged so easily and on the cheap.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 77%. (I'm a bot)
> The UK's electricity grid ran on 100 per cent clean power for 25 hours during December, setting a new monthly record and providing further evidence that the energy system can enable a zero-emission grid.
> The record-breaking performance during December meant there were nearly 100 hours when the grid delivered more clean power than it needed last year.
> The report acknowledged that some fossil fuel generators were required to stay running in order to provide flexibility and inertia services to grid operator National Grid ESO during the periods when demand was fully met by clean sources of power.

Haha, this is your generation’s “The internet isn’t a real source! You have to find it in a book!”
Don’t worry, teachers and professors eventually realized that they were being curmudgeonly idiots and decided that everything but Wikipedia was a fine and dandy source.
For all of the classes they have to take to get their credentials, you’d think one of them would be something along the lines of “How to stay on the right side of history”.

I really hope this tool doesn't get expanded for use against all sexually explicit images. Not to be that guy but invasions of individual privacy and freedom of speech are typically used first against people that most would have little sympathy for, like child abusers and violent criminals, before being used on everyone else. The first criminals Obama deported under his new rules were pedophiles but it wasn't long before they were deporting grandmother's because they were the receptionist for a white collar criminal. This tool in it's present form seems great but it is very powerful and could do a lot of damage in the wrong hands

Reply to comment by Quantum-traveler88 in AI Art Just Got Slapped With A Crucial And Devasting Legal Blow by Skullpt-Art
Whenever someone says "this is a fact which nobody can argue", it almost always turns out to be arguable.
The idea that "there is nothing new under the sun" is itself a tired, old idea from the Bible. It represents an ancient view that everything in life and the world is just a cycle that repeats. It leaves no room for progress or innovation.
Original creativity is an essential ingredient in art. Maybe nothing is one hundred percent original, but it's still important to talk about whether, and to what extent, an artist's work brings something original to life. If something is one hundred percent a remix of old ideas, then it's not good art.

Because getting cheap power for 25 hours doesn't fully offset the price of gas for the other 30 days in december. And when you say "uk energy companies" do you mean the wholesale suppliers who sell you the electricity (many of whom have gone bust), the generators who make the electricity, or the global multinationals who sell them the gas with which to make the electricity.
Because the only one making bank are the multinational oil companies that get to pump the gas out of the ground..
