Well, that’s scary. Now we can have mind reading robots.
I thought of 1984, but yeah
I thought of people with locked-in syndrome.
If you design your testing set well enough and then don’t care about the accuracy of the output, then it’s not hard to get that kind of accuracy even without a brain scanner.
Idk what metric they’re using for “accuracy” but those images look sort of vaguely like the original at best
this season on Black Mirror, we re-write the first episode of Torchwood (the one where they briefly reanimate dead people to ask them how they died)
“You are detained, you have the right to remain silent, since everything you think can be used against you”
It’s not that impressive, they’re just generating ChatGPT prompts then feeding those into Stable Diffusion. It’s like peak AI grifting.
They’re hiding it behind academic language, but when you actually know how the underlying tech works, that’s what they’re doing.
