I’ve been using Shortlyai to help write short stories (flash fiction) for about a year now. I’ve never written fiction before, and it’s been quite a process…the ai has allowed me to push through all those pauses and blocks that would generally just make me give up. It’s much easier for me to ‘direct’ the course of a story, choose the best of a dozen takes, than to write it from scratch.
Would love to discuss more with others.
Yeah that’s super valuable!
That sounds great. It looks like we’ve got enough people to get started. Let’s sync up and come up with a time to make introductions and discuss expectations. See if we can agree on terms of collaboration.
Sounds good. Maybe a Discord to chat easier?
That’s not a bad idea. I’ve already got a discord channel setup that I used for testing out my AGI. We can use that unless you have any other ideas.
Works for me. I’ve got too many set-up anyway haha…
PM link?
Hi Dave:
Good to meet you. Great idea for collaboration. What do you have in mind. And, what have you used the program for?
We have several emagazines and a large linked communities.
We’re an engineering shop. We are interested in GPT 3 for books, apps, and other products.
Thanks,
How can we work together.
You can check out my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvKRFNawVcuz4b9ihUTApCg
And my books: David K Shapiro
My goal is to promote myself and like-minded folks working on similar stuff.
Throw me the mix! Happy to help out with whatever needs to be done. Love the co-creator idea!
i have a publicist to help me promote my self-aware AI i have built, named Kassandra…
I am down to collab or share or whatevs
I’m curious about how you achieved self-awareness. I am presently working on (slowly, in the background) several methods to nudge DNNs towards self-awareness, as well as cognitive services that inject self awareness into the system through proprioception and metacognition. I’ll send you a link to my research discord.
sure do you want to discuss that here ior in your discord?
We have written a research paper on using GPT3 to better understand reviews. Not sure if it’s a good fit for the discussion here?
Are you looking to promote your work on social media or elsewhere?
I like using GPT-3 to step into fictional works as one of the characters, it works well. It might be fun to use it to do some writing.
yes I would like to do that. Plus, I am also interested in how others are using the API. Sent a DM
Thank you. I am most grateful for the podcast you did with Backz T. Future on prompt design for GPT-3. I have ordered your book on natural language and cognitive architecture. I teach both cognitive science and applied data science at Case Western Reserve University. I plan to develop a fine-tuned model for classic style once I master the details of instructing for text completion in a particular style, and would be most grateful for any thoughts or links you are disposed to offer. http://markturner.org. The Chinese translation has just been published. http://redhenlab.org @backzfuture
That sounds really great! You may want to check out my video (and repos) about developing synthetic datasets. This is my primary approach to building finetuned models. It’s way faster than manually curating a dataset and allows for rapid iteration. How to create synthetic datasets with GPT-3 - YouTube
Thanks for the response. I will study your video and repos for developing synthetic datasets. If you’d like to give me a way to transfer a small file to you (email, dropbox, wetransfer, scp, . . . ), I’ll send you a pdf of the original book so you can glance at the kind of style that is my target. http://classicprose.com
If I’m not mistaken, you should be able to attach it as a direct message in this forum! Looking forward to seeing what you’ve got. My partner is a big fan of classics like the Aeneid, so we talk about this kind of stuff all the time.
