🤖 Photo Editing Will Never Be The Same
PLUS: A Big Privacy Problem for OpenAI's Big App Reveal
What's up? You're reading Inclined AI. Garfield was onto something when he said he hates Mondays.
Here's some news you’ll love more than lasagna:
An AI tool lets you drag and click to completely reinvent photos
Questions are starting to be raised over how private the new ChatGPT app is
Whatever you do, don’t mention Winnie the Pooh to China’s chat AI
A high schooler has ChatGPT write his graduation speech; then things take a turn
A WHOLE NEW PHOTO IS A CLICK-AND-DRAG AWAY
DragGAN is a new tool that enables photo manipulation through generative AI. That sounds like every other GAN model out there, but it’s different, like crazy different.
For instance, pretend you want your favorite image generator to make a photo of a man giving a thumbs-up. The initial results are promising but different from what you pictured.
The fake person in the photo is not smiling, and his arm is by his chest. Maybe you want his thumbs up closer to the camera.
With DragGAN, you can alter the image to make all that happen with a few mouse movements. Think of this tool as Adobe Photoshop’s warp tool but jacked up on Mountain Dew and gummy bears. AI is energizing this sucker tenfold.
The demos are worth checking out to understand the possibilities better.
Image alteration isn’t a new phenomenon, but an interface that’s this intuitive is industry-changing. Unfortunately, with that promise and appeal comes dire implications we need to consider.
DeepFakes will get more sophisticated. Scams will ramp up. But the worries go deeper than that.
Graphic artists, photo editors, and photographers are facing a wave of innovation that’s staggering to consider. Sure, it’s a research paper and not an available product today.
And sure, a demo in a research paper is more straightforward to accomplish than giving people the keys to the whole thing. For all we know, the tool is a year or two away from a polished model.
But that’s just hope at the end of the day.
If you're looking to become a ChatGPT expert, we've got you covered with “Mastering ChatGPT | From Zero to Hero”.
It’s an interactive Notion Dashboard infused with incredible AI tips and tricks.
It's packed with 50 awesome chapters and 10 hours of content, all carefully curated to help you level up your skills. Plus, you'll have access to over 1000 AI Tools and Prompts, so you can dive deep into AI and become a real ChatGPT Hero.
And the best part? You get lifetime access and weekly updates, saving you over 500 hours of research.
LISTEN, CHATGPT IS STORING EVERYTHING YOU SAY TO IT, SO YEAH, THAT’S A BIG DEAL
Privacy on the internet is a pair of sweatpants you’ve held onto for over a decade. You hope it supports you when you need them, but that elastic band looks weaker by the day.
We’re trained to accept a certain amount of data collection from big tech companies. We let them track our location, monitor our web activity, and peak at our messages more often than we should.
So when those same companies, Apple, Samsung, Verizon, etc., ban ChatGPT from work devices, it’s a whistle you need to hear. They know something you don’t.
Prompt: ChatGPT tracks your personal data Style: Random
Actually, you do know this.
Did you download the new ChatGPT app from OpenAI? It turns out they warn you at the start not to share private information with their AI model.
OpenAI channels all their user data using cloud computing, and that’s a huge security risk for most companies. It’s a gray area where a nefarious actor might snag that high-value info.
Think of that shady character as the Hamburglar, except instead of McDonald’s burgers; it’s your name and address.
Pretend you’re talking to a stranger on the street when you ask ChatGPT questions. It’s not your best friend or therapist, and Big Tech blocking ChatGPT at work highlights this fact.
Don’t let this stop you from downloading the app, and remember that you can always turn off data collection settings (that won’t prevent it from going to their servers, but we have a demo if you want to see how it’s done).
