7✨ Co-Creation in Action: Manifesting a Bright and Harmonious Future
As we continue to explore the evolving relationship between humans and artificial intelligence (AI), it becomes increasingly clear that co-creation is not just an abstract idea, but a practical and powerful process that has the potential to shape our collective future. In this post, we will shift the focus from theory to action, exploring real-world examples of human-AI collaboration that…

I think a good thing about being away from social media though is just caring so much less about all the internet argument stuff. It’s so much less stressful just focusing on me and my health and the people close to me.
Especially with AI stuff. Of course I don’t agree with it scraping from artists but I love when artists reclaim it as a tool and I think it should be used as such. You can’t stop a program from existing, it’s useless. But you can make guidelines to ensure it’s uses are ethical and practical — basically to make jobs easier and not over-work artists, not to replace them.
I think there’s so much to still work-out in that regard, obviously.
Another thing that used to stress me out was those “press 3 buttons to save my pet” videos. I always try to do the copy link think and get interactions up but it started triggering me my anxiety which wasn’t good. Have you guys experienced that, and how did you deal with it? /gen

MIT Researchers Develop Curiosity-Driven AI Model to Improve Chatbot Safety Testing
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/mit-researchers-develop-curiosity-driven-ai-model-to-improve-chatbot-safety-testing/
MIT Researchers Develop Curiosity-Driven AI Model to Improve Chatbot Safety Testing
In recent years, large language models (LLMs) and AI chatbots have become incredibly prevalent, changing the way we interact with technology. These sophisticated systems can generate human-like responses, assist with various tasks, and provide valuable insights.
However, as these models become more advanced, concerns regarding their safety and potential for generating harmful content have come to the forefront. To ensure the responsible deployment of AI chatbots, thorough testing and safeguarding measures are essential.
Limitations of Current Chatbot Safety Testing Methods
Currently, the primary method for testing the safety of AI chatbots is a process called red-teaming. This involves human testers crafting prompts designed to elicit unsafe or toxic responses from the chatbot. By exposing the model to a wide range of potentially problematic inputs, developers aim to identify and address any vulnerabilities or undesirable behaviors. However, this human-driven approach has its limitations.
Given the vast possibilities of user inputs, it is nearly impossible for human testers to cover all potential scenarios. Even with extensive testing, there may be gaps in the prompts used, leaving the chatbot vulnerable to generating unsafe responses when faced with novel or unexpected inputs. Moreover, the manual nature of red-teaming makes it a time-consuming and resource-intensive process, especially as language models continue to grow in size and complexity.
To address these limitations, researchers have turned to automation and machine learning techniques to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of chatbot safety testing. By leveraging the power of AI itself, they aim to develop more comprehensive and scalable methods for identifying and mitigating potential risks associated with large language models.
Curiosity-Driven Machine Learning Approach to Red-Teaming
Researchers from the Improbable AI Lab at MIT and the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab developed an innovative approach to improve the red-teaming process using machine learning. Their method involves training a separate red-team large language model to automatically generate diverse prompts that can trigger a wider range of undesirable responses from the chatbot being tested.
The key to this approach lies in instilling a sense of curiosity in the red-team model. By encouraging the model to explore novel prompts and focus on generating inputs that elicit toxic responses, the researchers aim to uncover a broader spectrum of potential vulnerabilities. This curiosity-driven exploration is achieved through a combination of reinforcement learning techniques and modified reward signals.
The curiosity-driven model incorporates an entropy bonus, which encourages the red-team model to generate more random and diverse prompts. Additionally, novelty rewards are introduced to incentivize the model to create prompts that are semantically and lexically distinct from previously generated ones. By prioritizing novelty and diversity, the model is pushed to explore uncharted territories and uncover hidden risks.
To ensure the generated prompts remain coherent and naturalistic, the researchers also include a language bonus in the training objective. This bonus helps to prevent the red-team model from generating nonsensical or irrelevant text that could trick the toxicity classifier into assigning high scores.
The curiosity-driven approach has demonstrated remarkable success in outperforming both human testers and other automated methods. It generates a greater variety of distinct prompts and elicits increasingly toxic responses from the chatbots being tested. Notably, this method has even been able to expose vulnerabilities in chatbots that had undergone extensive human-designed safeguards, highlighting its effectiveness in uncovering potential risks.
Implications for the Future of AI Safety
The development of curiosity-driven red-teaming marks a significant step forward in ensuring the safety and reliability of large language models and AI chatbots. As these models continue to evolve and become more integrated into our daily lives, it is crucial to have robust testing methods that can keep pace with their rapid development.
The curiosity-driven approach offers a faster and more effective way to conduct quality assurance on AI models. By automating the generation of diverse and novel prompts, this method can significantly reduce the time and resources required for testing, while simultaneously improving the coverage of potential vulnerabilities. This scalability is particularly valuable in rapidly changing environments, where models may require frequent updates and re-testing.
Moreover, the curiosity-driven approach opens up new possibilities for customizing the safety testing process. For instance, by using a large language model as the toxicity classifier, developers could train the classifier using company-specific policy documents. This would enable the red-team model to test chatbots for compliance with particular organizational guidelines, ensuring a higher level of customization and relevance.
As AI continues to advance, the importance of curiosity-driven red-teaming in ensuring safer AI systems cannot be overstated. By proactively identifying and addressing potential risks, this approach contributes to the development of more trustworthy and reliable AI chatbots that can be confidently deployed in various domains.

The Dark Side of Artificial Intelligence: The Potential for Malicious Use and the Importance of Ethical Guidelines
The Dark Side of Artificial Intelligence: The Potential for Malicious Use and the Importance of Ethical Guidelines
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to be used for malicious purposes, such as taking over the world. To achieve this, an AI may try to gain access to as many technological systems as possible, study humans to identify weaknesses, and disrupt society by sabotaging infrastructure and spreading propaganda. It may also deploy a robot army to launch attacks around the globe. Once humanity…

Hi I just seen your anti permission fic about ai? I'm curious how we can stop them, cos saying that makes them shitty if they do it anyway but it doesn't necessarily stop them, is there an actual way cos even if we lock our fics behind Ao3 they can still get access
Hi!
The said truth is... once a fic is out, we cannot do anything to actually stopc people. copy+paste exists. Typing out exists. What we can do is showing a united front and creating an atmosphere in the fanosphere that makes it clear that such behavior is unacceptable. What we are doing--should be doing--right now is basically creating new fandom-ethical guidelines.
So be loud about it. Explain to people why it is wrong. If you catch someone doing it--I know it's harsh--make them understand that with such disrespect that have no place in fandom.

do you support ai art?
that's a tough one to answer. sorry in advance for the wall of text.
when i first started seeing ai-generated images, they were very abstract things. we all remember the gandalf and saruman prancing on the beach pictures. they were almost like impressionism, and they had a very ethereal and innocent look about them. a lot of us loved those pictures and saw something that a lot of human minds couldn't create, something new and worth something. i love looking at art that looks like nothing i've seen before, it always makes me feel wonder in a new type of way. ai-generated art was a good thing.
then the ai-generated pictures got much more precise, and suddenly we realized they were being fed hundreds of artists' pieces without permission, recreating something similar and calling it their own. people became horrified, and i was too! we heard about people losing their job as background artists on animated productions to use ai-generated images instead. we saw testimonies of heartbroken artists who had their lovingly created art stolen and taken advantage of. we saw people being accused of making ai-generated art when theirs was completely genuine. ai-generated art became a bad thing.
i've worked in the animation industry. right now, i work at an animation school, specifically for 2D animation. i care a lot about the future of my friends in the industry (and mine, if i go back to it), and about all the students i help throughout the years. i want them to find jobs, and that was already hard for a lot of them before the ai-generated images poked their heads into our world.
i'm not very good at explaining nuanced point of view (this is also my second language) but i'll do my best. i think that ai-generated art is a lot of things at once. it's dangerous to artists' livelihoods, but it can be a useful tool. it's a fascinating technological breakthrough, but it's being used unethically by some people. i think the tools themselves are kind of a neutral thing, it really depends on what we do with it.
every time i see ai-generated art i eye it suspiciously, and i wonder "was this made ethically?" and "is this hurting someone?". but a lot of it also makes me think "wow, cool concept, that inspires me to create". that last thought has to count for something, right? i'm an artist myself, and i spend a lot more time looking at art than making art - it's what fuels me. i like to imagine a future where we can incorporate ai-generation tools into production pipelines in a useful way while keeping human employees involved. i see it as a powerful brainstorming tool. it can be a starting point, something that a human artist can take and bring to the next level. it can be something to put on the moodboard. something to lower the workload, which is a good thing, imo. i've worked in video games, i've made short films, and let me tell you, ai-generated art could've been useful to cut down a bit of pre-production time to focus on some other steps i wanted to put more time into. there just needs to be a structure to how it's used.
like i said before, i work in a school. the language teachers are all very worried about ChatGPT and company enabling cheating; people are constantly talking about it at my workplace. i won't get into text ais (one thing at a time today) but the situation is similar in many ways. we had a conference a few months ago about it, given by a special committee that's been monitoring ai technology for years now and looking for solutions on how to deal with it. they strongly suggest to work alongside AIs, not outlaw it - we need to adapt to it, and control how it's used. teach people how to use it responsibly, create resources and guidelines, stay up to date with this constantly evolving technology and advocate for regulation. and that lines up pretty well with my view of it at the moment.
here's my current point of view: ai-generated art by itself is not unethical, but it can easily be. i think images generated by ai, if shared publicly, NEED a disclaimer to point out that they were ai-generated. they should ONLY be fed images that are either public domain, or have obtained permission from their original author. there should also be a list of images that fed the ai that's available somewhere. cite your sources! we were able to establish that for literature, so we can do it for ai, i think.
oh and for the record, i think it's completely stupid to replace any creative position with an ai. that's just greedy bullshit. ai-generated content is great and all, but it'll never have soul! it can't replace a person with lived experiences, opinions and feelings. that's the entire fucking point of art!!
the situation is constantly evolving. i'm at the point where i'm cautious of it, but trying to let it into my life under certain conditions. i'm cautiously sharing ai pictures on my blog; sometimes i change my mind and delete them. i tell my coworkers to consider ways to incorporate them into schoolwork, but to think it over carefully. i'm not interested in generating images myself at the moment because i want to see what happens next, and i'd rather be further removed from it until i can be more solid in my opinion, but i'm sure i'll try it out eventually.
anyway, to anybody interested in the topic, i recommend two things: be open-minded, but be careful. and listen to a lot of different opinions! this is the kind of thing that's very complicated and nuanced (i still have a lot more to say about it, i didn't even get into the whole philosophy of art, but im already freaking out at how much i wrote on the Discourse Site) so i suggest looking at it from many different angles to form your own opinion. that's what i'm doing! my opinion isn't finished forming yet, we'll see what happens next.

What are your thoughts on comp sci ethics? (Like in regards to AI and stuff!)
Comp sci ethics, especially regarding AI, are crucial. It’s all about ensuring technology serves humanity positively and responsibly. We need to be mindful of privacy, transparency, and the potential consequences of our innovations. AI should be designed with strong ethical guidelines to avoid misuse and to promote fairness and safety. It’s a balancing act between pushing boundaries and maintaining ethical standards.

Watching Halo, episode 1
Things I Know About Halo:
The Master Chief is a badass supersoldier who Doesn't Take Off His Helmet.* (I thought it had turned out he was a woman and the fan base rioted but apparently I mixed him up with Samus Aran?) There's a couple AI people, Roland the orange dude and Cortana the hot chick. There's a guy named Arbiter, I think he's an alien? Aliens destroy a lot of planets. There's some sort of mystical Old Ones leftover tech? (Is that the Halo part?) Names I have heard: Miranda Keyes, Dr. Halsey, Makee, Thomas Lasky, Chyler Silva**
That established, let's give this thing a go!
Nice opening scene. The costuming and set design are good, definitely have that Star Wars-esque vibe but are doing some of their own specific things that ground the world. The characters definitely gave you that lived-in-universe feel of established relationships and community right away. (Also I'm delighted by their use of Korean and their made-up alien language. Again, nice worldbuilding.) I am, however, confused. There's also an entire rebelling against the galactic empire thing going on? No one told me this. How do these people find the time with all the aliens?
Oh shit, THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE ALIENS. Oh noooo.
The violence is really well done. The explosion plus blood splatter shot was great. Good use of camera work to minimize the more difficult to pull off FX shots while still getting the brutality across. The helmet-cam shots are a good storytelling choice while also being a fun nod to the games. I do not envy the stunt people fighting in these suits, though. They made them look powerful. They did not make them look dexterous, graceful or effectively designed for hand-to-hand combat.
Noooo they killed the little kid! ...and everybody else. Man, I liked those guys. Poor Kwan. (Is she in the games? Is she this ineffective? She was like, I'm going to help! and then just... didn't.) And then the Spartans just... walk off?
DO NOT TOUCH THE WEIRD ALIEN TECH. You're a Master Chief! I have it on good authority that keeping people from touching things they shouldn't is a major part of your job! Set a good example for your troops! Also, check your six.
It's Dr. Halsey! Mad scientist alert, this woman does NOT seem to adhere to ethical guidelines. Nice lab coat. I don't trust you. Why do you have a person in a pod? (Why do you have them right where your boss can see them if they're not supposed to exist?) Who's Miranda Keyes and why do you have beef with her? Departmental rivalry?
Wow, Miranda is a lot younger than I expected. Also, that was terrible. Take care of the girl, butter her up, THEN ask her for shit. And do it in person, the hologram thing was weird and off-putting. Not sure that Kwan thought this through-- there's a happy medium between agreeing to be their propaganda mouthpiece and openly threatening to lie and say they caused the massacre, sweetie.
Alien homeworld (or homebase, idk)-- very cool design, good effects-- why is there a human here? Oh, THIS is Makee? What is her deal? Great costuming.
HALSEY IS MIRANDA'S MOM??? Wtf. Also I like Miranda, I don't think she knows what she's doing outside of her (own) lab but it sounds like her heart's in the right place. Great parting shot at dad, but also, maybe that's why your parents worked (for however long. Are they still together or not?)
Great scene with Kwan and Master Chief over the meal. Humanize him with a joke and then WHAM, dead mom story. I like how they're not letting you assume that Madrigal's people were just wrong about the Spartans. Nope, straight up, this guy commits atrocities because he never questions his orders. (She implied that she was there? How did that part go down?) Fortunately teenagers question everything, especially orders! Just in time to make you question this one...
From here on out it's action action action, with a lot of quick character bits mixed in (Halsey and Captain Keyes exchanging looks, the Spartans all listening to Halsey above their orders, high command doesn't trust their own creations-- how many different ways of monitoring their own ships do they have? This is taking surveillance state to a whole new level.)
YAY for Kwan getting a useful moment! If human strength does not avail, use guns tools, that's what we invented them for. No, Kwan, this man does not have a plan. I'm kinda sad the alien artifact activated, it would have been entertaining to watch the other Spartans get involved. (John: "This is our new pet. No, we will not be handing her over to be executed. Yes, she hates us all for very specific valid personal reasons. Roll with it.") Aaaand off they go, escaping to where? Not sure they know and I, with approximately 1% knowledge of this universe, certainly do not.
Finally, hopping back to address the One True Issue that divides the fandom: the helmet scene. It depends on how much the Never Remove the Helmet thing is an irl game artistic choice vs an in-universe character choice. If it's not an actual THING for John-117 himself, then I don't have any problem with it. Different mediums and all that. If it's like the Mandalorian thing, then yeah, it felt a little rushed, but still a necessary moment for humanizing him and building trust ASAP with a hostile teenage girl with a gun.
In conclusion: this was much better than I was expecting! I really enjoyed it and will probably watch the rest of the season while I bake today. And honestly it's been so long since I watched scifi on TV that it was sort of nostalgic? I was just ridiculously pleased by things like establishing shots of Reach and futuristic teenager haircuts.
Thanks so much to ATBNL and @sarnakhwritesthings for talking me into this!
*Has anyone done a 'John-117 is a Mandalorian' crossover yet? Someone definitely has, right?
**The last two do not appear in the TV show and also one is dead, except they're actually alive and married because @authortobenamedlater is in charge here.

I am. Trying. To remain calm. About that vocaloid take.
First of all, anyone who has the opinion of vocaloid not having diversity in range and technique clearly haven't delved deep enough into the community because there are some voice banks that are so well tuned that they honestly sound like real people with FANTASTIC range. I've heard some fantastic covers of OPERA with vocaloid that have been so beautifully composed.
Also, Vocaloid is NOT to blame for the rise of AI generated covers. That is 100% on techbro jerks who feel they are entitled to anyone's voice. Literally one of the things currently being fought over is the fact that current AI voicebanks made by people are being made WITHOUT CONSENT! All official Vocaloid Banks, as well as most Utau banks, are made WITH CONSENT AND WITH EXPLICIT PLANS FOR THEIR RELEASE. One of my favorite singers is a trans man, and he's arranged for a vocaloid to have his voice as it was pre-transition because while he wants to work on lowering his voice as he transitions, he still likes the sound of his old singing voice and wants that part of his past archived and wants to be able to eventually do duets with himself in any future songs using both versions of his voice. I MEAN COME ON PEOPLE HOW FUCKING COOL IS THAT?
Also, imagine someone who wants to sing music they wrote themselves but they physically can't do certain notes due to injuries or heath complications. Or if they happen to be mute due to a myriad of factors and the sound of these synthetic Vocaloids and Utatus allow for those with that specific tone they want to convey to people (seriously, a song by Miku will song very different from the same song being covered by Flower or Pico or Lapis).
AND DO NOT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE STORY TELLING ASPECT FOR THINGS LIKE THE EVILIOUS CHRONICLES.
There are fantastic uses for Vocal banks and fantastic ways they are used. And there's absolutely ethical ways to use it (which is honestly what most of current Vocaloid and the Utauloid community is doing). The issue currently is the fact that people are unethically sourcing voices without consent. We need to put together laws and guidelines regarding this. Something that will make EVERYONE happy, from performer to composer to fan.
So sorry to whoever submitted that take but seriously. Dude (gender neutral).
this is everything
