Experience AI-Powered Summarization and Categorization

At the core of ClipGPT is an AI-engine that intelligently summarizes and categorizes your notes and bookmarks. Users no longer need to manually sift through piles of information, as ClipGPT curates content in a way that is easily digestible and accessible.

Explore New Content and Follow Friends

ClipGPT’s “Explore” offers a curated selection of trending content, giving users a chance to discover something new across the entire platform, whereas the “Feed” gives them an easy way to digest the things tha the people they follow are saving to the platform. Users can also follow “labels”, which provides an opportunity to follow topics of interest on a deeper level. Users can also interact through comments on specific shared items within the platform, and everything is markdown enabled for a deeper level of customization.

Collaborate with Public and Private Groups

ClipGPT encourages collaboration by allowing users to create and join both public and private groups. These groups are a more deliberate option on top of the AI-smarts, which allow content sharing and discussions around a specifically curated collection of bookmarks and notes. Perhaps you have a few close friends that share a similar interest in a topic, or you are collecting ideas for your home with a significant other.

Power User Features for Enhanced Productivity

For users seeking advanced functionality, ClipGPT offers features such as emailing links directly to their profile, importing bookmarks from other tools, and a very cool feature that transcribes and summarizes audio content into text format using the Whisper API.

“I’m super excited to show ClipGPT to everyone,” said Danny Peck, Founder and lead developer of ClipGPT. “It’s a love letter to the Internet that I feel combines the best part of these types of tools from an older time of the web, but with something modern and brand new on top. I hope it will be something people get a joy out of using.”

Are we on a collision course to bringing back the dead with AI?
A girl walking into a rainbow

We’ve seen incredible advancements in artificial intelligence over the last year. Not just language models like ChatGPT, but also artistic expression models like Stable Diffusion, DALL-E 2.0, and MidJourney. We’ve seen experiments that give you the ability to make AI-generated music based on a prompt, and now Microsoft is experimenting with a new one called VALL-E, which is a voice language model that can recreate a person’s voice, complete with the ability to convey emotion, based on only 3 seconds of audio.

Where’s this all going? It feels like we’re on the precipice of something big and interesting here.

I have to imagine that the convergence of these technologies is the logical conclusion of the advancements we’ve seen so far. Currently these AI systems are silo’d from one another, but I imagine a world where they work together to perform much more complicated tasks.

…we’re literally moments away from the ability to create a synthesized version of anyone.

For better or for worse, there are currently a lot of people and companies very interested in the idea of creating simulated versions of real people. The wild part of this is, the technology is already there. From the language models that can be fine tuned based on their training data, to the ability to create completely new images of a person based on previous images combined with customized prompts, to the ability to generate a voice model based on a few disparate audio recordings, we’re literally moments away from the ability to create a synthesized version of anyone.

Here’s a photo of a guy on a beach, except he’s never been to this beach, ever.

A guy on a beach

On the one hand, the idea of conversing with your deceased dad, pouring your heart out about the things you wish you had told him when he was alive, receiving words of comfort from him, as he replies in the subtle ways that only he would, might sound incredibly creepy and unsettling. On the other, though, there are millions of people who need to have this sort of conversation in order to heal.

This is only one of a thousand potential applications of such a technology. At the very least, I imagine a world where we’ll be able to customize our voice assistants to our liking: from the voice, to the personality, to the name. We’re a ways off from realizing the movie Her, but you can probably already see a near future version where our digital assistants have gotten a lot better at showing us compassion and empathy, and connecting with us on a more personal level.

It’s a new and exciting time to be alive. I find it fascinating to witness these new emerging technologies. There are indeed murky waters ahead, and we’re for sure going to make mistakes along the way, but I do imagine that there does exist a better version of the future where these technologies are harnessed for good, and can have a net-positive impact on our world.

Artist banned, told to “find a different style” since his is too similar to AI-made art
A Muse in the Warzone

The above image is not AI generated. It’s the work of an artist who goes by the name benmoran_artist. After submitting this to a popular subreddit of 22M followers, he was banned by the moderator for “looking like AI art.” After reaching out to the moderator of the subreddit, he was given this incredibly flippant response.

I don’t believe you. Even if you did “paint” it yourself, it’s so obviously an AI-prompted design that it doesn’t matter. If you really are a “serious” artist, then you need to find a different style, because A) no one is going to believe when you say it’s not AI, and B) the AI can do better in seconds what might take you hours. Sorry, it’s the way of the world.

Subreddit Mod

The artist then went public on his Twitter page where he showed his art process and further references.

He has since reposted the drawing to r/Drawing where it has been more welcomed.

ChatGPT Banned for Students and Teachers in NYC

The machine learning chatbot is inaccessible on NYC school networks and devices, with a reason of “concerns about negative impacts on student learning,” a spokesperson said.

NYC State Education Building

The New York City education department has blocked access to ChatGPT, a chatbot using machine learning to create realistic text, due to concerns about the “safety and accuracy” of its content. Access to ChatGPT will be restricted on the department’s devices and networks, although individual schools can request access for the purpose of studying artificial intelligence and technology-related education.

The chatbot has generated a lot of discussion and fear about the increasing use of artificial intelligence in creative industries, but has received criticism for its limited capabilities and incorrect responses to programming questions.

There have also been reports of teachers’ concern that the technology could be used to cheat on assignments. OpenAI, the company that developed ChatGPT, has not yet commented on the ban.

It appears that ChatGPT has generated a lot of discussion and fear about the increasing use of artificial intelligence in creative industries. Some people may be concerned about the potential negative impacts on student learning and the safety and accuracy of the content generated by the chatbot.

The Smile: Tiny Desk Concert

The Smile performing for NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert series

If you like Radiohead and haven’t been introduced to The Smile yet, you’re in for a real treat. This is a great performance of 3 songs off of the band’s debut album. “Skrting On the Surface” gives me serious “In Rainbows” vibes!

From NPR:

Surely my musical highlight for 2022 was this Tiny Desk concert from The Smile. Just how Radiohead’s Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, and Sons of Kemet drummer Tom Skinner were going to perform songs from their sonically adventurous album A Light for Attracting Attention was a puzzle not only to me but to the band. They arrived early, along with saxophonist Robert Stillman, to test out several tunes and figure out just what made sense behind my desk — minus the volume and effects that shape the album’s sonic landscape. For roughly 90 minutes, the Tiny Desk crew was treated to a casual rehearsal, witnessing the band’s creative companionship work itself out, settling on four songs.

Stanford Scientists Warn the End of our Civilization is Near
A Decaying Building

On New Year’s Day, several scientists from Stanford University appeared on the CBS program “60 Minutes” to discuss the current global mass extinction crisis.

“Humanity is very busily sitting on a limb that we’re sawing off.”

Biologist Tony Barnosky explained that his research suggests that current extinction rates are occurring at a rate approximately 100 times faster than what is typically seen in Earth’s history. According to Barnosky, this rapid loss of species means that Earth is currently experiencing its worst mass extinction event since the dinosaurs.

Paul Ehrlich, another Stanford scientist who appeared on the show, stated that “the next few decades will be the end of the kind of civilization we’re used to.”

The researchers warned that even if humans manage to survive, the wide-reaching impacts of mass extinction, such as habitat destruction and soil infertility, would cause modern human society to crumble.

Ehrlich attributes the mass extinction crisis to “too many people, too much consumption and growth mania.”
