Preventing Harmful Generations

  We’ve limited the ability for DALL·E 2 to generate violent, 
  hate, or adult images. By removing the most explicit content 
  from the training data, we minimized DALL·E 2’s exposure to 
  these concepts. We also used advanced techniques to prevent 
  photorealistic generations of real individuals’ faces, 
  including those of public figures.
"And we've also closed off a huge range of potentially interesting work as a result"

I can't help but feel a lot of the safeguarding is more about preventing bad PR than anything. I wish I could have a version with the training wheels taken off. And there's enough other models out there without restriction that the stories about "misuse of AI" will still circulate.

(side note - I've been on HN for years and I still can't figure out how to format text as a quote.)

I don't think there is a way comparable to markdown, since the formatting options are limited: https://news.ycombinator.com/formatdoc

So your options are literal quotes, "code" formatting like you've done, italics like I've done, or the '>' convention, but that doesn't actually apply formatting. Would be nice if it were added.

If you're interested, the HNES extension formats it
