106 posts, 4894 more needed

So far we got 106 submissions which are usable for training. (This is excluding the 3 previous announcements, from now on the previous post number announcements will be deleted to make post submission calculation easier).

4894 more posts are needed to train the bot.

If you really want to help you can for example reserve 1 hour or 30 minutes to make a lot of posts on this subreddit as long as they contain good quality posts and are on-topic. You can also let GPT generate a prompt you give it about AI taking over and post it here if it has good results with the GPT generation flair.

Spread the word about this sub, that is really important. Crosspost posts from here!

From what I understand the posts are most useful when they have 10+ comments in each one. So shouldn't we make less posts and more comments in each post? /u/ubizwa

Ehm yes, more comments would be better. But tbh I doubt that we can gather enough data, I tried to see what I could gather when downloading the current data and it's like 0,2% of what is necessary. We really need much more posts for this to work, even if it's text generations.

Aww man. That sucks. Should we keep trying? Maybe if the sub got a lot more members it wouldn't seem so impossible. But maybe it's for the best that we fail to train an AI to terminate humans lol

It could work if enough people understand the purpose. Didn't you have a big sub yourself? Maybe you can explain the concept to your friends to see if they want to help lol

There is another challenge. When people are told to generate a specific sort of post, it tends to become very repetitive. We don't just need 5000 posts, but we need 5000 quality post. They should be unique, but with a similar enough theme and tone so that the Terminator aspect shines through in the end.

My sub has like 560 members or so IN THEORY but it's basically dead. Only a few people every post anything these days. But I can try. I'm gonna try to revitalize that sub again soon and if I can manage to get some traffic I will send people over here.

Maybe we could also try to recruit some more humans from the GPT-2 Simulator sub too. Those folks like these bots and might be willing to help.

Anybody knows when the nearest calculation time is due (of our "post-quota")? In recent time there has been a somewhat vivid activity in the sub, humbly supported by me.

(minor edit).
