  • They seem to be experimenting with that for sure, but need to ensure quality of the model doesn't degrade, as per source article:

    Anthropic’s chief scientist, Jared Kaplan, said some types of synthetic data can be helpful. Anthropic said it used “data we generate internally” to inform its latest versions of its Claude models. OpenAI also is exploring synthetic data generation, the spokeswoman said.

    Google’s Bard AI can now find answers in your Gmail, Docs, Drive.
  • This seems to be the conversation logs being used for training Bard, without the bits pulled from Gmail etc. (if we're to believe the bard workspace TOS). I believe OpenAI does it too, for improving chatgpt, unless you've an enterprise subscription.

  • Google’s Bard AI can now find answers in your Gmail, Docs, Drive.
  • I probably won't be using this too, as terms can change anytime. But I can't seem to find the part where it says it'll using it for training data. I read the verge article, bard blog as well as TOS that is presented when you want to opt-in to this, but didn't see find it.

    Here's the excerpt from the TOS:

    How data is used

    Bard processes your personal data that it gets from Google Workspace, such as your name and email address, and your private content, like emails or docs you created or received, and uses it to:

    • Provide Bard features to you. For example:
      • Summarize your emails when you ask
      • Share content at your request
    • Maintain Bard services. For example:
      • Recover from service crashes
      • Measure overall user experience

    Your personal content that Bard gets from Google Workspace is:

    • Not allowed to be accessed or reviewed by human reviewers
    • Not used to improve generative machine learning technologies that power Bard
    • Not used to show you ads
    • Not stored past the time period needed to provide and maintain Bard services

    Expose AWS EC2 web app via Cloudflared tunnel
  • Cloudflare tunnel only requires outbound port opened, check if you've allowed all outbound ports in EC2 security group (the default VPC should have this already).

    Otherwise it's probably a misconfiguration reaching the IP/port of the cloudflared service on the EC2. Have you tried checking cloudflared logs? Does your tunnel status show up as healthy?

    Does lemmy clear out pictrs cache regularly on a schedule?
  • Yeah. I guess we could fetch all image ids from the database excluding those uploaded to our local instance, and loop them through the DELETE /image/delete/{delete_token}/{file} API. But I've no idea how to get the delete_token, seems like it's available only during image upload.

    Does lemmy clear out pictrs cache regularly on a schedule?

    As it is currently, the storage space on server can quickly fill up if cached images are not cleaned regularly. I've tried to find if lemmy runs any kind of schedule for this, but doesn't seem like it from the code: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/src/scheduled_tasks.rs
