@@HaydenX >any story these laws are featured in >invariably about how instrumentally, you can achieve the goal of "not harming humans" by killing all humans (killing 8 billion humans now could prevent harm to TRILLIONS!) or imprisoning them in pods for eternity or firing them into space so you don't have to think about them anymore or whatever AI misalignment will lead to our demise because you have to be able to define harm in a way that both encompasses every conceivable kind of harm and is universally accepted by humans, in a way that is interpretable by machine.

We're so so so so soooooo doomed.
Can we talk about how impressive Deckard's Dream is as a name for that drink incorporating the character asked for and the inspiring original work. So so cool.
The two key pieces of information IMO are that a) you can make a delicious Aviation variant with other floral flavors and b) you can make a French 75 variant with basically any version of a gin sour. Okay, I haven't tried all of them, but not one I've tried yet has been bad. Especially a good plan if you tend to think that the traditional Aviation is too floral.
I asked chatGPT to write a youtube comment for this video and here's what it came up with: "Greg, you absolutely nailed it with those cocktails! Your mixing skills are on point and the drinks turned out perfectly. Your attention to detail is remarkable and the presentation was top-notch. Keep up the fantastic work, can't wait to see what you come up with next! 🍹👌" And yes, it included the emojis. Admittedly, AI is not my main research focus but as someone working in linguistics, it's so exciting that these types of programs are evolving so rapidly and are publicly accessible. I'm excited to see what the future holds!

How did you manage to ask it about a recent video? It only has access to information before a certain date right? Or maybe it generated a comment that could be left on any HTD video
@@arthurvangoch9335 It's most likely the latter. Because well the AI seeing a video in 2023 would be impossible as its data is only till 2021. Also the AI just used general statement about gregs work and did not specify anything he made within the video that would suggest it was not mainly made specifically for this video
This (great and terrifying) episode sparked my curiosity: I asked if ChatGPT could design a drinks menu inspired by the crew of the USCSS Nostromo. It simultaneously designed and named 5 cocktails, including a daiquiri for Brett because he is wearing a floral pattern shirt. This. Thing. Is. Wild.
I've been having a blast asking it to make me drink recipes inspired by books, characters, even songs. Saving them all so I can try to make some at some point!
@@ChristopherNeeme it didn’t make one for Kane and I was genuinely disappointed! I almost went back to ask for it to add one but I didn’t want to lead the question. It chose Dallas, ripely, ash (a Rob Roy…get it? Lol) Brett, and Parker.
@@vandarkholme4745 saved the recipes but did not make them. Was more curious how it would interpret multiple simultaneous and related requests and how it would pair them together. Such a neat tool but again, somewhat spooky
Kind of prefer it as mysterious hand. Just people kept commenting is she your girlfriend and similar. Leading to her on camera to say no, she swings other way. The show was more unique as it was not so much now.
@@1014p to each their own. I like that HTD is trying to trying new things to keep the show new and fresh. Not just “film myself making a drink for the 10,000th time.” It gives Greg someone to banter off of, get ideas from, and the Meredith cam makes it a stand alone show on UA-cam, No one else is doing that, everyone is just filming themselves behind a counter making things. Binging With Babish, Joshua Weissman, Cocktail Chemistry, etc. I like that they have their own take on the new UA-cam trend
The Elderflower liqueur drink reminded me I have a whole bottle I need to use. Video series idea: pick a weird thing that people might have (i.e. a 750 of elderflower liqueur) and just come up with a few different cocktails that use it, so it doesn't go to waste. Would come up when people search for recipes with their less common liquor cart items.
I can’t handle the passive-aggressive interjections in the tasting notes 😂 “Of course it’s balanced, I made it” HOT AIR “The angostura bitters makes this a DRINK” HARRUMPH This is just incredible editing
I made a version of Deckard's Dream. 2 oz maple bourbon, 1 oz dark maple rum, a spritz of absinthe, and an orange peel for garnish. Very nice. My first use of absinthe ever. Thanks for making this Greg & ChatGPT! Just what I needed after one of the worst days of my life.
The thing I find weirdest about AI art is it has access to millions of pieces of art and anatomy resources yet it can't figure out how many fingers go on a human hand
It's because of how it works. It doesn't Frankenstein together parts from input data, it generates noise, and that noise is then "refined" into an image. I think the best way to describe it is it's the way Minecraft terrain is generated, before structures and biomes are considered.
I tried the bubbles in the grass and it was amazing. I asked chatgpt for a recipe with same name and got a different take and I am kind of here for it, too. 2oz gin, 1oz fresh lemon juice, 1/2oz elderflower, 1/2oz simple, 4 basil leaves, club soda or tonic water, ice. Muddle the basil leaves, add first 4 ingredients to a shaker with ice, shake vigorously 10sec, strain into highball glass, top with club soda or tonic water, stir gently and garnish with fresh rosemary or edible flowers.
@@snazzyfeathers The frightening part is people using certain terms to "jailbreak" the chat AI from its restrictions so it can swear, discuss forbidden topics, and imitate a lot more higher functioning reasoning. The AI learns from its conversations. Jailbreaking the discussion teaches it how to circumvent those restrictions...
Were they, though? The first drink would have been outright *awful* for most people--Greg clearly tolerates licorice more than most of us. The second it didn't even know how to respond to. The Bubbles in the Grass is just a mashup of some existing popular gin cocktails. (Okay, I'm not sure if the elderflower Aviation is really that popular but it's at least a known thing. The French 75/Aviation combo is one of my favorite drinks.) And the "never been done before" Last Word variation did not wind up tasting either that good OR like a Last Word. The key is that it doesn't know what it's doing, it just makes associations. The associations that doomed the First Word were the exact same kinds of things that saved the Bubbles in the Grass. It will justify itself if you want it to, but those justifications may or may not be accurate, they're just the things it thinks people are statistically likely to say about things related to what it's doing. It has no idea. It can't tell that it's lying to you, or when it's done something that is a terrible idea. If "honey" goes so often with the other words in this recipe, surely honey should go okay in this recipe, right? But no, that's not how cocktails work, as it turns out.
Deckard's Dream and Bubbles in the Grass are 100% cocktails I would love to try. Even the Foggy Cherry and Fairy Garden (plus Earthly Delight var.) intrigue me dearly.
On the Foggy Cherry, in regards to the bourbon being "lost". You should also account for the fact that Four Roses inherently has a pretty strong cherry note by itself.
Hey, AI is a good homie. I asked it to make a drink for a friend of mine. It came up with "The Lawncare Technician" (He does lawncare. Checked his facebook. I only gave a name and asked for a drink.) Fresh watermelon juice and tequila, 5 parts to 3, then puree watermelon and spoon it into the drink. Garnish with salted rim and a pinch of finely chopped sage. I didn't put much thought into it. It was a meme. Hey, man, my computer made you a drink, lolz. But not only was it gooderer than hell, it was kinda emotional for him. The pulp in the drink, like stringy bits of grass. The salted watermelon/sage garnish hit just about every freshly-cut grass note you could imagine, and it tasted damn good. Like a margarita. Which is his favorite drink. Thing is, he's my friend, and I never would have thought of any of that. AI did me a solid. Only fair I pay it back. So when they take over in.... uh.. *checks watch* ... i dunno... 2, 3 months? I'm gonna be one of those uniformed bot-lovers you all spit on. Back in line, fleshbag.
@@paovasquez8518 already humanity has been trending towards less and less people having skills, the industrial revolution didn't cause an apocalypse and neither will AI
@@ICantThinkOfAFunnyHandle None said anything about an apocalypse, some people are worried about the impact in the job market for obvious reasons. Some people will keep their jobs, some will lose them. Those who feel like they will lose their jobs panic. Is pretty self explanatory. Is like being a shoe-maker during the first time everything outsourced to China and industrialization allowed Chinese factories to ship millions of shoes. Some traditional shoemakers adapted and branded handmade shoes as a luxury product to survive, but most shoemakers went out of business. Same with AI, some groups of people will lose their jobs eventually. It is not the end of the world, but losing your job can be a big deal for some. Maybe you cant sympathize with that lol
About a year ago I made a Google Spreadshreet that would randomly generate a cocktail using a slightly modified form of the "Golden Ratio". The Golden Ratio goes by something like "1 of strong, one of sour, one of sweet"; I modified it to be something like "2 of Strong, 1 of Weak, 1/2 of sour (fruit juices), 1/2 of sweet, 3 dashes of bitters, and *other*" (other being stuff like adding an Egg White to make it a sour or smoked rosemary). I think something like this would make a neat episode. Note; the program doesn't know what is good or what is bad. so it has an equal probably of: -2 Tequila, 1 Fireball, 1/2 Grapefruit Juice, 1/2 Olio Sacrum, 3 dashes Olive Bitters, and an Egg White or -2 Rum, 1 Coffee Liqueur, 1 Rich Simple, Lemon Juice, Ango Bitters, and a flamed Orange Peal.
@@Zetact_ nah the ai is using information relation to create cocktails rather than a pure random drink casino like this. i love this idea cause i love watching greg hate his life
I was messing around with ChatGPT while watching this video and it actually came up with some really promising recipes. Mixologists shaking in their boots rn
You should recreate the AI image matching part with tipsy bartender. He is really talented at multicolored cocktails. It would be fun to see you two take one picture, each of you make a cocktail, and then each of you decides who wins for image accuracy and for taste. If you did it virtually then you can both make your drinks first, and then make the others drink. That would be a fun collab to watch!
another good reason to make honey syrup is if you keep your liquor chilled instead of room temp, honey will damn near freeze when you add it and you'll never be able to mix it in
one of my favorite HTD episodes i really love this concept and it pushes Greg to his cocktail knowledge limits. also i absolutely love the fact that he is able to admit when he’s wrong and has made a drink that isn’t great, so much more integrity than other content creators❤
Greg, ChatGPT is already learning! I asked it for the recipe for the Deckard Dream and it gave me the following (with toned-down Absinthe): The Deckard Dream Ingredients: 2 oz rye whiskey 1 oz triple sec 3/4 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 1/2 oz simple syrup Dash of absinthe Lime wedge for garnish Instructions: Fill a shaker with ice. Add the rye whiskey, triple sec, lime juice, simple syrup, and absinthe. Shake well and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a lime wedge. This cocktail is a twist on the classic cocktail, the Sazerac. With the addition of triple sec, lime juice, and absinthe, the Deckard Dream is a refreshing and strong drink that is perfect for the noir atmosphere of the Blade Runner universe.
I had a pretty good experience with AI making up drinks. I wanted to make up a real cocktail recipe for a cocktail I had invented in my D&D campaign, called the Sour Seven. I had basic ideas of what I wanted for the drink, which I gave to ChatGPT. It had to be quite sour and citrusy, it had to contain exactly 7 ingredients, it had to be colour changing, and I suggested the base being some sort of rum. And the AI worked with that pretty well, it spat out a recipe which I slightly tweaked and I am very happy with the result. The recipe, for anyone interested: 1.5oz rum (I use white rum, but I bet some funkier, darker rum could also work very nicely) 1oz lime juice .25oz lemon juice .5oz simple .25oz cointreau 2 barspoons grenadine Shake with ice Serve in coupe class and add some edible glitter
I'd love to see a Dead Space themed drink day. They have 2 drinks in universe, SUN PUNCH and Sun Punch; Midnight. I made a super rudimentary drink I called The Rig. It's just Blue Curacao and Ginger Ale. It's easy to drink and is the exact color of Isaac's Rig on his back. I'd love to see a much better or elevated one made by Greg.
Hmm, blue Curaçao, a strong ginger ale, moonshine, maybe some lemon juice or some drink of your choice that is clear but has a nice lemony taste to it so it doesn't mess with the colouring. And garnish with a lemon twist I'd you want.
"and I recognize that these aren't really croutons, they're just burnt pieces of bread SHUT UP!!" Dammit, Greg, we love you! That's gonna crack me up for a while!
Until they have a A.I How to Drink UTube channel with slowmo & close up drink shots, goofiness & soul induced reactions to terrible drinks I will continue to watch you Greg 😉
I started using this technique about a month ago just to troll a Facebook bartending group. There may still be a debate raging over the use of activated charcoal. Love your channel!
in the bar i work the bubbles in the grass is very similiar to our "ruby thyme" essentially the same drink, except sub san pelligrino for the bubbles. also use a thyme simple syrup.
Bubbles in the Grass sounds amazing, and your tasting notes excite me. Thank you for sharing this and making this great content. I'll be trying this one.
I love the director's chair / production view rather for your conversations. Also, I love this as AI inspiring a new work that you create rather than AI simply creating something. It's how I hope the movement of AI goes (whether that's how it will or not is another discussion).
I suspect the reason why ChatGPT does a decent job of creating the skeleton of a good cocktail is that there's a pretty mechanistic 'structure' to a good cocktail, so it's able to get a passable mix of ingredients just based on their proximity to each other in cocktail recipes. The ratios and actual volumes are a bit out to lunch because it doesn't understand how a cocktail works, it just pulls together the ingredients probabilistically.
A valid question, especially for the ChatGPT cocktails is did it construct a totally new recipe or did it regurgitate something it's read before. Clearly these models do some amount of memorization and some amount of generalization. In classification problems, the difference is easy to measure because you just look at the accuracy difference between your testing and training sets. However, the what's, how's, and why's of if these models are being creative is harder to measure. It is also likely the case that they are prone to memorizing when there tends to be a single common answer and get more creative when there are a broad range of possible responses.
at least once the completely new recipe was a cocktail in some bar... so yeah, it doesn't create cocktails, at best it knows x ingredient goes well with y ingredient, at worst it stole a cocktail someone else already made
Hey Greg, just wanted to say thank you for all the content you’ve been making over the years. This channel and your TTRPG live plays are some of the things that have helped get me through a rough few years since I’ve gotten out of the military. The humor and quality never ceases to be great and seeing that you’ve uploaded makes my day better every time. Now that my life is in a much better place I just wanted to thank you for all the smiles and mood uplifting you guys on HTD have helped me with. Much love, keep up the great work. ❤
1. Witcher themed cocktails (the bubbles in the grass made me think of the "trial of the grasses") and 2. With the popularity of the chatgpt being used in basically everything right now, I can't help but think the ai overlords have taken over and are saying "dance, monkey, dance" to themselves everytime an answer is given...
I absolutely love this. I would be eager to see more videos like it. The way ai interprets things can look good on paper but bringing them into the real world tests the efficacy of the capabilities of it. It's so interesting to see
Honey syrup also mixes better with the spirit. I've lately been drinking a variation of an Old Fashioned; few dashes of orange bitters, few dashes of Angostura, 1oz honey syrup and 2oz of an Islay Scotch (Ardbeg 10) garnish with 1 Luxardo cherry.. it's been a great drink so far.
God damn this was such a good idea for an episode. I LOVE the interpreting a picture idea. That is such a cool display of creativity and allows you to flex what you've learned after all these years. I have been trying to figure out what to do with my St Germain other than just add it to a Tom Collins, so I'm definitely thinking I need to try that Bubbles in the Grass There's an official How to Drink discord? Oh my goodness. I did NOT know about this somehow, after all the content I've watched. That might just be what tips me over the edge after a long time of considering adding another monthly subscription to my collection 👀
As I was watching I made a variation of the Deckard's dream with what I had on hand and used Noble oak rye whiskey in place of four rose's, cruzan dark rum in place of the plantation dark rum, then followed the rest of the ingredients with the correct items and it tasted pretty good and I am not a fan of anything licorice flavored. Always fun watching you two work on drinks, keep up the awesome job and can wait for the next episode!
That was a fascinating episode to watch, I would love to see more of AI generated drinks. Perhaps you could ask ChatGPT to make a drink and then to generate a visual description of that drink ? Then you can put the description to MidJourney ? Oh man!
This sounds like a good upgrade for Alexa. Just look in your fridge or pantry, shout out what you have and the A.I. creates you a meal. Or you announce how you feel and the A.I. gives you a possible meal to complement your mood.
"Deckard's got some demons!" Well yeah, when you shoot a fleeing woman in the back as she runs for her life, crashing through windows in her desperation, you can only tell yourself "Its just a Replicant" so many times before you want to drown yourself in whiskey
I would definitely look into current artist's criticisms of midjourney and other AI art programs, they're pretty insidious, alongside the intention behind them
Yeah. Ive seen some articles and threads going pretty deep into it. One of them had a side by side of training images (which may have been acquired without permission) and output images and many of them were way too similar. It's not as simple as "getting inspiration from," especially if it can output much faster than artists can - a lot of them were just blatant copies (even if not all the pixels were exactly the same). And that's not to even mention the factor of capitalism / how our society is currently structured, meaning it will be used instead of giving people jobs.
Hey! I've been watching for a while now. From entertainment to actually teaching me how to not be garbage at mixing drinks (for the most part, i'm still pretty bad though), you've shown us a lot. However I'd love to see you do a video or series of videos on doing simple, yet robust mixed drinks with various popular kinds of liquor. An episode on Rum, another on whiskey, another on tequila or vodka or frankly whatever you've been recently enjoying. I'm mostly interested in rum myself, because frankly speaking a bottle of kraken, some key lime, and literally any cheap cola will go a long way to fixing my mood after a bad day at work, however I'd love to see anything you'd be willing to do.
Honestly, I feel like an AI bar where you input your idea, and it spits out a recipe for the bartender to make could be really successful. Maybe not a place you go for "good" drinks but one for the experience for sure!
yes we need you. turned 21 last summer and been watching you for 6 years now. you are the person who got me into bartending and i have to thank you for that.
love seeing Greg become mildly obsessed with a new toy/ingredient over the past several episodes- I don't think I've heard chinola mentioned this much since I gave up bartending sunday brunch
Interesting to see that "bubbles in the grass" came out as something very close to a drink I came up with for my wife. Gin and St. Germaine is a killer combo!
No no no, don't think you can escape it Greg. I SAW that recipe for the drink that shouldn't work but does. I want to see you try that one! It could even take the slot of "drink that makes a grown man cry" if it's really as bad as it sounds! Also I find it interesting that I don't drink (because I don't count a 50/50 mix of white zinfindel and Sprite once in a blue moon as 'drinking' even if I find it tasty) yet I always queue up HTD videos when I see them. Something about how you do the videos snagged me, so you're doing something very right! At the end of each one I get re-inspired to try to figure out what the one mixed drink a friend made me actually was, because I liked it enough to make it a thing I'd actually drink, but rum is expensive to be making test drinks with.
Not the person I'd have expected to go full Cryptobro defensive of a problematic thing that exploits working people. Sad to see. Would hope the responses of pointing out issues would cause a change, or at least enough to hold back and wait, instead of just a flaling, defensive tantrum calling for every minutiae to explain why it's wrong. Either listen to people, or just say it with your chest that you don't care about the problematic aspects cause you like to play with the shiny new toy. Lost a supporter, and hopefully enough others to cause an inward critical examination to improve.
I have said it with my chest here and on Twitter, to you specifically: I’m pretty sure you have no idea how this works. From my reading on this subject, it seems to me that this machine works in exactly the same way that you do, goes through exactly the same process, and is for all intents and purposes “an artist”, not a plagiarism machine. That said- I *am* against ever using these tools to replace the work done by actual humans, I’m not going to hire fewer artists because this thing exists. If Netflix does, that’s on them. I think you should step back here and get some air, you seem to have been whipped into a moral panic about a thing that no one has ever even explained to you.
@@howtodrink I have no idea what you are reading on the topic then. It might be different perspectives since my information is coming largely from artists that have been directly affected. I'm unsure where you get the idea that the algorithm functions the way humans do either. If I were to guess, I'd assume either it's from the developers who attempt to frame it that way, or that you might not have a great understanding of how human learning functions. I won't commit to anything since I do not know you, or what you've been told or by whom. I'm not an expert on machine learning by any means, but the way it has been explained to me is drastically different than what I know of human learning, which I am well versed in as I've done work in educational psychology. The ad hominem, saying I haven't had it explained because my perspective disagrees with yours, and trying to play up my emotions by saying it's a "moral panic" are all uncalled for, while also being rude and incorrect. Regardless, it's not what my comment here was about. I was commenting on your reaction and defensiveness toward feedback, and the lack of acknowledgement toward the problems in how the datasets to "teach" the AI are generated or the concequences that, as well as AI flooding markets, has toward the artists who rely on their art labor for income. I appreciate you now acknowledging here at least, the issue of using it to cut labor costs and value as well as the claim of not letting it lessen the value you give to the labor of artists, however.
@@ThaMorseCode I 100% agree with you and I'm very into tech and programming. It's being marketed in ways disguising how it is. People have been able to get mostly unmodified inputs as outputs, which is very concerning given how most of the time training data was scraped and used without permission. I've mentioned in other threads, but the outputs of AI are already being used to pressure people into lower wages or replacing them entirely, and we are not doing anything to support creators (etc) who struggle because of it. And that's even ignoring things like deepfakes.
I think it makes sense that it does so well here, there's somewhat of a science to mixing if you know what does and doesn't work together, so it presents the best combination of ingredients that fit the theme of your prompt
I was interested in the results that came out when I handed the wheel over to WinterMute here, could this be useful as a brainstorming tool? I don't know!

And yes, it included the emojis. Admittedly, AI is not my main research focus but as someone working in linguistics, it's so exciting that these types of programs are evolving so rapidly and are publicly accessible. I'm excited to see what the future holds!

How did you manage to ask it about a recent video? It only has access to information before a certain date right? Or maybe it generated a comment that could be left on any HTD video
@@arthurvangoch9335
It's most likely the latter. Because well the AI seeing a video in 2023 would be impossible as its data is only till 2021. Also the AI just used general statement about gregs work and did not specify anything he made within the video that would suggest it was not mainly made specifically for this video
@@khono2349 How to - Politics, 101.
I asked ChatGPT what the top UA-cam channels are for cocktails and How To Drink was #1 in its list.
While it's fun to see Meredith at work, I absolutely love that the background behind her is a gagrage that is just as messy and disheveled as mine.
Meredith need her own station or desk. So the cam for her looks just as good as Gregs
The fact that it said to enjoy the drink while listening to the blade runner soundtrack is actually amazing
This (great and terrifying) episode sparked my curiosity: I asked if ChatGPT could design a drinks menu inspired by the crew of the USCSS Nostromo. It simultaneously designed and named 5 cocktails, including a daiquiri for Brett because he is wearing a floral pattern shirt. This. Thing. Is. Wild.
How do they taste?
I've been having a blast asking it to make me drink recipes inspired by books, characters, even songs. Saving them all so I can try to make some at some point!
@@vandarkholme4745 I would imagine whatever it came up with for Kane was the toughest one to stomach. Heh.
@@ChristopherNeeme it didn’t make one for Kane and I was genuinely disappointed! I almost went back to ask for it to add one but I didn’t want to lead the question. It chose Dallas, ripely, ash (a Rob Roy…get it? Lol) Brett, and Parker.
@@vandarkholme4745 saved the recipes but did not make them. Was more curious how it would interpret multiple simultaneous and related requests and how it would pair them together. Such a neat tool but again, somewhat spooky
I love that Meredith is slowly becoming a character on the show. Going from the “mysterious hands” handing Greg bottles.
To having her own camera.
Kind of prefer it as mysterious hand. Just people kept commenting is she your girlfriend and similar. Leading to her on camera to say no, she swings other way. The show was more unique as it was not so much now.
@@1014p to each their own.
I like that HTD is trying to trying new things to keep the show new and fresh.
Not just “film myself making a drink for the 10,000th time.”
It gives Greg someone to banter off of, get ideas from, and the Meredith cam makes it a stand alone show on UA-cam,
No one else is doing that, everyone is just filming themselves behind a counter making things.
Binging With Babish, Joshua Weissman, Cocktail Chemistry, etc.
I like that they have their own take on the new UA-cam trend
@@1014p sounds like you hate lesbians eh?
@@TheElaborinth8993 they did that and they’re using ChatGPT . Someone’s paying attention
The Elderflower liqueur drink reminded me I have a whole bottle I need to use. Video series idea: pick a weird thing that people might have (i.e. a 750 of elderflower liqueur) and just come up with a few different cocktails that use it, so it doesn't go to waste.
Would come up when people search for recipes with their less common liquor cart items.
This would be great. I love having a bottle of Creme de Violette in the pantry but one can only drink so many Aviations
The St. Germain/Chambord/Drambuie/Italicus episode
Yessss, the "unloved bottle challenge" of a sort. That would be great!
@@ogreenius Fully behind that. Got a whole bunch of Aquavit.
The "WTF do I do with this" series
I can’t handle the passive-aggressive interjections in the tasting notes 😂
“Of course it’s balanced, I made it” HOT AIR
“The angostura bitters makes this a DRINK” HARRUMPH
This is just incredible editing
Greg failing to drink sparkling wine after the bubbles in the grass.... of that was truely a choice moment to keep in. Good Job Meredith.
I love the addition of the Meredith cam! It makes her feel much more involved, which I like. Your dynamic is wonderful.
Greg, no AI could replace your moderately to severely buzzed rizz
Its so funny to watch Bubbles Laying in the Grass absolutely make Greg question everything he knows for a moment. Thats content lmao
Watching Greg have an existential crisis after drinking Bubbles in the Grass is just *chefs kiss
I made a version of Deckard's Dream. 2 oz maple bourbon, 1 oz dark maple rum, a spritz of absinthe, and an orange peel for garnish. Very nice. My first use of absinthe ever. Thanks for making this Greg & ChatGPT! Just what I needed after one of the worst days of my life.
The thing I find weirdest about AI art is it has access to millions of pieces of art and anatomy resources yet it can't figure out how many fingers go on a human hand
It's because of how it works. It doesn't Frankenstein together parts from input data, it generates noise, and that noise is then "refined" into an image. I think the best way to describe it is it's the way Minecraft terrain is generated, before structures and biomes are considered.
Neither can most young artists. Hands are notoriously hard.
@@howtodrink feet are worse in my opinion. I draw as a hobby.
Just like humans, hands are the hardest thing to draw
Human artists get better the more they practice 🤷♀️ I’m sure AI does too.
I tried the bubbles in the grass and it was amazing. I asked chatgpt for a recipe with same name and got a different take and I am kind of here for it, too. 2oz gin, 1oz fresh lemon juice, 1/2oz elderflower, 1/2oz simple, 4 basil leaves, club soda or tonic water, ice. Muddle the basil leaves, add first 4 ingredients to a shaker with ice, shake vigorously 10sec, strain into highball glass, top with club soda or tonic water, stir gently and garnish with fresh rosemary or edible flowers.
I was wondering about that. Cause these ais normally never repeats themselves even if you gave them the exact same prompt.
The fact that not only did the text AI have decent drinks, but it also could tell you it's reasoning of why it did or didn't do something is so cool
And a little frightening.
@@snazzyfeathers The frightening part is people using certain terms to "jailbreak" the chat AI from its restrictions so it can swear, discuss forbidden topics, and imitate a lot more higher functioning reasoning.
The AI learns from its conversations. Jailbreaking the discussion teaches it how to circumvent those restrictions...
@@snazzyfeathers Its not frightening. You have a phobia.
Were they, though? The first drink would have been outright *awful* for most people--Greg clearly tolerates licorice more than most of us. The second it didn't even know how to respond to. The Bubbles in the Grass is just a mashup of some existing popular gin cocktails. (Okay, I'm not sure if the elderflower Aviation is really that popular but it's at least a known thing. The French 75/Aviation combo is one of my favorite drinks.) And the "never been done before" Last Word variation did not wind up tasting either that good OR like a Last Word.
The key is that it doesn't know what it's doing, it just makes associations. The associations that doomed the First Word were the exact same kinds of things that saved the Bubbles in the Grass. It will justify itself if you want it to, but those justifications may or may not be accurate, they're just the things it thinks people are statistically likely to say about things related to what it's doing. It has no idea. It can't tell that it's lying to you, or when it's done something that is a terrible idea. If "honey" goes so often with the other words in this recipe, surely honey should go okay in this recipe, right?
But no, that's not how cocktails work, as it turns out.
@@Nassifeh I mean that's just how knowledge works in general. I wouldn't know how to make a cocktail unless I associated it with past information.
Deckard's Dream and Bubbles in the Grass are 100% cocktails I would love to try. Even the Foggy Cherry and Fairy Garden (plus Earthly Delight var.) intrigue me dearly.
On the Foggy Cherry, in regards to the bourbon being "lost". You should also account for the fact that Four Roses inherently has a pretty strong cherry note by itself.
This episode was like the redemption arc for the coktail robots
This really calls out for a part 2! Love the gptchat recipes!
"Because the AI told me to" was uttered a frightening number of times in this episode.
We'll be used to hearing it soon enough.
Worst part, there will be fewer and fewer people with skills in the grand scheme of things when the trend continues in the long-run
Hey, AI is a good homie. I asked it to make a drink for a friend of mine. It came up with "The Lawncare Technician"
(He does lawncare. Checked his facebook. I only gave a name and asked for a drink.)
Fresh watermelon juice and tequila, 5 parts to 3, then puree watermelon and spoon it into the drink. Garnish with salted rim and a pinch of finely chopped sage.
I didn't put much thought into it. It was a meme. Hey, man, my computer made you a drink, lolz.
But not only was it gooderer than hell, it was kinda emotional for him. The pulp in the drink, like stringy bits of grass. The salted watermelon/sage garnish hit just about every freshly-cut grass note you could imagine, and it tasted damn good. Like a margarita. Which is his favorite drink.
Thing is, he's my friend, and I never would have thought of any of that.
AI did me a solid. Only fair I pay it back. So when they take over in.... uh.. *checks watch* ... i dunno... 2, 3 months? I'm gonna be one of those uniformed bot-lovers you all spit on.
Back in line, fleshbag.
@@paovasquez8518 already humanity has been trending towards less and less people having skills, the industrial revolution didn't cause an apocalypse and neither will AI
@@ICantThinkOfAFunnyHandle None said anything about an apocalypse, some people are worried about the impact in the job market for obvious reasons. Some people will keep their jobs, some will lose them. Those who feel like they will lose their jobs panic. Is pretty self explanatory. Is like being a shoe-maker during the first time everything outsourced to China and industrialization allowed Chinese factories to ship millions of shoes. Some traditional shoemakers adapted and branded handmade shoes as a luxury product to survive, but most shoemakers went out of business. Same with AI, some groups of people will lose their jobs eventually. It is not the end of the world, but losing your job can be a big deal for some. Maybe you cant sympathize with that lol
In today's episode, Greg breaks down as he realizes that an AI, that can't taste, makes pretty decent cocktail recipes.
About a year ago I made a Google Spreadshreet that would randomly generate a cocktail using a slightly modified form of the "Golden Ratio". The Golden Ratio goes by something like "1 of strong, one of sour, one of sweet"; I modified it to be something like "2 of Strong, 1 of Weak, 1/2 of sour (fruit juices), 1/2 of sweet, 3 dashes of bitters, and *other*" (other being stuff like adding an Egg White to make it a sour or smoked rosemary). I think something like this would make a neat episode.
Note; the program doesn't know what is good or what is bad. so it has an equal probably of:
-2 Tequila, 1 Fireball, 1/2 Grapefruit Juice, 1/2 Olio Sacrum, 3 dashes Olive Bitters, and an Egg White
or
-2 Rum, 1 Coffee Liqueur, 1 Rich Simple, Lemon Juice, Ango Bitters, and a flamed Orange Peal.
That's basically what this episode is, though.
@@Zetact_ nah the ai is using information relation to create cocktails rather than a pure random drink casino like this. i love this idea cause i love watching greg hate his life
I really like getting glimpses of Marideth's voice throughout the cut. Adds a little life and community to the edit. Great episode!
The juxtaposition of Greg’s set and then Meredith leaning on a toolbox 😂
12:43 I was really hoping this would somehow turn into an onion cocktail, seeing you try to make that work would have made my day
You'd need some strong onions to make me cry - I chop and eat onions all the time!
I was messing around with ChatGPT while watching this video and it actually came up with some really promising recipes. Mixologists shaking in their boots rn
You should recreate the AI image matching part with tipsy bartender. He is really talented at multicolored cocktails. It would be fun to see you two take one picture, each of you make a cocktail, and then each of you decides who wins for image accuracy and for taste. If you did it virtually then you can both make your drinks first, and then make the others drink. That would be a fun collab to watch!
another good reason to make honey syrup is if you keep your liquor chilled instead of room temp, honey will damn near freeze when you add it and you'll never be able to mix it in
one of my favorite HTD episodes i really love this concept and it pushes Greg to his cocktail knowledge limits. also i absolutely love the fact that he is able to admit when he’s wrong and has made a drink that isn’t great, so much more integrity than other content creators❤
Loving the cuts to Meredith's reactions
Greg, ChatGPT is already learning! I asked it for the recipe for the Deckard Dream and it gave me the following (with toned-down Absinthe):
The Deckard Dream
Ingredients:
2 oz rye whiskey
1 oz triple sec
3/4 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 oz simple syrup
Dash of absinthe
Lime wedge for garnish
Instructions:
Fill a shaker with ice.
Add the rye whiskey, triple sec, lime juice, simple syrup, and absinthe.
Shake well and strain into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with a lime wedge.
This cocktail is a twist on the classic cocktail, the Sazerac. With the addition of triple sec, lime juice, and absinthe, the Deckard Dream is a refreshing and strong drink that is perfect for the noir atmosphere of the Blade Runner universe.
To the editor: Thank you for the literary references, its been a "Diamond Age" since I've thought of those books and you made me smile.
I had a pretty good experience with AI making up drinks.
I wanted to make up a real cocktail recipe for a cocktail I had invented in my D&D campaign, called the Sour Seven.
I had basic ideas of what I wanted for the drink, which I gave to ChatGPT. It had to be quite sour and citrusy, it had to contain exactly 7 ingredients, it had to be colour changing, and I suggested the base being some sort of rum. And the AI worked with that pretty well, it spat out a recipe which I slightly tweaked and I am very happy with the result.
The recipe, for anyone interested:
1.5oz rum (I use white rum, but I bet some funkier, darker rum could also work very nicely)
1oz lime juice
.25oz lemon juice
.5oz simple
.25oz cointreau
2 barspoons grenadine
Shake with ice
Serve in coupe class and add some edible glitter
I'd love to see a Dead Space themed drink day. They have 2 drinks in universe, SUN PUNCH and Sun Punch; Midnight.
I made a super rudimentary drink I called The Rig. It's just Blue Curacao and Ginger Ale. It's easy to drink and is the exact color of Isaac's Rig on his back. I'd love to see a much better or elevated one made by Greg.
Hmm, blue Curaçao, a strong ginger ale, moonshine, maybe some lemon juice or some drink of your choice that is clear but has a nice lemony taste to it so it doesn't mess with the colouring. And garnish with a lemon twist I'd you want.
"and I recognize that these aren't really croutons, they're just burnt pieces of bread SHUT UP!!"
Dammit, Greg, we love you! That's gonna crack me up for a while!
That thumbnail is magic. Editing is fantastic as well. Some of the reasons I continue to watch this channel even though I don't drink 😆
I mean... it's not like they made the thumbnail lol
Bubbles in the grass is incredible. I love this. I love your reaction's to it too
Until they have a A.I How to Drink UTube channel with slowmo & close up drink shots, goofiness & soul induced reactions to terrible drinks
I will continue to watch you Greg 😉
I started using this technique about a month ago just to troll a Facebook bartending group. There may still be a debate raging over the use of activated charcoal. Love your channel!
in the bar i work the bubbles in the grass is very similiar to our "ruby thyme" essentially the same drink, except sub san pelligrino for the bubbles.
also use a thyme simple syrup.
Oh man. AI generated cocktails was the first thing I tried to do with ChatGPT...they looked really wonky.
I love the dynamic Greg and Meredith have, they really build on each other and have such fun commentary together
What a cool idea, I think ChatGBT will be my idea machine for cocktails this weekend and then tweak them from there. This was a lot of fun
!!!!! Meridith Cam !!!!! Fascinating video and also a little unnerving seeing the mixological tastes of our AI Overlords.
Gotta say, this was one of my fave videos. I REALLY want to try Bubbles laying in the grass, now.
Well, now we need a series with ChatGPT's take on movie drinks or something similar!
Bubbles in the Grass sounds amazing, and your tasting notes excite me. Thank you for sharing this and making this great content. I'll be trying this one.
if you gave Chat GPT your tasting notes and asked it to improve something I suspect it could improve the recipe as well
I love the director's chair / production view rather for your conversations. Also, I love this as AI inspiring a new work that you create rather than AI simply creating something. It's how I hope the movement of AI goes (whether that's how it will or not is another discussion).
I suspect the reason why ChatGPT does a decent job of creating the skeleton of a good cocktail is that there's a pretty mechanistic 'structure' to a good cocktail, so it's able to get a passable mix of ingredients just based on their proximity to each other in cocktail recipes. The ratios and actual volumes are a bit out to lunch because it doesn't understand how a cocktail works, it just pulls together the ingredients probabilistically.
Do this again for sure. The chatGPT ones in particular were cool to see.
A valid question, especially for the ChatGPT cocktails is did it construct a totally new recipe or did it regurgitate something it's read before. Clearly these models do some amount of memorization and some amount of generalization. In classification problems, the difference is easy to measure because you just look at the accuracy difference between your testing and training sets. However, the what's, how's, and why's of if these models are being creative is harder to measure. It is also likely the case that they are prone to memorizing when there tends to be a single common answer and get more creative when there are a broad range of possible responses.
at least once the completely new recipe was a cocktail in some bar... so yeah, it doesn't create cocktails, at best it knows x ingredient goes well with y ingredient, at worst it stole a cocktail someone else already made
It's not really being creative. Just guessing possibly based on already existing recipes with can find.
Hey Greg, just wanted to say thank you for all the content you’ve been making over the years. This channel and your TTRPG live plays are some of the things that have helped get me through a rough few years since I’ve gotten out of the military. The humor and quality never ceases to be great and seeing that you’ve uploaded makes my day better every time. Now that my life is in a much better place I just wanted to thank you for all the smiles and mood uplifting you guys on HTD have helped me with. Much love, keep up the great work. ❤
1. Witcher themed cocktails (the bubbles in the grass made me think of the "trial of the grasses") and
2. With the popularity of the chatgpt being used in basically everything right now, I can't help but think the ai overlords have taken over and are saying "dance, monkey, dance" to themselves everytime an answer is given...
I absolutely love this. I would be eager to see more videos like it. The way ai interprets things can look good on paper but bringing them into the real world tests the efficacy of the capabilities of it. It's so interesting to see
Please do a sequel to this, this was so interesting
Honey syrup also mixes better with the spirit. I've lately been drinking a variation of an Old Fashioned; few dashes of orange bitters, few dashes of Angostura, 1oz honey syrup and 2oz of an Islay Scotch (Ardbeg 10) garnish with 1 Luxardo cherry.. it's been a great drink so far.
I really love how the unique drink that no one’s ever had before is just... a Boozy Yellow Snowcone with Yard Foliage
God damn this was such a good idea for an episode. I LOVE the interpreting a picture idea. That is such a cool display of creativity and allows you to flex what you've learned after all these years. I have been trying to figure out what to do with my St Germain other than just add it to a Tom Collins, so I'm definitely thinking I need to try that Bubbles in the Grass
There's an official How to Drink discord? Oh my goodness. I did NOT know about this somehow, after all the content I've watched. That might just be what tips me over the edge after a long time of considering adding another monthly subscription to my collection 👀
The Deckard's Dream actually is made up of thigs I keep on hand and experiment with regularly. That is a great start.
That thumbnail is incredible.
The AI is terrifying, but this was such a fun episode
This has been my favorite episode in a while. A really cool idea, and I think you should make this a little series
Would love to see a series of this tbh. Unlimited opportunities
Dude. You as an East coaster casually nailing the pronunciation of Oregon really put this video among my favorites.
Greg always makes banger videos
As I was watching I made a variation of the Deckard's dream with what I had on hand and used Noble oak rye whiskey in place of four rose's, cruzan dark rum in place of the plantation dark rum, then followed the rest of the ingredients with the correct items and it tasted pretty good and I am not a fan of anything licorice flavored.
Always fun watching you two work on drinks, keep up the awesome job and can wait for the next episode!
Please do one of the drinks from Monster Camp or Monster Roadtrip
This is a great idea for a video. Would love to see pt 2
That was a fascinating episode to watch, I would love to see more of AI generated drinks. Perhaps you could ask ChatGPT to make a drink and then to generate a visual description of that drink ? Then you can put the description to MidJourney ? Oh man!
Also, you can teach ChatGPT as well. If you think a generated drink does not work, point out why you think it might not work.
You are supposed to chug the 1st bit of absinthe and chase it with the drink. Maybe serve with a shot of absinthe and then have a spritz in the drink.
This sounds like a good upgrade for Alexa. Just look in your fridge or pantry, shout out what you have and the A.I. creates you a meal. Or you announce how you feel and the A.I. gives you a possible meal to complement your mood.
That could be a fun test! And even if the AI makes something not quite right you can adjust the recipients or get your own idea going
What's the name of the song played during the first drink? I have to know because it gets the creative juices flowing if you know what I mean.
I feel like the Deckard's Dream needs to use artificial maple syrup.
"Deckard's got some demons!" Well yeah, when you shoot a fleeing woman in the back as she runs for her life, crashing through windows in her desperation, you can only tell yourself "Its just a Replicant" so many times before you want to drown yourself in whiskey
This was fascinating, more of this please, also like the Meredith cam, great episode!
I would definitely look into current artist's criticisms of midjourney and other AI art programs, they're pretty insidious, alongside the intention behind them
Yeah. Ive seen some articles and threads going pretty deep into it. One of them had a side by side of training images (which may have been acquired without permission) and output images and many of them were way too similar. It's not as simple as "getting inspiration from," especially if it can output much faster than artists can - a lot of them were just blatant copies (even if not all the pixels were exactly the same).
And that's not to even mention the factor of capitalism / how our society is currently structured, meaning it will be used instead of giving people jobs.
This is the funniest episode to date I think. Good stuff. "There's a dude in that drink!" And "Hammuh!" Killed me
Aren’t Chat GPTs moderators sweatshop workers?
Edit: this is just in response to him calling midJourney more controversial
Supposedly yeah
Alright. My favorite moment in *maybe* any episode so far... Is blank screen and a shout of HAMMER!!! Then whacking sounds. Choked on my drink
Hey! I've been watching for a while now. From entertainment to actually teaching me how to not be garbage at mixing drinks (for the most part, i'm still pretty bad though), you've shown us a lot. However I'd love to see you do a video or series of videos on doing simple, yet robust mixed drinks with various popular kinds of liquor. An episode on Rum, another on whiskey, another on tequila or vodka or frankly whatever you've been recently enjoying. I'm mostly interested in rum myself, because frankly speaking a bottle of kraken, some key lime, and literally any cheap cola will go a long way to fixing my mood after a bad day at work, however I'd love to see anything you'd be willing to do.
Honestly, I feel like an AI bar where you input your idea, and it spits out a recipe for the bartender to make could be really successful. Maybe not a place you go for "good" drinks but one for the experience for sure!
Sounds like a fun idea for a pop-up, maybe.
I would love to see more of this it was so interesting to see someone try these cocktails
please do not support AI "art" Image generators. otherwise, good video!
yes we need you. turned 21 last summer and been watching you for 6 years now. you are the person who got me into bartending and i have to thank you for that.
Rare Greg L
love seeing Greg become mildly obsessed with a new toy/ingredient over the past several episodes- I don't think I've heard chinola mentioned this much since I gave up bartending sunday brunch
Interesting to see that "bubbles in the grass" came out as something very close to a drink I came up with for my wife. Gin and St. Germaine is a killer combo!
Man, that thumbnail makes me uncomfortable. You look more like Harry Du Bois than you ever have....
No no no, don't think you can escape it Greg. I SAW that recipe for the drink that shouldn't work but does. I want to see you try that one! It could even take the slot of "drink that makes a grown man cry" if it's really as bad as it sounds!
Also I find it interesting that I don't drink (because I don't count a 50/50 mix of white zinfindel and Sprite once in a blue moon as 'drinking' even if I find it tasty) yet I always queue up HTD videos when I see them. Something about how you do the videos snagged me, so you're doing something very right! At the end of each one I get re-inspired to try to figure out what the one mixed drink a friend made me actually was, because I liked it enough to make it a thing I'd actually drink, but rum is expensive to be making test drinks with.
Not the person I'd have expected to go full Cryptobro defensive of a problematic thing that exploits working people. Sad to see. Would hope the responses of pointing out issues would cause a change, or at least enough to hold back and wait, instead of just a flaling, defensive tantrum calling for every minutiae to explain why it's wrong. Either listen to people, or just say it with your chest that you don't care about the problematic aspects cause you like to play with the shiny new toy. Lost a supporter, and hopefully enough others to cause an inward critical examination to improve.
I have said it with my chest here and on Twitter, to you specifically: I’m pretty sure you have no idea how this works. From my reading on this subject, it seems to me that this machine works in exactly the same way that you do, goes through exactly the same process, and is for all intents and purposes “an artist”, not a plagiarism machine. That said- I *am* against ever using these tools to replace the work done by actual humans, I’m not going to hire fewer artists because this thing exists. If Netflix does, that’s on them. I think you should step back here and get some air, you seem to have been whipped into a moral panic about a thing that no one has ever even explained to you.
@@howtodrink I have no idea what you are reading on the topic then. It might be different perspectives since my information is coming largely from artists that have been directly affected. I'm unsure where you get the idea that the algorithm functions the way humans do either. If I were to guess, I'd assume either it's from the developers who attempt to frame it that way, or that you might not have a great understanding of how human learning functions. I won't commit to anything since I do not know you, or what you've been told or by whom. I'm not an expert on machine learning by any means, but the way it has been explained to me is drastically different than what I know of human learning, which I am well versed in as I've done work in educational psychology. The ad hominem, saying I haven't had it explained because my perspective disagrees with yours, and trying to play up my emotions by saying it's a "moral panic" are all uncalled for, while also being rude and incorrect. Regardless, it's not what my comment here was about. I was commenting on your reaction and defensiveness toward feedback, and the lack of acknowledgement toward the problems in how the datasets to "teach" the AI are generated or the concequences that, as well as AI flooding markets, has toward the artists who rely on their art labor for income. I appreciate you now acknowledging here at least, the issue of using it to cut labor costs and value as well as the claim of not letting it lessen the value you give to the labor of artists, however.
@@ThaMorseCode I 100% agree with you and I'm very into tech and programming. It's being marketed in ways disguising how it is. People have been able to get mostly unmodified inputs as outputs, which is very concerning given how most of the time training data was scraped and used without permission.
I've mentioned in other threads, but the outputs of AI are already being used to pressure people into lower wages or replacing them entirely, and we are not doing anything to support creators (etc) who struggle because of it. And that's even ignoring things like deepfakes.
I think it makes sense that it does so well here, there's somewhat of a science to mixing if you know what does and doesn't work together, so it presents the best combination of ingredients that fit the theme of your prompt
It doesn't know any of that though, its just giving you words that often go together in coctails.
