I don't mind paying for AI services, but I want it to be transparent. I want to see the source code, the training data and so on. What I'm paying for should be the massive compute infrastructure needed to train and maintain the model, but something like this is way too important and powerful to be a 'blackbox' SAAS product.
If we think we have problems with Facebook or Google's hold over us, this has the potential to be much much worse if we get the design of the products and the business models wrong.
- visarga 4y agoStabilityAI's solution to provide base models everyone can fine-tune seems more useful. APIs are too restrictive and expensive.
- jmfldn 4y agoExactly. I see this being eclipsed by the Stable Diffusion equivalent for ChatGPT. You could then have cloud providers offering whatever specialised compute you need to easily run one of these as a server. Host your own instance in other words. Obviously a lot of people will just want a simple SAAS product still, we won't want or need everyone, hosting their own apps (too energy intensive for a start). This can then be a SAAS offering, but backed by the same open source software.
