NOO you can't just do what you want on your computing device!
- knowaveragejoe 2y agoBut it's not on your computing device?
- TMWNN 2y agoDo you think those who immediately denounce Grok's ability to do this would make the distinction, or care?
- curtisblaine 2y agoIt's a computing device you pay to use.
- jncfhnb 2y agoFor access to a model that is freely available with fewer guardrails. It’s a tool for people who don’t know what they’re doing.
- IAmNotACellist 2y agoYou could say it's not my software even when it runs locally, or my model weights. I'm just licensing them from the owner. Doesn't make sense to me, in my free-as-in-freedom computing worldview.
- lovethevoid 2y agoHuh? This isn’t free as in freedom. This is a server they control and can alter at any point. You can use alternative services to manage your own servers if you want for “free-as-in-freedom”.
- Yoric 2y agoI believe that GP was speaking of Stable Diffusion-style architectures + models, which you can run on your own hardware.
- padjo 2y agoDo you really think you want live in a world where people can do whatever they want on their computers?
- brink 2y agoDo you really think you want to live in a world where people disagree with you? Not saying that cyber-crime is a good thing, just trying to illustrate that we shouldn't be gauging what should be possible by what you want and don't want.
- padjo 2y agoWhat? I’m delighted to live in a world where people disagree with me. It would be tremendously dull otherwise. We design the world around what large majorities of “reasonable” people want all the time. I don’t understand what point you’re trying to make here at all.
- IAmNotACellist 2y agoYes Because I know the alternative and I've seen the motivations of people trying to tell me what to do "for my own good"
- padjo 2y agoOk, you do realise people commit crimes using computers yes?
