Also frustrating to be constantly patronized that the negative consequences will definitely be outweighed by positive ones, pinky promise. Right now we have threats of job insecurity in basically every industry, Noah's Arc levels of spam, the undermining of democracy as a functioning form of government, and insane energy demands and environmental consequences. But on the plus side you can outsource the entire design team to one guy tweaking SD outputs and you can use an LLM to summarize the spam generated by a different LLM, so all's well that ends well I guess.

Like we could have continued this in a research setting for longer to really get a sense for how to deal with these things, but folks wanted to productize because of profit potential backed by incredible hype.
