- herval 2y agoa website that literally just hosts models with $5m in funding is plenty. It's not like they're doing foundation model research or anything novel, yet they nabbed a good amount of money for surfing the AI wave
- Der_Einzige 2y agoPony diffusion imho qualifies as “foundation model research” and while it’s not directly Civit.AI, it’s indirectly them.
- herval 2y agoThis is like saying chatgpt is “indirectly” made by Reddit…
- Der_Einzige 2y agoIt 100% is though, unironically.
- herval 2y agoIf you say so
- beeflet 2y agoSure, but I don't think civit.ai leans into the "novel/powerful/dangerous" element in its marketing. It just seems to showcase the convenience and sharing factor of its service.
