The biggest corollary to AI is the printing press, whose invention was followed by decades of religious wars because its “early adopters” used it as to mass distribute the violently anti-Semitic ravings of Martin Luther. Eventually, we arri

Do I genuinely believe that startups funneling millions of dollars to politicians in campaign donations, speaking fees, and giving them plush gigs when they leave office is a legalized form of bribery? Yes. Is most of this illegal in other

I made a reasonable argument: the intent with Stable Diffusion is to do the same thing that many startups have done, i.e. break the law enough that you establish a dominant market position/raise a ton of money, but create enough extern

No, I don’t care about the lawsuit because the intent with releasing SD was to get sued and then lock in a monopoly based on big players being the only ones capable of rights enforcement. See my other comment. > I don’t really care about

I don’t really care about the copyright argument as it relates to human learning because I think this is all a Napster-style false flag by capital owners to enclose ALL data on the internet. The intent isn’t to argue about these models from

Yeah, I’ve already been running llama.cpp locally, but not found it to perform at the level attested in the comment (30B model as a chat bot on commodity hardware). 13B runs okay, but inference appears generally too slow on to do anything u
