    Lookin’ at public posts is not theft. Any model that can recreate a particular input is broken. They only work properly when they generalize.

    Everything becomes an excuse for abusive spying. Ban the abuse, for any reason.

    Efficiency will improve once budgets shrink. Scaling up up up had immediate results and limited competition. It’s not a necessary trend. More training on small models works better, and all of this started on desktop hardware.

    Cartoonists also complained about CGI and Flash. Anyway - generating from scratch is an overblown demo. This tech modifies images. It works better when you actually film stuff or draw stuff, and then modify that. (And wait until some program only does tweening, then see if artists still yearn for the good old days.)

    This is not going to un-happen. It’s already here. If we destroyed it all, individual ultranerds would recreate it from descriptions. The second time around, they might not tell you they’re doing it… or share.

      That’s it. I don’t put copyright notices at the bottom of my comments, I write them to be read, I’m finished with them shortly after I hit the post button

      If any person learns to write in Australian English from my stuff, great. If a machine does, also great
