Don’t you like regulatory capture?

Even_Adder ,

Are there many stupid and petty people in education? 🤔

Even_Adder ,

This article by Kit Walsh, a senior staff attorney at the EFF, and this one by Katherine Klosek, the director of information policy and federal relations at the Association of Research Libraries are a good place to start.

The Game is Afoot (lemmy.world)

A bit ago I posted this image and a sharp-eye named Even_Adder (not sure exactly how attributes work on Voyager yet) saw that something was written to it. I dug around a little, but couldn’t come up with the answer, so I figured what the hell and sent them an email. The Institute has responded....

👀

Even_Adder ,

Sounds good.

Even_Adder ,

I thought you couldn’t buy Spot, only rent?

Even_Adder ,

I see.

Even_Adder ,

Group chats.

Even_Adder ,

I think you’re falling for the overblown fearmongering headline, and pointless memes is a great reason to make things.

Even_Adder ,

There’s something written to it.

Even_Adder ,

Damn, good effort. Hopefully someone knows.

Even_Adder ,

Can it do everything the old Atlas could do?

Even_Adder ,

That makes sense. The new form factor alone is impressive.

Even_Adder ,

Pretty shoddy work. Lots of scenes that couldn’t support it were frame interpolated.

Even_Adder ,

It takes a lot of knowledge and work to get good results. Most people don’t do that.

Even_Adder ,

That video is really old, and I saw it when It released. He isn’t really an expert on the subject.

Even_Adder ,

People are allowed to watch the way they want. Being personally offended people are willing to accept tradeoffs to get it isn’t a point, and it doesn’t hold water.

This is also outdated enough to have missed several advancements in recent years, making it even more incorrect.

Even_Adder ,

People are starting to figure it out. It’s a great, ever-improving set of tools, and maybe you can change your opinion too.

This dude looks like Tom Scott. https://i.imgur.com/H8k1dH4.jpg

They put their own dark pattern at the end of the video.

Even_Adder ,

They cover more than just dark patterns in case you still want to watch.

Adobe’s ‘Ethical’ Firefly AI Was Trained on Midjourney Images (www.bloomberg.com)

When Adobe Inc. released its Firefly image-generating software last year, the company said the artificial intelligence model was trained mainly on Adobe Stock, its database of hundreds of millions of licensed images. Firefly, Adobe said, was a “commercially safe” alternative to competitors like Midjourney, which learned by...

Even_Adder ,

Supplementary synthetic data increases the quality of the model.

Even_Adder ,

It’s fine as long as it’s not the majority.

Even_Adder ,

I’m just talking about synthetic images affect model quality.

Even_Adder ,

That’s what I’m saying. Synthetic images can help your model look better, but if you’re aiming for “realistic” output, but synthetic images are fundamentally not real images and too many will bias your model in a slightly different direction.

Even_Adder ,

I remember this from the first time it was posted.

Wikipedia is gauging interest for an extension that uses AI to see if any claim is cited on Wikipedia (meta.wikimedia.org)

A prototype is available, though it's Chrome-only and English-only at the moment. How this'll work is you select some text and then click on the extension, which will try to "return the relevant quote and inference for the user, along with links to article and quality signals"....

Even_Adder ,

Chrome extension only?

Even_Adder ,

It’s a lot less than playing a video game. My fans on my GPU spin up harder and for more sustained time whenever I’m playing.

Even_Adder ,

That’s not what I replied to though.

Even_Adder ,

The person I replied to was only commenting on people how much it cost for people to “refine prompts” which isn’t where the problems lie. People at home on consumer hardware can’t be the ones causing issues at scale, which is what I pointed out. We weren’t talking about training costs at all.

Besides, the GPU clusters models are trained on are far outnumbered by non-training datacenters, which also use water for cooling. It seems weird to bring that up as an issue while not talking about the whole cloud computing industry. I’ve never seen any numbers on how much these GPU clusters spend versus conventional use, If you have any I’d like to see them.

Even_Adder ,

It’s a problem with models right now. Parts of your prompt contaminate each other, making it hard to make a long prompt and get all the separate elements you want.

This paper proposes a solution to this issue.

It is a model issue, just that some models solved it.

Even_Adder ,

I read “Had this little charging girl for 5+months now”. If that were the case, she might need a battery replacement,

Even_Adder ,

What does that mean, and isn’t that still something people can employ for their creative process?

Even_Adder ,

How that preclude these models from being creative? Randomness within rules can be pretty creative. All life on earth is the result of selection on random mutations. Its output is way more structured and coherent than random noise. That’s not a good comparison at all.

Either way, generative tools are a great way for the people using to create with, no model has to be creative on its own.

Even_Adder ,

How is intentionality integral to creativity?

Even_Adder ,

I was asking about creativity, not art. It’s possible for something to be creative and not be art.

Even_Adder ,

I don’t think all creativity requires intentionality. Some forms of creativity are the accumulation of unintentional outcomes, like when someone sets out to copy a thing, but due to mistakes or other factors outside their control end up with something unique to what they were going for.

Even_Adder ,

How can it be creative to destroy outcomes? Destruction is the opposite of creativity.

Even_Adder ,

But you can still be creative if you keep every outcome, it would be very hard to prove creativity if you discard everything. The one could argue you’re creative the moment you select something.

Even_Adder ,

The way you describe how these models work is wrong. This video does a good job of explaining how they work.

Even_Adder ,

God, I wish AMD and Intel could get their shit together.

Even_Adder ,

It’s not marketing, AMD sucks for ML stuff. I don’t just play games. Everything is harder, with fewer features and less performant with AMD.

Even_Adder ,

Yeah. Linux boys on AMD are eatin’ good.

Even_Adder ,

Support Open Source developers. Corporations aren’t the only game in town, they just want you to think that.

An easy way to get started with local LMs is LM Studio and Stable Diffusion for Images.

Even_Adder ,

I had the demo disc with the trailer for this. I played it to help get to sleep.

Even_Adder ,

Why did they make it boring on purpose?
