they’re junk food-y visuals too. i don’t know how to describe it beyond looking like a cross between fisher-price and a light dose of shrooms.

why'd this get downvoted? at least some of the countries there have populations who are vastly less values-compatible with Good Things we believe in. ceteris paribus we should expe…

this wouldn't actually fix anything because that's not how politics works. politicians set constraints that maximize their PR points then the job of everyone with a brain is left t…

Neumann still retains an incredible level of confidence and respect from many of the people who know him. never met the man personally but it's kind of a trip. even from people who…

scale. producing that level of return on that amount of capital is nigh on impossible. this makes them structurally worse investors, combined with a fixation on bubbles and unfortu…

i'm glad they're happy but that sounds actually terrible. infinitely worse than living on a large plot of land with trees and a garden, having a nice shop to work in, a comfortable…

not particularly, no. while the "boomers ruined the economy" trope isn't all right, neither is it all wrong. they effectively mortgaged much of the future value of the country and …

you're acting as though an immigrant from any of the dense population centers has the same impact as a native-born child on the culture and economy. that is false. sometimes it's f…

this is probably half of what shodan is used for lmao

Before everyone shoots schadenfreude at the Evil Monopoly Man Bigtechs, please remember this is the same government that is trying valiantly to ban/backdoor E2E encryption. It shou…

Theoretically could be considered union-busting. But since the company was just acquired (likely sold due to poor performance and almost certainly being reorganized) there is very …

productivity is what feeds and powers the country. it's amazing how many people forget that no amount of financial engineering will permanently abstract the physical output of good…

no, this is a lousy analogy because there is a clear harm to others in the case of theft. we've tried regulating other difficult to regulate things where the harm is unclear or ind…

on the contrary, it's proof that popular support for something can overcome even what was a fairly brutal crackdown by large men with large guns and quasi-military strength. people…

right, this is why i'm specifically questioning your assertion on copyright law. you weren't talking about ai displacing jobs generally, just copyright law - which doesn't protect …

can you explain why you think obsoleting the majority of commercial artists will "throw a wrench in our entire economy"? since you're addressing copyright law i'm assuming that's a…

as mentioned controlnet and inpainting help. my guess is img2img will improve to fill this edit step.

ahh never saw that but explains it. thanks

...why is #1 bald? this probably sounds like a weird observation but we don't generally draw the generic guy as bald so it seems intentional.

I agree. I'm kind of surprised more unions haven't taken responsibility for opening up co-ops. They have lots of money to do it, it's pro-worker, and it enables them to own the mea…

Probably a better candidate for local applications? Guessing this was a trial balloon against larger models coming though.

Bc that's not as good a comparison? Foundation models are better compared to each other. Can apply vicuna/guanaco/orca/sharegpt/whatever data to it and then do more of an apples-to…

a lot of nations started with groups of men with guns who went from there. a solid millitarized populace is the bootloader for a potential shake-up of government or splintering off…
