I agree, it can be incredibly frustrating at times. My rule is that if it “compiles” in my brain as an understood idea then i accept it. I also push back a lot (sometimes it points…

Its unfortunate that there’s mode collapse around what the consensus “best way” to use these things are. It’s too bad we didn’t have a period where these things were great teachers…

My conspiracy theory hat is that somehow investors with a stake in openai as well is sabotaging, like they did when kicking emad out of stabilityai

The default of making a public discord for your project/company always seemed like a bad idea anyway. It’ll always devolve into some drama or distracting overhead to moderate it

I definitely think they’ve nailed the personality better than others too. Gemini and grok are always paragraphs and paragraphs of text to sift through for something that with opena…

I’ve moved to more closed source projects for this reason (just for the fun of coding rather than sharing). Though I suspect they still use private github repos in their deals to m…

I was in management i probably also wouldn’t like my designers to use AI. I pay them good money to draw original pieces and everyone can tell and it looks generic when AI is used. …

68% felt like they were being watched but didn’t feel safe to admit so because they didn’t trust the report were truly anonymous

If price per compute keeps going down we effectively keep having moore’s law for parallel compute like GPUs. (Just get better at making ML models that don’t have as big of a commun…

Release it, fine. There’s been lots of fine tuned and continued trained SD models. Just don’t call it “1.5” which is the specific label for the model stability is training internal…

Well if that’s the case that’s still a pretty shitty thing to do on runways part. Just be curteous to what stability’s needs are, keep good business relations. Weird behaviour and …

Comment #33282398
Sounds to me like runway released it without consulting stability, called it “1.5” - which according to the license they’re allowed to do but pretty scammy since emad had hyped a m…

I’m seeing a lot of R&D solely focused on giving them the chance to extract rent through future silly things like buying artificially scarce houses in fbs metaverse. I’m barely see…

That this would have come out was totally predictable and expected to most in the know people in the ML world (we basically had proto versions of it summer 2021). Not really the un…

Only downside with this is that each mesh takes like 5 hours to generate (on a v100 too). Obviously it’ll speed up but we’re far from the panacea

Comment #33114035
These things take months and months to train (hardly fast progress). Any new model that’s coming out is generally known in the atmosphere (not unpredictable) and these applications…

Well they even have a “downlod model” so yep you definitely can. I wouldn’t think of this as an amazing panacea though, since once everyone has access to it that suddenly means wha…
