It has a non-commercial cc-by-nc-4.0 license, I would guess the only way to use this in production is to use Nvidias data centers to host it? Or are there other ways?

Not a lawyer, not legal advice, but... the legal status quo is that neural network outputs are not copyrightable. They are currently considered not made by humans nor considered a derivative work from the training material / network weights (assuming it's not regurgitating copyrighted material verbatim). The cc-by-nc-4.0 license applies to the network weights. The only thing non-commercial about the license is that i…

First time I read this interpreation regarding CC-BY-NC model weights, are there any sources to back it?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

No, I never said that. But you already know that. The robot in this case is me holding a smart phone.

Is that faster than just determining by touch what type of garment something is? Or is this about sorting by color?

Its for sorting by color/print. Some things you remember instantly by touch, others not so much.

Reminder that Nvidia is still the only company making any money out of the "AI revolution".

i have yet to hear of anyone actually using AI for something properly only exception im excited about is the non-main characters from video games, where a lot of the random NPCs, can now actually bring some more fun to the game.

I run in production a system that uses LLM translation and summerization from hundreds of sources in dozens of languages. Users are extremely satisfied by the results that are far cheaper and far higher quality than what was available before

Not a lawyer, but work with lawyers a lot, and this type of rules-lawyering doesn't tend to work in the legal profession. Consult a lawyer before trying any of this.

Wrong Midjourney is profitable. All the acquired startups (i.e. Streamlit or MosaicML) who made millions per employee "made money" for the people who cared.

Midjourney is one, but the others are not. Plenty of people “made money” at Twitter, but the company is a money pit.

OP was likely talking about profitability.

FWIW I wouldn’t really count streamlit as an ai company

This sounds really cool - so you point it at individual items of clothing and it reads out the type of clothing and colour?

Do you have any more info or links about the setup?

I think the only relevant part to note here is that this model showed improved text-only performance after multimodal training. Wonder if this translates to Llama models also ? Is it possible to extend Llama 3.1 405b with multi-modal training to create another SOTA large model ?

Twitter was (mildly) profitable.

Claiming no one is using MLMs “properly” despite the various scientific and industrial use cases (vision systems, robots, protein folding, drug simulation, etc) while being “excited” for something as pathetically trivial as a text generator with a text-to-speech tacked on for your mass-produced open world games. Truly peak HN.
