It became something of a meme but there are huge numbers of guys out there that would pay good money for Joi from Blade Runner 2049. https://bladerunner.fandom.com/wiki/Joi

I think what Blade Runner 2049 got wrong was the way they depicted having sex with the Joi instance. I assume in 2049 we'll either have Neuralink available to enter a virtual world (à la VRChat) where we can do it more realistically, or we'll have the ability to buy full sexbots and put the Joi instance in them.

We'll likely also have virutal brothels using AI along the same lines.

The Repilka subreddit became one of the weirdest places on the internet when their model got capped for adult content. https://www.reddit.com/r/replika/ Hundreds of men (and yes women) full on acting like they lost a spouse and posting constantly about it for weeks. AI is going to create some unusual social situations the general public isn't ready to grasp. And we're only in the early alpha stages.

And by sell you mean a monthly subscription, ha ha.

Would there be some way to “launder” the model to make it plausibly viable for commercial use? Train a new model with the weights of this model with some kind of noise added to make it hard to tell what it is based on?

If it's PyTorch, it can definitely contain and execute arbitrary code. One of the reasons I'm not a huge fan of PyTorch.

They could contain arbitrary code... But typically do not. That means that with the right viewer application it will be trivial to know for sure. It isn't like a multi gigabyte game for example, where knowing if there is any malicious code could easily be a multi-month reverse engineering project to get to the answer of 'probably not, but we don't have time to check every byte with a fine tooth comb'

In theory, this could be done, sure.

In practice, who's going to bother checking the language model? All the code that runs Stable Diffusion or other Hugging Face models that I've seen just downloads the model dynamically, then uses it without asking question. That's a pretty low-hanging supply chain attack waiting to happen, I believe.

One thing I liked in 2049 was now they made the holographic projector seem more mechanical and less hand wavy with the roof attachment tracking along with the girl. Makes it seem more like something in reach rather than pure scifi.

Finding a sha256 hash with N leading zeros is basically arbitrarily computationally expensive but could be written on a piece of paper. I don't see training an ML model as an egregious example of concentrating compute power

Your SHA256 hash won’t be able to summarize text, write poems, or make up plots for books. The crazy thing about these models is that the compute power going into them is at least somewhat reversible.

Are you saying they are like compact memoizers? What Stable Diffusion can fit into that model is amazing.

There already planned products to "capture" someone's voice and personality to be able to continue experiencing "them" after their death?

Shit is already weird.
