This is one of the most important moments in all of art history. Millions of people just got unconditional access to the state-of-the-art in AI text-to-image for absolutely free less the cost of hardware. I have an Nvidia GPU myself and am thrilled beyond belief with the possibilities that this opens up. Am planning on doing some deep dives into latent-space exploration algorithms and hypernetworks in the coming days…
DALL-E 2 just got smoked. Anyone with a graphics card isn't going to pay to generate images, or have their prompts blocked because of the overly aggressive anti-abuse filter, or have to put up with the DALL-E 2 "signature" in the corner. It makes me wonder how OpenAI is going to work around this because this makes DALL-E 2 a very uncompetitive proposition. Except, of course, for people without graphics cards, but it'…
The most interesting part, to me, of a release like this is the amount of "please don't abuse this technology" pleading. No licence will ever stop people from doing things that the licence says they can't. There will always be someone who digs into the internals and makes a version that does not respect your hopes and dreams. It's going to be bad. As I see it, within a couple years this tech will be so widespread and…
They just have to cover their asses, any sane dev would make the same license due to the power of this tech.
On some level I can't stop laughing since OpenAI really got smoked. "OpenAI" my ass, this is what open TRULY means!
Cheering for these devs.

So is there a simple way to do this online? I have no dedicated gpu and won’t buy one just for this. We‘d pay.

Earlier quoted context omitted.
That license from top to bottom is distilled "tell me you don't know anything about art without telling me you don't know anything about art". Interesting art challenges its audience. But even the most boring art will still offend some-- it's the nature of art that the viewer brings their own interpretation, and some people bring an offensive one.
I dunno. All I see is necessary ass covering. They're just saying anyone who does these objectionable things did so against our terms.
Hmmm.
