Much like my fears about bluetooth connected cars being hacked to crash on the highway, it turns out that - by and large - nobody wants to kill me (or at least, not badly enough to do anything about it).

Ah yes the nobody wants to do it to me excuse. Until you piss off the wrong person and you suddenly crash into the railing and die in an 'accident'. In a more Orwellian world. It can be used to assassinate dissidents or individuals who speak out against authoritarian regimes. It's just a tool in a box, but it's one that's simple, easy to use, and leaves no evidence.

I think a standard model is not very useful. We are doing similar but with your own custom model as an api https://88stacks.com I do like their real-time api though and we are moving towards that as well. It just costs a lot more to do in real-time.

There's a huge difference between diffusion models that were built to be run on commodity hardware and the huge autoregressive models like GPT. You can't even run GPT3 on the cloud without some specialized interconnect.

Wait you have to peer directly with their network or something?

No, you can’t build a cluster of GPUs to run GPT without special very fast interconnect like InfiniBand. Stable Diffusion can run on a single GPU, like 3090 .

Saw a great toot yesterday. Startups and media business are looking to make a windfall on AI generated art, music, code, writing, and other services. The payment models will be subscriptions, pay per use, and other models that make more money the more content is produced. But there's still no AI (with associated mechanics) that can fold laundry. (I think the latter would be really useful.)

I just want some AI that can cut my hair, exactly the way I want it.

What for, you can use AI to make it look like it on any picture, no scissors required!

a design AI would be mint kind of worrying for people who work in the space!

As I sad: UX is more important. We will focus on bringing better experience for the users. Managing thousands of boxes and combinations is not a design work goal. Solving a problem for the users is.

>> Monetizing models is tricky because it’s so cheap to run locally but so expensive in the cloud. Can you expand on this a bit? The way i'm thinking, that is only the case if you need low-latency. And in that case, it seems you just need to charge to cover compute. We're running Stable Diffusion on an eks cluster and it evens out the load across calls and prevents over-resourcing. If latency isnt an issue, it can be…

> If you're looking for someone under $300 or $400/mo, then I agree it may be an issue. Yeah. These models don’t need special resources to run. As a consumer I would prefer to buy a 4090 and then run everything locally. I don’t want to pay $10 or $20 monthly subs to a half dozen different AI services. All professional software turning into subscription services sucks. Midjourney charges $30/mo for unlimited “relax” t…

Midjourney is completely different from SD on a computational level. SD is optimized for speed, it takes 5 seconds to generate a 512x512, and their internal optimizations are bringing it down to 0.5 seconds (stated on their twitter). To achieve this, they do one-shot generation straight to 512x512, without upscaling slowly from 64x64 -> 256x256 -> 512x512

Midjourney is optimized for quality. It actually does do the gradual upscaling, which is how the Imagen and Ediffi papers demonstrated. This results in far better quality, but extremely taxing and slow. Even on 'fast' mode it runs like a snail compared to SD. I don't think it'll work on anything below a A100.

Or cook a meal. Much more useful than driving a car, because in a car you're mostly idling anyway so you might as well drive.

But if the car drove itself, we could cook meals in the car...
