diffuselight,

You think giving away ChatGPT for free isn’t distorting a market ?

diffuselight,

No they’ll train on laundered model output. Like every llama.

The investment thesis they the data is valuable is bonkers. It’s not. Not only has it been exfiltrated and can be laundered in a dozen ways, Reddit also won’t be able to effectively assert copyright.

Look at Facebook. It’s full of reposted quora content now with AI images and AI laundered text.

Reddit is dead

diffuselight,

Been running the docker on unraid for years in a HP slimline. Rock solid.

diffuselight,

The obly smaller than notebook device that ever worked for me is the GPD Win Max 2023. The keyboard actually works and the performance is stellar. Of course the price is a while different matter but it doubles as a high performance gaming desktop especially with eGPU

Everything else so far looked great but was entirely impractical

diffuselight,

Japan is probably the highest trust society in the planet. You regularly walk into Lawson’s or 7-11 in tokyo that have no employees visible and very few cameras if any. You self check out and are on your way.

Meanwhile in the bay area more and more regular goods in supermarkets and drug stores are locked in boxes you need to find an employee for to unlock.

Trust in society makes everything more convenient and easier, it’s an invisible tax multiplied into every daily transaction and the US is in the “close to critical failure” state with almost nobody trusting anyone. No experts, no government, just snakecharmers like Don who change trust for blind faith. And make no mistake, people who have to question every interaction every day eventually are so worn down, the snakecharmers can pick them up by selling hope that you only trust them and all will be ok.

This is no coincidence. Common narratives in the west, through the GDP lens declare Japan a depression ridden shithole doomed by demographic decline - But the GDP lens misses an entire variable.

Quality.

In the west, we have sold quality to growth. A phone that breaks every year sells a new phone. A dish made with lower quality ingredients makes more profit. Quality of life and convenience in Japan is incredibly high. Stuff works. Reliably. Your train is never late. Our escalator doesn’t break down. Your power doesn’t go out. Your food is generally high quality. There a small convenience store every 50 meters - no trips to large walmart megastores requires.

Yes Japan has issues, this isn’t about otaku fawning here - this is about the fact that we sell quality in the west for profit which does not fly in Japan and if you visit Tokyo in 2023 from SF or Seattle, … the contrast is stark. Somehow every car got replaced with electric or hybrid versions. The trains running on Yamanote are new. The connectivity 5G. Shit just works. The food is highly affordable and it’s quality hasn’t declined.

Of course people visiting from low trust societies without social compact to not fuck shit up are going to behave like barbarians. Especially when this behavior is incentivized by views / engagement or monetisation.

I’m with Singapore on this one. Someone who uploads a video like that should be caned and their social media accounts force wiped to start over to disincentive any possible gains

diffuselight,

Just facists destroying faith in everything that’s not them. Normal modus operandi. These people need sheep who are so confused what to believe that they don’t trust anyone anymore and instead substitute trust for blind faith.

diffuselight,

So lange die Knechte auf dem Stimmzettel stehen ist das total ok. Wer moechte nicht vpn den Wagen geknechtet werden in unserer Auto kultur.

diffuselight,

I thought we defederate Lenmygrad, why is the tankie being spread here

diffuselight,

When arned people ask you to not leave it’s called a hostage situation. The mean age in Gaza is 18 years old so we’re talking about kids and parents being told by men with guns to not leave.

diffuselight,

I see someone has an Endlösung in mind. It’s hard to escape the impression that maybe it wasn’t intelligence community incompetence that invited this “perl habor”. And the plans for this do feel like they’ve been in some drawer for a while.

Nothing justifies Hamas but likewise, nothing justifies doing this to the many innocent, the children, the babies, the people just happened to be born in the wrong spot. The average age in Gaza is, iirc, below 18

diffuselight, (edited )

That’s a fundamental misunderstanding of how diffusion models work. These models extract concepts and can effortlessly combine them to new images.

If it learns woman + crown = queen

and queen - woman + man = king

it is able to combine any such concept together

As Stability has noted. any model that has the concept of naked and the concept of child in it can be used like this. They tried to remove naked for Stable Diffusion 2 and nobody used it.

Nobody trained these models on CSAM and the problem is a dilemma in the same way a knife is a dilemma. We all know a malicious person can use a knife for murder, including of children Yet society has decided that knives sufficient other uses that we still allow their sale pretty much everywhere.

Asylbewerberbehandlung: Zahnärztechef weist Merz' Aussagen zurück (www.tagesschau.de) German

Die Bundeszahnärztekammer hat die Aussagen von CDU-Chef Friedrich Merz über Zahnarztbehandlungen für Asylbewerber als unzutreffend zurückgewiesen. “Ich kann die Aussagen von Friedrich Merz ehrlich gesagt nicht nachvollziehen”, sagte der Präsident der Kammer, Christoph Benz, der “Wirtschaftswoche”. “Beim Zahnarzt...

diffuselight,

Exactly the same that killed the US republican party - the economic wing adopted tea party narratives for populist reasons, for the votes and then got thrown out for just saying the words but not being true believers.

diffuselight,

Whisper is perfectly fine as a subtitle generator you can run at home and subtitle a movie in minutes

diffuselight,

Yes the bigger model is quite good

diffuselight,

ten cent army

diffuselight,

Game industry professional here: We know Riccitello. He presided over EA at critical transition periods and failed them. Under his tenure, Steam won total supremacy because he was trying to shift people to pay per install / slide your credit card to reload your gun. Yes his predecessor jumped the shark by publishing the Orange Box, but Riccitellos greed sealed the total failure of the largest company to deal with digital distribution by ignoring that gamers loved collecting boxes (something Valve understood and eventually turned into the massive Sale business where people buy many more games than they consume)

He presided over EA earlier than that too, and failed.

Both of times, he ended up getting sacked after the stock reached a record low. But personally he made out like a bandit selling EA his own investment in VG Holdings (Bioware/Pandemic) after becoming their CEO.

He’s the kind of CEO a board of directors would appoint to loot a company.

At unity, he invested into ads heavily and gambled on being able to become another landlord. He also probably paid good money on reputation management (search for Riccitello or even his full name on google and marvel at the results) after certain accusations were made.

diffuselight,

This will lead to fines and settlements and then the executives will get off scot free. Just modern day absolution writs

diffuselight,

Better solution: Make them all catholic priests.

diffuselight,

cloudflare, 10 years. Prices are not going to not move for 10 years

diffuselight,

It’s great if your country doesn’t force the young to finance the old.

diffuselight,

Proxmox with alpine containers or Unraid are both painless

diffuselight,

None of that really works anymore in the age of AI inpainting. Hashes / Perceptual worked well before but the people doing this are specifically interested in causing destruction and chaos with this content. they don’t need it to be authentic to do that.

It’s a problem that requires AI on the defensive side but even that is just going to be eternal arms race. This problem cannot be solved with technology, only mitigated.

The ability to exchange hashes on moderation actions against content may offer a way out, but it will change the decentralized nature of everything - basically bringing us back to the early days of the usenet, Usenet Death Penaty, etc.

diffuselight,

There’s actually a setting at least on Facebook to specifically disable alcohol and gambling based on some settlement a few years ago but they hid it really welll

diffuselight,

no remain identifiable, etc. Putin doesn’t gain anything, but the dude presumably knows he was on the kill list so disappearing would be in his interest

diffuselight,

He’s glancing over controlnet. When you look at how disney makes shows with unreal, it is quite obvious that it will kill jobs in the industry very expediently
