I just want the fucking oil mafia to burn at sun’s temperature. They are such a fucking obstacle and disgrace to humanity’s development. Same goes for the big pharma. All the suffering just because of greed for a piece of paper with £/₹/$/€ on it.
Ok angry rant over.
my own LLM that can be used on my own computer
May I ask how many B parameters does it have? Because the paradox over here is:
I can’t afford to pay for artists
You can afford LLMs right now because all of the LLM companies are losing money on it. If they decide they want to make a profit, they will raise their prices significantly. So you still end up in the same situation. You don’t have much control on what an LLM spits out while with doing animation manually, you have total control or at-least sit with an actual animator to make it look how you envision it to be.
I plan on using AI to turn my writing into a visual animated format for people to consume.
What makes you think that people will respond the same way and in the same numbers to LLM generated animation than if it were crafted by an artist? I reckon that it will be much lower. I see it on youtube constantly. I watched a video about a topic, then I got recommended something related to it from a different channel. Guess what? The script and the animation were so damn similar and the shit they were spewing wasn’t even true in the end. Everything that both the channels made was slop. Sure they spit out more content than conventional methods and got a few thousand views each video and made decent money on it. But they aren’t gonna sustain for long if they want audience retention.
Since then I have been more mindful on what video I click on and going to the extent of disabling recommendations and watch history.
Yes the energy consumption is bad. My main gripe about LLM generated art is that it will not be original. It will use its training data from uncredited artworks to generate it. Art usually is made by humans to express something or convey something in a creative way. LLMs fail at that. What LLMs can actually be helpful at is making learning art more accessible to everyone. Art schools or private art classes can be expensive. This lowers the barrier to entry.
As for you using generated Art is that the it might be really beautiful but it will be very difficult to maintain that style and even more difficult to convince that it is your style. The Artist doesn’t get much recognition with LLM generated art. Using it as a critique also seems stupid because LLMs will aways try to give an objective view on it than subjective. Your art won’t trigger an emotion in it and might say it is bad or “do this to make it more understandable” — that’s where you lose as an artist.
My mom likes to paint as a hobby. What she does it searches stuff on Pinterest (which is mostly LLM Generated). She uses it as an inspiration to do it in her own style and maybe give it some spin. She keeps all of it for herself.
I am the c/fuck_ai person but at this point I have made peace we can’t avoid it. I still don’t want it to do artsy stuff (image gen, video gen) and to blindly use it in critical stuff because humans are the ones that should be doing it or have constant oversight. I think the team’s logic is correct here, because there is no way to know if the code is from an LLM or a human unless something there screams LLM or the contributor explicitly mentions it. Mandating the latter seems like a reasonable move for now.
that’s not a joke lol. governments and businesses actually think like that. Whom are they gonna sue if, for example, CachyOS borks something? Since it being a community developed distro, it doesn’t provide dedicated 24x7 tech support or would quickly patch something because some business’s application stopped working on that distro.
Well they want “official” tech support from a company which they can hold accountable for any problems.
Topic aside: I want to play resident evil requiem. do i have to play previous games as well? I haven’t played any.
I just have one kernel and one Distro with secure boot. So I directly use UEFI.
I have an idea. Linux should start automatically everytime you boot you PC.
Whatever helps you sleep at night :)
because you enjoy corporate oversight and ads? or because you don’t see the benefit to you personally?
Bruh. Everything doesn’t have to be political. I simply don’t have the time, energy and willingness to learn and contribute to a project which people in my community are not even going to use. The incentive simply isn’t their for anyone when there is already a perfectly working solution—as much as I hate to say—from Google. I wish OSM and the maps & navigation apps using it were more popular and better but they aren’t simply because they don’t have dedicated teams.
Google Maps also get contributions from the community (which is much larger than OSM). So google benefits from volunteer contributions as well as their own teams mapping stuff around the world which OSM can never match. It isn’t something like Search, Drive or Photos that can be replaced by a community driven FOSS alternative. It requires huge funding.
I throw a lot of shit at Google but Google Maps is the best piece of software they have ever created. I wish OSM was this upto date with their data but it has a long way to go. I think this that piece of software which needs a big dedicated team or at-least paid volunteers instead of community volunteers because there ain’t no way I am going out to volunteer for free to map out my neighbourhood accurately.
Lol I used to think they scrapped the maps app entirely. Surprised it still exists. Who even uses it outside the US?
Good. I will avoid those websites.
It is always like this. Make a very anti consumer decision that everyone hates, then tone it down so the half of those people will say “we won”. This is a loss.
sushhh… the shareholders’ imaginary line has to go up.
Repeat with me.
INSTALL LINUX!
If you think you’re wanking too much, go to a therapist, talk to a friend or parents or just try to find a partner. What the fuck a computer program is going to do to get you to stop wanking.
both haha
