Honestly, AI being FOSS is probably the best outcome here. The point of FOSS projects is to give knowledge and power to everyone. For Artists, copyright is what protects them, but for things involving medicine, technology, education and more, it becomes a privilege that the rich and powerful can abuse. It's why you have people advocating for free health care and free college books, because they're made ridiculously expensive for arbitrary reasons. OpenAI, home of GPT, is mocked for failings its promise stated in its name; it is now closed-source and for-profit, and have abandoned its roots. Now they've begun to make claims that corporations should take the mantle of responsibility that is AI ethics. Corporations? Ethics? Yikes. Just in case anyone is curious, our corporate overlords seem more interested in censoring offensive things AI say than address the wide-reaching harm they cause. And, well, as it just so happened, the rich and powerful have a say on what government does. Big tech must never be the only ones to have access to AI, because then they would be only ones to dictate the policy surrounding it. By making it FOSS, at least the people will have the opportunity to understand and have a means to fight back.

It's a huge stretch to say the decision to make it open sourced was not of strictly monetary gains but to push oppositional regulations for online identifications. The tech industry released these tools more openly to entrench their presence enough to make regulations more difficult. Regulating a saturated market, that scans an immeasurable amount of data, makes it difficult to even discuss the topic. Even if people and companies within that industry is found liable for the violations, courts will ultimately assign a fine that's a drop in the bucket of profits made data already stolen and future profits to come. It's that simple, just greed in the expense of culture and violations of our identities on the part of corporations. This isn't some deep state conspiracy and that example about online posting, especially since speech that incites lawless actions has been legally unprotected since a 1969 ruling already. That's why it's legal for feds to show up to a home of someone who threatened political figures or violence on public spaces like schools or churches. Tying your online activity to a gov't ID is horrible policy that violates personal rights and I'll fight against it as well but this video is unhelpful and stokes paranoia. The ones pushing it in the gov't rn are republicans who are afraid of minors accessing porn, who do not care that their actions have far reaching implications.

[@MrDoomsdayBomb]

@@mobisugershot I don't disagree with you on the need for regulation, just that I don't think the reason why AI models have been made so widely accessible is because of regulation. It's obvious to me that Facebook, Microsoft, and Google are in an arms race to increase AI capabilities, and having as many people using their models to provide novel data that can be used for future training instances is a prime way of incurring advantage in said race. That said, while I think that those proposing that LLMs are 'conscious' are just flat out wrong, it is unquestionable that there is a change going on from training inputs to outputs. I mean, the main software logic behind current AI models is called a transformer for a reason. As such, there is the capacity for transformative work to take place with AI. The main issue, though, is that, as has been shown in the past, through clever prompting LLMs can spit out original training input, meaning that one can argue that LLMs are in possession of copyrighted material they do not have the rights to.

[@Bluecho4]

^This. While I have no doubt people in, say, the CIA thought of the very things Midas talked about here, it seems like the kind of idea that only occurred to THEM in retrospect. AFTER generative "AI" already proliferated beyond any controls. I don't think the government is really so competent as to have masterminded it from the start. If it happens, it's because those in state control pivoted to it opportunistically. If anyone could be said to have "masterminded" the proliferation, it's corporations looking to undercut the power of artists, for their own greedy benefit. Fostering and attempting to manufacture mass adoption of the technology, so they can steal art on an industrial scale. All while ensuring the artists who are necessary for the process to function in the first place have their bargaining positions destroyed. Turning them into little more than editors for the slop churned out by the Plagiarism Machines, at far reduced pay. If, indeed, companies can't just go all-in on theft, _as they've been trying to do lately._ I can also see corporations pushing to tailor regulations around creating datasets that artists would feed for a nominal fee, while signing away all rights to that original work. And then the industries in question using their power and functional monopolies to force said artists to do so, in lieu of giving them real work that they retain rights to. It would be just like many industries where it's standard for creators to be work-for-hire producers of art the company would own, except MORE. Because every work-for-hire job also deprives the artists and their peers of future work. Creating a world where no artists have jobs, and everything produced is the same regurgitated slop over and over. Algorithms cannibalizing their own output, until all is gray ooze.

The open models are barely a year behind the cutting edge, and they are definitely usable. And they also innovate in multiple things, which in-turn allows the big companies to copy and use in their next big models. You can run small open source models locally which come close to GPT-4 performance, the bigger open source models are already on the same level if not better in many cases. And we are talking about models that are 4 to 10 times smaller than GPT-4 in parameter count. If you have never used them, avoid talking about them.

[@ight001]

I think this is a true conspiracy theory. Not because any of the content is wrong, but because of how it is linked up. The push for AI is a push for an infinite money machine, and everyone wants an infinite money machine, as long as it doesn't affect inflation. Which AI produced content promises to be. The result of that is, if you want non-AI produced content (true content) then you're going to need verification, which requires ID. This was never the goal, this is the consequence of pursuing an infinite money machine. First slaves were an infiinite money machine, then they made water wheels and factories, now in the silicon age it's AI. We are always pursuing infinite money machines, and there will always be regulation. Factories didn't have regulations and hired children, but the regulations were added and now we all have to prove we are people before getting work. Slaves didn't have regulations, as long as you could force someone into work they would, until the English came along and abolished slavery (by buying every slave in the English Empire after America's war for independance. Yes England abolished slavery before America and a proportion of every taxed pound went to this until 2015, when the price for buying and freeing every slave in the empire had been finally reached). So, now we have a new infinite money machine, and are waiting on governments to impliment regulations to make sure we don't fall into an anarcho-capitalist society where one group doesn't allow AI, one allows AI and one is ambivalent. And governments really don't want anacho-capitalism, so you can sleep easy knowing this will have regulations, because Geo-politics are a thing. Governments are debating whether TikTok should be allowed and that's only partitally AI. Full fledged AI will not have full freedoms, just like us

agreed for the most part that they probably didn't have privacy busting in mind when they started ai image generator research / development i think the government has been fighting to take privacy away for a long while, wiretapping phones / the whole thing NSA and edward snowden, being able to use AI to justify invading our privacy is just one more unhappy consequence of AI, but also that's good in a way since people have been fighting for privacy for a long time, there is the electronic frontier foundation just off the top of my head, probably more so hopefully AI won't be the last straw that rips away any privacy we still have, really smoking copium lol

[@jarvy251]

@@Merilirem "In the end its the most effective path to creation beyond what humans can dream of now." What do you mean by effective? The way the AI functions, it's merely a statistical average of the data it already has. It determines what pixel is statistically most likely to be placed beside another. By definition, it cannot innovate, it works on averages. This is why AI "Art" is often instantly spottable by artists, they all sort of look the same. That's not something that has improved over time, and may even be getting worse as the AI begins to cannibalize already mind-boggling volume of AI generated images that have flooded the internet to feed it dataset.

​@@jarvy251 Are you an artist? As someone who has drawn for over 10 years, I can tell you that simply, you are wrong. Artists cannot tell AI art just because it looks the "same", they actually have a hard time unless the AI made very obvious mistakes, and THAT is what annoys them. The fact a machine can do what they can, the only way to cope is to mock it, belittle the users of the program and attack the programmers. People who hate AI art, are absolutely no different, from the people who hated artists for getting massive egos. Before AI, I watched artists ripping each other apart gleefully over any excuse possible, be it "style stealing", "tracing" or "recolors", with or without proof, they'd try to crush lesser or budding artists with zero remorse. And now an alternative has appeared and is FAR cheaper and MORE agreeable, and now artists realize, "oh no, the people we treated as moneybags are moving on". The art community attacked me for as little as defending an artist in the past, and they attack me now for defending those who utilize AI. Nothing changes.

[@Kielix]

@@mycocodog47 im confused, do artists now deserve to have their entire careers destroyed because some of them were egotistical assholes? AI is only being used as "a tool" for right now because this is the infancy stage where it will be as crappy as it ever will be. but what happens in 5-10 years when models are heavily refined to not generate 15 broken fingers on one hand? it is going to be a full-on replacement for a LOT of people. the more the AI is trained and perfected, the more people are going to be replaced. what annoys artists about AI art is kind of like doing math free-hand versus a calculator. doing it freehand requires you actually understand the processes of the equation and know how to solve the problem, and showcase your work. then here comes an AI program that solves it in .000001 seconds and can spit out the formula in the exact same way as the guy who did it freehand. but there's nothing to be impressed about, its just a machine spitting something out with no effort. the issue is that many people only care about what the end result looks like, and if they can find a way to create something that's pretty similar, requires very little downtime, no effort, and very minimal financial spending to do it, that's what they're going to use. like imagine any of Michelangelo's iconic church art done with the basic tools he used, versus a machine with a million individual pipes that shot out paintballs and recreated it in 1 second. its cool to see what stuff computers can do, but there's no inherent value in it. all AI is doing is creating an environment where hyper-optimal performance to get a picture generated as properly and quickly as possible is the only meaningful metric to art.

[@mycocodog47]

@@Kielix Absolutely everything you said is incorrect. The value of art is determined by demand, and the idea of free hand mathematicians being bothered by others using calculators is laughable, the people free handing are the ONLY ones who need or want to utilize arithmetic at that level, the people using calculators simply have ZERO need to be at that level. Your examples are so extreme that they prove nothing about what you are trying to imply, as they are so removed from reality that it makes zero sense whatsoever. Michelangelo was famous because he was an exemplary artists for his time and is revered today for doing what he had done in the time period he was alive, this is a HUGE difficulty to the current year in which society, religion, entertainment and more have developed to such absurd degrees. If Michelangelo did what he did in the current day, he would be another artist. Your feelings toward AI are simply too extreme for you to rationally consider what even fits your argument.

They're comfortable believing companies would lose customers or that it's a necessary thing for progress, that kind of BS.

Oh you are right on the mark. Mortal Kombat made Ermac on accident due to what would now be identified as AI art. The first MK on Sega and SNES, had an "Error Machine" from scorpion, came with a change of color on the attire to red. Came with the spear throw move but without the spear animation; since it was an error, making it seem as if it is telekinesis. People thought it was a character that they slipped into the game other than Reptile. But Netherrealm Studios at the time didn't do this on purpose. They went along with it after "ERror MAChine" got its nickname from the public. This happened again on purpose during Mortal Kombat 2 with Katana, which is why we have the Blood Witch Skarlet. Case and point, Netherrealm Studios developed characters using an AI Generated environment with their own assets. So with that in mind, how AI is being used not under the same morals is alarming.
