This has been known for a while and it’s a foundational assumption in the 2030 preparation plan for the Marines, Air Force, and Navy. SpaceForce and Army to a lesser extent.

TLDR: littoral ships, new tactics, and command structures are in place if we end up island hopping around the south china sea.

Saltstack, nixOS, OpenTofu, OpenBao and gitlab ci.yml to glue it all together on top of proxmox.

Don’t waste your time on a troll.

The bone grinding machine cares not for the nature of the bones that it is fed, only that it must be fed.

JFC what a bunch of ignorant hateful assholes to not even take the seconds to look up a tattoo to check it’s meaning and reference. Does this look like an MS13 reference to you?

And others yes. It really depends on where you look and who you ask. I think Laion was the beginning of the end but some people say it was Google in 2010 or so

Some go even earlier. But I think wholesale theft started around 2020-2021 at scale. Arxiv below for reference.

Also I really do apologize for my tone earlier. I’ve given all of the beneficial doubt I can really.

Be the change you want to see in this world and grab a mason jar.

Do not be evil

Independent farmers and small farm collectives grow food for SNAP. That’s why food stamps cannot be used on prepared food. It’s a farm subsidy to feed the poor. So this check is to subsidize farmers while fucking over food insecure communities.

There is no strawman I’m attacking. I’m addressing you directly. I’m not reforming or re-addressing your argument, I’m refuting it.

Your premise is flawed and as you state yourself it comes from a place of naivety as you don’t understand the tech. Which is fine, we don’t have to understand everything, but don’t cry foul when your premise is corrected in a public forum. I replied up the chain with what you could do and projects that are close to what you propose. I also gave you resources that you can go through to learn more if you have the interest.

But it doesn’t change the fact that maybe the greatest theft of artistic labor in our lifetimes has already happened and there’s very little independent artists can do about it.

You’re correct. Trolls love to hide in grey area naval gazing questions. My kneejerk reaction is to directly refute and shut it down. I definitely err on the side of asshole now though.

I haven’t looked into it too much

The closest thing to what you’re discussing is what’s built over at db0

However what you’re hypothesizing cannot exist, due to the nature of a diffusion model. The source that the images are generated from, all of that was stolen in 2021. It was illegally scraped.

AIHorde is moving in the right direction, but we need a system where the people who’s source work is being scraped need to either consent to the use of their artistic labor, through copy left practices. Or they deserve to be compensated through royalties.

In latestage capitalism the only power is that which lies within capitol. That has been stolen by the large AI companies. What you’re proposing through your hypotheticals is closing the barn door after the horses have got out.

That is the kind I’m talking about, so bringing up the systems I’m not talking about is just a strawman.

I’m actively refuting what you’re proposing because not only does it not exist, but it’s currently impossible, due to the nature of the tech it’s based on. This is not a strawman argument, this is a refutation of a naive take that does nothing to push forward the tech in a direction which you yourself would like it to go.

Sorry to be such a wet blanket. If you’d like to know more about Diffusion models and what they stole here’s a great place to start. https://systemicalternatives.org/2023/06/06/the-controversy-of-ai-art-theft/

If you want to work towards what your hypotheticals state you could consider contributing to aihorde.net.

My response again is from the viewpoint of someone who is constantly refuting “Why don’t we just…” naval gazing and how trolls and other bad faith actors hide behind that type of language.

None of the hypothetical methods I described would do that.

So it’s exploitive then.
