    I have that exact same .jpeg stored on my computer and I don’t even know where it came from. I don’t even watch superhero films

        They’re not selling it though, they’re selling a machine with which you could commit copyright infringement. Like my PC, my HDD, my VCR…

          No, they are selling you time in a digital room with a machine, and all of the things it spits out at you.

          You dont own the program generating these images. You are buying these images and the time to tinker with the AI interface.

            I’m not buying anything, most AI is free as in free beer and open source e.g. Stable Diffusion, Mistral…

            Unlike hardware it’s actually accessible to everyone with sufficient know-how.

              Youre pretty young, huh. When something on the internet from a big company is free, youre the product.

              Youre bug and stress testing their hardware, and giving them free advertising. While using the cheapest, lowest quality version that exists, and only for as long as they need the free QA.

              The real AI, and the actual quality outputs, cost money. And once they are confident in their server stability, the scraps youre picking over will get a price tag too.

                Literally what are you on about? I run my models locally, the only hardware i am stress testing is my own.

                I don’t support commercialization of anything, least of all AI, and the highest quality outputs come from customized refined models in the open source and AI art communities, not anything made by a corpo.

                I think you must be literally 12 yourself if you think you can comment on this tech without even understanding models and weights are something you download if you want anything beyond fancy often wrong Google search, they’re not run in the “cloud” like your fancy iPad web apps and they are open source.
