I’m absolutely looking for a real answer, not here to downvote or troll.
When you say “the tech is useful” I don’t see it that way from my perspective because I can’t think of any specific scenarios for this tech to prove valuable to me, in terms of the way that I interface with an OS.
What I’m hoping for from you is a Use Case; what specific application of this tech would you, the End User, find to be a vast improvement in the way that you interface with Windows?
I’m not going to downvote you, because I’m genuinely curious: Why would this be a “very important can’t-live-without feature”, what’s the argument?
Because from where I’m sitting as a user of various Windows & Linux products for several decades, this has never been anything I’ve asked for or needed, let alone wanted to take up >20Gb of my hard drive space. What is the Use Case sales pitch that convinced you?
Garbage that wasted my time reading most of it. Thanks, internet

That was exactly my first thought too
While your points about the patronage system and its weaknesses are valid, you’re writing off several centuries worth of legitimate human endeavor because the systems that enabled it were dodgy. Guess what though? That’s literally all of history, dodgy AF, featuring an intrepid cast of characters more awful the deeper you look. That doesn’t make the art or music worth writing off though.
But honestly:
What is interesting though is the fact that AI art, and the LAION-5B dataset used to train the models is a true and earnest reflection of sorts of what images today really are
“Earnest” is definitely not the word you’re looking for. Derivative, maybe, because you said it yourself, they’re reflections; and as such, they’re going to reflect what images of today are; like you said. That makes them derivative, and I feel a vast artificiality that makes my heart sink when I look at the vast majority of them.
Choosing machine-created art over historical art is choosing a passing fad over centuries of culture. It’s your right; but to write off history with a wave of the hand means you’re missing out on truly expanding your horizons.
Expanding ones horizons absolutely does and should include art history, which is a part of human history.
Love the name and shame. Everyone needs to know about this guy
Anyone who buys into Will.I.Am’s hype is automatically the wrong person to run anything more than a lemonade stand
Also, gave a platform to “John of God”. She’s sketchy AF
The idea of “robot dreams” is no longer the exclusive domain of fiction.
No, LLMs are not AGI. They don’t dream, and hallucinations don’t count.
All they did was copy Webex’s UI
Lol they wish
Anymore
Hear hear
Shadow banning has been out of control on that site for years
Basically a press release
Left Reddit over a year ago, haven’t been back once. It was surprisingly easy, and a year on, it’s getting easier for others too.
These look basic
