My how fast the AI tech bros move to protect corporations but don't move to protect the average coder, artists, writers.

"AI is going to make everything free!!" Proceeds to make video games free. "No, not that, shut it down!"

    No new tech will make us free if it's controlled by the slaver class.

    The open models aren't controlled by them though.

    Exactly, and that's why they fucked the ram priced before they kicked into high gear, to repress us

    But we do own RAM, do they plan to buy all of it indefinitely? All sorts of other businesses still need computers so they will be buying them even if they cost more, and when they replace them the old ones can be sold off.

    There is even the possibility of crowd sourced AI, I know AI horde exists although I think its pretty small and I haven't touched it in a few years now.

    I don't know what their plans are, but I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to buy all of it indefinitely.

    It seems clear to me that they are betting on that they will not have to buy all of it indefinitely, and they will reach singularity before the Bill comes due. I don't think that'll happen, but I do think until the bubble pops, we're gonna be kind of fucked on pricing.

    crowd sourced AI

    So the problem here is that every machine would have to run an instance of some model, you can't spread the model over all the machines. It'd be too slow. Reading from NVMe on your very own machine is already pretty slow as it is. Kinda limits the model size.

    You can let others use your hardware and in return get higher priority to use others. Want to generate 20 images? Its quicker spread across several other peoples GPUs at the same time with the same prompt.

    Not poked AI stuff in a while though, it was interesting from a technical perspective but overall not super useful to me.

    Would you spend 13 years making GTA VI if it was going to be cracked day 1? Why bother? Just let the users vibe code it.

    That's literally what happens to every game on PC and jailbroken consoles, you can pirate Witcher 3 since launch and it still sold more than 10 million copies.

    That's fair. But, like, you couldn't build that exact game back from the crack, could you? Like, you can't decompile to machine code and understand everything in a game that complex usually. The cracks tend to be getting past DRM, but rarely allow you to fundamentally-alter the source code, or learn to make the exact same game within six to eight hours of release. This is new paradigm and pretending it's the exact same as before is, I think, gently, a little disingenuous.
