Explain Illuminati like I'm American
Then you should provably know that image gen existed long before MLLMs and was already a menace to artists back then.
And that MLLM is generally a layered combo of lots of preexisting tools, where LLM is used as a medium that allows to attach OCR inputs and give more accurate instructions to image gen AI part.
Openweight/Opensource LLMs do exist though. And isn't not only tiny models.
Fun thing, we don't know which one is an impostor
With infinite time, sure. Time isn't infinite.
AI marketing is total BS, but it doesn't mean AI is not useful in it's current state. People try to argue as if that was the case, but it simply isn't. Agentic AI + LLM does speed up usual tasks by a whole fucking lot.
Next day, these people would be wondering why they don't have access to essential tools they need to be effective (means of production), completely forgotten they were against these tools completely out of principle. This is as shortsighted as it can get.
Article directly complains about AI artwork. You know what LLM even means?
You can have knowledge of the technology firsthand and just need to generate the code? I mean I would need to google different function names and conversion tricks all the time anyway, even if I'm really good at it. If AI slops it for me, it just speeds it up by a lot, and I can notice bad moments.
Again, the better you know what you are doing, the more it could help.
even meta
Lol, ofc meta, they have the biggest bigdata out there, full of private data.
Most of the opensources are recompilations of existing opensource LLMs.
And the page you've listed is <10b mostly, bar LLMs with huge financing, and generally either copropate or Chinese behind them.
Besides, the article is about image gen AI, not LLMs.
you can't be critical about the answer
You actually can, and you should be. And the process is not destructive since you can always undo in tools like cursor, or discard in git.
Besides, you can steer a good coding LLM in a right direction. The better you understand what are you doing - the better.
I can almost guarantee that hundred billion params LLMs are not trained on that, and are trained on the whole web scraped to the furthest extent.
The only sane and ethical solution going forward is to force to opensource all LLMs. Use the datasets generated by humanity - give back to humanity.
