Literally does all of that fine. I don't know what is happening for you, but I can have it make a sprite, multiple frames with a reasonable semblance of cohesion (For AI anyway), and make rather complex algorithmic math just fine.

I think you're just not asking your requests properly. I noticed the old helper was able to "assume" a lot of intent with more vague requests. Maybe you should just try to be more specific?

    Yeah...

    There may be a good reason they don't accept donations though. Perhaps the AI model is under a copywrite, or some sort of license that states that it's not allowed to be used for profit? I know donations aren't really the same as profit, but that area legally gets a bit mirky... 🤷‍♀️

    If I were to guess which is more likely, it's probably a ramp towards a paid model, ads, or death. I don't mean to be a pessimist, but this has been the ecosystem I've been seeing play out for almost 2 decades now with things like this. (Not just AI stuff, but these sorts of amazing platforms seem to die trying to support the weight of all the people who need it.)

    ... And like that, I've made myself sad. 🥲

    I'd also like to thank you for keeping us all up to date about the state of things. I've noticed you giving us all heads up about what's going down.

    It's much appreciated, by at the very least me. 😉

    Well good to hear it was a hoax, AND that it's gone.

    I'm sure whoever did it in the first place thought he was the funniest person around. But anyway, that's me being hopeful it was just somebody not having malicious intent. (A good friend of mine says, "never assume malus where ignorance or stupidity can be the answer.")

    Anyway, glad to hear it's down.

    You might have to manually save your files and refresh the page.

    I've never done it myself yet, but in theory you can just right click the src and hit 'save all'.

    All else fails... Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V for the next 3 hours depending on your project size.

    So perhaps I could be fooling myself, or maybe this is a bad idea...

    But why not allow us to use local models as the helper? If we just added a pipeline to a local model as the brain of the helper, and kept all the resources that the old helper uses as a reference... That might alleviate a lot of stress and some cost off the function of the AI itself, which could save some money would it not?

    I'm not super savvy on all the technical background required but as a concept I think this might at least somewhat help save on the COST side of things.

    Thoughts?

     

    I've noticed a trend that somebody or some group is going around and mass down-voting everyone who asks anything on the forum.

    I feel that's kind of a bad-form and juvenile act, but then again I'm not entirely sure if it's a single person on multiple alts, or a group of people that are attempting deliberate obscuration of important questions / information about the platform and it's activity.

    Perhaps I'm seeing shadows and malicious intent where there isn't any, and it's just the community being... weird? But I find this to be something to bring up. A whole front page of nothing but down-votes makes me think that there's more going on than just people being unhappy with posts.
