Fuck the US government and fuck OpenAI
If you have copyright juggernauts gatekeeping the data through legislation, then you can't have open-source models.
I'm surprised how many want to shoot consumers in the face just to protect mafia like companies like Universal Studios and YouTube.
So what I'm hearing is we now get to have our own Mickey Mouse and Pokemon ripoffs if they are down through OpenAI.
You can make a pokemon ripoff with Photoshop, should Photoshop be illegal? Is it the tools fault or the user's fault?
lol
We’re in danger
"Leadership," well, here's hopin they find a way to materialize intellectual property and speculative investment, since that's like, the only metrics they use and neither of them are actually, y'know, real.
Can you reasonably train a local model? Inference is one thing and can be run on a decent gaming graphics card but training requires a lot more compute.
You can absolutely train a nontrivial task model on a gaming gpu (image classifier, sound classifier, text model with a very structured input and output, etc). You can also post-train addon layers on top of existing open-weight models (LORA).
Can you train it better than anything already available on model zoos for free though? If not then beside learning I dont see the point.
Depends on the size of the training data, how big the resulting model is, and how fast you want it to finish.
Got it, copy right I'd dead then Right?
Therefore copyrights mean nothing
