“I ate sigma pie and it was delicious!” Sounds like something that’d show up on my university’s YikYak, alluding to eating out a sorority chick from Sigma Pi lol

Idk if that’s a legitimate sorority, but I know that regardless of the sorority mentioned someone would reply something like “wait till you try a pi phi 😜” and/or someone would say you’re going to get an STD from that particular sorority

If you didn’t want me to bite it why did you bring it to my domain?

Free Media Heck Yeah. They lost their ml domains but do still have their main site FMHY.net which you should definitely avoid if you don’t want to accidentally pirate anything…

I’ve had to migrate from two instances getting shut down: fmhy.ml and lemm.ee.

Now it looks like I’m a new account but I swear I’ve been on lemmy for at least two years now lol

I was raised Mormon so let me tell you the real Zion, “new Jerusalem” is actually in Jackson County Missouri. The church just hasn’t bought every square inch of land there yet lol

Can’t “have a revelation” that “the lord says it’s time to establish Zion in Jackson Missouri” until after you can profit off all the land value increase due to demand.

While “varying degrees of hostility” seems valid, I don’t really agree in most cases.

“AI” is a very useful predictive tool especially in like biochemistry, but gen AI for images, especially using corpo models, is a really horrible use of it.

Trying to generate an image using a pixel by pixel based model is like trying to approximate pi using a simulation of sliding blocks, counting collisions. Will it work? Yeah. Is it very accurate? Not really unless you waste a shit ton of time and processing power.

The energy cost alone is a significant reason to despise AI generated art, but add to it the fact you’re using other people’s work without crediting them, and the fact that using and hyping up this art encourages other corpos to build their own models, wasting even more energy and practically DDOSing sites to scrape data…

Doesn’t seem like this stuff is very redeemable.

I guess I don’t have anything against personal models trained on data with permission from the artists and run locally. Hell, if you know the style you want, it’s best to train with just that style and not all the art on the internet, but if you’re already putting in that much time, you could probably just pay an artist or draw it yourself.

(Don’t tell me I chose the wrong instance lol I’m aware)
