No, they might be a bunch of mewling toddlers, but that's not a conspiracy theory. There was a lot of corporate and legislative pressure to remove objectionable content, so it appears they mostly removed human anatomy, weapons, certain contemporary artists, celebrity faces, etc. The problem with that, I expect, is that LAION's dataset is already just awful -- and you're cutting into some of the better data you have available.

How many data samples you tested for this conclusion?

I'm just going by what I've seen people try to produce and say, so far. I haven't done any extensive testing, partly because I'm using an ancient Tesla GPU and they broke FP32.

Colab.

But yeah, usually such big models are tested on huge scales.

Some cherry picked comparisons with tens samples shows nothing.
