Unknown forces, like the Megacorp that controls the tech

If AIs can be optimzed to run on a single graphics cards there is no controlling this.

I just hope stable diffusion isn't a one off

All it takes is one smart, slightly motivated person to make a free option that's "good enough"

More than one. It takes a lot of skill, time and money, which are hard to come by if you aren't a megacorp. That isn't to say it can't happen, but that it's much more difficult than you may expect.

Yeah In 2023

Exactly. It's very difficult to get the lead on megacorps is my point.

Language models seem to be a way steeper difficulty curve though. The difference between Stable Diffusion and image generators from like a few years before it is big, but the older models are still good enough to often produce viable output. But the difference between a huge language model and a large open-source one is a way bigger gap, because even getting small things wrong can lead to completely unintelligible sentences that were clearly written by a machine.

Yeah, for sure, but as technology improves it's just going to get easier and easier. And this technology is likely to get so good that to a normal person, the difference between the best and the world and "good enough for everyday life" is likely huge.

It already runs happily on last-gen hardware. I've been running it on my 10GB 3080.

It doesn't even have to be last-gen. It works well on my 4gb GTX 970 with 8gb of ram, it is very impressive how optimized it is

Stable diffusion works on my 6gb 2060RTX, but I am quite sure GPT3 wouldn't

Exactly.. endless possibilities. Something like M3GAN could be real.

The first superhuman AGI will likely give its creator an insurmountable lead.

I mean, humans have lived basically our entire lives, as a species and often individually, governed by forces we couldn’t really explain at the time. This still seems different though. Seems like no turning back. But maybe that’s been true for a long time.
