That’s pretty funny, not gonna lie.

We have access to them from work, perhaps I can use that.

Oh, wow, I didn’t realize that would be so much fun! And it’s somehow faster than the ones online too, and you can really do a lot with all the different models you can download!

Hm didn’t think of that but I guess it could be build in to my videos to make them more entertaining to watch

Hm, never heard of ComfyUI, will check it out!

Blender sounds very cool but also very intimidating ^^

This is what I expect of happening of the whole AI industry.similar to what happened to BigData or Web3.

My parents are not like that at all. They are nice and friendly about it.

This story was about how complicated it sometimes get while you thought it would be a 30 second thing and you give up after an hour.

This was me directly translating from German I think :D

Just for my understanding, wasn’t OpenAI not also a nonprofit and is now a forprofit and the CEO is at least as bad as Zuckerberg?
I understand it will make it a little bit harder, but nothing prevents Mastodon to go the OpenAI way or is the situation different in some way?

He doesn’t want to be left behind, everyone else is doing it, the King will be mad at you if you’re the outlier.

I wonder how many independent bluesky servers there are.

In the long run there is no way around it. To be honest if on device voices would be good enough then just sending the text version and let it read on the device in a somewhat natural voice would be kind of cool. I’m already using a special app which just reads any article I share with it in a fairly ok voice and I love this functionality, I don’t need to sit down and read a long article on my phone, I can do something else and just make it read the article to me.

What I am worried about though are the people who do the research and who write the texts. Those sadly will also be replaced over time with machines and there is something we will really lose.

I feel it really depends on the country you work with. Back in Sweden it was such a sausage fest. But since I started working with people from Russia, Ukraine and especially China it changed significantly. OK top management is still full of dudes, but middle management and the people who do the implementation is a good mix. About 40℅ women even in positions of power. Korea seems to be somewhere in the middle.
