It’s fraud to use it for financial gain, however it’s not illegal to directly copy someone’s likeness for non business uses.

So, never mind the fact that almost any use case is going to be for political or financial gain. Let's just take the Mr Beast example here.

It's an ad. It's being used for financial gain, because it's an ad. Either somebody is actually selling $2 iPhones (doubtful), or it's a scam. Scams are also illegal, under various kinds of laws. Unfortunately, scams are usually committed in other countries.

This is an ad on a Chinese social media platform. Who's going to enforce getting rid of this shit on a Chinese social media platform? Yeah, I know you're going to point out that TikTok US is technically a US company, but we all know who really owns ByteDance and TikTok.

A federal investigation on this matter is going to point to TikTok US and then lead nowhere because the scam was created in China.

How is making it illegal to steal a person’s face and make them say things they never agreed to going to make China an AI super power?

One, fraud is already illegal, and there's plenty of other laws to use in this situation. And none of those laws apply to other countries. A country like China doesn't give a shit, and will gladly use AI to dupe American audiences into whatever they want to manipulate.

Two, as soon as you ask Congress to enact some law to defend against the big bad AI monster under your bed, it's going to go one of two ways:

  1. They push some law that's so toothless that it doesn't really do anything except limit the consumer and put even more power into the corporations.
  2. They push a law so restrictive that other countries take advantage of the situation and develop better AI than we have. And yes, a technology this important has the ability to give one country a huge advantage.

It's an arms race right now. Either we adapt to these situations with enforcement, education, and containment, or other countries will control our behaviors through manipulation and propaganda. More laws and legislation is not going to magically fix the problem.

Good, let this trend continue with Twitter now.

No need to buy it. I'm already disappointed.

Lemmy.world has a bad habit of acting preemptively first and asking questions later.

All of the "a" samplers are ancestor samplers and will not converge on a final image. They will just keep on trying to "fix" the image with different variations. There's kind of no point in testing them, especially since they almost always have non-ancestral counterparts that work more deterministically.

Also, why is DPM++ 3M not in the conclusions? It seems off to me that the latest version of DPM++ is somehow worse than DPM++ 2M. Also, Euler and DDIM, some of the oldest samplers ever, are rated quite high here, and that already has me questioning the results.
