I Made 5 AI Generated Consoles in DiffusionBee ...

Messing around with control net and DiffusionBee, trying to make mundane zip code postcards. This is Collin's Ford Bridge in Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge (formerly Jefferson Proving Ground), Indiana, 47023.

To be clear I added the text to the image in photoshop.

Anon's explanation:

I’m curious because I see a lot of people claiming to be anti-AI, and in the same post advocating for the use of Glaze and Artshield, which use DiffusionBee and Stable Diffusion, respectively. Glaze creates a noise filter using DiffusionBee; Artshield runs your image through Stable Diffusion and edits it so that it reads as AI-generated. You don’t have to take my work for it. Search for DiffusionBee and Glaze yourself if you have doubts. I’m also curious about machine translation, since Google Translate is trained on the same kinds of data as ChatGPT (social media, etc) and translation work is also skilled creative labor, but people seem to have no qualms about using it. The same goes for text to speech—a lot of the voices people use for it were trained on professional audiobook narration, and voice acting/narration is also skilled creative labor. Basically, I’m curious because people seem to regard these types of gen AI differently than text gen and image gen. Is it because they don’t know? Is it because they don’t think the work it replaces is creative? Is it because of accessibility? (and, if so, why are other types of gen AI not also regarded as accessibility? And even then, it wouldn’t explain the use of Glaze/Artshield)

Additional comments from anon:

I did some digging by infiltrating (lurking in) pro-AI spaces to see how much damage Glaze and other such programs were doing. Unfortunately, it turns out none of those programs deter people from using the ‘protected’ art. In fact, because of how AI training works, they may actually result in better output? Something about adversarial training. It was super disappointing. Nobody in those spaces considers them even a mild deterrent anywhere I looked. Hopefully people can shed some light on the contradictions for me. Even just knowing how widespread their use is would be informative. (I’m not asking about environmental impact as a factor because I read the study everybody cited, and it wasn’t even anti-AI? It was about figuring out the best time of day to train a model to balance solar power vs water use and consumption. And the way they estimated the impact of AI was super weird? They just went with 2020’s data center growth rate as the ‘normal’ growth rate and then any ‘extra’ growth was considered AI. Maybe that’s why it didn’t pass peer review... But since people are still quoting it, that’s another reason for me to wonder why they would use Glaze and Artshield and everything. That’s why running them locally has such heavy GPU requirements and why it takes so long to process an image if you don’t meet the requirements. It’s the same electricity/water cost as generating any other AI image.)

Hey tronblr. It's sysop. Let's talk about the Midjourney thing.

(There's also a web-based version of this over on reindeer flotilla dot net).

Hey tronblr. It's sysop. Let's talk about the AI thing for a minute.

Automattic, who owns Tumblr and WordPress dot com, is selling user data to Midjourney. This is, obviously, Bad. I've seen a decent amount of misinformation and fearmongering going around the last two days around this, and a lot of people I know are concerned about where to go from here. I don't have solutions, or even advice -- just thoughts about what's happening and the possibilities.

In particular... let's talk about this post, Go read it if you haven't. To summarize, it takes aim at Glaze (the anti-AI tool that a lot of artists have started using). The post makes three assertions, which I'm going to paraphrase:

It's built on stolen code.

It doesn't matter whether you use it anyway.

So just accept that it's gonna happen.

I'd like to offer every single bit of this a heartfelt "fuck off, all the way to the sun".

Let's start with the "stolen code" assertion. I won't get into the weeds on this, but in essence, the Glaze/Nightshade team pulled some open-source code from DiffusionBee in their release last March, didn't attribute it correctly, and didn't release the full source code (which that particular license requires). The team definitely should have done their due diligence -- but (according to the team, anyway) they fixed the issue within a few days. We'll have to take their word on that for now, of course -- the code isn't open source. That's not great, but that doesn't mean they're grifters. It means they're trying to keep people who work on LLMs from picking apart their tactics out in the open. It sucks ass, actually, but... yeah. Sometimes that's how software development works, from experience.

Actually, given the other two assertions... y'know what? No. Fuck off into the sun, twice. Because I have no patience for this shit, and you shouldn't either.

Yes, you should watermark your art. Yes, it's true that you never know whether your art is being scraped. And yes, a whole lot of social media sites are jumping on the "generative AI" hype train.

That doesn't mean that you should just accept that your art is gonna be scraped, and that there's nothing you can do about it. It doesn't mean that Glaze and Nightshade don't work, or aren't worth the effort (although right now, their CPU requirements are a bit prohibitive). Every little bit counts.

Fuck nihilism! We do hope and pushing forward here, remember?

As far as what we do now, though? I don't know. Between the Midjourney shit, KOSA, and people just generally starting to leave... I get that it feels like the end of something. But it's not -- or it doesn't have to be. Instead of jumping over to other platforms (which are just as likely to have similar issues in several years), we should be building other spaces that aren't on centralized platforms, where big companies don't get to make decisions about our community for us. It's hard. It's really hard. But it is possible.

All I know is that if we want a space that's ours, where we retain control over our work and protect our people, we've gotta make it ourselves. Nobody's gonna do it for us, y'know?

I recently created my first LORA in #DiffusionBee. What that means is I created my own smaller specialized model of data within an LLM or large language model. It's a tiny technical concept but I'm proud of myself for doing it. My first LORA used a sample of 1,600 images. What this means is I can now start increasingly training the model from my own data. This image grows out of that in combination with my ongoing generative painting program with #Processing. I like how my faint straight lines suggest a kind of aging or crinkling in the image. As always the person in this portrait does not exist.....it is an aggregate.

Hey friend , which app do ypu use for the Ai?

DiffusionBee on a Mac. The model is Flux.1

[gwynndolin]

once again will not get over the irony of Glaze plagiarizing DiffusionBee’s code. Like do we care about plagiarism or not lol

بهترین ابزارهای رایگان برای کار با هوش مصنوع

دنیا به‌سرعت در حال تغییر است و یکی از اصلی‌ترین موتورهای این تغییر، چیزی نیست جز «هوش مصنوعی». ابزاری که زمانی تنها در فیلم‌های علمی-تخیلی دیده می‌شد، اکنون در زندگی روزمره ما نفوذ کرده است و مرزهای خلاقیت، یادگیری و تعامل را جابه‌جا می‌کند. اما اگر به شما بگوییم که برای استفاده از این فناوری شگفت‌انگیز نیازی به پرداخت هزینه‌های گزاف ندارید، چه؟ بله، ابزارهای رایگان هوش مصنوعی در دسترس‌اند و می‌توانند شما را به دنیایی پر از شگفتی وارد کنند. آماده‌اید تا با بهترین‌های آن آشنا شوید؟

هوش مصنوعی مولد اثر هنری

تصور کنید که بتوانید تنها با چند کلمه، یک تصویر بی‌نظیر خلق کنید. این رویا، دیگر محدود به نقاشان و هنرمندان دیجیتال نیست؛ «هوش مصنوعی ساخت عکس رایگان» حالا در دستان شماست. کافی است ایده‌ای در ذهن داشته باشید، آن ��ا به زبان بیاورید و تماشا کنید که چطور این ابزارها جادوی خود را به نمایش می‌گذارند.

while im busy upsetting 90% of tumblr i also regret to inform you that the glaze/nightshade developers have a noted history of code plagiarism to develop glaze. it's not relevant to the wider point of glaze/nightshade being useful but i think it's indicative of the snake oil on sale. this came up because people kept asking me to source what i meant when i said glaze & nightshade used stable diffusion (DiffusionBee is a GPL-licensed stable diffusion interface).

i feel quite bad for people who are convinced nightshade and glaze are going to fix the balance of power in the art world because it really won't. they're quite useless and extremely easily circumvented, but trying to tell anyone this results in you getting shouted down. buddy i wish it worked too!
