I can probably answer, but I'm not sure if I get the question. You want to know the banned practices?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I guess? I want to know in general what the regulations do to things that aren't algorithm usage by police/banks/etc. so what would the impact be on the more recent LLMs like GPT and Mistral and the image-gens like SD etc.?

My main concern is restrictions on FOSS alternatives. If corpos are the only ones who can in practice have AI due to licensing fees etc, then everything is completely lost.

Cool. I wrote a fairly lengthy post on that in the comments here.

I don't think they are in compliance with EU law. You can still possess and use them legally, but businesses that offer them to EU residents may be fined. Unless I missed something, private use, even professional use (EG for writing code) is fine. You wouldn't want to build a business around hosting open models in the EU, though.
