Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics.
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

A lot of these machine learning models have been trained on art without their consent.
The entire AI art industry is basically rich megacorps exploiting small artists (who usually don't make much income) to fuel their ever growing profit machines.
Ever heard of open source models? Stable Diffusion was good before they decided to become irrelevant by not open sourcing their models anymore. But the old models (and derivatives of them) are still there.
From the newer ones there's Flux.
And if you want more power to the people, feel free to join AI Horde (for example through HordeNG), a cluster of people hosting AI workers for others, so that everyone has free access to open source text and image generation, regardless of their social status.
