5 months agoThis article is about the newest model, SD3 medium (2B). Previous Models such as SD2 and SDXL were also mostly unable to generate nudity, though they managed beach or summer images. The earliest SD1.5 is most capable of nudity, especially with the copious fine tunes focused on that. SD3 though completely freaks out as soon as it starts generating skin. Its straight up weird. Only winter images with full head to toe clothing produce humans at all. Its currently a landscape generator. Even realistic animals are hard for it. Whatever it successfully generates looks quite nice though. Pretty background wallpapers.
I dont really think so. I mean yea, too much money gets dumped into AI, but the dot com comparison doesn’t really work. The dot com bubble burst because investors realized that a ton of small companies(aunt-emmas-flowers.com or something), had no strategies and unsustainable business models. They were all massively overvalued. But Microsoft, Google, Tencent, Baidu are all large companies, they aren’t comparable and unlikely to suffer much if one of their investment fail. Additionally, AI is incredibly young and essentially still in beta, just because it works and can be used (and be profited from) doesn’t mean the current versions are more than mometized research projects. Yes that’s a problem if these are sold as full products, but that’s want they are. All users are currently testers for the AI companies. A lot of companies managed to get some of that sweet VC but that’s always been possible with the hype of that time. Now its just AI, gullible Investors have lost money since the invention of investing.
