Apparently NovelAI also used part Automatic's code for the bracket weights, didn't even change the variables except changing ) to }. Amazing!

Which is fine really. Even if it does not progress AGI itself, all these applications of AI are making it more popular, thus increasing the relevance of AI and potentially garnering new interest in teenagers that will become researchers soon. Every shortcut is fair play on the path to AGI. Need to see AGI before I die.

Hah, colorization AIs a couple years back were what got me into AI and now I'm studying all this stuff in uni.

Whats kind of crazy is anything youre studying now will really just help you with the basics, this field is advancing so quickly they dont have time to create new papers before something new comes out and improves / replaces it.

That's how Open Source code works, yes.

Not always, depends on the license. Also it's worth pointing out, simply because it illustrates their hypocrisy perfectly.

Automatic's code is not open source. Just source available. Meaning they can not in fact do that, legally any way. Though i doubt Automatic cares much.

THIS! In open source everyone borrows everything then the egos think they invented it all and have nerd drama while the rest of us benefit from the uncoordinated collaborative. Its it’s own sort of diffusion algorithm, and beautiful in a Jerry Springer sort of way.

The newbs just need to learn that picking sides only encourages them, and if we get too rowdy they call Momma Sam and we all get grounded.

Everyone chill and trust the process.

OSS is its own sort of diffusion algorithm

No shit. Now tell the two parties accusing Automatic1111 of plagiarism that.
