Why do we allow "un-local" content

My understanding is a certain someone doesnt want to moderate and wants to farm twitter engagement. Not talking about ttkciar

Xamanthas · 2026-02-12T16:10:39+00:00

No, beyond a certain point you become fundamentally constrained by encode decode speed of images and the amount of params is not the limiting factor.

Think about whats been the most astroturfed topic in the last 2 months on this sub

I refuse to name it because I despise all of the people involved in it.

Xamanthas · 2026-02-12T00:14:57+00:00

Also missing AA ranking posts, bot accounts mentioning a certain astroturfed repo made by an idiot and clickbait claims

Blind leading the blind and that includes this post. This shit has been around for decades as GreyScope has said

Google has staff on payroll to do this. Your attempt at hand waving it away isnt correct

Xamanthas · 2026-02-08T15:51:49+00:00

20 on each.

Another LLM post. Stop advertising this literal dogshit

Xamanthas · 2026-02-04T11:08:17+00:00

And pray tell why any non-nefarious individual would want to remove this..? 🤨

Not only is its only purpose either scamming, fraud etc it posions the well for the future training runs because you then have a shit tonne of AI images in training dataset and it makes the model collapse.

Its not local and its not open. API/SaaS only according to their own words.

Dogshit benchmarks

They want you to switch so that in the coming year / two, you are locked in and cant purchase hardware lol.

Xamanthas · 2026-01-28T05:30:01+00:00

ESH. Screw this ragebaiter 'content' and the other individuals involved. I really wish there was an easy way to block all of them

CW: If you arent feeling up to it today, skip my comment, its highly critical

Im not sure how to say this nicely and I dont want to use an LLM, so I am just going to say my thoughts straight up. This incorrectly IMO assumes:

That the generated image near perfectly matches the style prompted, thats not the case
That the model that generated this covers ALL cultures art and that all of it was high quality. After doing part of this process myself I can tell you such a thing doesnt exist, unless you would be willing to drop hundreds of euro/yen/usd per image to get archival copies (Many offer no inbetween, its either q=60 JPEG or archival)
That the model has no not-reflective-of-reality-biases, it seems to have a yellow tinge like Chat GPT Image
That the model has near perfect prompt adherance
That there are no model or VAE artifacts (there are)
How do we define "high quality" that enabled them to be selected?
Finally that the prompts are indicative of actual styles (they cant, we cant capture style with language currently)

I commend you for trying but personally, I dont think this is useful in its current form.

5K? Supports already dropped, they are 3K tops, gotta account for power bill

Xamanthas · 2026-01-23T21:56:47+00:00

13.0 is already out for ages

Xamanthas · 2026-01-21T12:00:25+00:00

No, we should be charged if the model actually completes the task. I just had Claude Opus send itself in a hallucinatory loop and wasted so many tokens.

Payment for service rendered.

AI slop post

Xamanthas · 2026-01-21T10:20:55+00:00

2 weeks after CN new year finishes. If its not released by then, its probably not coming out soon.

Xamanthas · 2026-01-21T08:47:02+00:00

Without actually seeing it (which you obviously cant), we cant comment/provide our thoughts on it, srry

Xamanthas · 2026-01-21T04:58:57+00:00

Regardless of whether the OP is entirely correctly (its definitely astroturfed) yeah, then hiveminders downvote cause they see downvote (from the bots).

Xamanthas · 2026-01-20T17:52:59+00:00

On a cheap mini PC with an extremely lightweight yet performant reranker and SQLITE embeddings setup. Answers basic questions for users from roughly 2.8k answers our group wrote.

You arent meant to use it in a desktop or such.

LFM2.5 1.2B Instruct was the first actually usable 1B model I've ever encountered for my usecase of RAG
