This problem becomes even more asinine when you consider that the whole point of the Return to Office drive is the “Magic Hallway Conversation” that happens during those informal break time periods.

It seems that ampwall.com may come sometime as an alternative to Bandcamp? Time will tell…

I agree. My 3070 runs the 8B Llama3 model in about 250ms, especially for short responses.

So the way I used to get consistent characters was using a mix of:

img2img (denoise: 0.7) with the same model posed into the position desired.

Then using a weighted down character lora and a weighted down celeb name, to help give a consistent base.

And finally a prompt with all the same details each time. (Well apart from changing expressions in the prompt each time.)

Wait. So the way to get consistent characters without LoRA training is to use a LoRA?

I think it’s kind of like how politicians “pause” their political campaigns when they concede. Technically they could come back to it, but almost certainly won’t.

It’s a direct competitor to Notion, but also other knowledge management apps (Obsidian, Evernote, etc.)

Thanks for sharing this article. I agree that those points mentioned are not possible for GenAI. It is a pipe dream that GenAI is capable of global governance, because it can’t really understand the implications of what it means. It’s a Clever Hans and just outputs what it thinks that you want to see.

I think that with GenAI there are some job classes that are in danger (tech support continues to shrink for common cases, etc.), but mostly the entry-level positions. Ultimately, someone who actually knows what’s going on would need to intervene.

Similarly for things like writing or programming, GenAI can produce okay work, but it needs to be prompted by someone who can understand the bigger picture and check it’s work. Writing becomes more editing in this case, and programming becomes more code review.
