Well here's my TIL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_copyright

Best of luck to you. I’d save this post and if you ever get the chance to say “I told you so…”. Well, I’m not saying I wouldn’t.

You might have better luck in the r/StableDiffusion, r/Midjourney, or r/AIGrinding if you’re looking for help with things related to image production. This sub tends to be a little more technical and broadly focused on ML in general.

Edit: And yeah, sorry you need to work on your pitch a little bit. Programmers get pitched about a thousand ideas a minute from people who think they have “the next big app.” We also have day jobs so putting a lot into someone else’s project has to come with some concrete ideas and promises.

“Earlier this year, I formed an LLC with a long-time friend who shares the same expertise …”

Which is what, exactly?

I mean... maybe we've invented AI not because machines are trainable but because humans are?

On phone so can’t read the blog yet: does it say how well it handles false positives? ie, flagging stuff not written by GPT as being written by GPT?

I could see a really shitty world coming about where the filter is effectively useless because everyone will need to have to make sure their content will pass the watermark detector.

In all of these cases you're actually running code on someone else's hardware, not just using software that they or other people have written and distributed. I think there's an argument that once software is written the ultimate cost and benefit of open sourcing it can be a net positive but in these instances you're literally asking someone else to the pay the electricity bill for you. And a lot of these platforms *do* actually offer some level of free compute resources or will give them to you if you can write a convincing grant.

I could see an argument for cloud storage and computing provided as a public service but that's also a big can of worms and I don't see the societal need yet in the same way that say, Internet should be.

Going to point out a piece that seems to get overlooked: if there's a concept/idea you're not familiar with and it's a relatively new concept not found in textbooks, it's probably introduced and explored in one of the citations. Not all the citations will be useful but they are a basic dependency map of what you need to know to follow a field.

Secondly, depending on the age of the citation it is highly likely you can find the paper (or a draft version at least) for free on the author's website or they author will email it to you if you ask kindly.
