I still havent figured out nice lora training settings for like 108 images.

As a PeerTube instance owner, I would say that not everyone needs to join a single instance (that would be the biggest mistake). Instead, if you can self-host one and invite people you like and know, they can provide quality content. Also, having multiple smaller instances makes it easier to moderate and have quality control. Federation and direct subscription to channels also improve instance discovery.

Where do they get data from?

Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of the Open Model Initiative, a new community-driven effort to promote the development and adoption of openly licensed AI models for image, video and audio generation.

We believe open source is the best way forward to ensure that AI benefits everyone. By teaming up, we can deliver high-quality, competitive models with open licenses that push AI creativity forward, are free to use, and meet the needs of the community.

Ensuring access to free, competitive open source models for all. With this announcement, we are formally exploring all available avenues to ensure that the open-source community continues to make forward progress. By bringing together deep expertise in model training, inference, and community curation, we aim to develop open-source models of equal or greater quality to proprietary models and workflows, but free of restrictive licensing terms that limit the use of these models.

Without open tools, we risk having these powerful generative technologies concentrated in the hands of a small group of large corporations and their leaders. ‍ From the beginning, we have believed that the right way to build these AI models is with open licenses. Open licenses allow creatives and businesses to build on each other’s work, facilitate research, and create new products and services without restrictive licensing constraints. ‍ Unfortunately, recent image and video models have been released under restrictive, non-commercial license agreements, which limit the ownership of novel intellectual property and offer compromised capabilities that are unresponsive to community needs.

Given the complexity and costs associated with building and researching the development of new models, collaboration and unity are essential to ensuring access to competitive AI tools that remain open and accessible.

We are at a point where collaboration and unity are crucial to achieving the shared goals in the open source ecosystem. We aspire to build a community that supports the positive growth and accessibility of open source tools.

For the community, by the community Together with the community, the Open Model Initiative aims to bring together developers, researchers, and organizations to collaborate on advancing open and permissively licensed AI model technologies.

The following organizations serve as the initial members:

Invoke, a Generative AI platform for Professional Studios ComfyOrg, the team building ComfyUI Civitai, the Generative AI hub for creators LAION, one of the largest open source data networks for model training To get started, we will focus on several key activities:

•Establishing a governance framework and working groups to coordinate collaborative community development.

•Facilitating a survey to document feedback on what the open-source community wants to see in future model research and training

•Creating shared standards to improve future model interoperability and compatible metadata practices so that open-source tools are more compatible across the ecosystem

•Supporting model development that meets the following criteria: ‍

True open source: Permissively licensed using an approved Open Source Initiative license, and developed with open and transparent principles Capable: A competitive model built to provide the creative flexibility and extensibility needed by creatives Ethical: Addressing major, substantiated complaints about unconsented references to artists and other individuals in the base model while recognizing training activities as fair use. ‍We also plan to host community events and roundtables to support the development of open source tools, and will share more in the coming weeks.

Join Us We invite any developers, researchers, organizations, and enthusiasts to join us.

never give ai things you do not want to be public even if they let you opt out :)

Was switching reverse proxy recently and there was some stupid issue with on firefox trying to sign with self signed cert though now it should all work fine.

So what is usecase for this tool?

My friends Channel not much content lot about blender and open source :) https://peer.madiator.cloud/c/blender_dumbass

beetoons.tv I suspect it’s being videos synced without creators permissions :/

Installed Linux alongside windows 10. Cachy OS specific with drivers 555 running Wayland without any issues :)

To be true everything we post online can be used for training. Reddit is just made for money :P Kinda using more Lemmy now for posting and reddit just for browsing like archive.

Ye NVIDIA sadly they have CUDA monopoly and AMD AI is not yet mature :/

I’m still using x11 as Wayland always make my screen blinking and tearing no metter what distro or driver version.

From what I see PS4 with firmware 11.00 and under can be JB

Funny fact I just was thinking about asking if we could have good alternative for Stackoverflow that supports federation.

As an PeerTube instance admin ( I self host mine) the global search need to be enabled by admin otherwise it will only search content of local instance though it only affects search not direct query or user channels URLs. Trending system usually is based on channels that are being subscribed by users of specific instance. about P2P it’s possible to disable it by admin instance to get direct connection without sharing.

It got bloated and something was affected network speeds.

I switched my server to AlmaLinux after Debian started making mess.

I have backup on my self hosted git :D

For me mastodon was worst experience from side of admin of instance and from user experience too. Thinking it’s a little bit overcomplicated and limited. On the other hand hosting services like Lemmy and PeerTube are just breez :)
