There was also the ZeniMax v Facebook trial and $500m judgement: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZeniMax_v._Oculus
But of course it sounds way more sinister if you tie his political donations to it.
Not easy to make the connection to Palmer being fired here. The case was decided much later and it equally involve John Carmack, who stayed at Meta much longer, until he left out of his own accord.

This logic has a key flaw: just the fact that the size of the space is different doesnt mean that every representable thing in the larger space is a thing we care about. E.g. a person with three hands may not have a representation in the smaller space, but we would never care about that. The actual question is: what is the difference in the amount of information encoded in a large image vs the small latent space and compare that to the difference in information between a large image and a small image. If those two differences are close enough together, being able to determine a legitimate difference between SD generated vs not becomes near impossible.
The logic is still the same. If the VAE is trained so that it is biased toward human preference, then the probability of false positives in real world images would increase.

Generally, the VAE is mapping from a small latent space to a large image space. This means that there must be a large number of images for which no reverse mapping exists.
It should be possible to identify images that have not been generate by the VAE since they are not part of the set images that the VAE can generate. The other way round is a bit more difficult as there may be images that can be mapped to the latent space and back without loss but have been generated in another way
-> there may be false positives.

I guess I look forward to seeing 'TheBloke' do a finetune with vram reqs. If my 3090 could fit a good quality quant I'd be interested. I tried to run a mixtral with vram / sys ram offloading and got garbage ouput, but that's probably down to some mistake I made.
Try Ollama or LM Studio. Mixtral and its finetunes work perfectly for me on my RTX3090 with offloading.

Why does the article have sentences like this? Is this really an objective article? (obviously not)
