BrainDance: May 8, 2007; Disco all night long!

I think I pretty much nailed it, I'm gonna make a few more models with some tweaks but I think I got a depth model trained on my friends face that's going to work for replacing people in videos with him and making embarrassing videos where he's a Japanese pop star.

Way, way better results than my first model. It just seems like it takes a lot more training to get a depth model to work right. This is from a 4000 step 400 class image 50 training image model. I have a 250 training image set of him too but I think with more selection in the pictures it comes out better.

write an in-depth plot description of a sequel to The Thing (1982) where The Thing joins a japanese girl idol group while trying to evade the millitary posted:

The Thing, now free from the ice and seeking its own freedom, finds itself approached by The Idol Star Agency, a Japanese pop music girl idol group seeking a new �edgy� member. Yes, you read that right: a girl idol group. Initially apprehensive, the Thing soon falls in love with the idea of a clean life and perfect identity, permanently in disguise as its new �Ai Nonaka� persona.

Along with the other teenage members of the Agency (and after undergoing intense Makeover-training sessions), the Thing joins the group of ambitious young girls vying for fame and success under the Agency�s guiding hand. Instantly raised to fame and experimented in the dizzyingly extremely competitive world of Japanese entertainment,the Thing struggles to keep its true identity a secret while thriving in the more laid-back environment offered by the Agency.

Little do they know, however, that the Agency�s competitors, several mysterious corporations, have their eyes set on the new member swaying fans their way. In an attempt to get the Thing away from their competition, they conspire to snatch the Thing and remake it into a weapon. While its idol comrades attempt to draw the attention of law enforcement and military away from it, the Thing has to deal with more direct threats and put its newfound talents to the test in order to escape capture and assure its safety.

The Thing and its Agency cohorts travel through the bustling cities of Japan and its rural depths, coming across a range of people, cultures and lifestyles in the process, as it continues to stay one step ahead from the people who are after it. With the help from unlikely allies, the Thing may be close to succeeding in its mission� until a surprise and unexpected rescue for the Thing appears in the form of a mysterious military program and global conspiracy.

Having escaped the Agency and its enemies, the Thing�s new mission falls on its shoulders as it discovers a history and a destiny that ties into the planet�s future, while also needing to juggle newfound reconciliation with its former idols. Will the Thing succeed in both matters?

write a in-description of reboot of Dexter's Laboratory as a teen drama on the CW network posted:

The CW reimagines the beloved Nickelodeon cartoon Dexter's Lab in an edgy teen drama! Dexter is a 15-year-old science genius navigating the complicated social hierarchy of high school and his ever-changing home life. No longer a bumbling lab rat, this teenage Dexter is a typically charismatic, boundary pushing genius who uses his invention to fix the messes of his own wrong-doings and those around him. With a curious combination of smarts, charm, and vulnerability, he races to solve any problem that gets in his way with the help of his fierce older sister Dee Dee and his eccentric grandmother, the eccentric Professor Williams. With their power base growing, they frequently come into conflict with the rich and powerful Astronomanov family and incur the wrath of the school�s principal, Ms. Keane. The show promises to keep us on the edge of our seats as we follow Dexter and his team as they solve the science themes while wrestling with teenage angst, social power play, family ups and downs, and hormones.

mcbexx: Jul 4, 2004; British dentistry is
not on trial here!

The more I'm playing around with masking and inpainting, the more I'm jonesing for a 4090. Especially since for the final touches, I found that upscaling an image and then using the result in the unified canvas to in-paint a better quality high-resolution face in.

Much better than rendering something first at a feasible resolution and just running GPFGAN and upscaling. Means that the bounding box/mask for a face can easily be 1000x1000 pixels, which is now taking so long on a 2070S/8GB that it's starting to bother me.

"Gaston, eat the eggs"

quote:

In the animated children's movie, there is a manly man named Gaston who is known for his strength and bravery. One day, while out on a walk, Gaston comes across a passing witch. Without thinking, Gaston insults the witch, calling her old and ugly. The witch, angered by Gaston's words, curses him with a spell.

Gaston, confused and frightened, asks the witch what she has done to him. The witch explains that she has cursed him to crave eggs, but he will never be able to eat enough to satisfy his hunger. Gaston, who had always prided himself on his strength and masculinity, is now humiliated and ashamed.

Throughout the rest of the movie, Gaston tries various methods to break the curse, but nothing seems to work. He becomes increasingly obsessed with finding a way to eat enough eggs to satisfy his hunger, but it never happens.

In the end, Gaston learns a valuable lesson about being more respectful and kind to others.

"Gaston, sing with the eggs"

quote:

Verse 1:
Gaston: I used to be so strong and brave
But now my curse has made me a slave
To my never-ending egg desire
I can't escape this eggy fire

Chorus:
Eggs: Gaston, Gaston, you're such a fool
You should have been more kind and cool
Now you're cursed, and it's all your fault
You'll be craving eggs, until you're old

Verse 2:
Gaston: I try to eat them, one by one
But my hunger is never done
I've tried everything, but to no avail
This curse will be my downfall

Chorus:
Eggs: Gaston, Gaston, you're such a fool
You should have been more kind and cool
Now you're cursed, and it's all your fault
You'll be craving eggs, until you're old

Bridge:
Gaston: I wish I could turn back time
And make amends for my crime
But it's too late, my fate is sealed
I'll be craving eggs, forever revealed

Chorus:
Eggs: Gaston, Gaston, you're such a fool
You should have been more kind and cool
Now you're cursed, and it's all your fault
You'll be craving eggs, until you're old

Outro:
Gaston: I'll never escape this curse
Eggs: You'll be craving eggs, until the end
Gaston: My fate is worse than death
Eggs: You'll be craving eggs, until your last breath.

"Gaston, rejected alternate ending"

quote:

As the girl gets to know Gaston, she starts to see the good within him, despite his eggshell exterior. She falls in love with him, and Gaston starts to feel the same way. But he is still a giant egg beast, and he is worried that the girl will never accept him as he is.

The girl, however, assures him that she sees beyond his appearance and that she loves him for who he is. Gaston, finally feeling loved, starts to believe that he might be able to break the curse. But as he tries to move in the joy of finally finding love, he tips over and cracks open.

The villagers, who have been suffering from a food shortage, see the giant egg breaking open and they rush to gather as many eggs as they can. Gaston's body is consumed by the villagers, but his spirit is at peace knowing that he finally found love before he met his end.

The movie ends with the villagers enjoying a feast of eggs, but with a melancholic feeling as they remember Gaston, the kind and caring egg monster, who despite his appearance, showed that true beauty lies within.

There's a weird edge of pettiness right from the start with the inclusion of DeviantArt as part of the defendants. Like, instead of going after OpenAI and Dall-E for a third example, they specifically chose a platform they have a personal grudge with and just happened to have declared their intent for their own AI image generation project. Presumably because ArtStation/Epic haven't actually done that last part yet.

If this actually goes to trial, it feels like it's going to come down entirely to how much each side is able to persuade the judge(s) of their technical definition of what this technology actually does under the hood.

Assuming they don't just settle out of court, though it seems if they did that the whole Art Twitter contingent would view these guys as class traitors and blacklist them or something. Probably the best outcome anyone can realistically hope for is the case is just dismissed without trial.

Without even one concrete example of an infringing (i.e., overfit) output, it seems like at least half of these causes ought fail to clear a 12(b)(6) motion.

There's auto1111, which is being developed by a crypto-racist eastern european weirdo, but has the most features by far. It's also a pain to install, but it's still the most popular UI just because of how popular it is.

There's cmdr2 which is a nice little meat-and-potatoes UI which I personally prefer most of the time, when I don't need a specific feature from Auto1111. Should be pretty easy to install.

Finally, InvokeAI. Very pretty and has a very nice inpainting/outpainting UI, but somewhat wonky under the hood at the moment. I've had a lot of technical issues getting it to work, but the outpainting is, indeed, very cool.

I have all three on my drives and use all three, depending on what I want to do.

Thanks for the links. I saw Auto1111's repo, I wanted to know if people had reasons to avoid it besides anything about the author, but if it actually works I might use it.

Edit: LOL, I installed the latest drivers and have CUDA 12.0, which means I can't install or build any of the ML frameworks because CuDNN hasn't come out for CUDA 12.0 yet. I don't want to mess with drivers and downgrade, so I'll just wait for that. :eng99:

The dreambooth extension got updated for M1 in November, paste the github in the Extensions tab and you should be golden, ignore the tensorflow errors and train on CPU. 2700 steps took me nine hours on M1 Max and it was overtrained anyway, leave your laptop overnight (don't forget to turn on Amphetamine) with the "save checkpoint every 500 steps" option on and then compare results

I am pretty sure automatic1111 does something similar, though I havent checked, because when I was messing with diffusers and tweaking things to get it to work I had uninstalled CUDA multiple times, switched versions multiple times, and it broke near everything, torch.cuda.is_available returned false and such, yet through it all automatic1111 kept running just fine.

Every single AI project is a dependency rats nest now though, all held together by gum and paper clips one upgrade away from the whole thing collapsing. ShivamShrirao's diffusers is currently, apparently, semi-broken and he hasn't been around for a few days to fix it. His dreambooth still trains, it's just off. As far as anyone can tell it's all because this was actually not a good idea and by going to accelerate 0.15.0 things are broken in a hard to pin down way, but changing a single line back and downgrading back to accelerate 0.12.0 fixes it.

Older versions of cuda don't install in some distros with the version of gcc they ship with, which leads to some solutions that arent super clean. Stuff like that, it's all just kinda unstable.

Unless they make possessing a transformer models as illegal as hard drugs they cant stop people from retraining it.

Honestly, this lawsuit is probably going to do more good for AI than bad if it goes to trial. I don't see how they actually can win it, especially with the argument they are putting forth. Heck, Sarah Anderson sabotaged the entire thing when she put out that article that admits AI can't actually reproduce her art, just vaguely look like her style (which is not actually copyrightable). Also, if they try to bring up Greg Rutkowski, the training dataset actually didn't contain any of his art in the first place. It was just art being classified to be by him since it looked similar to his style. All this will do is set a legal precedent of fair use. Even if the judge is some eldritch being who cringes at the mere thought of being forced to use a computer, they aren't going to be able to come up with specific art that infringes. Heck, an old judge might even work against them because process is not copyrightable, so they aren't really going to care how the technology works, but the results.
