@Scobleizer Are you telling the world that, of all companies* named over the last few years, Apple is going to be the one delivering the #Metaverse*?

*no, Meta has not done the metaverse. Meta has done a Wii inside a motorcycle helmet.
**sorry for the dirty word. I couldn’t help myself.

Oh my. #ControlNet doesn’t just work with Img2Img. It also works with the Inpaint mode.

This allows an extreme level of control over what portion of the image you want to transform.

Some preliminary tests (weird tests, I know): https://t.co/MgtAGjx2sH

This is made with @nousr_’s Robo Diffusion v1 (for some reason I can’t make SD2.x-based models work with #ControlNet on macOS)

@mgsiegler It’s a collectible item. Touch it, but just a bit.

Yes, like that.

Wait. Did you wash your hands first?

@CathieDWood In my 9y in Red Hat, I always told employees, customers, and journalists to think about automation as a way to scale IT operations, not as a threat to IT jobs.
AI is not automation (even if they are correlated), but this is a great analogy.

@Merzmensch I started my career in cybersecurity. Ethical hacking is about breaking things and pushing for bad things to happen before bad things happen to people that suffer real consequences.

@Merzmensch Sure. First and foremost people want to be entertained, and this is a form of entertainment for most. Like watching a horror movie.

But beyond that, it’s critical that the collectiveness tests the limits of a new technology, artificially triggering bad things before they happen

@jonclemonsjp @hardmaru Why are you holding back, Jon? Dream big.

For all the #AIart enthusiasts out there who were planning to test ControlNet this weekend, this is the fastest and easiest way. What a great work. https://t.co/nrBKOOv5VP

@samcharrington Cheap.
