Stable Diffusion for broke people?
  • There are a few.

    Draw things https://drawthings.ai

    Diffusionbee https://diffusionbee.com

    Are apps available on macos. Not sure about other platforms.

    Other than that a more complex approach is installing automatic1111 which is a web interface that runs locally. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqXpAKVQDNU

    Just had a little look at ^ this guy's YouTube channel and he has guides to install stuff on windows too if that's needed for ya.

  • AI is being used to give dead, missing kids a voice they didn’t ask for
  • This is inarguably horrible but the use of AI seems irrelevant. You could make this same thing with any animation tool. It's the idea that's disgusting.

    Do you think AI is mentioned because it makes the article seem more up to the minute and in keeping with current tech trends?

    "A man drew a disgusting picture of a horrible event using pencils and paper this week."

    "Pencils and paper are so awful."

  • When AI Is Making Music, Where Do the Humans Fit In?
  • I think it's most likely to take the role of the commercial songwriters that write formulaic pop. The people that team up with folks like Ed Sheeran and Lewis Capaldi to squeeze an album out of them in time to fulfill their contracts.

    The formulaic pop won't be much different. The pop stars will be much the same with up to date fashion. The people at the label will make more money because there will be fewer people to pay.

    Writing music as a commercial venture is already pretty icky in my mind. It's sort of the artistic equivalent of learning pickup lines and using them on people rather than having an interesting conversation.

    Music as art won't die but jobs as commercial composers and songwriters will dwindle.

  • Synth Treehouse // Weekly Discussion - July 14, 2023
  • I need to work as much as possible this week in order to have enough money to pay rent, fix my car, pay for pet insurance and try to save money to be able to buy a house so I don't have to give most of my money to a stranger every month.

    If I have a moment to make some music, I will. Probably sketching on the MPC live in the hope that I'll have more time to finish a track in the future.

    To hope 🥂
