RE: Disco Diffusion + Photography

in Alien Art Hive3 years ago

That's an I teresting program. It sounds like it would be kind of fun to see what it comes up with. But I'm sure the novelty wears off pretty quickly. To me the wizard version looks best. It looks the most intentional and less random then the others.

Sort:  

The main problem is the time it takes to make one of the variations. And google is limiting GPU that is willing to give you for free :D so it is a long process with mixed results. but it does have endless possibilities and when ever you think you had enough of it you get something cool 😀

wizard is simple but nice edit. other are a bit too much.

FWIW, Google's premium options seem to be fairly inexpensive for what kind of GPU horsepower they grant you.

seen some people talking about that pro and pro + options and prices, if you are doing something serious prices look ok.

I've been on Google for many years, at least a decade. Using mostly Drive for docs but I kept running out of storage space, more so because of my email, so I went the plus route and find it is worth it, the price of a cup of coffee for a month (at the level I am on).
For photos I got a Flickr Pro account, unlimited storage. It doesn't break the bank either.

That's probably by design. It just messes with you to keep you coming back so they can mine your data, until it thinks that your about to leave at which point it gives you something good to start the process over again...😂

I'm just joking but that's kind of what it sounds like to me, an algorithm built to keep you on site haha 😆

i mean we are teaching AI with google computers so i am sure they are using it for something. Never got into how colablaboratory works, but i am sure they are not giving it for free just because 😂

I don't even know what colablaboratory is. Do I want to know?
Lol

my understanding of it is that google gives you their cool computers with cool GPU units so you can run AI training for scripts that you written (or others did). Why no idea :D

but i am not sure because i always go backward when trying something, first make it work with most simple tutorial and then click buttons to see what will happen :)

Okay that's interesting. Yeah I'm sure they have their reasons for doing it though. They probably own anything created on the device I'm guessing. Just a guess though 🤷‍♂️
