So I did the thing before I chickened out (or came to my senses) and threw up a GFM as a stop gap measure. I hate doing it more than anyone will hate seeing another fund raiser.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

I have to believe that people still care about human creativity, and human made wonders.
I refuse to accept the nihilism being peddled by those who say AI is inevitable. It's a choice.

Important to note; Japan has way stricter laws around laying people off. Actual protections from its government that force companies to do things like have execs take pay cuts before doing a mass layoff. The solution to this problem is not a “good” CEO. It’s systemic and complete reform.
I remember a time Nintendo leader Satoru Iwata took a paycut himself to prevent laying off developers. They really don't make the like they used to.
Layoffs begin at Xbox
