Reply to comment by TemetN in It's unfortunate that AI can only be developed by large, well funded groups by Scarlet_pot2

A public project would be great. I'm sure there are thousands of people willing to get involved. We probably have at least a few hundred on this sub. The main thing would be to get organized and spread the word, which is ironically difficult in this age of the internet

LAION launched a petition for one, but the petition site is down for maintenance currently. Bad timing honestly.

That's definitely a positive move. The only issue is that people at LAION will probably decide who gets access and when. Still much better then corps or gov tho, but more projects would be good. Maybe a distributed training network where people could contribute compute over the internet? Along with a push to give anyone who wants it free training on ML / AI. Those two things would help decentralize AI
