@bildoperationen@tldr.nettime.org few thoughts. 1.we are past "onboarding" .the military, is on board; the boat is afloat, AI bubble not bursting bc war economy. 2. what this means for image generators is unclear yet. one cautious guess: one part (slopaganda etc) will just get more normalised. about another part (small custom made models) we just dont know yet.

@hito@tldr.nettime.org Thank you! Totally agree, although I'd see «onboarding» as a continuous process. Academia is still in the middle of it, and although the war machine is the big prize, the tech companies are also highly interested in education and universities, because it easily scales and provides secure revenue once the institutions are on board (and they are eager to get on board)
