What ?

Unrelated, but I hate how AI now just creates completely unnecessary comparison tables for everything and people apparently like them.

Thanks for sharing! Looks promising!

Tensent models are insanely impressive, but their community license ruins them so hard

why does everything have to be used commercially?

I personally see it not as "commercial unavailability", but "work contamination"! No matter how many hours I invest into learning or experimenting with a piece of software/model, all my work would remain bound by the terms of a nonfree license.

The spirit of open-source isn't about just commercial availability, it's about freedom of action, or libre you might say. I'd move from the US to the EU, and suddenly, I legally lose access to all my work because of the 3rd, 12th and 21st lines in the license file,

THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT DOES NOT APPLY IN THE EUROPEAN UNION... ...IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE TERRITORY
“Model Derivatives” shall mean all... ...or Output of Tencent HY-WORLD 2.0...
We grant You, for the Territory only, a non-exclusive...

Is your work truly yours when you're severely limited in what you can do with it?

“Free software” does not mean “noncommercial.” On the contrary, a free program must be available for commercial use, commercial development, and commercial distribution. This policy is of fundamental importance—without this, free software could not achieve its aims.

We want to invite everyone to use the GNU system, including businesses and their workers. That requires allowing commercial use. We hope that free replacement programs will supplant comparable proprietary programs, but they can't do that if businesses are forbidden to use them. We want commercial products that contain software to include the GNU system, and that would constitute commercial distribution for a price. Commercial development of free software is no longer unusual; such free commercial software is very important. Paid, professional support for free software fills an important need.

Thus, to exclude commercial use, commercial development or commercial distribution would hobble the free software community and obstruct its path to success. We must conclude that a program licensed with such restrictions does not qualify as free software.

A free program must offer the four freedoms to any would-be user that obtains a copy of the software, who has complied thus far with the conditions of the free license covering the software in any previous distribution of it. Putting some of the freedoms off limits to some users, or requiring that users pay, in money or in kind, to exercise them, is tantamount to not granting the freedoms in question, and thus renders the program nonfree.

You didn't answer the question; not everything has to be used commercially.

The FSF and their gaslighting might be the worst thing that has happened.

Yes, you can legally "sell" free software but no one's going to buy it IF THEY CAN GET A COPY FOR FREE.

Also GNU is not an "operating system", that is a brainworm Stallman got 40 years ago and has been repeating since.

Plenty of world models around nowadays. Is anyone using them for something or are they still just for demos?

Mickenfox@reddit

In principle, world models are a big deal for robotics and anything that requires physical reasoning.

Like how LLMs predict language, and then get "flipped around" with some training so they can answer questions using that knowledge, a model that can predict that a door will open when you turn the handle, should be able to predict that if you want to open the door, you should turn the handle.

I think these models will get incorporated into language models somehow so they can truly start thinking in physical terms, which is one of their biggest weaknesses. Like that question about whether you should walk or drive to the car wash? That gets solved if the model can actually visualize a car and a car wash.

In the short term though? I imagine you could spawn 3D models into any game...

How does one run these? It doesn't sound like ComfyUI can run world model and pass inputs to it.
