You cannot own a Multiverse.

·1 min

The following quote is from a post by @swyx, titled Multiverse, not Metaverse:

But you cannot own a Multiverse. Whatever virtual land you “own”, my next favorite one is one seed away in a neighboring universe. Absolute nobodies can come up with new prompts and models for their own purposes, completely permissionlessly and autonomously. That is at once wonderful to the creative, sovereign individual, yet terrifying to the masters of our current universe.

Capitalism understands scarcity.

We’ll need a new model for infinity.


Multiverse, not Metaverse
Generative AI lets us explore Many worlds owned by Nobodies, and this is fundamentally better than One world owned by Somebody

First Encounter (A Free Wallpaper)

First Encounter is a wallpaper I created in collaboration with Stable Diffusion’s AI model. When working with generational AI, it is hard to say who should be credited for the creation of the work. Was it me who came up with the idea and thought of an appropriate prompt, or was it the model that did all the hard computational work?
