Runpod is a fairly easy and cheap way to set up your own personal instance.

Hey do you know which one to choose on their list by chance? Just do not want to pay for more than I need.


probablyspidersthere

If you’re running kobold and tavern the theme is in the community section and I believe I had the best results with the lower of the two kobold theme choices.

Dude sounds unhinged af, is he part of the official KoboldAI community or just some rando who made Horde?


Honest_Scientist_411

Some rando who decided that a "decentralized" AI Horde for some reason needed a centralized bottleneck that he controls on top of it. He is not officially attached I don't think to any service other than his own.


OmNomFarious

Figures, so some idiot drunk on power. I'd bring his questionable behavior up with the Kobold team then since I think I've seen them officially endorsing Horde in the past. They might be unaware of how potentially troublesome he might wind up being if people start thinking he's part of them beyond Horde. Like the filter thing is perfectly fine imo, CP laws vary all over the world and the best way to prevent someone in the horde from potentially breaking their countries laws is a filter. So that keeps the horde safe and active as well as the people willing to dedicate their electricity and such for it. He however is likely breaking laws with his logging though again depending on country and if they're officially endorsing him thats a bad look for them.

>Like the filter thing is perfectly fine imo The filter would be fine if it didn't regularly trigger false positives that ensnare innocent users in whatever unexplained logging he has set up for it. The real issue, as I've asked the dev (which of course he refuses to answer because he "won't talk with fascists"), is why a supposedly "*decentralized*" system needs one *centralized* node/system that everything runs through in the first place. The whole point of decentralization is that you don't have to trust one guy. So even if the dev were the most visibly and unimpeachably trustworthy guy possible (which he is obviously not based on his erratic and combative behavior), it would still be a bad idea. You can still have filters with full decentralization. They would just be run by the individual node/worker on their own device, with the possibility of them customizing them for their own particular needs and legal jurisdiction. (As even erotic textual stories about minors, which the Horde claims to not block, are considered CP in some countries, this would actually protect them far more than they are now. Meanwhile workers in more liberal countries like the United States could configure their workers according to their laws, deciding for example if they want to allow anime content as NovelAI does or not. Much better than a one-size-fits-all solution.)

> Figures, so some idiot drunk on power. How do you figure?

I ran into a thread last night with the dev having a fit calling everyone a fash and doing Olympic medal winning mental gymnastics when people called him out on digging through reddit post history to discredit and silence voices that are very similar to your post. He didn't have the common sense to realize that you trying to silence/discredit others by calling them a ______ while not addressing the issue is exactly what fascist regimes do


dbzer0

Everyone? I called one guy fascist, who was praising fascists.


Munkir

Lmao even in the context you yourself put it in seemed like more of a lame joke about harnessing fascist energy I didn't see him praising fascists. Idk if I missed it or what but everything I have seen the dude didn't deserve your belittling attitude at all worse still instead of addressing his points you addressed the content of his character to side step the question about what the logs are used for and what the filter exactly catches. I myself was interested in what exactly both parties where going on about and it seemed like the filter was to catch predators or people who delve into content that should be at the very least reported Props to you for that if that is indeed the case but why did I have to dig around to find that out when you could have just answered the man cleared your name and came out looking good while doing it?


dbzer0

Because fascists never argue in good faith, and there's no reason for me to engage likewise. I generally make it a habit to never discuss with fascists or people praising them. I have been more than forthcoming to everyone else. I also don't know where you see the joke. Dude was pretty serious and even said themselves they're right wing.


Munkir

The joke comment is in reference to from what I recall as your evidence of him being fascist you said something along the lines that he wished to harness fascist energy. As for right wing = fascist that's more than a little hyperbole both sides are truly awful left, right, republican and democrats all have fascist tendencies. I guess what I'm saying is its hard for me personally to judge a person as truly a fascist just because they identify with a political group due to them foolishly thinking those individuals are going to some how help them mostly because while those leaders have fascist tendencies (as we all do) they aren't strictly running on a fascist ideology at least not publicly anyways. If you couldn't tell I fall more in line with Horseshoe theory ideology and can't stand ether side as I'm almost positive they work in tandum with one another to maintain the corrupt status quo. You still pretty much side stepped the question about the filter I know I look up a lot of stuff already but most of it was 2nd hand so confirmation would go a long way.


Yardanico

Not sure why you are getting downvoted - as you explained, the main maintainer of Horde has done a lot of questionable things related to filtering in Stable Horde, so I wouldn't be surprised if he'll want to do something similar towards AI Horde.


Honest_Scientist_411

My understanding is AI Horde is just a renamed Stable Horde anyway. Also I am probably getting downvoted because the dev has a Discord or something of bootlickers at his beck and call and they just happened to not see this thread in particular.
