    Can someone explain to me how these AIs work?

    Specifically: Is it possible to just take a USB drive, download the program, and upload it somewhere else so that everyone can torrent the AI? How big is it? Even if it's really big, there has to be a way to copy these things for free, right?

      The model? Yes You can do that. You can even do something like torrents on the inference via the ai horde

      Which AIs? Stable diffusion is already open source, and the model files are free to download from various places and are usually between 2 and 10GB. Llama checkpoints are a bit bigger, but the biggest Llama 2 file is still only 128GB I think.
