You can't. If you could it would break the speed of causality and that would be a very big no no in terms of the laws of physics as we understand them.

KoboldAI is a way to run whatever engines you can throw into it. It's more a UX layer than any specific AI.
That said, it has the best ones I'm aware of.

> They instantly drive away all their customers.
(Possibly) Not the ones they want to target, big businesses.
Others are saying it's an error.
Collab is a lot of free GPU time being given away and it's getting increasingly used to run AI for open source hobby stuff like stable diffusion and koboldAI. I do not expect that it's sustainable.

Reply to How to be a sceptic | We have an ethical responsibility to adopt a sceptical attitude to everything from philosophy and science to economics and history in the pursuit of a good life for ourselves and others. by IAI_Admin
Skepticism is good, but group action is often also very good and often requires some degree of blind action.
You need both. A game of skeptics convincing followers and followers following what convinces them. AKA: democracy.

Reply to comment by HeroicDefector in Covid restrictions lifted in Chinese city of Guangzhou after protests | China by Miserable-Lizard
As far as I'm aware they were protesting the fact it was happening at all, and trying to get the police to reform, not to get that one guy in jail.
The protests weren't actually very successful, the aim was police reform and most places didn't see a bunch of police reform.
You could say they were somewhat successful, it certainly got a big chunk of public attention and discussion and debate. However, you need real change, not just chit chat.
The guy ended up in jail after a court case, and the court process always takes months. The courts also do not, ever, listen to things like protesters. They shouldn't.

All these people in Reddit trying to discredit the significance of something like this are almost certainly not genuine.

And your actions have consequences so it's perfectly fine to punish people for doing things like liking something that is bad
