@PurpCat@Tony@allison@nukie Spoke too soon, now there's a huge drama brewing on /hdg/ because of that model. Recap:
>when PonyXL was released, its author said he pruned many artist tags because of "ethic considerations" or some other bullshit
>anons speculate that their tags are hashed/obscured instead of being simply removed from the dataset
>someone on /vt/ randomly stubles upon a three letter tag that generates some shituber with nearly perfect accuracy
>this drives /hdg/ into frenzy, the hash hunt starts
>a couple of artist styles also get randomly found with the same three letter tags
>another tag (gpo) found that generates eldritch horror, becomes a local meme
>someone with beefy gpu promts all 26^3 tags and filters those that result in noticeable consistent style changes
>meanwhile other anons dig up ponyfag's discord messages and post screenshots
>apparently he left artist tags hashed so that he could prompt them in private
>also looks for monetization ventures, making some speculate he wants to paywall the styles
>later ponyfag visits the thread in person, comes up with a bunch of answers and threatens to paywall PonyXL V7
>the proompting community left in shambles while still trying to datamine more tags
