stop wasting time. Yes you can run this on any hardware. The matter is it is either too slow, requires outrageous hardware, or obviously bad (no tool required to see that it is generated).
Who is going to pay $20/mo other than professionals? You'd assume professionals have professional hardware. A mid-range GPU or a video editing laptop is not exactly breaking the bank.

But again, that also applies to commercial generative images. They're easily discernible, if you just look. Midjourney is stable diffusion with a bunch of LoRA stacked on top. And it can't shed the "midjourney look" because of that. That's not in dispute by anyone.
100%, although dall-e is getting better with hands specifically.
Anyway, Microsoft can keep throwing compute on it until a point where it becomes impossible to distinguish fakes by sight and a mechanism like suggested will make sense.
But with homegrown ones I don't see it happening soon. Only those who spend a lot of money on top of the line GPUs and keep desktop PCs may get to that point. Those GPUs will jump in price like they did at crypto mining peak or become impossible to buy if Microsoft gets the government to require "AI license" for them.

Apple Music costs $10 and people easily spend ten times that on Patreon...
