I've also built a similar service[1] that does this with inpainting instead of textual inversion, so it preserves the face exactly and returns in seconds, not hours.
For you the important part is informing us what happens to the data with a Privacy Policy, and I would also have a Terms of Service requiring uploaders to acknowledge the rights of others, including privacy and intellectual rights.
No, I mean the uploader can upload any photo and your Terms of Service should specify what constitutes misuse. You are not legally required to have a Terms of Service, and the photos people upload are not published, but it still doesn't hurt to create an agreement.
You can put a "By uploading an image you agree to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy" text on the website with the links. This is not a legal advice of course, I cannot be sure that this makes your Terms of Service enforceable, but this is how others like Imgur do it.
I noticed that too and it does appear to be using spot instances. I have a feeling if it was ran without you may see much better startup times. Spot instances on GCP are hit and miss and you sort of have to build that into your workflow.
In my experience GPU persistent instances often simply don't boot up on GCP due to lack of available GPUs. One reason I didn't choose GCP at my last company.
I think it was us-east1 or us-east4. Had issues getting TPUs as well in us-central1. I know someone at a larger tech company who was told to only run certain workflows in a specific niche European region as that's the only one that had any A100 GPUs most of the time.

Yes, and that's the main reason why I like it. You can do advanced UIs and animations that would otherwise be very annoying in other frameworks like React Native. Plus, a canvas makes it easy to port to other platforms like desktop and web because all you need is the ability to draw pixels on a screen.
hah. I remember having to build HTML-only fallback versions of fancy Flash UI sites back in... 2002 to around 2008. We marketed this as an add-on for improved SEO. Allegedly Google used to manually check if the content matched what was in the Flash version and knock you down if it wasn't. That was probably just a rumor.
But it's more fun to rebuild the DOM inside a canvas. Then you can run it in another DOM inside a canvas inside a DOM, and stream the whole thing from a server into a thin client and call it a native app.

So what I didn't know was the origin of the word "master" in relation to housing.
"The phrase "master bedroom" first appeared in the 1926 Sears catalog, according to the real estate blog Trelora. It was a feature of a $4,398 Dutch colonial home, the most expensive in the catalog, referring to a large second floor bedroom with a private bathroom."
1926 was only 60 years after the civil war, an era where the evils of slavery will still felt by those, also a year that the KKK still had marches in DC.
"In the case of the Democratic Party, the key battleground was the 1924 Convention. The Klan endorsed William Gibbs McAdoo, the frontrunner for the nomination."
So the only question that remains was Sears and Roebuck racist? Some think they were, others point to the fact that they enabled blacks to still purchase from the Sears catalog.
Another option is that Sears was just marketing the house to the consumers that existed at the time. In 1926, what rich KKK sympathizer wouldn't like to sleep in the "Master Bedroom" gloriousness of the 1860's?
That's all very interesting but I don't think it has anything to do with if the phrase "master" is racist.
A quick search reveals the following English idioms:
master master plan master of ceremonies

A quick google search on the origin of the word master comes up with this (and in fact, I don't know why you didn't search this originally).
"Master comes from the Latin adverb magis (“more”). It first appeared in English over a thousand years ago, referring to people who had authority over others, whether as rulers, employers, teachers, or fathers."
I would imagine slaves and slave owners would be in that list as well.
I'm not saying that "master" is always racist, but in certain cases, it seems pretty clear -- as in the Master/Slave J/K flip flop. The example given "master bathroom" surely seems like it could have racist connotations.
I will admit that I had no idea that "slave" was actually a tech term until I heard about the blacklist controversy. I will admit the term "slave file" is rather...uncomfy.
