It's a cool solution, and I like that it's CSS only. But the generated placeholders are way too blurry/lossy for my personal preferences.

It's a valid criticism that this method would increase compute requirements, but sometimes an improvement in the end result justifies the compute needed. For things like code generation in large datasets, many people would be willing t

Super cool, and I'd love to play around with this if they release an open source version. Without a full paper, it's a bit hard to understand the full details. Does this essentially replace nucleus sampling with diffusion, or does

That makes sense. Thanks for explaining!

They're on there, but using the model name rather than the service name. For instance, "Mistral-Large-2407" has an elo of 1252 at the time of writing.

AFAIK they drive on highways for testing, but they don't offer commercial rides on highway routes to customers yet. If that's still the case, I'd expect the majority of their miles to be on city streets. As I already pointed
