Before stable diffusion, nobody released weights at all. Meta et al only started sharing their models with the world when they realized how fast a developer ecosystem was building around the best models. Without stability, all of AI would s

Rust made a critical safety mistake when it chose its async paradigm. It gave the code the option to decide when to yield. What that means is that when I'm writing async code, I have to audit every library I import to make sure that li

I didn't realize that the llama license forbids you from using its outputs to train other models. That's essentially a dealbreaker, synthetic data is going to be the most important type of training data from here on out. Any model

That's not necessarily reliable data, sometimes a company that is in a losing position will bring in a well paid CEO to reduce the damage. -5% can be an excellent result if you were expecting -20% as the status quo.

Its not quite the same, the highres fix in Auto1111 used the same model twice, the upscaling for SDXL uses two different models for each stage.

An LLM is a million times better than a YouTube video because it can stop and re-explain anything specific that is confusing you, or have discussions about tangential but off-curriculum topics, ask you questions based on its own appraisal o

If an LLM is being used to make decisions for the government, the people have a right to know what logic is driving the decisions. The government should demand open source code, open weights, and open research from any AI company it purchas

I disagree. When I was a kid I always bought Dell for my desktop computers because you could get the same specs for $300-$400 less than other providers (HP, Compaq, etc). My Mom would give me a $600 budget and I would do hours of research f

That's why Open Source LLMs are critical. Any commercial LLM you use is going to have advertisements baked in, preferences for particular products, perhaps political biases. Corporations will pay through the nose to have a trusted assi

I don't know what the breakdown is, but I know there was code for training the llama models on a DGX (640 GB of VRAM, repo is now gone), and it could only train the 7b model without using deepspeed 3 (offloading). The ML engineers in m

The general rule of thumb that I'm familiar with is that you need about 80 bytes of VRAM per parameter when you are doing training. Inference is different and a lot more efficient, and LoRA is also different and more efficient, but tra

Fun to think how the rules could change if you made the maze 3D. Now jumping is allowed. Flying as well? Touching walls? Cameras can't necessarily see the whole maze anymore either.

I hate to burst the bubble but strategies to break Monero's anonymity have been known since 2019. It turns out that the general strategy of mixing a subset of outputs together is insufficient to provide robust privacy, even if the mix

For "full fine tuning", mathematically there's no difference. Fine tuning is just extending the training on new data. What you are suggesting is called "curriculum learning", and though it hasn't been applied t
