Think about the problem in an end-to-end fashion: the user has an idea of what sort of image they want, they just need an interface to tell the machine. A combination of natural language plus optional image/video input is probably the

Great work, congratulations! One question, if I understood it right you based your demo on GPT-2 - what is your experience working with those open-source language AIs. In terms of computational requirements and performance? I'm really

Absolutely. I briefly thought about asking ChatGPT to write a prompt, but then I remembered that the training corpus is probably older than those tools (I heard that if you ask it the right way, it will tell you that its corpus ended in 21

Dreambooth is what I'm using now, but I think I remember the concept had a specific name, something like 'context transfer' or so (pretty sure that was not the term) and tools that were pretty good at it that came out before

Many thanks to the OP, can't wait to try this out! I have a question I'm hoping to slide in here: I remember there were also solutions for doing things like "take this character and now make it do various things". Does a

Has it? I mean, maybe the idea of people doing this as a long-time career has, but practically, I still find it a challenge to get those AIs to do exactly what I want. I've played around with Dreambooth-style extensions now, and that g

LLMs and Image AIs are the opposite of self-driving cars. "Everybody" had concrete expectations for at least half a decade now that the moment where self-driving cars would surpass human ability was imminent, yet the tech hasn

My impression is that 10 years ago, Matlab had a few things going for it in terms of plotting, general usability,... that made it a valid competitor for eg R, even if you didn't depend on some of its more unique features like Simulink

The article feels more like a rant than a well-thought-out argument. It hardly says concretely what the problems with current PhD training are (it mentions a few problems in different places, but misses important ones like the ongoing menta

I suppose this is satire? I mean, how would I call such an API to make any changes to the application state? Create an image of the effect that I would like to see? Am I missing here, or is the joke just lost on me? If this is serious and t

Yeah, that would be really interesting, open source models with similar quality to GPT that even smaller players could use to train models tailored for their application. Kind of the language equivalent to what the OS community already achi

Ok, I'll take that. Still not sure about the argument under that definition, though. There are disciplines where 'talking nonsense with the intention to deceive' would objectively be a smart strategy, eg Poker. However, Poker
