Nah I'm gonna generate the hecky out of "relevant for this one presentation" little cliparts to add to my powerpoints. But then I'm still going to take photos on film and enjoy Sunday afternoons in the darkroom doing pri

Lmao, and pre-AI the world wasn't trending towards cost-reduced mass-produced executive-driven content? And the average member of our species lapping it up like being a mindless consumer is going out of style?

Yes, look at how many historical inventors (like the Blue LED, the guys struggling to convince Gates and Balmer to make the Xbox) etc get/got nothing for their efforts compared to the huge sums raked in by the very people actively tryi

No, it won't be. I did indeed get the same problems when trying to generate my own image for it. However as someone who's mucked about with local image generation as well - I'd say that this is a problem with their implementa

Because if it's multimodal, oops all transformers and they're pretty much best in class for ocr now, afaik?

Dogs don't wear suits! You must be AI too ;)

I mean asking these transformers to do maths has always been the wrong task. It's like we're now considering "it doesn't have x tools built with traditional code built in". Though I suppose we're testing their

Omg imagine the response if it was the other... You know what, I really cannot be bothered anymore.

Because they've invested billions into making their own chips? And those chips have pretty damn good performance/power draw/cooling etc. I think the answer is pretty straightforward.

Manual focus I keep for film, I feel like it's a part of the process. But I do wish my Sony 50 was a little less noisy/slow. Suppose I should pick up the GM version at some point.

I feel like this is a political move between Hyundai and Google (favour by Google). BD sat back on traditional programming/light ML techniques for ages whilst transformers went wild and it's only now that they're like "o

Waveshare has some pretty rad ones. I've been tempted to use one of their rovers for something. Be careful, because you can easily overpay out the ass for "robot kits" online.

Honestly? Because capitalism.

I think the thing is: does it need to last 20-30 years between replacements if a robot can easily replace it + they're cheap enough to add redundant ones. Do we really need crazy accuracy even on an industrial level...like this pipe wi

I would look into VLAs/VLMs if you haven't already.

"The chip" no, a whole rack/deployment they offer takes 2.5kW. Not just one chip. Squeezing 2.5kW thru 1 chip would be mental.

My crotchety old neighbours just got one of those high pitched anti-fox speakers. Was mowing the lawns the other day and could still hear the high pitched tones it emits even with noise cancelling headphones on. Situation is pretty lame bec

Nice word jumble, you'd make an LLM proud. But it doesn't make what you've said profound.

I agree. In my experience on a macbook as well it can be terrifically hard to get some models to run properly on gpu w/ ollama, let alone containerised ollama.

Oh yeah for sure and if they had come back with "oh yeah we only had that" (they did) I would've been like "ah okay makes sense!" But for people to react negatively to my comment in the first place is hilarious and

Yes turns out humans are just dumb animals with a limited attention span and capacity for knowledge. We act like we're civilised, but look at the state of the world lmao. The "me and mine" attitude applies broadly across the

ESP8266 came out 2014, around the same time as the first Pi, besides the myriad of wifi enabled uc options before that. First Arduino (let's say for ease of use) with wifi built in was 2013. Lmao people already getting mad. It's h

No, what I'm really saying is that the baseline of plat growing is "it works by itself". Anything above letting nature take its course is a force multiplier. As opposed to other technologies; microchips do not grow on trees.

Meh. Plenty of landlords suck, if anything his only mistake was not making it available to others in the same building. The last apartment I rented (London) I never even met my shitty landlord hiding all the way up in Scotland. Randomly one
