I said accuracy was sightly better . The improvement isn't that high though, not enough for me to update my images. Weirdness is still there (when you want photorealism), and i think the rate of gross mistakes (at least for stablediffu

I think text/code genAI still have space to grow, but it's the same space fixed image generation models had two years ago. The usage grew, the costs diminished, the accuracy slightly increased, but the weirdness will stay, and gro

Just go out and talk to random people. Or if you're very shy, participate in a club of something you're interested in. When I was younger I found myself in a 'squat' with people I didn't know at first (very rural, w

I know someone whose clan was involved (still were when I last talked to him, before the US left Afghanistan). Of course the CIA/MI6 used local support, but they did have an impact on when, who and how. And on the power structure from

The diaspora and the clans are cheering for sure, as well as a lot of people who lost their operations when the Taliban took Afghanistan back. But the clans are way, way weaker than they were when they did their coup against Mosaddegh, so i
