Bipedal robots will be a common thing in industrial/commercial settings within the decade. There is just such a huge financial incentive to create bipedal robots to take over human tasks. $100k for a robot that can work in a warehouse

Apple's moat has been and continues to be their insanely large installed base of high-margin hardware devices. Meanwhile, LLMs are rapidly becoming so commoditized that consumers are already expecting them to be built-in to every produ

There's a lot of truth to this, but I have seen clients get really interested in local models—mostly due to cost and/or confidentiality. For example, some healthcare clients will never upload medical records to OpenAI, regardless

I agree, I think they need an example or two on that blog post to back up the claim. I'm ready to believe it, but I need something more than "diverse customer tasks" to understand what we're talking about.

There are multiple factors that could sour this deal from a financial standpoint. ARR multiples have been falling, interest rates have risen, and Adobe's performance has been quite strong without Figma. Meanwhile, from what I've o

Microsoft also has an AI feature called Copilot. I think at this point the name has become a generic term for AI assistance.

From what I’ve seen in the corporate world, it’s the overwhelming default. The business simply will not pay for separate native iOS & Android apps, even if you present convincing evidence that it’s better, faster and cheaper. It’s not t

Ah yes, their kids will also never eat refined sugar, and will only ever play with wooden toys. Every generation thinks they’ll be the first ones to parent well, and when they inevitably compromise, every generation gets to eat crow.

$350 is pretty reasonable for a specialist on something like GPU optimization… For an application like machine learning, just 5–10 hours could save you a gigantic amount of money. With that said, I would never hire this person in 1000 years

This might actually get me to check out Ansel as a current Lightroom Classic user. I tried Darktable a year or two ago, and there were some immediate dealbreakers. I really like the idea of someone capable and opinionated forking a popular

The issue with that is that it would reduce the space between pairs that need it (such as mb). Taken to an extreme, mm would run together into one letter.

The "Texture Healing" feature is a really smart use of OpenType features to make problematic monospace combinations look much better without breaking the grid at all. One naive way to do this would be to create ligature pairs for

Fantastic to see that this edition shifts away from an RGB model to spectral rendering. I hope every renderer follows suit!

One of the big advantages to the Blackmagic Camera app is that you can shoot Apple Log into an H.265 container rather than ProRes, saving huge amounts of storage space. It also has far better features for exposure, focus peaking, etc. It&#x

Interesting detail about the TTS model generating a cough. Does anyone know what model/approach they’re using? I wonder if it’s transformer based like Bark.
