If I remember correctly, the original was like this too. I always used the sloop and would often beat much larger ships.

Yeah, it's been awesome! I'm so excited about tool calls and function use, the possibilities are huge. I ran it over 1494 videos that range in length from a few seconds to over 3 h…

Hey, just want to thank you for this suggestion. Spent this morning swapping to open router and changing all my prompts to use tools instead of XML. Not only is Gemma and Gemini mu…

I originally limited mine to 10 frames spread evenly throughout the video, but it missed a fair bit of context at the analysis step, and didn't scale with length. So now when a vid…

Can't you do both? Use AI and still learn and strive to be better.

Reading your comment made me think of the Roman generals returning to a triumph and someone constantly following them saying "memento mori", reminding them they are not a god. Now,…

An AMS is useful just so you can have 4 different filaments ready to go at any time. Doesn't need to be for multi material models. I have an A1 with the AMS lite and a Prusa mk3s, …

Yeah, the app lets you configure which whisper model to use and then downloads it on first load. Whisper blows me away too. Ive only got a 2080 and use the medium model and it's su…

Maybe developers are using it in a less visible way? In the past 6 months I've used AI for a lot of different things. Some highlights: - Built a windows desktop app that scans loca…

Same. I use /ask in Aider so I can read what it's planning, ask follow-up questions, get it to change things, then after a few iterations I can type "Make it so" while sitting back…

Yeah, it's probably too expensive and complicated to send all the frames to an LLM. I only send about 30 images at 576x324 which is around 15000 tokens a video, and comes to about …
