Curious about Gaussian Splatting.

Most recently started work on splatinit.c It initializes 3D Gaussian Splats from an image and a depth map. It's fast and outputs to a typical 3D Gaussian Splat .ply file.

    Any word on if this using their diffusion architecture?

    This looks way better than mermaid. Is there support for this in GitHub PR code blocks like mermaid?

    It's super fast to iterate with? Curious what mistakes are you seeing and how were you using it? I use the instant edit feature with directions on exact code changes.

    Wishing they release the Gemini Diffusion model. It'll quickly replace the default model for Aider.

    Question for the researchers, can dLLMs be pinned down with a seed? Can they be made 100% deterministic?

    I think the lede is being buried. This is a great and fast InstructGPT. This is absolutely going to be used in spell checks, codemods, and code editors. Instant edits feature can s…

    I've been let off the waitlist. So far, I'm impressed with the Instant Edits. It's crazy fast. I can provide a big HTML file and prompt it to change a color theme and it makes care…

    Thank you for sharing this. I'm amazed! Are there any known emergent abilities of it? I ran my evals and seems to struggle in very similar ways to smaller transformer based LLMs

    It's a great language for Application-level software on a single platform (could be Linux). It has some challenges that it needs to solve to do great as a cross platform "general-p…

    > I would actually argue that axing Image Playground would improve Apple Intelligence; its mere existence greatly lowers the expectations for how good the whole thing is.

    I was expecting a discount. In the onboarding it says "Prices are the same. You won't pay more for autonomous rides." If that's the case, I would rather give my money to a human dr…

    Do you still also need to compile a mac build on a Mac?

    Is the date April 2 or February 4?

    We should NOT give up on scaling pretraining just yet! I believe that we should explore pretraining video completion models that explicitly have no text pairings. Why? We can train…

    Back in the old days, top level arrays were a security risk because the array constructor in JS could be redefined and do bad-guy stuff. I cannot think of any json parsing clients …

    It looks like there is no SfM used here atm. Removing SfM is something I worked on removing in my similar project https://github.com/afloresescarcega/splatinit

    I honestly haven't tried! I'm trying to do this per frame of a live video. I had not considered COLMAP for performance reasons.

    Kinda! My ultimate goal is to be able to join multiple 3D reconstructions from a set of iPhones all in different positions! Like hemisphere. The single-view image to 3D is pretty a…

    Thank you so much for open sourcing this! I've started a project to initialize each pixel in an image into a mesh of GS. I used a depth map to unproject them into space. I've been …

    Thank you Paul! I noticed the diff editing format mentioned. Does Opus perform better with whole formatting like GPT-4?

    So like Apple Vision Pro's EyeSight but for a Waymo?

    This is reported to be opening up globally? Wondering if I could then play PCVR with game streaming on the Apple Vision Pro
