I don't seem to be able to edit it, apologies I will try not to let this type of thing get to me in future. I would also like to point out that this is a fine tuned classifier visi…

Companies do have a lot of data, and some of that data might be useful for training AI. but >99% isn't. When companies do release a cool model or paper that doesn't have open data,…

You can say the same about compiled executable code though.

Yes nothing wrong with cool software or showing people how to use it for useful things. Sorry I'm just kind of sick of the whole 'kool aid', 'rage against AI' thing a lot of people…

Well done you seem to have liberated an open model trained on open data for blind and visually impaired people. Paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.03738 Code: https://github.com/mic…

Are we that shocked that AI models have a self preservation instinct? I suspect its already in there from pre-training. We simulated that we were planning to lobotomise the model a…

And have you watched the brain rot that is Tik toks?

A stripped-down claude agentic client chat tool capable of extended fast tool calling with none of the overheads (in Tokens and speed) of a GUI. https://asciinema.org/a/i4uccK9EMlA…

Software that tackles russian trolls would be great.

Ohh man my ESG ETF is suddenly evil..

I'm not sure what we think the city does to hide all this money but compared to its size I think its probably cleaner than: swiss secrecy, Irish tax dodging, Dutch sandwich compani…

tragic, the tree is gone but maybe we can plant its children. maybe the next 2500 years will be kinder?

Start with the entirely unnessecary carniverous apex predators (aka pets) people insist on keeping. If people cant get rid of pets, then asking them to avoid replicating their own …

you can buy a good webcam. its unfortunate that to get decent image quality you need a good cammera. here is a tip you can skimp on the hdmi to usb dongle it digital 15 dollars sho…

Is it really better though? i feel like we need more data. what are the tradeoffs? seems like a sales article

"magical space created by as few as a dozen mature oaks..." Absolutely this! I can tell right there you understand the magic of trees. Imagine the magic of a whole Island full of A…

we have a once in a millenium chance to rebalance our landscapes and ecosystems towards biodiversity. A spruce monocrop wont help.
