    The logic is still the same. If the VAE is trained so that it is biased toward human preference, then the probability of false positives in real world images would increase.

    Generally, the VAE is mapping from a small latent space to a large image space. This means that there must be a large number of images for which no reverse mapping exists. It shoul…

    Try Ollama or LM Studio. Mixtral and its finetunes work perfectly for me on my RTX3090 with offloading.

    From what I gather, this project started out as an implementation of a code-interpreter using a local LLM. Basically your instructions are used to write code by the LLM, which is t…

    Bell labs tried to build a FET before the bipolar transistor. It's not so clear which theory the Lilienfeld devices are based on.
