For some reason, I find it really grating how most deep learning stuff are pretty much impossible to do without paying quite a bit to a 3rd party service by the hour. Its one of the rare things in computing that you can't get started with unless you have some significant resources - most other things you can theoretically do with any old laptop and internet connection (ok - you may need to pay once you get users, but not just to get started)

This doesn't seem useful beyond serving as a tech demo and shill post for OP's employer's subscription service. A lot of the nuance in recipes is lost when you programmatically clobber them into a format uniform enough to train a model with, and it seems like in this case it can either regurgitate existing recipes, or invent dodgy unappetizing ones.

You can get a lot of success by buying used gpus of the right sort (usually pro gpus, not gaming cards).

#14It can't. Here is "green pasta" Only problem is that there is no pasta and I'm quite sure this is not very tasty :-D The green pasta by le chef Ingredients - 2 cups fresh spinach leaves, chopped - 1 tablespoon olive oil - 1/2 teaspoon salt - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper - 1 garlic clove, minced Directions Step 1 In a large bowl, combine the spinach, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat. Step 2 Divide the spina…
Not pasta but wilted spinach is an excellent side dish or addition to pasta.

At certain scales that’s true but there’s plenty you can experiment with with just Colaboratory or Kaggle… at least to get some intuition before jumping to spending money.

I think that model he trained can be trained on consumer RTX 3060, you just maybe would need to wait 4 times longer comparing to A100 he used.

I’ve found Google’s Colab to be a pretty great deal for getting started and playing around.

#20So how do those cookies taste? Did you make them?
They have around double the sugar I’d expect, and dropping the dough from a teaspoon seems like it might not work with a dough this consistency, but they might be good.
