AI mind-reading breakthrough! 80% accuracy in reconstructing images from brain activity.
fMRI + MEG + Stable Diffusion = glimpse into the mind's eye 👁️
Huge potential for BCIs and neuroscience!
Never look down at AI artists. Most are professionals in other fields.
Never look down on anyone unless you're looking down to extend a helping hand, or word.
it's crazy how many people still think midjourney is some single shot text prompt image generator
remixing
repainting
parameters
style blending
consistent characters
and about a dozen other features
straight text-to-image prompting is the most basic starting point
there are so many other tools that give you incredible control over subject/style/and scene direction
We’re excited to announce full support for USDC on @solana across the Audius product, live today! You can manage a balance, send, receive, and importantly, purchase things from artists, all with the same USDC tokens from @circle you use already.
What does this mean for you? 👇
I just finished recording my most exhaustive breakdown video I've ever made, comparing 8 different image generation options across 10 different criteria. It's a bit longer than normal but should be the most comprehensive comparison online.
We should have it online tomorrow.
3D scanning and rendering is moving so fast - got my splats up and running and I'm mind blown getting ~100fps for this complex 3D scene ⬇️ 🤯
1. WAY faster than NeRF: For comparison, NeRFs would takes around 10 seconds per frame (!) Instead I'm zipping around with FPV controls without breaking a sweat - though I do crash a few times towards the end of the video lol
2. Old Meets New: Gaussian Splatting is cool in that it fuses classical graphics and deep learning techniques. Like NeRFs, this is still a radiance field - just without the slower (ne)ural rendering part.
3. Explicit Representation: Instead you represent a 3D scene as a collection of ellipsoidal "splats" called gaussians. Each gaussian has a position, size, and color. Rendering in real-time is done by projecting into the image plane and alpha blending.
4. Photorealistic Effects: Gaussian splatting use spherical harmonics to represent the view-dependent effects and lighting - allowing surfaces to change color when viewed from different angles, enabling greater photorealism. It doesn't use a neural network, but the training loop is similar to deep learning.
5. Enables Direct Editing: But it's not just speed - with Gaussian Splatting you also get 3D editing support! So you can select, move, and delete stuff, even relight stuff. This type of editing has been more tedious to do with NeRFs and their implicit black box representations.
📲 More tests cooking! Much more to unpack here including simpler explanations. If you enjoyed this post, you might enjoy my feed: @bilawalsidhu
Damn! It's been quite a day in the AI world today...
Today alone:
- Tech Leaders in AI meet with US Senate for private AI Forum
- Stability AI releases "StableAudio" (And it's actually really good)
- Hugging Face releases a new AI Image model called "Würstchen" (which means little sausage?)
- Adobe Premiere released AI Audio Cleanup (in Beta)
- Adobe After Effects Added AI Rotoscoping (in Beta)
- Adobe Firefly comes out of Beta and is widely available in Adobe suite of tools
This Friday's AI news video could be a hefty one. LOL
I watched the entire 90-minute Google Cloud Next event this morning. What Duet will be able to do is pretty impressive!
To save you some time, I made this 18-minute SuperCut. If you watch at 2x, you can get all the details of the event in 9-minutes. :)
Enjoy.
Was feeling inspired by all the #Bitcoin#Barbie posts on CT.

@eliminatemusic He's talking about quantum physics lol. Nate you're a genius and total newb simultaneously but reality only becomes solidified when you choose a direction. All consciousness exists in a superposition of all states at once until an observer collapses the wave.
