waiting on that UBI (Universal Basic Income) since AI is literally going to take over in almost every industry. If intellectual capability was a problem on earth, well its definitely solved. So besides living multi planetary, what's the next step for humanity?
i see too many people on X being satisfied with trying to be exceptional, without actually being exceptional
too many people think their "hard" work will suffice. The world only rewards the talented and the genius.
even though quotes and life advice does not go viral anymore
but i've caught myself being satisfied with the feeling of trying to be exceptional, but without actually being exceptional.
Am i the only one experiencing this?
Diffusion video models but now - **realtime**!
Simple video filters are real-time but can only do basic re-coloring and styles. Video diffusion models (Veo and friends) are magic, but they take many seconds/minutes to generate. MirageLSD is real-time magic. Unlike simple video filters, diffusion models actually *understand* what they are looking at, so they can style all parts of the feed intelligently (e.g. putting hats on heads, or light sabers into hands, etc.). And they are arbitrarily steerable, e.g. by text prompts.
Customizable, intelligent video filters unlock many cool ideas over time:
- transform camera feeds into alternate realities
- direct and shoot your own movies, acting out scenes with props. Realtime => instant feedback/review.
- vibe code games around just simple spheres/blocks, then use a real-time diffusion model to texture your game to make it beautiful.
- style and customize any video feed: games, videos, ... e.g. Skyrim but "MORE EPIC"? DOOM II but modern Unreal Engine quality with just a prompt? Horror movie but "cute, pink and bunnies only"? I don't know!
- zoom call backgrounds+++
- real-time try on clothes virtually
- glasses: e.g. cartoonify your vision in real time?
- we can now build Harry Potter Mirror of Erised, showing the "raw feed" of you in the mirror but augmented with your deepest desires (as inferred by the AI).
- I don't know, I'm probably missing the biggest one, so many things!
(Disclosure I am (very small) angel investor in Decart, I was excited because imo this technology will get very good very fast and it feels general, powerful but it's also technically very difficult. Congrats on the launch to the team!)
my weekend project to learn about bluetooth mesh networks, relays and store and forward models, message encryption models, and a few other things.
bitchat: bluetooth mesh chat...IRC vibes.
