Anya Forger (left) realistified (right) using Stable Diffusion (thanks @EMostaque and @endomyxa).
I've kept the european nationality, since the anime takes place in fictional parts of Europe.
🚨 LIFE UPDATE: I’m joining a lab! 🤗
oh, did I say joining? I meant starting.
and did I say lab? well… that would be a biiit of an understatement 😉
INTRODUCING: @LYSIOS ⛓️💥
nine heads. zero fucks. unreasonable ambition.
a Superorg for the Age of Superintelligence.
@akbirthko If everything’s downstream of era of experience
Easy to think capability jumps when continuous learning hasn’t reached till point of personal models
Also it’s hard to make estimates
If the sunk costs is chained and you have to review heuristic and your environment
And take cost hits to not arrive at sunk costs situations
It does get tricky and muddy, and emotions take a role too
Sometimes depressed people have very odd ideas about sunk costs, it’s sad :-(
@shipundefined It's almost impossible to prompt engineer this out of current frontier models. We are building a fine tuned model called "English teacher" to hopefully solve this
I’ve explicitly kept examples where main point isn’t edge cases and I get why vector images should be a thing. Maybe I’d say diffusion should be a rendering layer and not primary generator
I just think image models by themselves have a place and shouldn’t be selected out
I’m on rest of the framing, putting images into vector is practical and impactful. Its simplest way to do things
@Rafa_Schwinger Skins, cells, membranes is just nightmare to do with vector graphics …why would u wanna do a fake approximation
Ok it has its place but shouldn’t better initialisation learn it anyways? If there’s overhang I get place for vector image gen
@Rafa_Schwinger That’s fair to say but then I mean for images why not have better priors like helping image model to see symmetries combination of symmetries at nth level
I’m sure they’d vastly cut down on computation
Long ago @TheBlapse introduced me to Neel’s work which introduced me to mech interp
Out of all interesting experiments I did, some of them made in interesting convos!
It's my 28th birthday today, and I'd like to ask for a favour: I do a lot of public facing work, and it's often hard to tell how much it does. If anything I've written or done has made a difference to your life, it'd really make my day to hear about it!
