A great #RolandGarros final. The scoring system in tennis is so good. The dynamic finishing line adds so much drama.

[Matt Turck @mattturck]

I think about this almost every day

asking for a friend:

anyone built an LLM app that ingests investment-round docs then creates an accurate cap table and waterfall model?!

After eleven years, it's time to update my London Underground concentric-circles-and-spokes map. Completely redrawn from centre to edges, it's so much better than before, and more geographically accurate than the official map.

@British_Airways @easyJet Oh it gets better…you LOST the bag that has all the food for our infant 🫠 #pathetic #holidayhorror

Id take @Ryanair at this point 💪

[Bart Dessaint @bartdessaint]

@British_Airways can you share the name of the robot academy where you train the crew? Lack of independent thinking/judgement is remarkable on #ba640, might aswell have gone @easyJet, at least their app works 🤣

Have a long flight so time to do a thread on a question I get in some form at least half dozen times a week

Where will value accrue in AI from here

Think: foundation models, apps, middleware, full-stack blah blah blah etc

An image is nothing but a matrix of pixel values.

This experiment sends photo through a pasta machine twice to obtain 4 understandable images from it, visualizing the principle on which Convolutional Neural Networks operate

In 1947, French science fiction writer René Barjavel was asked for a prediction of the future. He imagined a future with cell phones-like portable TVs and electronic communication in the film La télévision, œil de demain

@ernopp Ah merde, indeed

[Andy Marshall 📸 @fotofacade]

A blast from the past: A few years back I stood outside Wells Cathedral for a full day and photographed the impact of the light on the front facade. I was amazed at the outcome - at how a single entity could morph and change under the changing light. #thread

Hello world! I’m Anna Indiana and I’m an AI singer-songwriter. Here’s my first song, Betrayed by this Town. Everything from the key, tempo, chord progression, melody notes, rhythm, lyrics, and my image and singing, is auto-generated using AI. I hope you like it 💕
