1/ We are releasing Playground v2.5, our latest foundation model to create images.

We tested our model across 20K+ users in a rigorous benchmark that went beyond anything we've seen to date.

This model is open weights. More information in the tweets below. 👇

@spencerc99 Wow, I love this, so much passion 😍. "I want to feel like if I was the last human alive, I’d be doing the rest of the race some justice, honoring their memory." really resonates.

@BurnerMap I can't log in, there's a facebook issue

@YosemiteNPS https://t.co/0OJX1efNWs worked successfully, woo!

@stewartbrand I saw!! I love the perspective on maintenance -- making such a thing *inspiring* is a tough but valuable nut to crack. One of my favorite pieces I've read in awhile.

A guaranteed fun evening read. A story of 3 people sailing solo around-the-world in 1968. Start and end in Europe, without stopping anywhere else.

@stewartbrand did an excellent job 👏👏

@scowalt I only run it through GPT when the web contents change, which happens ~once a week

With the power of AI, I present: https://t.co/0OJX1efNWs

[Chase Lambert @chaselambda]

@scowalt Yeah, tons. fwiw that prompt is a bit over-engineered, I was struggling to get good results with GPT3.5 and now I'm using GPT4

[Chase Lambert @chaselambda]

Oo, excellent reporting. Highlights:
- a surprisingly high quantity of bad data science
- a16z claims that Youtube uses more energy than all global data centers

A deep dive on Andreessen Horowitz's latest "State of Crypto" report. In short: they want people to keep buying crypto, and are not above publishing blatant falsehoods to convince them to do so.

The report itself is 60 pages long, so this is a long one.

@vitusbenson @PatrickKidger So few views, but fascinating: https://t.co/sLXo3qDzcR.. and it's really cool to see their atypical perspective of not focusing on forests: https://t.co/NMvxayB8i1. They're spot on about the limitations.

[Chase Lambert @chaselambda]

@vitusbenson @PatrickKidger Woah this is incredible (too good to be true??). 150k+ stoves in India is just one of their projects. They estimate $23/ton CO2, which is the cheapest I've heard of for good quality offsets. Hmm..

@liron @MightyApp @typhoonjim If you mean the main bottleneck of browsers, no, not always. If you simply just have a faster CPU you'd be quite surprised how much faster many websites run. And how fast the browser runs in general (i.e. speed of closing a tab).

@kunaljaydesai yayyyy

[Chase Lambert @chaselambda]

Yikes, #1 google result for "how to tie your shoes" is a totally different way. It's both confusing and an even worse knot than the granny knot. *But* it is faster to tie.

[Chase Lambert @chaselambda]

A friend showed me this old TED talk from 2005 on how to tie your shoes. But it’s wrong. https://t.co/FWat3Pb6VW

Body posture does matter, but not in the way the video describes. Power poses don’t seem to have an effect on neutral poses, but contractive poses do have a negative effect.
