Semantically annotating 3D gaussian splats on the fly using gemini 3.1 + sparkjs
1. Load any 3D scene and hit scan
2. Get 2D detections from VLM
3. Cluster outputs & project into 3D world space
4. Save as a persistent 3D semantic layer
Inspired by @alexanderchen's experiments with gemini visual intelligence. Just had to try to lift it from 2D to 3D!
The Bitter Lesson of Robotics: It's extremely easy to make a video of a robot doing something once under perfect conditions then post it to X. But it often takes a decade to harden systems and design for all the insane edge cases of the real world. Many companies raising $$$$ on cool demos, but all the hard work comes after
When fine-tuning small LLMs, it's interesting to see which anchors are established.
For the most part, at 4-bit quantization, very little personality is preserved, but certain functions do seem to peek through.
This fine-tuning is made from my entire ChatGPT conversation dataset of around 9k conversations.
Art Deco is an incomplete movement, lacking a philosophical or artistic manifesto like those of Bauhaus or De Stijl. Emerging as a loose aesthetic of older craft traditions and new industrial modernism, plainly geometric forms, luxurious materials, and streamlined ornamentation
Sam Altman was asked how he felt about Zuck and Meta poaching OpenAI’s top talent.
“Fine... good...” he said.
Behind Jony Ive–designed glasses, I couldn’t see his eyes. But I could feel the pain.
It's not hard for Zuck to poach OpenAI talent, not just because he has the money, but because open-source AI is fulfilling the original OpenAI mission.
@local0ptimist@somewheresy I have been attempting to DM on these opportunities, but I'm not sure if they are getting to them... Would love to chat @somewheresy : ]
I've made a new version of my video-generating program:
1. scrapes the internet for articles
2. Generates a script
3. Generates a series of images using Nano-banana
4. Generates the voice using Eleven Labs
5. Combines the elements and exports mov
Perform a ritual 10 times, and the counter stops being a counter; it becomes a number, and that’s when the entity notices.
A reversed arithmage is working.
Just remember: it only takes on a leyline; elsewhere, the earth swallows the charge.
