Can you train a state of the art text-to-speech (TTS) model with little resources? It seems you can! I've used Google's free TPU research credit to train a Dutch version of "Dia" called Parkiet, a natural conversation speech model and the quality is on-par with ElevenLabs.

Any idea how to get a hold of Google's free Research TPU credits? I get these assigned for 30 days but there is either no capacity or the accelerator is not available at all #ml

Finished the Duolingo-like daily exercises for news content. You can try it out at app.fluentsubs.com/exercises/da... for 11 languages (will add more soon). Tomorrow I'll finally do some proper marketing and fix the membership option (basically everything is free) #buildinpublic #langsky

In a major upgrade to Fluentsubs I've added "cloze" for subtitles. Based on the accuracy of the transcript and the word length, random gaps are created as a listening exercise to the user to bridge the gap between reading/listening skills in a language. #buildinpublic #langsky

Foundation models are overhyped. SAM2 was hard to fine-tune and we got some great results after tweaking the training process a lot. Decided to give YOLO11 another try (even after the crypto miner debacle) and it seems to be on par with SAM2 in terms of quality and much much faster!

Had some nice feedback from the first users and implemented the playlist feature, and added some basic channels so beginner language learners are not completely overwhelmed. The videos are pre-transcribed so that they can be watched immediately! #langsky #japanese #buildinpublic

Finished a complete overhaul of the spaced repetition implementation for my language learning app. Text input and hints are now available when rehearsing flashcards.

It took me 2 hours to implement a cool feature. It took me 6 hours to fix all responsiveness issues due to different behaviour for all combinations of iOS, Android, Safari and Chrome. Any tips? Or should I "just" create a native app. #buildinpublic #webdev

We've been using SAM2 in our #robotics #vision pipeline for a while to monitor wire alignment. Out-of-the-box it already performs really well on bespoke data, but fine-tuning the network gives exceptional results! This allows us to have MUCH better segmentations and LARGE speed improvements.
