WHAT IS THIS Y AXIS?? 52.8 IS HIGHER THAN 69.1, WHICH IS ALSO THE SAME AS 30.8 FOR SOME REASON.
THIS CHART IS A HATE CRIME!!!!

lets fucking go (I should update my LinkedIn). Been talking to some AMD AI top brass and one said he'd give me connections. Maybe I'll get a job at AMD

After switching the encoder to a pretrained Resnet18, freezing layers and training for 1 epoch, my model can (kind of) drive, having learned from 81k frames in 44 laps of me playing

I'm supposed to be writing a technical report, but I can't stop testing out my music LSTM (tech demo for my approach to language modeling audio). Only 18M parameters btw

Audio language modeling has always involved people training models to VQ audio directly. But what if we quantized mel spectrograms, then trained a vocoder like iSTFTNet, and later our AR prior on mel spectrogram indices?
We can language model 44.1KHz audio with a single 1k codebook.

A payroll company named Deel got sued for espionage. The lawyer claims that building "payroll engines" is an "extremely difficult task", and goes on about mainframes, manufacturing parts, then claims to process payroll on a global scale you need "significant advances in quantum computing"

Today I learned that some researchers evaluated how different LLMs could run a vending machine business. Claude 3.5 forgot to check its inventory, believing the goods were not delivered, and over 77 days began escalating threats, ultimately sending 1-second notices and nuclear threats
