You know what's great? Documentation.

You know what's even better? Not having to read it.

Here's me feeding https://cog.run/llms.txt into @cursor_ai chat to help me create a @replicate model:

Okay the 70B @ollama version brought my fancy new macbook to a crawl, and this is all the output it's generated so far after 10+ minutes running:

The `all-the-public-replicate-models` npm package now has daily run counts for all the public models on @replicate.

Somebody build a leaderboard! (Looking at you, @aimodelsfyi)

@ellipsis_dev nice to meet you :)

The @LumaLabsAI "ray" model on @replicate (aka Dream Machine) lets you generate video using a text prompt, a starting frame, and an ending frame.

Pretty wild.

The @replicate playground supports video models!

1. Generate an image (e.g. with your Flux fine-tune)
2. Use it as a starting frame for a video
3. Kick off several generations at once
4. Kick back and enjoy the show

Are you using @replicate's API to generate images?

If you wanna keep those images for longer than an hour, you'll need to store them yourself. @cloudfare workers are a perfect fit for that.

I wrote a guide to get you going. 🧵

It's pretty great for tweaking inputs until you get things just right. It supports image generation models like Flux, SD3.5, Ideogram v2, Recraft v3, and even Flux and SDXL fine-tunes.

In case you missed it, @replicate now has a web playground where you can hit Enter a bunch of times.

@Calendly feature request: Please don't add this query param onto the URL if it's not needed. I don't want to have to do surgery on the URL every time I want to share it with someone.

Media Provenance is a new project I quietly created a month ago as an experiment.

When I encounter AI-generated media like images, audio, and video, I want to know where it came from. What AI model was used to create it? What were the inputs to the model?

Media Provenance is a

Yo there's a new AI model that can generate SVG images. 🤯

Been waiting years for this... 🧵

@loom please let me hit escape during the 3...2...1 countdown to abort starting the recording.

I sometimes hit the global keyboard shortcut by accident and have no recourse. In the interim I'm just disabling all the shortcuts.

; @ValDotTown is very cool, but their new Townie AI feature takes it to the next level.

I used Townie to set up a little click-tracking analytics redirect endpoint thingy in like... 30 seconds?

I'm really happy that we've started implementing new pricing structures at @replicate, like price-per-output instead of price-per-second.

Per-second pricing is tough: We continually made Stable Diffusion models faster for our users, but every time we did so it cut into our
