Thank you for the kind words. I know that HN is a tough crowd to please (I myself as well), so I hope that my next update will be well worth working for.

I'm afraid it's a necessity after all the times that my work has been appropriated by companies and TikTokers/YouTubers. Yes, I am fully aware that most people will not read it. But at least I tried.

Unfortunately, this is mostly run on the GPU. Believe it or not, AWS was by far the cheapest.

To be honest, I thought more people on HN would appreciate the little in-jokes that I added to the website (such as the Interjection copypasta and the multiple Rickrolls hidden throughout), but it's nice to see that some people do stil

I have not been with MIT in years. I had a successful exit not too long after graduation, and I've been spending most of my earnings on this project. As an undergrad, I was completely broke. I figured that keeping the project free to u

It seems a bit overkill to do this instead of just waiting 10 seconds to click on the little green button, but I suppose this is a viable alternative.

You're completely correct, but I'm afraid this is more of a personal problem. I know I'll never be able to forgive myself if I figured out a solution to one of the more obvious problems with the model after I've already

This is my fault. I do see how that part is worded ambiguously (I'll fix it later), but I have not been with MIT in years. Copy pasting what I've written in another comment: To clarify: I have not been with MIT in years. I was pai

It was a suggestion from a Twitter user, and I found it clever.

I'm sorry to tell you that I do, in fact, own my own model. I have not been with MIT in years.

Yes, I do. For the past three years, I have done nothing but work on this project nonstop. I've been working on massive improvements (that some have pointed out in this thread) that I've been stuck on for the past several months,

I have no control over that. Exactly how do you expect me to enforce this?

Hello. I made this. I'm a bit shocked at how many people are getting things wrong and taking things out of context, so perhaps I could answer some questions. To clarify: I have not been with MIT in years. I was paid the minimum hourly

I'm afraid this tweet is taken out of context. I had written this in response to complaints about the release date being delayed because I wanted to make sure that the released model (that is currently on the site) was the best it coul
