   I've been working on a vocal pitch-and-time editor called PitchDance, something like Melodyne. It works both as standalone software or a plug-in for your DAW. The idea is to make software like this more accessible by selling at a much

   Interesting. I wonder if current LLMs can break out of human limitations and understand the world more correctly.

    Yes, I also see that (also using dark mode on Chrome without Dark Reader extension). I sometimes use the Dark Reader Chrome extension, which usually breaks sites' colours, but this time it actually fixes the site.

    You would be surprised, however, at how much detail humans also need to understand each other. We often want AI to just "understand" us in ways many people may not initially have understood us without extra communication.

    Thank you so much! And thank you for your question. Yes, so to answer it, the idea of TinyTune was to literally be "tiny", i.e., very simple to use. It (mostly) takes 3 steps + some waiting time and you have a custom model. I foun

    Thanks for the question and feedback. We are hoping to get some early testers on board at first. But yes, those are some good points, and we will be sure to add more details and perhaps some sort of a demo soon!
