"Bachelor's degrees have become essential for well-paid jobs in the US." The lies we continue to allow ourselves to tell as a society.

The real moment of truth will be if any models start to assist massively in research in the hard sciences. Based on the quality of outputs I get when asking for help with somewhat complex AI research problems, I think it'll likely help

The main value of using SDF shapes for 3D modeling workflows is you don't have to worry about topology (the vertex, edge, face graph structure which has to be formed over the surface of all 3D models) which makes a lot of modifiers (li

The cost of materials and transportation and time using the expensive CNC machine will be the major costs of sculpture. Generating the same quality 3D models is at the very furthest 18 months away. And animating and rigging the models and g

With your expertise and the fact that they're so early, you should be able to build a competing business with your superior product right? Then you can keep all the rewards (and find out all they had to do to be in the position to be a

> Numeracy is just as valuable as literacy. I actually think this is likely not true. If you were to take an 18 year old who can't read, and another one who can't do addition, which do you think is less employable? There's

The tone of this betrays a possibly more argumentative than collaborative conversation style than that which I may want to engage with further (as seems common I've noticed amongst anti-connectionists), but I did find one point inters

If greater parameterization leads to memorization rather than generalisation it's likely a failure in our current architectures and loss formulations rather than an inherent benefit of "fewer parameters" improving generalizai

The team I work on is building tooling with exactly that in mind, making this a part of an artists workflow rather than any sort of replacement.

I know as much about how to get the best image outputs from text inputs as the person who designed an airport knows the best place to eat in it. The emergent properties of the system are a result of the data put into it, so I can only discu

Pixel values are discrete (length x width x r256 x g256 x b256) and vertex values are continuous, so that is one major difference. Secondly, there's vastly more labeled image data in the world than 3D data, so creating a CLMP (contrast

Like anyone deeply in a field I know maybe several thousand people who could probably give a better answer, but I figure I'll give an effort to provide one since I don't see any good ones posted yet. The moment everyone knew this

After an excellent all day workshop at CVPR this year explaining diffusion in more detail, it seemed pretty clear that any noise function could be used. I'm not sure if it should have been obvious, but I felt this paper coming from a m

I'd love a chance to talk to this guy (maybe at a rock-star after party at NeurIPS this year) because my view is: 1. "Either everything is magic or nothing is", and magical statistical tools are currently some of the coolest

My philosophy is if you think they're wrong and you don't need those people, then they have poor judgement, and you're better off not working with them in that case, and in fact could beat them by pursuing similar goals while

I am indeed bitter (def: anger and disappointment at being treated unfairly; resentment) about people using their credentials rather than real merits of their work to attempt to get a leg up when advertising their work. I covered my dissati

From my admittedly limited knowledge of how self driving policy models are implemented, I believe the main black box AI is determining the part `if personInFrontOfCar:` (using object detection, masking, 3D pose estimation, et/or cetera

I was watching this video recently from Weights and Biases on Linear Algebra intuition for ML. A mention was made in it that the real reason matrices rather than code or formal logic are used in ML is because of their ability to be changed

This makes me wonder what laws and tedium of administration merchants of the 1320's would complain about. I'm sure they still had a few depending on the region, and maybe more severe possible outcomes (highway robbery, unlawful ar

I thought this would be about best practices for deployment of models like this. I once asked in the LAION discord what that was and they said basically flask/fastapi server + load the model + gunicorn + ec2 instances. I'm curious

Well, we could at least start with having people not use profanity, or tell each other to kill themselves. I admit though I can't think of a good way to legislate the nuances of someone expressing an opinion that one ought not to be ab

I think the fact that Americans have trouble understanding how one could express the full range of political ideology while still remaining civil and not bullying each other is part of the problem. One can express any proposal for legislati
