Pretty cool. I once worked on AI Dungeon and we had a similar idea to parse the story so far into a graph, so that we could manage long-term memory outside of the context window (which was only 2048 tokens). Coreference is hard. ("he t

I think we are mostly on the same page. Pain and suffering are different things, and often fully embracing pain and letting go of aversion decreases the amount of suffering in that moment. So yes, it's very important that practice is m

Yes, I hope that most readers take away this sentiment as well. I will say that some of Sasha's criticisms don't vibe well with my understanding, though. For example, we don't renounce pleasure because Buddha tells us we shou

I've been curious about this in my own practice, but I haven't yet been able to find an example of increasing suffering as having a positive impact on my insight. Do you remember the book or teaching that that analogy came from? A

It makes me sad that many people will use this as an opportunity to write off Buddhist practices. Please don't! It has personally helped me greatly. Just remember: 1. The goal is to end suffering, so if a practice is making you suffer

I think you can get the effect you're looking for by using the previous cell as an init image and only repainting the character. As for consistency of character details, I think that will depend on how many images you use to train drea

I haven't used a feed reader in a long time, but I had a brief period when I was obsessed with Fraidycat. Worth a look if you're interested in a different approach to keeping up with people. https://fraidyc.at/

Suppose Twitter / FB were forced to comply with this law and remove censorship. Could they do that only for accounts that are verified as being legal US citizens and continue censoring unverified accounts? In that case I wouldn't

We do this with Pinecone, but we use CLIP embeddings of images, and they work incredibly well. It's kind of crazy how easy it is to get semantic search of images these days. CLIP also does caption embeddings, so you can lookup images v

Hey! Author here. I've noticed on certain mobile devices the contrast can be weird, not sure why. I updated the default theme's text color to be 10% darker, lmk if that looks better to you.

I also just tested "X is Really Y" and the same thing happened. We could probably enumerate the adverbs and get a good sense of what the list looks like, if you're not afraid of getting banned :3

Wow! Super cool results. This is just begging to be text-guided with the lyrics. Then you could put in the lyrics and have the model generate a clip it thinks would go with the lyrics. :)

Also very interested in this. AFAIK, the best alternative to DALLE-type generation is CLIP-Guided generation (such as Disco Diffusion [1] and MidJourney[2]) which can take anywhere from 1 - 20 minutes on an RTX A5000. [1]: https:/&#x2

If you want to try out some of these models, AI Art Studio[1] has Pixray, VQGAN, and Disco Diffusion available. [1] https://ai-art.latitude.io/
