If you're fine with a paid option (although it's source-available and distributed for "free" on their website), then Grayjay [0] is my personal favourite. I can't remember the last time I saw an error. On NewPipe, I can't say the same.
The Fast demo model is already very impressive. It was way better than expected, but still required being a bit verbose since it didn't seem to understand rarer words ("sauna" didn't get me anything pleasant, "hot sauna" did).
The generated palette seem to be a great indicator of whether the model understood the prompt or not.
I Haven't checked out the Python SDK yet, but it seems very interesting!
I'm curious to know if there is any reason for why you picked Gemma 1B for the Expressive model. Did it generate more cohesive parameters than other 1B models? Or was it just the first one you picked?
BTW - we used Gemma 270m model - not the 1B model. It's sheerly the size - I wanted to see if I could get a really, really tiny LLM to generate coherent music. Tbh, it didn't quite work as well as I expected. It barely beats a randomly generated track.
In fact, the 'fast' model (literally embedding lookup over a pre-generated library of music ... generated using Best-of-N on Gemini Flash) beats nearly everything - including Gemini Flash, Claude Opus, Gemma models.
I’m not saying this is a bubble; I don’t know whether than it is or not. But if it is a bubble, I’ve only seen one bubble this big in tech. When that bubble popped, the only companies that survived kept their costs in check. Some raised a round right before the bubble popped but cost control was always part or their survival.
I tried visiting that link on my device, and after many redirects and uBO warning screens, I ended up on an AI content farm in my native language, Swedish.
>You’ve likely heard that men are not wired for monogamy, that they prefer to chase or be dominant in relationships, […]. These claims have fueled darker trends among young men, as “looksmaxxing” and the belief that attractiveness unlocks success has spread on social media.
>But what if none of that accepted wisdom is true?
Is that really generally accepted "wisdom" though? I thought it was just a sliver of young men that had those ideas. I wouldn't consider that as an accepted fact (or "wisdom", as they call it).
It would be nice to have some context on this. I assume there was some drama regarding this "Cognitect" organisation named. As someone not involved with Clojure at, it's difficult to understand the context for why this post was created.
It was a reaction to the State of Clojure Survey 2018 (https://danielcompton.net/clojure-survey-2018) and discussions it sparked, in which there were depands for Clojure to change to a more community-driven development process.
There was also a thread about MinIO not being maintained anymore.
Hard to say without commentary. Maybe the poster here was influenced by multiple threads (I guess that seems likely, if it was just one thread they influenced them, they could have linked it in that thread).
But the link to the post was posted here just now! - which I'm assuming means something.
Both share a theme: the trials and tribulations of running an open source project, I suppose. Some contributions, one way or another, demand more of them than the maintainer might like. How do you deal with this? How do you set the boundaries? And so on.
I don't think I am immune to propaganda, and definitely not ads. I can't stand ads at all. They immediately grab my attention, even if I make a conscious attempt at ignoring them. It truly feels terrible.
Even for propaganda, I am constantly made aware of my propaganda immunity being subpar for all different kinds of propaganda. Often it's just subtle seeds of propaganda that impact the choice of words that I use to be something different than what I really believe in, and sometimes it is more serious and deeper cases of propagandisation. Very unfortunate, but each time it shows me why I should be critical of everything that I read online.
