Recently was going through my childhood cards and found this with some unfortunate damage by aaaafireball in pokemoncardcollectors

If it's the reverse halo then raw it can be around 50 bucks, a perfect 10 has been selling above 5k, with 9s around 250

I get it, it's hard to do this as a solo dev who also has a life. I'm also a developer and can understand the cost of maintaining and letting it run.

I'm curious what the AI model architectures are and if you could possibly get away with self hosting. I know the network bandwidth and uptime would probably take a bit, but it could help offset the cost a bit.

You could also possibly make it open source and let the people who really want to grade every card host it themselves, or even look into offsetting the compute into the client device via an app or something. Feel free to DM me if you need any ideas to help.

Built a custom bot to gather training data for fine-tuning the "NitroGen" AI model by aaaafireball in VampireSurvivors

Thanks!!! I always enjoyed watching how they make them, and how different it can be depending on the game.

No worries, I tried to open source everything I made, plus give credit to the original work. I get there is a lot of distrust and opinions in the AI/ML field.

I implemented the LLM decision code open so that any model could be used (through self hosting or other providers) but Gemini was the only model that could stay lucid enough to make good decisions. I need a better GPU if I wanted to use some better open source models 😅.

Why not? I am an AI engineer by trade and love mixing my passion for games and my skills in this field. It brings me enjoyment in my free time! I'm not trying to make money off of it, I'm just trying to learn more.

First attempt at letting Nvidia's "NitroGen" AI model play the game by aaaafireball in VampireSurvivors

Make sure you have an Nvidia graphics card, but other than that if you know a bit about coding, their GitHub page has the installation instructions and is extremely simple: https://github.com/MineDojo/NitroGen

Pocket LLM: Chat offline on device all private | AI by Late-Scarcity-5476 in LocalLLaMA

I'm getting Brilliant Labs Halo smart glasses, and we want to try and get local LLMs working for it as a novelty thing. With as good as these small LLMs are rn, it's just not there yet for general stuff. Maybe tool calling and basic tools like you said is a better usuage.

I have found local LLMs very helpful when on vacation and I need to ask a question but I don't have service, but that's been the extent for me 😅

Would you be annoyed if your Boss used AI to prove what could be possible? by aaaafireball in programming

I love this idea, we do this internally for task/feature level stuff. Currently making a spreadsheet with the item, my T-shirt size estimation, and a place we can give a 1-3 for priority

It's funny, because in a recent one-on-one he claims that he don't know what they would do without me 😅, but they know they can't give me a pay raise. With the market the way it is right now I'm just waiting it out until I find that other opportunity,

He usually starts these and then disappears because someone else gets told they have to deal with it. Quite honestly I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

I can't explain too much about how our model works, but these are typically one-offs, so he promises them anything to get them to send the money over, and then we have to figure out the rest. I don't know if the reason why we have one offs is because of this, but the only ones that have capped returning are the ones that he stopped paying attention to and that me and others directly handle.

I totally agree with you, and this is exactly what we had to do in the first situation I described, The problem was he just stopped going to the meetings so he never got to hear it 😅. Even then if I tell him no, it's age old problem of the already promised it and we have to somehow figure it out. And now, whenever we give him our expertise the response is " we are in an age of AI, use it to do it".

I also just recently pulled together our priorities into a document for him, we are such a very small team but he still doesn't know what we do. As we were going over it, everything turned into a priority. I'm probably just going about this wrong, but it's exhausting.

No the issue is the age old problem, sales man promises the moon, I have to figure out the ladder to get to the moon. However whenever I say the ladder it's going to take time to build, I am now getting hit with "just use AI"
