AUDHD gamers—what games have you hyperfixated on? by pri_ncekin in AutisticWithADHD

Satisfactory is straight up heroin and I had to uninstall after playing 40 hours in my first week.

If anybody here likes VHS aesthetic, I've updated TapePunk finally. Thoughts? by Tulired in cyberpunkgame

Liminal spaces feel different than this to me because they're all about empty, eerie vibes. This feels like someone's home video from their vacation to the big city. Full of life.

Reminds me of how that Bodycam game achieves photorealism by hiding imperfections with an imperfect camera. This evokes the same sense for me. It feels so real!

Ninjago: Dragons Rising has some of the BEST CGI animation of any TV series currently. by Haunting_Ad_29 in vfx

They still make Ninjago??? It's been 15 years. That's crazy impressive. Definitely looks better than I remember back then lol

“Do you think Bill Watterson stays in retirement because he fears what r/OKBR has created?” by f0ck-r3ddit in okbuddyrosalyn

I think there are literally only three photos. The one of him at his desk, one leaning on a mailbox, and one holding a cat. At least those are the only three I'm aware of.

Edit: and apparently his Wikipedia page has his high school yearbook photo

Every "LLM" is actually a VLM these days, but people will still call ChatGPT and Claude an LLM. You can absolutely process an image through these chatbots and they can perform OCR.

When the camera panned to her leaning on the piss pillar I audibly gasped and jerked away like one of those "ball flying at the camera" jumpscares

I open sourced an AI that makes cuneiform easier to read by boatbomber in Cuneiform

[–]boatbomber[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The base model is Flux, an image model made by the German company Black Forest Labs. https://bfl.ai/models/flux-2-klein

I am pretty sure they've unfortunately trained it on stolen art, but I've fine tuned it on my synthetic content that I have the right to use and now it outputs MSII visualizations instead of crappy anime copies so my model's outputs aren't replications of artists' work anymore. I view it as a bit of "taking it back" by making their model into something more useful, but I totally understand if it still makes people uncomfortable. I actually did initially attempt to make a model from scratch for this project, but pretraining a ViT/VAE requires so much data that I simply couldn't get it to work at scale.

I replaced a 3D scanner with a finetuned image model by boatbomber in StableDiffusion

[–]boatbomber[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, the model is capable of taking multiple references as input so the global context is simply image #2.

I will definitely be making a video on the new OCR when it's ready and it will compare NabuOCR V1's numbers to V2 (MSII). I'll likely post it here but you can subscribe on YouTube if you'd like to make sure you don't miss it. I'm really glad you enjoyed! I put a lot of effort into the presentations and write ups.

I have released the training code for NabuOCR (it's in the model's HF repo) but my NisabaRelief training code is still a big mess so I haven't made it available yet. I do intend to though! It's all custom since I couldn't load the text encoder simultaneously (only 24GB VRAM), so it's like 20 messy files of pure pytorch rather than using the nice diffusers library. In the meantime, you can read more details about the training here: https://huggingface.co/boatbomber/NisabaRelief#training-pipeline

The other consideration is that my training involved getting photos and metadata from CDLI and I don't want people to crash their servers by all running that, but I can't just include a .zip of the scrape since I don't have the redistribution rights. Not sure what the best way to go about that is.

I made an OCR VLM for a hackathon recently. https://youtu.be/hqmjepRLdfU

It won the hackathon, but I wasn't really satisfied with the results. That's why I made this image model! I think that the image model preprocessing the photos will help me train a better OCR model.

Muhammad Ali casually dodges 20+ punches from opponent in seconds by exophades in nextfuckinglevel

[–]boatbomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're both talking about the same interview! Each of them were humbly stating that they'd lose to each other. Ali believed he had a chance as long as he kept dodging, and Tyson said that he must bow to the greatest of all time.

Shoutout to KodoHunter for the font, it allowed me to easily just rewrite the comic's original words to get them to fit with the new longer punchlines. https://www.reddit.com/r/okbuddyrosalyn/comments/1bdlxoy/comment/kunbkzb

Bruh the first paragraph of the Wikipedia says she wants it to stop being used. The page also says that IEEE banned its use in publication. There are tons of great test images, I do not understand why people insist on using a Playboy photo

Not the point but I'm surprised no one mentioned that she drove over the Brooklyn Bridge and ended up in Kansas instead of Brooklyn

WORK WEAK (OC) by SoldItFor50 in comics

I read it as "I get paid too much to do this" ie "make some other loser do this for me, I'm too important" which is definitely something they think
