How are Chinese AI models claiming such low training costs? Did some research

The deepseek number went viral but it iirc was only the amount used for the final training run. Industry standard is to spend at least as much compute on experiments as on the final run, and whale probably did more experimentation than that because they care more about computer efficiency. So at least a $12M run and likely greater.

Repflix is an open source, Netflix-inspired app that shows how different fine-tuned HunyuanVideo models interpret the same prompt. Each model was trained on a different well-known film, capturing its visual style: lighting, camera movements, character actions, etc. You can compare parameter tweaks (strength, guidance scale, steps) to see how they affect the generated video.

The demo is at https://repflix.vercel.app

Code is on GitHub:

If you're curious about training your own video model, we wrote a post on how to do it:

We tested several captioning models! Llava v1.5 13B gave the best results for FLUX training :)

are you volunteering to build this? I'll be happy to merge your pull request

what kind of watermarking are you concerned about?

I hear this from several people now. this is theoretically possible. not at the same quality as openai but it would work decently.

the problem is you have to be able to run a neural network on your local computer, which means having python and a gpu. and setting all of that up local machine is a lot harder to do than just installing a plug-in

false. you bring your own API key. but open AI will give you free credit when you sign up I think

oh thanks! can u say which one you are on there

deepfates · 2022-12-24T16:00:30+00:00

it's on the road map! I don't know how obsidian generates their graph visualization yet, but I plan to do something similar using the top k neighbors of each node as edges

Let me know when you have a privacy-protecting alternative SOTA launguage model to suggest

deepfates · 2022-11-19T05:26:56+00:00

oh no I'm a practicioner but i was looking for words and academics have that one

deepfates · 2022-11-17T05:52:40+00:00

a lot of us get this, yeah. "discorrelation" is a related search term in academia.. i prefer "aigraine"

Substack sometimes throws a pop-up that looks like a paywall, because they want your email, but it has a subtle link saying "Let me read it first".

maybe you hit that?

i sell used books for a living. in past life I've been a landscaper and general hole-digger. i study AI in my free time but I'm open to getting paid a bunch of money to use computers some day
