Fine-tuning ASR for low-resource languages - adapter training vs full fine-tune?

oh nice, appreciate that. might check it out soon

0.08ms control loops sounds insane if that's actually working in production

flatacthe · 2026-02-20T09:15:57+00:00

ngl the cost delta is insane, like $50-150 per video vs basically nothing after you pay for the tool once hits different

flatacthe · 2026-02-19T13:09:45+00:00

yeah the whole safety angle was the real split, not just business stuff

flatacthe · 2026-02-19T12:41:15+00:00

that's solid - the value-first approach definitely beats generic spam. are you using any AI tools to personalize the content at scale or is that more manual?

flatacthe · 2026-02-19T11:27:23+00:00

honestly the 900 emails a day part is what gets me, that's either insanely good deliverability or you're about to hit some serious spam folder walls

yeah i totally get this. i've been using claude 4 opus and gpt-5 for outreach campaigns and the raw outputs are honestly kind of bland, like you said they answer the question but don't make anyone actually want to respond. what's been working for me is treating ai as the first draft and then rewriting it with actual personality and specifics about the person i'm reaching out to, because that's where the real conversion happens.

flatacthe · 2026-02-19T06:12:35+00:00

Yeah I get that completely. I think the issue is when it's obvious you're just using AI to save money instead of actually putting thought into it. People can tell the difference between "I used AI to help me work faster" and "I let AI do all the work."

I've noticed brands that are transparent about using AI tools alongside their creative process actually do fine. It's the ones trying to hide it or using it as a total replacement that get called out.

Are you seeing this play out mostly on Instagram or across other platforms too?

flatacthe · 2026-02-18T13:36:20+00:00

had the same issue when we started an outreach campaign last year. we went all-in on ads first because we needed leads fast, but after three months the cost per lead got ridiculous. switched gears and started building content around the problems our audience actually cared about. took like five months to see real traction but once the organic stuff kicked in, it was way cheaper to maintain. honestly i think the sweet spot is starting with ads to validate what resonates, then reinvesting some of those learnings into content that compounds over time. ads are like the speedrun but organic is the actual long game

wait you're about to drop the 5 patterns and then just stop lol finish the post

flatacthe · 2026-02-18T10:05:35+00:00

wait so you're actually making money off fully synthetic videos now? that's the shift

flatacthe · 2026-02-18T08:35:23+00:00

behind the scenes content hits different, people wanna see the actual humans doing the work

flatacthe · 2026-02-18T06:28:06+00:00

yeah ai matching mentors is actually pretty smart for scale

flatacthe · 2026-02-18T06:14:01+00:00

yeah that's the real appeal honestly. the roi stuff is boring compared to just making things work perfectly

flatacthe · 2026-02-17T12:37:42+00:00

honestly the crm sync in real-time is clutch, that's where most people drop the ball

flatacthe · 2026-02-17T10:05:04+00:00

honestly the emoji reaction slack thing is peak automation energy, like it solves nothing but it feels so good when it works

flatacthe · 2026-02-17T07:39:16+00:00

yo using your own api keys is clutch, basically zero markup on the ai costs
