AI & ML interests

I like using Stable Diffusion to take a hand drawn sketch and paint it using prompts or a style image. I started by using ControlNet Lineart and was so impressed with how specific the inclusion of each drawn element is. I also like to generate img to 3D experiments with sketches, 2D renders and various personal images.

Ever wanted 45 min with one of AI’s most fascinating minds? Was with @thomwolf at HumanX Vegas. Sharing my notes of his Q&A with the press—completely changed how I think about AI’s future: 1️⃣ The next wave of successful AI companies won’t be defined by who has the best model but by who builds the most useful real-world solutions. "We all have engines in our cars, but that’s rarely the only reason we buy one. We expect it to work well, and that’s enough. LLMs will be the same." 2️⃣ Big players are pivoting: "Closed-source companies—OpenAI being the first—have largely shifted from LLM announcements to product announcements." 3️⃣ Open source is changing everything: "DeepSeek was open source AI’s ChatGPT moment. Basically, everyone outside the bubble realized you can get a model for free—and it’s just as good as the paid ones." 4️⃣ Product innovation is being democratized: Take Manus, for example—they built a product on top of Anthropic’s models that’s "actually better than Anthropic’s own product for now, in terms of agents." This proves that anyone can build great products with existing models. We’re entering a "multi-LLM world," where models are becoming commoditized, and all the tools to build are readily available—just look at the flurry of daily new releases on HF中国镜像站. Thom's comparison to the internet era is spot-on: "In the beginning you made a lot of money by making websites... but nowadays the huge internet companies are not the companies that built websites. Like Airbnb, Uber, Facebook, they just use the internet as a medium to make something for real life use cases." Love to hear your thoughts on this shift!
