This one, for example, picks up to 200kHz for €1050:
I swear I treated those as some grammar token, which doesn't hold any real meaning. I've been using those as such for years before.
Above includes the explanation. Final result is here:
Heard a lot of "it captures mostly face muscle contractions" and "capturing a brain signal with it is like listening to a whisper being spoken in a grand canyon, while being miles away"
Feels like a huge burden lifted off my shoulders
What do you do, in order for chatgpt to be able to pick up your library and it's patterns? What obstacles I see in this scenario:
* Base models takes months and millions to train
* RLHF supposedly can add knowledge, but it's disputed to mostly "change style"
* What incentive will OpenAI have to include your particular library's documentation?
I imagine, if that library starts being really popular, a lot of other code will include examples how to you use it. What about before that?
Including new knowledge always lags (are there two gpt updates per year? maybe a up to 4, but not really significantly more) few months, so what about a fast moving agile greenfield project? It could cause frustration in LLM users (I know I have been bitten a lot by some python library changes already).
It seems that it's just another tool in the box for humans to use. In far far future maybe, when we somehow get around those millions of dollars for fine tuning (doubtful) and/or libraries simply stop changing.
But still, put any really not small code base into 120k token context and see how easy both gpt and cluade opus trip up on themselves. It's amazing, when it works, but currently it's a roll of a dice still
I also built multiple things with it and I always came to a point, where it just couldn't handle anything slightly larger than a mvp, or a non guided change requiring editing multiple files at once
It's great as a non offensive stack overflow replacement, but just look at aider benchmarks (amazing work by the way): most capable models really struggle to make basic changes to a real code base.
Does anybody actually using it in practice believes the hype? I thought the hype is just another theatre for investors
EDIT: just some points taken from: https://aider.chat/docs/leaderboards/#code-editing-leaderboa...
- The metric "Percent completed correctly" maxes out at 72.9% with gpt4o, while at the same time, giving out correctly formatted output only 96.2% of the time.
- Benchmark suite is based on https://github.com/exercism/python, which very likely is a part of the training material already! In real code bases, no LLM would have the advantage of seeing new or proprietary code
That makes me want to revisit my previous idea: boiling soup spillage detector. I once had a google meeting with a cooking soup to keep an eye on it and thought, heck, that seems like a nice exercise for a visual detector finetune
What are real life actual useful cases for this tech?
I can imagine in manufacturing: detecting defects or layout mismatch - that's one.
Is there any open source project that uses a image recognition library to achieve any useful task? All I've seen from board partners seem to at most provide very simple demos, where a box with label is drawn around an object. Who actually is using that information, how and for what?
I've also been a part of the Kinect craze and made 3 demos (games mostly) using their SDK and still have a very hard time defending this tech in eyes of coworkers that only see this as a surveillance tech
I think it's already flooded with spam from non real artists. I had weekly discovery playlists, where I did downvote all of proposed songs... Each new set was still coming with most boring, uninspired, flat and predictable structure (and abstract cover art), which for me is an exact equivalent of those NFT images.
The images are designed to be a set of replaceable elements that have to follow the same "joint structure". Once you see it, all charm is lost and that vague "why does it look so funny" feeling is simply replaced with disappointment.
Still, one of most important teaching moment to this day.
