Know what else we just did today in #Moldova? Unilaterally recognized payment systems licenced in EU countries. No additional licencing to operate on MD market. Really counting on this massive unlock to bring more competition&better services. Huge potential for e-commerce.

AI voice cloning is getting shockingly good. This video by ElevenLabs uses Leonardo DiCaprio's famous climate change speech and turns it into other cloned actors' voices. You can even clone your own voice on their website.

ALL of the video and audio that a person will experience in 18 years of life span can be compressed into mere 3TB file with H265+ codec @ 640x480x10Hz. Training a model with multimodal data to encompass human experiences is within our reach.

This line from @pmarca is amazing and scary... "We are heading into a world where a flat screen TV that covers your entire wall costs $100, and a four year college degree costs $1 million, and nobody has anything even resembling a proposal on how to fix this."

I’m a mother of six, and a Mormon. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. I've been listening to men grandstand about women's reproductive rights, and I'm convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. Here's why…

Using tools like ControlNet, brands can transcend conventional boundaries of expression and explore new dimensions of creativity. Here’s a cool experiment I did featuring the iconic Nike logo. #ControlNet #Nike

If you're part of today's woke revolution, you need to study the part of revolutions where they spin out of control.

And then there's this... around two millenia later! 😂🤣
In 1849, during street excavations along Vicolo delle Palma (now Vicolo dell'Atleta) in Trastevere, Rome, extraordinary bronze sculptures were found. This horse - which once had a rider - is an original 5th-4th c. BC Greek work. Hidden in the back of the Capitoline Museums. 1/

A polyculture of wheat grown with walnut trees produces ~ 40% higher yields. 1 hectare of wheat/walnut mix yields the same as 1.4 hectares of each crop grown separately. This is an example of overyielding.

The neuroprotective effects of coffee observed in epidemiological research are still poorly understood. Coffee contains many bioactive compounds, making it difficult to determine how each may contribute to its protective effects on the brain. bit.ly/3izcb9z
