There are enormous blobs deep inside the Earth. We can just barely detect them (using seismic imaging), and we really don't know what they are. blogs.egu.eu/divisions/gd/20…

Today we’ve raised $52M Seed and we are announcing the public launch of S2.1 Pro. >It can clone a voice from 5 seconds of audio >2x faster than Cartesia & 1/6th the cost of Eleven Labs >most expressive model with word level control over emotion, intonation, pacing etc We support frontier AI companies including HeyGen, LiveKit, Retell, Sanas, and OpenArt all run our model in production. If you're a business and we can't cut your voice AI costs by 50%, we'll give you 1 year of Fish Audio for free. Book a demo: s.fish.audio/tmapke To celebrate our first birthday, we'll give you 1 month of S2.1 Pro for free. Like, retweet, and comment “Fish” to get it.

I appreciate what Ben Affleck said on Joe Rogan but, I'm betting on A.I. teapawt.net/TiffanyFong/status/201…

it's crazy that 1M context window and 200K context window are the same thing

This is one of the craziest ideas I've ever seen. He converted a drawing of a bird into a spectrogram (PNG -> Soundwave) then played it to a Starling who sung it back reproducing the PNG. Using the birds brain as a hard drive with 2mbps read write speed. youtube.com/watch?si=HMtVdHB…

"The Prompt Floor" is my favorite Veo 3 video yet. And it's wild that we already have AI mockumentaries... (from u/AmadeusMS)

AI is changing what it means to do science and what it means to be a scientist. Today, we are publishing a series that explores this shift. Here’s what’s in it 🧵 quantamagazine.org/ai-change…

a half-hour episode of me acting with @sesame. In this first-of-its-kind art (?), we arrest a this SOTA voice AI for drug trafficking. it is shocking how it reacts... listen! cc @brendaniribe

the it’s over / we’re back cycle will continue to be compressed until it’s infinitely small and we live in a perpetual superposition of it being over and us being back

There's a new kind of coding I call "vibe coding", where you fully give in to the vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget that the code even exists. It's possible because the LLMs (e.g. Cursor Composer w Sonnet) are getting too good. Also I just talk to Composer with SuperWhisper so I barely even touch the keyboard. I ask for the dumbest things like "decrease the padding on the sidebar by half" because I'm too lazy to find it. I "Accept All" always, I don't read the diffs anymore. When I get error messages I just copy paste them in with no comment, usually that fixes it. The code grows beyond my usual comprehension, I'd have to really read through it for a while. Sometimes the LLMs can't fix a bug so I just work around it or ask for random changes until it goes away. It's not too bad for throwaway weekend projects, but still quite amusing. I'm building a project or webapp, but it's not really coding - I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy paste stuff, and it mostly works.
