Thank you! His is generated from the same model, just a different style! ☺️
Forgot my @ 🤦🏻♀️

Bring on the book reviews! I am here for it 🎉

Completely valid concerns, and I think there needs to be more transparency here and we need some ethical guidelines for companies hosting these. I also think it’s healthy to have these concerns and a lot of people aren’t considering them today.
Hey! This one is actually AI generated after being trained on pictures of my face. This particular one comes from a project I’m about to start working on, but there are a few open source generative models you can play with. I think Dalle offers the ability to upload a photo of yourself to augment the results to get an avatar.
One thing to note when interacting with these apps and models: be sure to be aware of the privacy policies and the companies that are hosting the models, and be aware that any personal information you provide may not have any guarantees about how it is used.
We disagree. Only one of us is making global statements believing that our personal beliefs are facts that apply to all. And this conversation wasn’t about conception, but about raising a child, what a family is, and particularly about whether a gender predisposes someone to be a leader or… what was the word that was used, partake in “followership”. And I’m just saying, maybe your personal beliefs aren’t something that should be touted as absolutes. Because there are plenty of instances where they are successfully defied. I’m not telling you the way you create your family is wrong, I’m telling you the way that you tell everyone else how to create their own family in order to be successful, is. Now let’s see if you have the self respect to leave this in a place of “agree to disagree” or if you have to keep pushing your agenda and telling me I missed the point. I assure you, I did not.
I couldn’t agree more about how noticing nature can be a simple act with really substantial benefits! I always need a reminder to stop and look these days. I never regret it when I do. Instantly grounding.
Thank you! Yeah, they are. Almost all from college a bit over 10 years ago. I don’t pick up my camera too much any more, but have occasionally been shooting and developing film again lately just for the analog process.
Once upon a time, I was an art student - that feels like ages ago. Sometimes I wonder what I would make now, if I had the time and resources that I had then… now that I’m older and I have so much more that I’d like to say. 
Personally - I think kids just need family and love. No matter if that family is a single mom, a single dad, a mom and dad, two moms, two dads. The quality of the experience has less to do with gender, IMO. But you’re entitled to your own opinion and your own chance to create the family you want, and so am I - and ultimately, that’s what’s important.
We have different ideas about marriage, which is totally fine. The good news is that we all get to decide for ourselves what relationships to be in and which ones not to be. I think it’s just a bit interesting that you think you know what women, and “wives” in particular, generically “need”. Personally, marriage for me is not at all about need.
And it’s not that I have an issue looking up to someone who happens to be male. Except in the case when it comes at the expense of them looking up to me, equally, solely due to my gender.
You want your wife to be weak?
That’s the only alternative? I don’t need to be led. What I want is a partner.
🎉 I’m having a lot of fun with it myself. It’s so fun to work on things that you actually want to use yourself!!
Sure! You can sign up at https://nostr.wine which also includes links to resources that explain some of our other features (filter.nostr.wine and welcome.nostr.wine)
I’ve got a lot of irons in the fire right now 😬 been doing a lot of client work, but going to be between contracts for a few extra hours/week for the month of May and am excited about using that time to work on some nostr.wine features. My plan is to put in some data pipeline foundational work that will enable us to scale a bit more efficiently and will support some more sophisticated models… I’m really excited to start modeling for spam and other topic modeling or classification approaches for enabling users to filter by content (ideally inclusive and exclusive criteria). That process will be pretty freeform, and what we enable will be largely based on what signal we can find.
As for client projects - I’m building features and a risk assessment framework for a payments company, supporting ML and data engineering work for another company in the fintech space, about to start working with a company in the generative model space (super excited about this!), doing some architecture and roadmap consulting for a business trying to bring ML to an older industry/company, and doing some mentoring for a company who has a young ML team.
I’d love to hear what others are working on!
☺️ Thank you! It’s a nice outlet when things feel “stuck” and I have to sit with it
