Building rPPG UI from scratch takes too long. We just standardized our components across web and iOS. Drop in 3 pre-built VitalLens widgets (Scan, Monitor, File) to handle the entire user experience. Code and demos here: rouast.com/blog/articles/sta… #rPPG #iOSDev #WebDev #VitalLens

My free iOS app, VitalLens, measures your heart rate & breathing rate just by using the camera. I just shipped a major update with the new VitalLens 2.0 model, trained on >1300 people for a huge accuracy boost. apps.apple.com/app/vitallens… #HealthTech #AI #iOSdev #rPPG #VitalLens

GPT-4 shipped today! It sets a new high water mark on capabilities and alignment, but don't forget that it's also a powerful multimodal model that's SoTA on a number of VQA tasks, even compared to fine-tuned baselines. It can explain memes!

I have helped run an AI-based entrepreneurship program for years, written papers on the econ of AI, and follow the field quite closely. Nonetheless, I am *shocked* by how good OpenAI's new chat (chat.openai.com/chat) is. E.g., you can no longer give take-home exams/homework.

And we finalized! Happy merge all. This is a big moment for the Ethereum ecosystem. Everyone who helped make the merge happen should feel very proud today.

"Voyage through Time" is my first artpiece using #stablediffusion and I am blown away with the possibilities... We're crossing a threshold where generative AI is no longer just about novel aesthetics, but evolving into an amazing tool to build powerful, human-centered narratives

Thank you for the offer, but such excellent training would give me too much of an advantage. If he is afraid to fight, I will agree to use only my left hand and I am not even left-handed. Elona

Bought an item from @amazon which has not shipped and seems in limbo. Item has since increased in price. @AmazonHelp customer service refuses to (1) ship a replacement item, or (2) refund me the current price so I can re-order without losing money. Very poor form.
