🚗💥Introducing Ctrl-Crash: controllable video generation for autonomous driving! SOTA models struggle to generate physically realistic car crashes. We propose an image2video diffusion model with bounding box and crash type control. Website: anthonygosselin.github.io/Ctrl-Crash-P... 🧵->

ILYA: "PRETRAINING IS DONE. WE ARE NOW IN THE POST TRAINING ERA."

I'm finally starting to train video-game generative models! 🎮 The data processing took a long time.

the problem is i want to play every video game and there are only finite hours in a lifetime

On the Xet team at @huggingface.bsky.social we're always looking for ways to move bytes to computer near you as fast as possible. To do this, we're redesigning the upload and download infrastructure on the Hub. This post describes how, check the thread for details 🧵 huggingface.co/blog/rearchi...

Any Canadian equivalent?

A bit more detail for others. Almost anyone can get an Explore allocation by submitting a simple form, which can get you about 5000 GPU hours. allocations.access-ci.org/project-types

The coocoos are growing. ETA: AI religion in 5 years.
