I finally found how to have the nice #SwiftUI Text+timer style animation in an app (the default behaviour in a widget). I just missed to specify a transaction for the Text. It's working like a charm now!

.transaction { t in
        t.animation = .default
}

Improving Retrieval on Ramp with Transaction Embeddings

A nice @huggingface space to estimate VRAM for running an LLM

mf trained a simple model to translate ada-002 embeddings back to text and found something interesting:

sentence embeddings have arithmetic properties

the classic "king - man + woman = queen" still works just like w/ token embeddings — but can go a few steps beyond that as well

Hot tip - using gpt-4-mini as a reranker gives you better results, and now with strict mode it's just as reliable as any other reranker model.

I'm super impressed with Qwen-VL and CogVLM!

I've done a few (probably very naive) tests to compare LLaVA, BakLLaVA, Qwen-VL, CogVLM, and GPT-4V.

Tests include VQA, OCR, and zero-shot detection.

Any ideas on what else I should test?

One of the most useful tricks I learnt from @giffmana: automatically starting pdb debugger when program crashes.

It's just 5 lines of code that has probably saved me countless hours in trying to debug tricky bugs.

LLMs are slow. 
Caching can help, but developers should have control over how caches operate at different scales

i find it so insane alibaba can drop 3 new embedding models outscoring ada-002 on almost all benchmarks (with lower dims)

embeddings are great for similarity/search but also can improve how text is represented at train time

and you can run them on your own cheaper than ada2

This was much needed! Select a LLM, your vendor and your GPU and see if you can run it locally 🔥
