I spent some time last week vibe-coding "The Beginner's... RL Playground" a simple web tool for exploring many basic concepts in reinforcement learning. Users can adjust all sorts of parameters of the algorithm and environment and see the effects of those changes in realtime.show more

I think it's interesting that we're starting to see... different types of specialists emerge in the field of Generative AI technology. We are seeing a new generation of world-class storytellers. Some are immaculate at vibe coding workflows and building infrastructures. Some are incredible at AI visual effects and AI cinematography. And some are just maestros at composition and world-building. And of course, many of us dip into all facets. We are witnessing the emergence of new creative and technical roles that didn't exist yesterday, and that's very exciting. And now we are starting to see the benefits of AI as an additive to existing workflows. I hope to work with many of you for the upcoming productions we have in the works at Promise.show more

spent the better part of the week building little... animated diagrams like this one i hope those will help illustrating some of the concepts behind the example scenes i'm preparing for the upcoming blog postshow more

Just spent the last 4 days on a sailboat... exploring the Flores and Komodo islands in Indonesia and I have to say, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in the world.show more

These are not CGI. Reinforcement learning is so back.... When operating on strings, it gives us o3. When operating on physical motors, it gives us a perfect humanoid backflip and a robot creature that out-maneuvers almost every animal on earth. RL is one of the only learning algorithms that can master both the world of bits and the world of atoms. Give me a reward function, and I shall move the world. 2025, Year of RL.show more

In our wizard game, you can use the basic... spell for all sorts of important wizard hijinks, including pushing students over (gently, of course), moving items around, opening containers, and much more!show more

Spent some time last week building up a new... detail screen in Believe. This is just the start of a journey introducing more community and creator focused changes we have coming. I wanted to make this fun, playful but equally useful. I am excited to deliver more polish and introduce community focused features to the rest of the app. Time to take things to the next level🫡show more

10 months in the gym and I can finally... see the start of some actual muscle underneath those tits. I am beyond excited!show more

How'd you like a business where you can spend... $1,600 once and make $1,600 in profit every month? Last week I spent the day at one of these businesses and learned all I could from the owner. Here's what's good:show more

I lived in PR for 6 months. I have... spent time in the mountains of Peru, the cloud forests of Costa Rica and the Amazon of Ecuador. I even lived in a treehouse village in The DR for a week. I have never seen a wetter summer than this one in DC! We aren’t supposed to get monsoons!show more

A simple rope and pulley system can help you... achieve all sorts of things in the garage. Lifting, moving, suspending… or even silly things like this!show more

Reinforcement Learning (RL) has long been the dominant method... for fine-tuning, powering many state-of-the-art LLMs. Methods like PPO and GRPO explore in action space. But can we instead explore directly in parameter space? YES we can. We propose a scalable framework for full-parameter fine-tuning using Evolution Strategies (ES). By skipping gradients and optimizing directly in parameter space, ES achieves more accurate, efficient, and stable fine-tuning. Paper: Code:show more

Posted a full preview of this in my discord,... here's a snippet! This is the culmination of all the stuff I've been learning the last few months. There's a Daz3d model in there being driven by motion capture data, with a physics driven hair rig and some basic jiggle on the boobs.show more

𝕏’s algorithm is changing in real time And many... new features & updates are rolling out soon The average time spent on 𝕏 is already up over 20%, and follows are rising too And this is just the beginning 𝕏 is becoming a daily habit for millions of people, it's the last place where free speech still existsshow more

Over the weekend, I started learning SwiftUI. After spending... some time to learn the basics, with the help of ChatGPT and of GLSL coding knowledge, I created my very first app. More info and source code shared below 🧶show more
