KittenTTS is under 25 megabytes at ~15M parameters. Quality is crazy good for this size. I'm super excited about the opportunities here.

Accelerating on-device ML on Metaโ€™s family of apps with ExecuTorch ExecuTorch is the PyTorch inference framework for edge devices developed by Meta with support from industry leaders like Arm, Apple, and Qualcomm.ย  Running machine learning (ML) models on-device isโ€ฆ

My latest fixation is ExecuTorch by the PyTorch Edge Team. Hope to see more of this as capable AI gets smaller and devices more powerful.

Run and manage Jobs Weโ€™re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.

`hf jobs` looks super interesting. Send off workloads easily to remote infra.

And with inline metadata uv scripts
`hf jobs uv run my_script.py` all dependencies can be defined in a single file. So simple and so useful.

First time using those "one click GPU machine deployment"-services. Went with @runpod.io and I'm pleasantly surprised! There were a few hiccups with the default image and updating ffmpeg but I feel like that's almost to be expected.

Having to provision compute clusters through Databricks for work made me install VS Code tunnels on it just to avoid their bloated notebooks implementation. Feels silly but also delighted that tunnels actually works well.

European project Eurosky aims to reduce reliance on US tech giants A group of European technology entrepreneurs has unveiled the Eurosky initiative, a government-backed project to create infrastructure for social media offerings and reduce reliance on U.S. tech giants.

Reuters reports on our Eurosky initiative whose goal it is to establish a full, legally compliant #ATProto stack in Europe. But not only that - weโ€™re working on a commons moderation service that can act as an incubator for smaller ATProto devs.

Do One Thing Well

"Today's AI industry is pouring billions into agent frameworks, orchestration platforms, and error recovery systems. Yet the most sophisticated AI applications still fail in production for a surprisingly mundane reason: we can't guarantee what comes out of our language models."

This is a question that deserves a blog post answer, but I'm going to do a quick response here.

Gather around children as I tell you a story from ancient times. The year was 2015... at that point, it appeared that you needed Google scale to build competitive computer vision systems. 1/x

Configuration files | uv uv is an extremely fast Python package and project manager, written in Rust.

I feel like this shouldn't be as groundbreaking as it appears to me but being able to simply write

uv run --env-file .env <script.py>

to manage which env-file is being used for a particular script execution is so nice

OLMoE, meet iOS | Ai2 Our mixture-of-experts model is available on the Apple app store! The OLMoE app allows anyone to test the model privately and securely.

I recall that the OLMoE app as being pretty plug-and-play to get up and running on iOS. The Edge Gallery for Android is also easy to use but perhaps not as easy to install as it's not on the Play Store.

Agentic AI systems are driving a wave of applications where language models carry out a limited set of specialized tasks repeatedly, with minimal variation.
