Want to get in front of 100k AI enthusiasts? Work with us here

Hello folks, tomorrow’s workshop is all about creating a tool we all need - A sales bot with Slack and Google Sheets. Pro members can join live or catch up on the recording later.

Here’s what we have today;

PICKS

1. During the weekend, image models made a comeback. Recently released Flux models can create realistic images with near-perfect text—straight from the model, without much patchwork. To get the party going, people are putting these images into video generation models to create pretty-trippy-videos. I can’t identify half of them as AI, and they’ll only get better. See this tutorial on how to create a video ad for your product.

2. The Strawberry hype on Twitter is still on, but here are two facts to keep in mind:

   1. OpenAI has better methods and models that haven’t been released yet.

   2. Speculating on their release time does no good.

   It’s okay to get excited for a bit but let’s try to bring the AI we already have into our work. (More tutorials are on the way!!)

3. Optimize Llama 3.1-8B to Outperform GPT-4o on OctoAI

   Check out this recorded tutorial and demo to learn how fine tuning smaller open source models and running them on OctoAI’s performant serverless endpoints can deliver huge quality, cost, and speed gains. Watch it here (sponsor)
