@ThePrimeagen Obviously a sprue left over from the casting process.

my son made me a cookie....

@SphereVegas The Event Horizon core.

Tell us in the comments ⬇️

@elonmusk This data seems susceptible to Tesla being the newest manufacturer, not having vehicles that have been on the market as long? Or being expensive enough to have more affluent, lower maintenance tolerant customers?

Tesla is the lowest cost car to maintain

@BeguiledGamer @CorridorDigital

I can’t believe this trailer is just that’s dumbass chase scene from Taken 3 lmao what a magnificently weird deep cut

@marketplunger1 Bobiverse Blindsight Blood Music House of Suns Player of Games Use of Weapons

After watching Dune Pt. 1 and 2 I am convinced I need to start reading Science Fiction. Sci-Fi Twitter, I need your help. What are some great Sci-Fi series for beginners like myself?

@Rainmaker1973 Our modern primitive attempts at machine learning randomly produce specific useful weights with seemingly arbitrary values all the time. Seems to me to already be evidence leaning towards the one in infinite iterations by random chance, and we’re only just getting started.

We live in a simulation, change my mind. twitter.com/i/status/17645…

Credit @u_m_a_m_i for some visual inspiration.

My final submission, thinking I'd call it Ascent to Madness. Goal was to force myself to learn a bunch within a time constraint #eternalascent

@adrianmacneil Perfect application for pass through enabled VR headsets. All software, no hardware, full spatial awareness without the need for cameras, additional sensors, calibration.

One of the biggest challenges in building robot AI systems is collecting data. Often this is done through "expert demonstrations" - humans teleoperating a robot, then using that data to create a robot policy like "clean the dishes". Teleop has received some negative attention lately (with some teleop demos being misrepresented as autonomy), but it's actually a critical step towards building intelligent machines. Researchers @chichengcc and @Zhenjia_Xu recently released UMI Gripper, an open source "Universal Manipulation Interface" hardware for collecting demonstration data that is over 3x faster than human teleoperation. In the video below, you can see data being collected by humans simply holding the gripper. This data was then used to train policies which could autonomously complete the same tasks. This is a very promising new approach, and will hopefully will result in a massive increase in data collection for training robots!

#blender #stablediffusion and then fed that through an AnimateDiff pipeline to see what would happen with a noisy texture instead of a solid color.

#blender added a texture to test an idea.

@Subnautica One of the strong atmospheric draws of the Subnautica series for me, is the sense of isolation and the Wilson like relationship with the various device/machine Ai and found logs.

3⃣ The game is not multiplayer-focused. Co-op will be an entirely optional way to play the game. You’ll be able to enjoy the game as a single-player.

So. You all have a few questions! 😅 We have some answers ➡️ unknownworlds.com/subnautica/an-…

@IDEASOFICE_FIRE Ender wins the first book, probably Paul in any subsequent book.

Paul Atreides VS Luke Skywalker Vs Andrew Wiggin(Ender's Game). They all attempt to outmaneuver each other in an intergalactic game of war. Who comes out victorious?

@peterrhague The Green Futures of Tycho was another childhood favorite.

@peterrhague The Tripods Trilogy by John Christopher. His other books are also excellent, were my introduction to sci-fi.

Is there a science fiction equivalent of Harry Potter? My ten year old is very keen on sci fi but a lot of the classics I’d recommend are a bit above his reading level.
