📢 Open-sourcing the Sarvam 30B and 105B models! Trained from scratch with all data, model research and inference optimisation done in-house, these models punch above their weight in most global benchmarks plus excel in Indian languages. Get the weights at Hugging Face and AIKosh. Thanks to the good folks at SGLang for day 0 support, vLLM support coming soon. Links, benchmark scores, examples, and more in our blog - sarvam.ai/blogs/sarvam-3…

Working on some new interaction for navigation/selection. #SwiftUI

I tried procedurally generated environment for 3D world at first, but it looked fake. Later I downloaded Cubemap texture and loaded it and that looked realistic. Cube texture with bubble shader is very performance heavy though.

Bubble shader. Translated from WebGl to Metal using Claude. #SwiftUI #Metal

claude so good though

Thanos disintegration effect. #SwiftUI

Some SpriteKit experiments. #SwiftUI

Share interaction using Swift + Shaders.

@NelsonNoa and @geniegetsme folks are doing some crazy things with Shaders! The experience feels fluid and magical!

@jopriyu Raosaheb and Antu Barva is still one of my favorite characters, they're so well written that you wonder if he met these people in real life or not.

One of the finest reviews of Dhurandhar points out how the film refuses to over-explain itself, how it trusts the audience enough to not spoon-feed meaning, to treat them not as passive consumers but as thinking beings. As a writer, this is something I instinctively gravitate towards as well. Not because it is a fashionable storytelling choice, but because it was ingrained in me early on by none other than Pu. La. Deshpande. His Vyakti Chitran never handed you the entire person on a platter. He allowed you to assemble parts of the backstory using your own intelligence. Haritatya, Chitle Master, Antu Barva......these were people you felt you knew intimately, and yet never completely. There was always something left unsaid, something deliberately withheld. Pu. La. was a master storyteller not merely because he could write beautifully, but because he knew when to stop. And that, perhaps, is the rarest and most important trait of a writer. Not the abundance of words, but the confidence in silence.

@raffichill this is me with experimenting with SwiftUI/Metal, image after image, token chugging continues...

@caspar_br For false dead ends, this is where I lacked understanding of the LLM written code or how SwiftUI APIs worked underneath lol

@caspar_br This all may sound a linear process, but I've hit many dead ends and pivoted to other approaches that worked. Or what I thought to be dead end just to revisit it weeks later for it to work.

Spent most of the long weekend recreating Safari’s Hide Distraction feature using metal shaders. This one took many attempts, Claude came to rescue though! 🙌 #SwiftUI #Shaders
