Muse spark is really good, and in "contributor" mode it is by far the cheapest high-end model, open or closed.

mRNA cancer vaccines are one of the great medical advances of our lifetime - yet research is scattered and hard to follow. So I built a tracker to keep myself up to date. Nothing approved yet, but pipeline spans a wide range of cancers and early results are remarkable. github.com/philfung/awe...

Drawing on my background in running labs, the guide covers the entire process - from sequencing samples to synthesizing RNA, using open-source software and benchtop lab equipment. My goal is to spark interest to find cures. Note: This is for educational purposes only and is not for medical use.

I’ve started using NotebookLM to turn my favorite robotics papers into infographics. It’s an efficient way to digest info, much like scanning a conference poster. Here are a few of my favorites I've made:

HUGE: Google Colab can now run inside VS Code. Which means you can: - run ML/training jobs on (~free) Google Cloud TPU straight from VSCode - use your favorite AI coding tools (Cursor, Cline etc) with your Colab notebook. Just install new extension from Google - I tried it and it works.

Grout is a complete scam. If your shower didn't have tiny tiles, then there would be no shower cleaners, no sealants, no chalking, no mildew. Entire sections in Home Depot gone, all co's run by Big Grout.

High schoolers wear the same gigantic jeans that I wore in high school. Grateful but also a bit sad to have lived a full fashion cycle.

I've seen this on Bluesky and had to try it myself. The image below was the response to the prompt: "Show me a diagram of the US presidents since Herbert Hoover, with their names and years in office under their photos" Bravo, OpenAI, bravo.

Big congrats to @cline.bot on their $32M Series A raise! 2.7M devs strong and a great open-source product that doesn't degrade inference for their bottom line. www.forbes.com/sites/rashis...

I'm obsessed w/ robots that can do real-world tasks reliably (vs general intelligence), and created this repo to track papers that have progressed here. github.com/philfung/awe... Please feel free to PR with your research!

The new LeRobot arm calibration for SO-101 is so sick - just wiggle the joints. ∞ times better than SO-100. Props to team for innovative solution.

I checked in 'Eye of Sauron' into @LeRobot SO-101 repo. Very useful fixed/pre-calibrated camera view for sharing data between runs and other robot arms. Instructions: github.com/TheRobotStud... Thanks @cmcgartoll for original design and @pepijn2233 for considering/reviewing.

Fantastic new app - Listen to AI podcasts of your PDFs/papers/articles on the go. Also, written in Flutter!
