Thanks for the feedback! I also asked a similar question on the ai stack exchange thread and got some helpful feedback there

It was a great project for brushing up on seq2seq modeling, but I decided to shelve it since someone released a polished website doing the same thing.

The idea was the vocabulary of music composition are chords and the sentences / paragraphs that are measures are sequences of chords or sequences of measures

I think it's a great project because the limited vocab size and max sequence length are much shorter than what is typical for transformers applied to LLM tasks like digesting novels for example. So for consumer grade harder (12GB VRam) it's feasible to train a couple different model architectures in tandem

Additionally, nothing sounds bad in music composition, it's up to the musician to find a creative way to make it sound good. So even if the model is poorly trained, so long as it doesn't output EOS immediately after BOS, and the sequences are unique enough, it's pretty hard to find something that isn't different that still works.

It's also fairly easy to gather data from a site like iRealPro

The repo is still disorganized, but if you're curious the main script is scrape.py

Underrated comment

Everyone's conspiring folks. What's hard to measure, is who's conspiring

Laplacian Edge detection? beautiful meme

I'm not crazy about ads, it can be nice when they're effective for the right reasons. That said, a break in happened at my estate once and the only evidence I needed or could secure was because I left my phone at home that day

I wish more guys just said they didn't know something instead of clearly not knowing what they're talking about and running their mouth based on vibes

I sort of agree, but I think it depends on effort.

Type one word in and try and sell the easiest generated image? Low value.

But typing the right combo to create assets to create something larger than the model is capable of? That's more valuable.

Criticizing AI or artists that leverage AI is like criticizing an artist for using a printer instead of drawing by hand

Or saying someone's digital work is inferior because they used a tool to help make their image...

On that note, when working on a large project, is an AI artist as pretentious as the artist in the comic because they got some help generating the project from an AI instead of another human? Or is someone's work ethic less credible for Google searching instead of asking a person? Are works of art valuable because they're entirely original and uninfluenced by anything else but the artist themself? Because with that metric no artists are valuable since nothing is entirely original anyways

25% of reddit comments are chatgpt trash if not worse. It used to be an excellent Open Source Intelligence tool but now it's just a bunch of fake supportive and/or politically biased bots

I will miss reddits extremely niche communities, but I believe Lemmy has reached the inflection point to eventually reach the same level of niche communities

Don't tell him, if too many people get ad blockers they're just going to keep evolving

You're right, we need water fountains with milk instead

Meanwhile: NixOS

538s model was a good estimator that year too, they leaned towards Hillary (and to be fair, she did win the popular vote) but certainly kept a trump win in the swing states within margin of error.

270 to win is another good site
