How do you mesh this argument with non-rgb imaging? I feel like one of the big splits I’m seeing is that while “world” and video models mature, I can’t exactly just pour spad measurements into my model without first turning them into some kind of intermediate representation

Maybe I'm just missing info, but it feels like ST doesn't do a great job of capturing the value it creates. We have a bunch of luxury apartments going up in Redmond, with a lot of the value created by the light rail station, but I don't see this money going back to ST?

In terms of downtown wayfinding I feel like a couple of these badbois pointing towards pike's place/closest light rail station/other attractions would do 99.9% of the work of a digital display

Free wifi throughout downtown is a great idea, but in NYC a lot of these kiosks quickly turned into (a) at best a nice graffiti art installation (b) at worst yet another thing that made the sidewalk narrower and harder to roll a cart/stoller through

I'm having a lot of trouble locally running llama-2, any suggestions? They keep spitting and hissing at me whenever I try to chat with them, and using GPUs (grass processing units) isn't speeding up inference.

honestly the most I’ve ever been impressed by an LLM was when chatgpt found a meme I saw a couple years ago based on my my absolutely deranged vague description of what animals / visual elements were in it

Going through airport security, the TSA asked me to “open my burrito” to demonstrate it was in fact a burrito.

For academia (particularly graphics/CV folks) it’s also a hard tradeoff. Why spend time figuring out data capture and low-level camera stuff when generative AI is right there.

You’d be surprised how small the publishing circle of computational photography is. The best/most interesting methods get implemented into products, but if something is too productizable it’s hard to find time/willingness to publish it.

Curious about how cities have changed in the past decade? We use MLLMs to analyse 40 million Street View images to answer this. Do you know that "'juice shops' became a thing in NYC" and "miles of overpasses were painted BLUE in SF"? More at→boyangdeng.com/visual-chronicles (vid ↓ w/ 🔊)

Getting absolutely no reviewer feedback on a fellowship app feels very unproductive (NSF MSPRF). With conference rejections I can at least encorporate reviewer feedback for the next submission, but with this NSF app it's like "was my outline bad? did the reviewers hate my font choices?" who knows.

Tweet from @dril with an edit. Original says:

“Food $200
Data $150
Rent $800
Candles $3,600
Utility $150
someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying”

The edit is that the candles line is crossed out and replaced with “Tariffs: $6 trillion”

I still remember my school librarian telling me to get off wikipedia and read an actual book (circa 2007)

ChatGPT also feels like the early days of Wikipedia because teachers keep yelling at kids not to use it (and they use it anyways)

Only a couple weeks left to submit a paper to Neural Fields Beyond Conventional Cameras at CVPR 2025! neural-bcc.github.io#call4paper Our *non-archival* workshop welcomes both previously published and novel work. A great opportunity to get project feedback and connect with other researchers!

If you see this, quote a game with a 10/10 soundtrack. I think Bastion and Transistor were my first obvious choices, but after thinking about it I think by just sheer amount of time I've listened to an OST it has to be Anno 1800. Perfect background music for coding, painting, and naval warfare.

The biggest problem here would likely be Visas. A lot of my colleagues on F1 Visas don't exactly have the option to leave the US safely, with a lot of folks skipping even Canadian conference locations.
