A few months ago we quietly open-sourced a PyTorch video decoding library called torchcodec -- small, nimble, fast, supports GPU decoding via ffmpeg. The Hugging Face folks had some nice things to say about it as they integrated it into LeRobot. Check it out here: github.com/pytorch/torc...

what are AI products that allow me to transform existing images, while preserving some selective details (that i select), like faces, areas, etc.? the tools I've used so far only take the selection as a hint, or dont generate well around the selection? trying personalized art

i rabbit-holed into the Genesis Sim codebase because it went viral on X, and the website is hypey and unclear; and I didn't want to just blindly retweet. genesis-embodied-ai.github.io 👇

intelligence is starting to get good, but context is still siloed for stupid reasons. get models that do human-level computer-use already, please...!

Glean for personal/self-hosted: is there an open source / self-hosted project that integrates pulling context from gmail, docs, sheets, calendar, whatsapp, ig, imessage, etc.?

I'd like to introduce what I've been working at @hellorobot.bsky.social: Stretch AI, a set of open-source tools for language-guided autonomy, exploration, navigation, and learning from demonstration. Check it out: github.com/hello-robot/... Thread ->

Very excited about this new project, DynaMem. It allows our robots to function in previously unseen environments, performing long-horizon manipulation tasks. Most importantly it *generalizes*, meaning you can try it out on a wide variety of homes and on different objects. (4x video)
