Training LLMs end to end is hard. But way more people should, and will, be doing it in the future.
The @hf.co Research team is excited to share their new e-book that covers the full pipeline:
· pre-training,
· post-training,
· infra.
200+ pages of what worked and what didn’t. ⤵️

like MetaHuman but StyleGAN + Gaussian Splatting.
it has the quirks of StyleGAN (asymmetrical / melty features) only renders half the model but it's precise (hairs & thin features) & provides a solid latent inversion and some tricks to improve the GS model.

@froyok.fr this will sound like a bold move but since I can't use DMs, I'll give it a shot:
hello, if you happen to live near Paris, I'd really like to meet you (professionally). I don't come back often to Paris and there's a "gathering" on the 19, 20 & 21st of may, this would be a good opportunity.
