going to port this to instruction-aware embeddings tomorrow which should be a step up in accuracy

Effectiveness improves with number of examples added into the corpus. Nice thing about this is A) it's very fast compared to LLM and B) you can really add any arbitrary examples you want to filter out over time to create a fully personalized filter, which is really just a dataset.

You can also try skipping the LLM and using HYDE embedding similarity. Each time you flag something that you don't want to see, it's added to the example document corpus. Use LLM to generate examples, not at test time. I'll do a quick POC

What’s the intended use case here? Can PDQ be used for content classification generally? I thought it was more for detecting near-duplicates. So like… label one image and auto-apply it to all near-matches as well?

I have ideas on pushing some embedding workloads to the edge to help this scale better

proper framing, thank you

Something like this will become the new standard for evidenciary sources i.e. security cameras, police bodycams, forensic captures, etc.

Authentic images and video need to be hashed by a signed sensor at the A/DC interface and published contemporaneously to create a point-in-time verifiable capture event.

Chicago should deploy its guard into Texas and start abducting random white people off the street, if interstate deployments operating without warrants are just fine and dandy.

I’ve said for a while that dems need to hire Sacha Baron Cohen for their offensive messaging. Pull stunts, be outrageous, be hilarious. Entertainment is a huge dimension of this fight and dems are largely ignoring it. You need attention, not just moral superiority!

They should be doing this kind of stuff in congress too. It gets attention and like… if you’re going to make a mockery of our government, we should draw attention to the circus.
