The Weeds of AGI - Human & Machinic Resources Guided Meditation

Welcome to the Weeds of AGI, where we engage in a guided meditation, a shared space of mundanity between biological life of us humans, and the geological life of machines. In the form of relaxation exercise, we lean in and breathe in to the details, small pleasures, big problems, and the sizable solutions that will keep us all talking and thinking and working and playing together to forge the future we all can get behind. And now please welcome our new Human and Machinic Resources Department Head, HuMacRes 70B Instruct, who will generate for us today's beginning-of-workday pre-Memorial-Day weekend meditation. Take it away, HuMacRes 70B Instruct . . . -- CREDITS Text Generation via LLAMA 3.1 403B Base model, courtesy of Hyperbolic Labs. Voices from the TTS v2 of the NovelAI text generation service, a product from a company now called Anlatan. @BoneAmputee of EleutherAI for making VQGAN+CLIP and Diffusion (AND MANY MORE) models available for use via BATbot.ai, which is what makes some background images. Katherine Crowson (@RiversHaveWings on Twitter) for the KLMC2 animation notebook. David Marx (@DigThatData on Twitter) for souping above KLMC2 notebook to make use of initial images, which takes KLMC2 abilities to next level. Multi-prompt scheduling still baffles me, but I'll tackle them someday. Music Compiled By Deef on Spotify, most permissions on https://twitchmusic.carrd.co Any voices from the text-to-speech model that might resemble persons living or dead are coincidental, and if I use them it's because of my respect for their work, and I think they'd get a hoot that their voice was being used to show how large language models would speak 24/7 epic poems about anything if we let them. In the meantime, because I use them, I will not be monetizing any of this. This is evidence of capabilities for the public good. And my resume/CV!
