teaching a transformer net to approximate ray-tracing
input is a sequence of triangle data (limited to 4k triangles), and a sequence of 8x8 radiance pixels representing the camera (limited to 512x512 resolution)
output is a sequence of 8x8 pixels of the rendered scene. training was ~10 days. generation is ~100ms (NVIDIA A100)
the results are pretty good. scaling will be a challenge (since transformers are quadratic in sequence length)

Apropos @… the french developer collective @… are currently trying to raise the (for #bigTech derisory) amount of EUR 75,000 to develop the opensource #fediverse competitor app to Youtube. Maybe chuck 'em a few euros if you think it useful?

"despite the law being very clear, actually, a few very determined transphobes have crawled their way to the heart of the law like maggots in an apple. A system that has been working perfectly well since 2010 has now been unnecessarily tampered with – and Starmer has capitulated because he’s spineless"

I have the same choices over my life and body that I would want for every single person on earth. I’m not trying to make a statement about what a woman is, I just want to be one, writes Juno Dawson – who appears on The Independent’s Pride list 2025

"If one uses the word “fascism”, people accuse you of hysteria – but isn’t this precisely what fascism looks like? A minority group is unfairly demonised until public opinion sours sufficiently for lawmakers to impose restrictions on said group"

"I changed my passport in 2015, but now I can’t get a visa to the USA for my book tour unless I say I’m male? Will I get detained at JFK? My birth certificate was lawfully reissued in 2018 as a female birth certificate, but now I’m not a woman legally?"
