• Building #[[Coffee World]]

"I believe the Llama 3.1 release will be an inflection point in the industry where most developers begin to primarily use open source, and I expect that approach to only grow from here." — Mark Zuckerberg

• #[[Meta AI]] launched #Llama3.1, most capable OS model to date.
• #[[Meta AI]] are calling Llama 3.1 405B "the first frontier-level open source AI model" and it really is benchmarking in that GPT-4+ class, competitive with both GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet.
• It supports a 128K Token Context
• We’ve also updated our license to allow developers to use the outputs from Llama models — including 405B — to improve other models for the first time.
• We’re excited about how this will enable new advancements in the field through synthetic data generation and model distillation workflows, capabilities that have never been achieved at this scale in open source.

• OpenAI #[[GPT 4o Mini]].
  • OpenAI is allowing fine-tuning of GPT-4o Mini on datasets of upto 2M tokens, free till 23 Sept.
• Mapping landscape of genAI Product user experience
  • Matt Webb attempts to map out the different user experience approaches to building on top of generative AI. I like the way he categorizes these potential experiences:
    • Tools - Users control AI to generate something.
    • Copilots - The AI works alongside the user in an app in multiple ways.
    • Agents - The AI has some autonomy over how it approaches a task.
    • Chat - The user talks to the AI as a peer in real-time.

Wrote the blog on Why Product Vision Should Trump Market Demands: A Contrarian View.

Added Animations to the website using Framer Motion. It's a really cool library that makes it easy to add animations to your website.

Maybe I can create a simple project #[[cool designs]] which consists of a few pages with different animations to showcase the capabilities of Framer Motion.

• WTF Nikhil Kamath Episodes are really nice. I should watch them more often. #[[wtf-nikhil-kamath]]
