Products that do what LoRA Trained on SFMTA CAD Drawings to Aerial Images does
Hey I'm Kieran and I've been playing with the intersection (pun intended) of generative AI and civil engineering for roadways. I did a test run training a LoRA on the new Flux 2 Dev model using Fal's trainer useing a custom dataset of paired images from publicly available striping CAD drawings of street layouts to aerial images of the same area. The use case here is to allow urban planners to instantly visualize their proposed changes as they work with their existing tooling. This was just a quick experiment with a small data size that exceeded my expectations so I wanted to share with you…

Hi everyone, We have been developing a platform to enable professionals to build AI assistants to help them through their work. After a few months, we realized people are trying to sell basic functionalities that can be built from scratch in a couple of hours. Due to this, individuals who are not familiar with the current SOTA are misinformed about the potential of generative models. So, we decided to open up some of our most popular templates as standalone tools for free to empower individuals and set a solid standard for what people should expect. We believe the barrier to accessing…

Hey HN! I just released a suite of AI models for deployment on UAV and other "overhead" devices to provide some understanding of the world below. The objective is to empower all sorts of open-source use cases around search and rescue, wildfire prevention, ground risk mitigation for flight over populated areas etc... The neural networks are trained for a bunch of different devices from big GPUs to tiny edge AI cameras like the Luxonis OAK, with some optimised ones for Nvidia TensorRT and other cool bits and pieces too. The main release package also includes some boilerplate code for running…

Hi guys, I’m excited to share an update on ReproModel, an open-source toolbox designed to streamline the testing and reproduction of machine learning models. I, like many of you, have really struggled with benchmarking and comparing models, from missing code, to opaque experiment parameters slowing the process. I decided to take matters into my own hands, and created a mini-toolbox in my free time to streamline the process. The goal is to reduce the time and effort spent on replicating experiments, enabling researchers to focus on innovation rather than setup. Knowing this task is not an…

My focus has been shifting towards the ML alignment space recently, and in particular the ability to translate large transformer models into human understandable circuits and algorithms. This problem potentially isn't solvable, but it is one that some groups have had success with after large amounts of effort. In attempting to address this issue, I've been developing Transpector. A tool scaling up and reducing the barrier to entry of techniques that these teams have been showing success with. Techniques aiming to understand the internal mechanics of the model. Currently this tool is focused…

Hey HN, After GPT-3 created waves in the tech industry, a lot of AI tools were emerging and with that, some AI website builders But the results seemed way too generic to us. It felt like the developers were rushing to catch the wave instead of building a proper tool We took our time, did months of RnD and finally came up with something better than what others in the market are doing. It’s got better design output. While it’s still in beta, I wanted to show HN what we did. Will appreciate the feedback when you guys try it out. Here is the link to signup for the beta:…

I recently quit my job at a decent TTS company I was working for as a software developer advocate to pursue what I have always enjoyed doing, which is creating software that is helpful. Before and after quitting my job, I have always found it expensive and time-consuming to hire a designer that can come up with a decent logo for my software, and as a software engineer, I really enjoy coding, not designing. One day, I made a pretty bold move to design a logo, and it took me a whole day to come up with a logo that looks nice. This is the reason I built Owl AI, a logo generator that generates…

Hey HN! After using a combination of Unsloth and Axolotl a lot, and finding it generally painful to figure out the right performance tuning for things like batch sizing and multi-GPU sharding, I wrote a small Python lib that sets up known-good LoRA training configurations for Llama 3.1 8B and 70B Instruct, and includes helpers for distilling from larger models or training on serverless finetuning platforms, and includes a walkthrough for distilling DeepSeek-R1 into a Llama 3.1 8B LoRA... But you can use it for pretty much any finetuning task, not just distilling large models!

Hello everyone, I doubt this would be relevant to the kind of person who uses HN, but I thought I could share for some feedback. I built this site because there is a whole world of people who believe in new age spirituality and I am very much one of them. It is a site where you get the users gender their goals and their images and use AI and psychology to generate images of them in the process of achieving their goals. I am so deeply struggling with how to get this highly on Google. I don't even know if that is important anymore. What are your suggestions with distribution and getting in…

Hi HN, I’ve been tinkering with this for a while and finally have it in a decent state. It’s a plotter robot that draws caricatures from photos. I trained a diffusion model (Flux Kontext LoRA) on caricature images, 3D-printed a Sharpie mount for my Ender 3, and hacked together a pipeline that goes photo → caricature → G-code. After a lot of trial and error it’s working pretty well, and I put up a little site where you can try it out. Happy to answer questions or hear any feedback. Thanks!

It works by using open AIs new gpt-image API, image processing algorithms and some prompt engineering. Still has some limitations, but can already generate ready to use assets.

I spent the past week implementing a 1 Layer Neural Net and training it on MNIST within the visual scripting language provided by scratch.mit.edu. It was tedious, but ultimately not too difficult. The code runs incredibly slowly, so much so that 64 samples of MNIST takes 5+ hours to train on my machine. There were a lot of little mini challenges that were fun to overcome (implementing softmax was very tricky). If you're interested, I encourage you to try and improve on it! More details in the linked blog post.

Hi HN, I built Lungo, a tool that generates image-based slideshows and UGC-style videos using AI. The system creates visuals and assembles them into structured, shareable content based on a text prompt. What it does: • Generates images from prompts using a custom diffusion model • Constructs slideshows or short-form videos with transitions and optional voiceover • Handles layout, text generation, and multi-language support • Outputs are consistent in resolution and format, ready for distribution I built with a React, firebase, OpenAI, Runway and ffmpeg. Feedback and questions welcome.

Hey HN, I’m excited to share PRISM, an open-source system we’ve been building that fuses multiple AI models (OpenAI, Anthropic, and FAL API) with Processing to create evolving geometric art and static images. The idea came from our fascination with how AI can generate new forms but often lacks a memory or evolutionary approach. PRISM aims to solve that by “remembering” past successes and failures and then adapting its creative approach over time + useful for automating batches and variations of specific styles of techniques with prompt adjusting. *Key Features:* - Multi-model AI Generation:…

I had 14,000 photos sitting on a drive and wanted an excuse to play with local vision models and Elixir/Phoenix. I originally tried to get LLaVA to tell me if a photo was 'good' or matched my style, but quickly learned that LLMs have terrible taste. I ended up demoting the LLM to just extract metadata, and built a custom CLIP/Ridge Regression pipeline to actually learn my preferences based on how I rate things. The stack is Phoenix/Oban on the orchestrator side, and Python/FastAPI/Instructor for the AI workers. Happy to answer any questions about the architecture,…

I've been experimenting with ways to increase AI adoption for non-technical people. Basically, all companies are pushing for AI because it's all over the news and they feel left behind but most people have no clue where to start. I think 90% of people (ie non coders) are sufficiently well served by using cowork instead of claude code or something similar. If we can get people from sales, customer support, marketing, etc to collaborate with skills and cowork to form a company brain, I think it's gold. So I think there's opportunity for the community to share skills that work well for 1000s of…

Hey HN! Thank you for all the support and feedback on my original submission 2 months ago. I've been improving the backend using a MCTS/AlphaZero approach and it's currently producing much better results. My long term goal is to allow users to manage multiple projects, deployed autonomously, both from scratch and by making continual updates all prompted with natural language. The cost of each project has been lowered to $9 as performance with smaller models has improved (I migrated from Claude-3-Opus to gemini-1.5-flash). Thanks for checking it out!

Been in the AI image gen space since 2023, before even GPT image gen was a thing, and after spending ~9K on Facebook ads for my own projects (made a video about that actually) I realized the thing I kept getting stuck on was the creatives themselves. I'm horrible at making reels-type video ads and Canva even with templates is surprisingly complicated for ad-specific stuff, plus everything ends up looking the same as everyone else using the same templates. Made a video going into detail about the full FB ads journey if anyone's interested:…
