SwitchLight – Relighting AI in the Browser
Hoon Kim here. SwitchLight is an AI VFX editor that enables filmmakers to completely change lighting after the shot was taken. SwitchLight works by the user loading an image/video and then selecting a background. Our AI removes the actor from their original background and composite them into the new background while simultaneously relighting them correctly to reflect their new environment. The final result is pixel-accurate with realistic shadows and highlights. Users also have full access to intermediate passes (normal, albedo, depth, roughness) for their custom use case and…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hoon Kim here. SwitchLight is an AI VFX editor that enables filmmakers to completely change lighting after the shot was taken. SwitchLight works by the user loading an image/video and then selecting a background. Our AI removes the actor from their original background and composite them into the new background while simultaneously relighting them correctly to reflect their new environment. The final result is pixel-accurate with realistic shadows and highlights. Users also have full access to intermediate passes (normal, albedo, depth, roughness) for their custom use case and controllability. We initially launched SwitchLight for casual users (selfies, headshots, etc.), but most heavily engaged users were professionals from VFX industry. As a result, we pivoted towards a more professional industry and we are preparing a Desktop app and Nuke Plugins (with unlimited number of inferences). Sorry for the forced login. We have limited GPU resource, so we had to limit total number of inferences per user. We're eager to hear your thoughts and feedback!

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

I saw this [0] pretty cool thread by user revskill, and wanted a quicker way to search through it, but also to keep them all in one place so I can read them at my leisure whenever I get time. Right now is like 60 lines of Ruby using Nokogiri, but I will certainly look into it further down the line and improve the list. There's a cronjob checking the thread every 12 hours but I will eventually shut that down and it will become static after that. There are some really awesome blogs in there. I really recommend going through the list, it made my day. [0] "Could you share your personal blog…
