There are new topics on the stage.

Claude's free open test is known as ChatGPT's "strongest competitor"

Contrary to ChatGPT's cumbersome registration threshold, Claude can be said to have removed the "door handle". Starting last weekend, as long as you have a proper online posture and sign up for a free Slack account, you can complete the registration in a few minutes and use this Claude artifact out of the box.

Although OpenAI's ChatGPT and GPT-4 are recognized as powerful, Claude has extraordinary potential even if he is not evenly matched. Tested by netizens, it can play back and forth with ChatGPT whether it is arithmetic, design code, or Chinese writing, idiom Solitaire. Coupled with the current "free" bonus, compared to some restrictions of ChatGPT, it is indeed the "strongest competitor" of ChatGPT worth trying.

SD developers open source large language models

Can StableLM reproduce the SD trend?

Stable Diffusion is currently one of the most mainstream and important AI painting models. The bigwigs in the open source community have created many interesting plug-ins and models based on it. Before ChatGPT became popular, some friends had experienced the artifact of AI first.

And its developer, Stability AI, dropped another bomb on the open source community on April 29 (Wednesday). The large language model StableLM is still an open source and transparent model, free to use and modify the code . That's right, like Stable Diffusion, you can configure it freely, or even customize StableLM for your needs. Although compared with the 175 billion parameters of the GPT-3 model, the StableLM model with a maximum of 7 billion at present and a maximum of 65 billion in the future is indeed much smaller, but with more powerful extended data set training and strong support from the open source community, it may still be possible. Will repeat the success of Stable Diffusion again.

In addition, it can be used The ability to produce high-quality images with shorter prompts (or even unfilled negative prompts) is also an exciting new improvement. However, SD-XL also reported that it may not be compatible with the previous version of the plug-in. This is what netizens do not want to see. After all, the current open source community has accumulated many excellent plug-ins, LoRa models, and compatibility It may be a major factor in determining whether SD-XL will become popular in the future.

Adobe's "Firefly" AI is "brilliant" again

No difficulty in video creation, materials and scripts can be played

A month ago, Adobe announced the launch of Firefly, which was initially only used to generate copyright-free images, but from April 18 (Tuesday), Firefly began to attack the video field. Compared with "creating videos", Firefly's current focus is on making it easy for anyone to edit videos. You can adjust the color division with just a few words. You can tell Firefly directly what music and sound effects you want. Can't make a title? It can be used to create animations for opening titles of dynamic fonts and graphic logos.

In the future, Firefly also promises to automatically convert scripts into storyboards and preview images, and even recommend clips to help users create better videos, which will greatly accelerate the workflow of pre- and post-production.

It is believed that with the gradual evolution of Firefly, the future professional design industry may usher in a new era.
