Firebase/GCP account (for telemetry and deployment)

Surreal Database should have this built in, and I am hoping they will in the future just like Gel, Firebase and Supabase!

Firebase stands as an essential platform for crafting robust and scalable applications. Now, a significant advancement in the developer journey has arrived:

Firebase is an all-in-one platform that provides a suite of backend services, including a real-time, NoSQL JSON database. It's a powerhouse for building entire applications, especially mobile apps.

For backends, "Supabase or Firebase for setting up a backend with authentication and data storage."

Firebase - a Backend-as-a-service platform developed by Google to enable us to add authentication, database, real-time communication, file storage, cloud functions, and many others within software applications.

The core idea is to leverage the power of both cloud-based AI models and on-device (local) AI processing within a single application. The Firebase AI SDK provides this capability, allowing you to prioritize running AI tasks directly on the user's device whenever possible, while seamlessly falling back to cloud processing if the on-device model is unavailable or insufficient.

For years, the Firebase platform has been synonymous with rapid, scalable application development, largely built upon the foundations of its NoSQL databases, Firestore and the Realtime Database.

A site with fake profiles like https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/ with weird twists in the description may be a good joke site if someone decides to implement it. (And monetize it selling adds to real dating sites?)

%%bash source sadtalk_env/bin/activate cd SadTalker # Download a random face from ThisPersonDoesNotExist mkdir -p examples/source_image wget https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/ -O examples/source_image/art_0.jpg # Generate speech using gTTS python -c " from gtts import gTTS text = 'Hello, I am your virtual presenter.

Add yourself a tool for generating an image of a human face. It is really simple. Just visit https://thispersondoesnotexist.com. This will generate such an image. You just have to download it and store it somewhere. Give yourself some options/parameters (i.e. location where to save the image). And write the tool in a way so that it can be integrated in coding workflow easily. For example, we just created testimonials for a website. This tool would be handy to generate a face for the testimonial giver. So I hope you get what I want.”

It's sad they used such a lame generator when Nvidia has had this near-perfect one for many years:

The website https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/ has been mentioned a few times on HN; is there a voice equivalent to this concept?

The question came to mind when we were evaluating an AI multilingual, voice-over service and someone asked about indemnification from copyright claims (eg: if this service used a voice that sounded too much like Scarlet Johanssen, for example). Surely there are purely AI voices out there immune from this, possibly even voices that are mashups of real and artificial voices that "sound real" but don't voice-print back to a real human because it's a computer mash-up... or is this a novel concept?
