I finally found some time to start watching the new series of short LLM courses by Andrew Ng. To keep myself motivated and on track with my learning, I will be sharing my study notes over this period, aiming to make progress together with everyone! 🤗

Andrew Ng's LLM Short Course Notes 1: ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for Developers

There have been many noteworthy tools for 2D/3D/video generation recently, but to produce a complete AIGC work, sound is definitely indispensable. 🤔

Everything about AI Voice Generation (Speech + Music + Lip Sync)

Try to create a silicon-based creature atlas animation using the method of artificial evolution guidance + GPT4/chatGLM + stable diffusion / Midjourney + Runway GEN2. It feels like AI can create the world from scratch now! 🥰

Silicon-based lifeform: Diatom Cloud Jester

This is a super hardcore long article about AI + architecture + creation. I would like to thank Hua Jie, Xiao Gang, Zhang Wanlin, and other global knowledge-sharing friends for their efforts. Through the enlightening Q&A, I have learned a lot myself (resulting in a hardcore and systematic article).
