Transcript context

…By the way, it also has torch and torch audio. I haven't tried torch audio yet. We tried torch last night. It works. The other person, he was, he freaked out for a second because he thought it was accelerated, but then we figured out now that the CPUs are, are just really good. So what I'm excited about next, it, it even has a speech library, which I'm gonna test. Whoa, whoa. Yeah, yeah. I'm, I'm wondering if you can just like upload, whisper to it and then upload an audio file and actually run whisper on it because it has all the. All you need to do that. I'm gonna try that next, but if anybody else wants to try it go ahead. I, SWIX has posted the requirements of text files, so you just gotta make sure to, to look what's there.

Huh but the combination of ff eg is super, super powerful for 3d, you know, sort for MP3 for to MP4 for video and audio play around with this. It's fairly important. Well, that's really good news because I thought they disabled these cis the, the, the subprocess.call function that lets you call binaries. But if it works with ffm PEG then presuming they haven't got Smeg Python bindings. Yeah, yeah. I think they have the bindings. Yes. So in that case, that means that some of the thick barriers I've been running to are more the model being told no, pretend that you can't do it. Which means we can, we can jailbreak it, right? We can trick it into running executables again. So maybe we can still upload Deno and get it to run if we're, if we're that, that's, if you want to exploit the thing, that's where to focus your efforts is figuring out how to get it to run the Deno binary…
