For AI to flourish here, Apple needs to open up, support standards, and get ANE properly utilized. Good luck, Apple!

  • Made a weirdly satisfying style transfer webcam app in C++

    It’s amazing how C++ ecosystem has evolved just for recent 10 years. Made an AI-powered app in just a couple of days. Probably with a little optimization can be the next cutting edge cross-platform AI-conference call app.
