notes on AI state of the art, with a focus on generative and large language models. These are the "raw materials" for the https://lspace.swyx.io/ newsletter.
This repo used to be called https://github.com/sw-yx/prompt-eng, but was renamed because Prompt Engineering is Overhyped.
This Readme is just the high level overview of the space; you should see the most updates in the OTHER markdown files in this repo:
IMAGE_GEN.md- the most developed file, with the heaviest emphasis notes on Stable Diffusion, and some on midjourney and dalle.TEXT.md- text generation, mostly with GPT3CODE.md- codegen models, like Copilot- stubs - very small/lightweight proto pages
AGENTS.md- tracking "agentic AI"AUDIO.md- tracking audio (transcription + generation)
