How to try on anything with AI

Image: The Rundown

Ready to be able to try on any piece of clothing while online shopping, and get a perfect representation of how the outfit will look on you?

Give it a try on HuggingFace and test out the future of online shopping:

Guide:

  1. Navigate to the Outfit Anyone demo here.

  2. Choose which model from the list you’d like to outfit (the demo only allows the pre-selected options for now).

  3. Upload an image of the clothing item you’d like to have the model try on. For outfits that only have one piece (like a dress), upload the image to the ‘top garment’ section and leave the lower one blank.

  4. Hit ‘run’ and wait for your image to generate!

Quick Story

The Fastest AI Chip of All Time - Sohu

Image: Etched

Etched, a promising startup founded by Harvard dropouts Gavin Uberti and Chris Zhu, is developing Sohu, a unique AI chip designed specifically for running transformer models. Unlike general-purpose GPUs, Sohu is an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) built using TSMC’s 4nm process. This design offers superior performance and lower energy consumption. Uberti claims one Sohu server can replace 160 Nvidia H100 GPUs, making it a faster, cheaper, and more environmentally friendly option for businesses.

The Details 📊

Sohu’s Edge:

  • Focused Design: Built specifically for transformer models, the backbone of many advanced AI systems.

  • Efficiency: Superior inferencing performance with lower energy use compared to general-purpose GPUs.

  • Replacement Power: One Sohu server can replace 160 Nvidia H100 GPUs.

Transformers and Investment:

  • Model Focus: Transformers are key in generative AI, powering models like OpenAI’s Sora and Google’s Gemini.

  • Funding: Etched recently closed a $120 million Series A funding round, bringing total funding to $125.36 million.

Market Strategy:

  • Sohu Developer Cloud: Allows customers to preview the chip’s capabilities, aiming to boost sales.

  • Customer Interest: Unnamed customers have already reserved millions in hardware.

Why It Matters

Etched's focus on transformers and efficient design makes Sohu a standout in the competitive AI chip market. Despite potential challenges and the evolving nature of AI models, Sohu's promise of high performance and energy efficiency could carve out a significant niche in the industry.

What happens when AI chips get faster and greener? You get groundbreaking innovation! 🌱💪
