Introducing my latest project, 3DConversions.com … AI-powered 2D-to-3D mesh generation built specifically for 3D crystal engraving (subsurface laser engraving).
In the crystal engraving industry, operators normally pay $6-10 per subject for human-sculpted meshes that are then engraved into crystal. My platform automates the entire process.
It performs automatic background removal with segmentation (plus point-and-click refinement), 180-degree 3D mesh reconstruction in Wavefront OBJ, texture contrast optimization for engraving clarity, and soon, point cloud export for laser-ready files.
The pipeline is tuned for crystal-friendly content like portraits and pets, and the models are optimized for the features we see the most: faces, hair, glasses, fingers, and common poses. And where AI falls short, we have designers ready to fix difficult images.
The final result is high quality, engraving-ready 3D meshes in minutes instead of paying human designers per-subject sculpting fees with 24+ hour turnaround.

There are two types of people replying to this:
- Those that immediately read this and say "SAMSUNG IS EVIL! THEY SHOULD BE PROSECUTED! PEOPLE NEED TO GO TO JAIL!"
- Those that read the summary, think "hmm, I wonder why," check the product detail page, and see that Samsung TVs have AI features to detect crying babies and barking dogs, and that it's right there on their marketing pages
you guys are worried about claude banning you for even asking about reverse engineering and i'm asking Sol 6.1 to create scripts to mass download TV shows off The Pirate Bay
i don’t even know how my clankers work, couldn’t even define a token
this guy is doing invasive brain surgery on open models
All the talk about “hacking” your Samsung TV…
So I used my tokens today to build a media streaming app that will show BOTH Korean and English subtitles for kdramas, plus let you see definitions of each word, and go line by line if you want to study in depth.
Stuff like this has always been on the computer but now I can do it on the big screen!
this is extremely true imo
Cold? Go to the doctor. Sniffles? Go to the doctor.
But copays are like $10 and many times it’s needed for a prescription for some medicine that’s available OTC in the west.
Plus many doctors’ offices are open late, until like 8pm. So it’s quite convenient.
well articulated reasons to root against them xitter.cf/cybersec/status/211344…
"we tried to warn the world".
What a way to say:
"we gate kept our models so that only the to 100 companies who could afford to pay us millions of dollars had access to them"
"we created the most unrealistic guardrails for every small business, code maintainer, and hobbyist around so you couldn't actually check your shit for vulnerabilties"
"we created a FAKE CVP that takes your identity, but doesn't actually given any usability to solve for cyber issues"
"AI will kill 10% of the population if you dont let us be the only ones to tell you whats good and bad in AI"
Is everyone in this company living inside of a bubble, inside of a bubble, where they think they are humanities saviors?
"Dont worry guys, we're going to save you if you just pay us millions a month for access to our models, but only if you're a top F100 company, and than you little peons have to pay millions to them to get to the millions from us."
Oh yeah....you tried to warn us.
People have predicted the demise of AppleScript for more than 10 years.
I bet Apple is glad now, in the era of agentic automation, they never did fully pull the plug.

We talk in terms of Tokens/Sec right now. But picture a world where we measure in kilotokens/sec or even megatokens/sec.
We won’t even need apps anymore. Any information you want to work with - bank statements, images, CAD files, an interface could instantly be generated on demand with your content, perhaps with a consistent navigation or toolset.
Even the operating system itself could be an outdated paradigm in a new Mt/s world.
When people say software is safe… be skeptical. Everything will change.
New iPhone Duo is pretty sick, glad it’s on order
Main screen is def small though
It gets pretty hot using it too
After overwhelming demand to stream publicly, I can announce DAN'S TRAINCAM is now live on youtube!

delight yourself, your friends, and your family by watching this view from on top of my washing machine onto the Gyeongui–Jungang rail corridor.
Live every day from dawn to dusk.
I had a "trained" (heh) vision model that could identify the train types in the winter... but then the leaves grew in and threw the model off.
So I'll have to retrain it but I think I'll wait until the leaves fall next month.
I always wondered why Tesla didn't do more with their maps.
With a connected fleet as large as theirs is, they could easily map the planet. It never made sense to me that closed roads wouldn't be updated in Tesla's navigation for months when the data is there.
Plus - with appropriate privacy updates - they could have a better, more updated Street View-like system than Google ever could do.
Anyway, this is a great start!
Tesla said today that they’re rebuilding the entire in-vehicle navigation system from the ground up with AI. It’s going to have voice integration, and will learn your personalized preferences:
Ashok: “It’s only right that we shouldn’t be depending on external people’s maps. So we are building our own maps, but not like the same way as traditional maps.
We are building an entire new architecture with essentially AI-based mapping and navigation. It’s going to be super awesome. It’s going to be integrated with voice. You can talk to it and ask for different routes. It’s going to learn your personalized preferences, plus also the fleet preferences. The collective intelligence of all the cars are going to flow into making the maps and navigation.
You’ll see the start and end of trips already use this technology pretty soon as part of the V15 release. Over the next several months, it’s just going to take over all of the navigation functions, parking, destination handling. We’ll know you better than you know yourself in some regard for the driving tasks. It’ll handle it fully.”
Can’t wait for V15. It’s going to include so many new features.
I really don’t understand how you could own goal yourself like this? All the tides were in your favor.
Is this what happens when you’re at the top - no one ever tells you to shut the fuck up?
