We extend VALL-E and train a multi-lingual conditional codec language model to predict the acoustic token sequences of the target language speech by using both the source language speech and the target language text as prompts. You haven't heard yourself speak until you've heard yourself speak in your native Klingon
"Since VALL-E X could synthesize speech that maintains speaker identity, it may carry potential risks in misuse of the model, such as spoofing voice identification or impersonating a specific speaker." <-- Ya think?

To keep unit tests fast and isolated, the data access layer is often tested using a mock of the database. But are unit tests and mocks actually a good choice? It's trying the best it can

Quote: A real instance of the same database as used in production can be launched within an integration test, which significantly minimizes the differences between the testing and production environments.

I've been begging for this for years and been told no every time, to much PII. But then again we ONLY see some of the bugs with client data.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

That's the advantage of small teams...
In a previous job, I started a routinary process to backup the servers in images every 6 months periodically, the week before a rollout, the day before a rollout, the day after the rollout and a week after the rollout...
Not only I could roll back if something didn't work fine, but I could get one of the backups running in a VirtualBox in an Offline PC and test with real data (not necessarily up-to-date, but still a complete real set) in a controlled environment.
Being able to do my job correctly was more important for me (and my customer) than burocrats half a world away. So I just did as the quote says: "Better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission"

That can be an issue under a data protection regime, where developers generally shouldn't have access to real data except in the context of resolving issues. In such environments, great care must be taken to scramble any data that may include personally identifiable information or commercial information.

Additionally, that was before the GPDR (or however it is called in english) was activated, the server / data was in India and there were no personally identifiable information, relevant comercial information was very low (and nothing out of the scope of my work).

You may be familiar with Control + Shift + V from other programs, but now it’s coming to Microsoft’s word processor If this doesn't get everyone to upgrade, they don't know what else to add
Unless they start over with new icons, of course.

My version of Office is too old to get that upgrade...
I suppose I will have to pass to the rest of the package... what a pity.

Reporters spoke to the bad guys selling lawmakers' data, which leaked in a health insurance security breach. This should get their attention
Maybe they'll actually try to fix stuff now?
OK, that's a bigger (and sadder) joke than I expected.

Good. Maybe Congress will actually get off their collective behinds and do their job, at least with regards to creating a uniform US computer privacy Law similar to GDPR. I know the bill was introduced last year but it hasn't moved since introduction.

A driver hotfix, available via an 850MB download, will fix the problem for you. 850Mb only for a fix?

They ship the driver for all the supported boards. Which has been a godsend when my 1050 Ti died and I had to swap it with a 3060.

Using ONNX Runtime you can quickly get started generating AI images locally using your preferred .NET technologies like C# and Visual Studio! Just think of all the icons you can generate!
