# AI Notes
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](https://twitter.com/swyx/status/1596184757682941953). This is now an [AI Engineering](https://www.latent.space/p/ai-engineer) notes repo.
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:
- `TEXT.md` - text generation, mostly with GPT-4
- `TEXT_CHAT.md` - information on ChatGPT and competitors, as well as derivative products
- `TEXT_SEARCH.md` - information on GPT-4 enabled semantic search and other info
- `TEXT_PROMPTS.md` - a small [swipe file](https://www.swyx.io/swipe-files-strategy) of good GPT3 prompts
- `INFRA.md` - raw notes on AI Infrastructure, Hardware and Scaling
- `AUDIO.md` - tracking audio/music/voice transcription + generation
- `CODE.md` - codegen models, like Copilot
- `IMAGE_GEN.md` - the most developed file, with the heaviest emphasis notes on Stable Diffusion, and some on midjourney and dalle.
- `IMAGE_PROMPTS.md` - a small [swipe file](https://www.swyx.io/swipe-files-strategy) of good image prompts
- **Resources**: standing, cleaned up resources that are meant to be permalinked to
- **stub notes** - very small/lightweight proto pages of future coverage areas
- `AGENTS.md` - tracking "agentic AI"
- **blog ideas**- potential blog post ideas derived from these notes bc
