pypi downloads last week: – openai: 13.4 mil (~flat over last 6 months)
– langchain: 13.8 mil (~4x over last 6 months) developers want model choice and optionality… …and they're turning to langchain to get it

Defensive Model Training: Debugging-Prioritized Approach with Toy Datasets
By
–
Recently I have taken on a more defensive style of “debugging-prioritized” model training:
– Create toy datasets that are easy to understand and have highly expected behavior as a sanity check for healthy ML training
– Put a super high cost on additional complexity not directly -
FFmpeg I-frame Approximate Mode for Faster ML Training
By
–
oh yea, so the last thing about i-frames, ffmpeg has an approximate mode which will fast-seek to whatever is the closest iframe and just return that. it works for some training workloads and is much faster. the approximate mode is exposed in torchcodec.

Efficient FFmpeg Wrapper for PyTorch Video Processing
By
–
it's a "proper" efficient wrapper around ffmpeg for PyTorch, using some of ffmpeg's fast seeking and read-ahead APIs correctly, as well as using memory buffers correctly, avoiding allocs and copies.

PyTorch Releases torchcodec: Fast Open-Source Video Decoding Library
By
–
A few months ago we quietly open-sourced a @PyTorch video decoding library called torchcodec — small, nimble, fast.
The @LeRobotHF folks had some nice things to say about it. -
