Hi Steve I am building a project on digitizing catalog for a hackathon in your recent video you told you trained a model on detecting images from webpages. if you can open source that it will mean a lot because we are having very less time to complete the project.

[@matiss-runs]

Thank you for putting out these type of videos. Each video has covered advanced topic in a simple manner and made me curious about building something simular!

[@lauri2806]

I appreciate this a ton. Since seeing a nice, unique project a guy had with regarding AI, I only thought about applying multiple AI's together trying to get what I need. Now I have some new insight on what I just might be able to do by myself, with my own skills.

[@samuelparry5736]

I see Steve post.... I click...

[@MrThryler444]

Between turning to basic code and utilizing an LLM (a large "super" model) for generating customized code, I'd suggest storing both the input and output. Over time, you can train your own smaller LLM with fewer parameters, perhaps 7 or 13 billion, specifically tailored for the language/framework. By collecting user feedback through edits to the code and storing this feedback, you can achieve better results than relying on an expensive "super" model like GPT-4.

[@FlutterPythoncombo]

Steve, I really appreciate the video. Honestly, thank you. It was very informative. God bless you and whatever you build. Thanks.

[@yarapolana]

First time seeing a video by you! Instant follow, really well broken down.

[@samuelparry5736]

I'm interested in the layout hierarchy approach too. What type of model did you use for the layout hierarchy? Do you give it an image and get it to return some HTML / JSON Structure? Or do you transform the existing Figma nodes into some text representation? How did you generate the training data for this step? My initial thoughts would be to provide the model an image (the same screenshot used for the object identification step), and get it to return HTML. Then for the training data, when you take the screenshots of the webpage, you also save off the HTML and provide that as training data for the hierarchy model (maybe after some processing). If you can share, I'd love to learn more!

[@Sylarleft]

We're building an AI solution at my company. And this is the same conclusion we arrived at! Glad to see another company illustrating the same approach cu

[@rinorajeti4]

What a lovely video man, the way he talks with all the details you can tell that this is naturally true

[@cagdasucar3932]

I don't understand. Why would you need to run image detection for importing Figma designs? They already have node/element structure. Image block detection is not needed for an importer plugin like this at all. It would be useful if you wanted to build a webpage from mock-ups, not Figma.

[@weiguo9887]

Exactly what I’d like to learn! Great content! Subbed

[@stevejones6330]

Excellent video. Clear, concise, to the point.

[@arttupakarinen7642]

sooo... in a way. to automate computer use, you you need to specify tasks like "click input with label name", and this would automatically classify you an "input detection AI" which is only searching for input boxes. Different small tasks are all different AI:s OR system functions ("type text "ABC"" would call a system function) to make it efficient. Then there would be another AI for making image into TEXT and passing it to LLM for analyzing. etc. etc. And to me it does not even sound too much of trouble to train these "small task" AI:s like "Search input with label "name" " or "click red button on the center of the panel with text "OK"". .. Maybe the hard part is the TASK-delivery AI which'es function would be to turn natural language into system functions or AI models - to - system function kind of thing. would be a lot of fun!

[@adicandra9940]

Everything you build is very inspirational, Steve.

[@raven_glass]

Haflway through this video and dude STILL hasn't said how to actually do this.

[@JetSoftProHQ]

Thanks that showed that training your own AI model is simpler than we might think. We, at JetSoftPro, a software development service, also think that custom AI development can achieve faster, cheaper, and better results than using off-the-shelf large models like OpenAI's GPT-3 or GPT-4.

[@blender_wiki]

In the broader context, investing in large-scale language models (LLMs) for natural language understanding may be deemed inefficient and resource-intensive if such capabilities are not a primary requirement. A conventional coding strategy that involves breaking down workflows into modular functions with standardized algorithms, coupled with the integration of smaller machine learning models, is not only more maintainable but also facilitates better evolution. This approach is not only more realistic but also cost-effective in comparison to the utilization of extensive LLMs.

[@Thosch_io]

Very interesting! The area of opportunity within the AI sector now is niche AI's that does one specific task very well as it is impossible to compete with general models as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and other large companies has almost infinite money and resources. This means that quality of the data is as you say essential and one of the best ways to build a moat against competitors. I will definitely keep in mind that I should just write normal code to solve as much as possible before creating my own model. Do you use any open source models or have you made one from scratch? Been fiddling with fine-tuning LLMs such as llama-2 7B myself and I am now considering trying to find a model I can train instead with my own data.

I would like to know if it is possible to develop or use an artificial intelligence capable of: 1. Reading and interpreting various types of complex data codes, including hexadecimal or binary formats. 2. Identifying and isolating specific parameters within this data. 3. Modifying these parameters based on requests or predefined settings, while ensuring the security and integrity of the modified data.

[@Emmanmanis]

My friend this was a very clear and easy to comprehend video! I know nothing about coding and would like to learn more. Hypothetically if I wanted to develop a AI app. What route would you lay out based on your experience?

[@Focus11493]

not sure its possible cause i dont know much about Figma, but thinking about Figma mirror with the ability to mirror the design in the browser, id imagine you can take the generated html via inspection tools and feed that to the model instead which would kill the image detection model training step and really what you end up with is a HTML to React Component translator. its still along the same lines of what you end goal was which was taking the initial Figma design and translating it into code. anyways just food for thought from one dev to another! great vid!

[@debasishtripathy530]

Sure, here's a table summarizing the key differences between using off-the-shelf large language models (LLMs) and training your own specialized AI model: | **Characteristic** | **Off-the-Shelf LLMs** | **Specialized AI Model** | |---|---|---| | **Cost** | Generally more expensive due to high training and usage costs | Can be more cost-effective, especially for specific use cases | | **Speed** | Can be slower due to model complexity and inference time | Can be faster due to smaller size and focused training | | **Accuracy & Predictability** | May be less accurate and predictable for specialized tasks | Can be more accurate and predictable for specific use cases | | **Customization** | Limited customization options | Highly customizable to specific requirements | | **Data Requirements** | Require large amounts of data for training | May require less data, especially if using transfer learning | | **Training Time** | Can take days or weeks | Can be faster, especially for smaller models | | **Expertise Required** | Requires specialized expertise in AI and ML | Can be more accessible with basic development skills | | **Use Cases** | Suitable for general-purpose tasks | Ideal for specific, well-defined problems | In general, off-the-shelf LLMs are a good starting point for exploring AI solutions and for tasks that require general knowledge and understanding. However, if you have a specific problem that requires high accuracy, predictability, and customization, training your own specialized AI model may be a better option. It's important to carefully consider the trade-offs and requirements of your project before deciding which approach to take.

[@lost4468yt]

If you were to add an extra network that goes between the smaller ones, it suddenly starts looking (from a high level of course) like the larger scale networks in the brain. The most obvious example would be the brains Default Mode Network.

[@adrianbazeusz5337]

Great video, I always wonder how this new company actually use AI.

[@ragtop63]

Here's the kicker: None of this will work for someone who either doesn't know how to code or is a beginner/intermediate coder. If you know just enough programming to know that what a LLM is giving you is either wrong or isn't optimal, but you don't know the solution, there's no way you'll be able to validate the data you want to provide to the custom language model without involving someone (or others) who can help validate that data. At that point, which came first? The chicken or the egg?

[@lololoololdudusoejdhdjswkk347]

My question is why are you using object detection model if you can use figmas API for identifying their layout hierarchy? Sure it costs money, but I doubt it would do much and you would probably get much more comprehensive data.(like document nodes). Also I wonder if there is such as improvement to what fine tuning the LLMs do for this use case( aside from a certain framework you want to be improved(svelte)). But if you’re trying to fine tune by identifying divs and stuff and making better code choices, that must’ve taken quite a very long time(since you guys have a team it makes sense for this decision). However much of the newer LLMs like Claude do this without any help either. All in all it seems just a send more data to the “fine tuned” LLM sort of solution which honestly is how most products in this case are right now.

[@lololoololdudusoejdhdjswkk347]

Very cool, I was wondering,how were you guys able to make your layout hierarchy model and what did the image detection model help with that? Did you guys just use the code of the test data and train a prebuilt model off of that?

[@aguiremedia]

So what a solution like this be called or marketed as if one was offering this as a service?

[@bennguyen1313]

Any thoughts on tinygrad? Also, do you think that eventually the commercial models will be so much better than an open source model that training your data on your own will be for very niche cases?

[@guitarhero69]

im new to this kinda thing but what does LLM mean?? im sorry for asking the dumbest question but can someone recommend more videos like this so i can get a better grasp or whats going on in the video.

[@LoucM-h4c]

LLM stands for large language models. I presume its self explanatory what that means but a popular example is ChatGPT 3.5 / 4. It runs off of a LLM that takes text input and returns output based on predicting the 'next text' / 'what text should follow'

All this video tells me is to get pre-made code somewhere else, get premade information somewhere else, train using pre-made software. It doesn't tell me how to do it it just says get a job get money and then hire someone else to do it for you. HOW does training work? HOW does it read a model? HOW can code identify pixels on a page?

Surely Figma could be able to do this completely without AI, since the design is technically already code? Like, the design is being displayed in a browser, so it should just be a matter of optimising it and saving it to a file?
