AlexNet was submitted to ImageNet 14 years ago today. Kicking off the modern deep learning revolution.

Wait 5 sec.

AlexNet was submitted to ImageNet on Sept 30, 2012. Three things came together: neural networks + GPUs + large datasets like ImageNet. That same basic recipe has gotten us this far with no ceiling in sight It feels right to celebrate it by pushing open and frontier models: Qwen-Image 2.1 for every illustration, LTX-2.3 for motion, Wan 2.1 + InfiniteTalk for lip sync, all running on a single 3090. Opus 5.5 drove ComfyUI and did all the editing. I spend $0 dollars not counting the Claude subscription. The song is from Suno. I prototyped styles and lyrics locally with ACE-Step 1.5 and YuE2 first, and they're close, but not quite there for vocals yet. The whole pipeline is open source if you want to try it with your own track. https://github.com/latent-variable/deep-learning-birthday   submitted by   /u/onil_gova [link]   [comments]
