Comfy-Org comfy-cli – A Command Line Tool for ComfyUI
https://github.com/Comfy-Org/comfy-cli
comfy-cli is a command line tool that helps users easily install and manage ComfyUI, a powerful open-source machine learning framework. With comfy-cli, you can quickly set up ComfyUI, install packages, and manage custom nodes, all from the convenience of your terminal.
C:\<PATH_TO>\python.exe -m venv C:\comfyUI_cli_install cd C:\comfyUI_env C:\comfyUI_env\Scripts\activate.bat C:\<PATH_TO>\python.exe -m pip install comfy-cli comfy --workspace=C:\comfyUI_env\ComfyUI install # then comfy launch # or comfy launch -- --cpu --listen 0.0.0.0If you are trying to clone a different install, pip freeze it first. Then run those requirements.
# from the original env python.exe -m pip freeze > M:\requirements.txt # under the new venv env pip install -r M:\requirements.txt

Anthropic Economic Index – Insights from Claude 3.7 Sonnet on AI future prediction
https://www.anthropic.com/news/anthropic-economic-index-insights-from-claude-sonnet-3-7
As models continue to advance, so too must our measurement of their economic impacts. In our second report, covering data since the launch of Claude 3.7 Sonnet, we find relatively modest increases in coding, education, and scientific use cases, and no change in the balance of augmentation and automation. We find that Claude’s new extended thinking mode is used with the highest frequency in technical domains and tasks, and identify patterns in automation / augmentation patterns across tasks and occupations. We release datasets for both of these analyses.

Segment Any Motion in Videos
https://github.com/nnanhuang/SegAnyMo
Overview of Our Pipeline. We take 2D tracks and depth maps generated by off-the-shelf models as input, which are then processed by a motion encoder to capture motion patterns, producing featured tracks. Next, we use tracks decoder that integrates DINO feature to decode the featured tracks by decoupling motion and semantic information and ultimately obtain the dynamic trajectories(a). Finally, using SAM2, we group dynamic tracks belonging to the same object and generate fine-grained moving object masks(b).

AI 2027 – Predicting the impact of superhuman AI over the next decade
We predict that the impact of superhuman AI over the next decade will be enormous, exceeding that of the Industrial Revolution.
We wrote a scenario that represents our best guess about what that might look like.1 It’s informed by trend extrapolations, wargames, expert feedback, experience at OpenAI, and previous forecasting successes.

Survivorship Bias: The error resulting from systematically focusing on successes and ignoring failures. How a young statistician saved his planes during WW2.
A young statistician saved their lives.
His insight (and how it can change yours):
(more…)
During World War II, the U.S. wanted to add reinforcement armor to specific areas of its planes.
Analysts examined returning bombers, plotted the bullet holes and damage on them (as in the image below), and came to the conclusion that adding armor to the tail, body, and wings would improve their odds of survival.
But a young statistician named Abraham Wald noted that this would be a tragic mistake. By only plotting data on the planes that returned, they were systematically omitting the data on a critical, informative subset: The planes that were damaged and unable to return.
