I dont understand, so its just to generate the pic using a model. Isn't that trivial, whats the advantage of doing it in C? Is the model running in C? Readme is overly verbose and It seems like a project that just does one task and it costed the author $80.

Why it costed me $80? I pay the monthly subscription, and during that time I use it for multiple things. I spent one day of Claude Max on that so it costed me 2 euros and 60 cents.

  • I may have misread that. Anyway, its 2.60 euros plus value of your time unless it was done with ralph agents.

    • It is worth it. There is value in making open frontier models simple to run / integrate.

Yes, the model runs in C, you just provide the model weights to the program.

The main advantage is that you don't need the python interpreter to run the program.

While not revolutionary, it is definitely not trivial and its main purpose is to demonstrate Claude code abilities in a low level, non trivial task.

The author of this project is also the author of redis. He knows what he is doing.

Running inference for a model, even when you have all the weights, is not trivial.

because of the principle: you only understand what you can create. You think you know something until you have to re-create it from scratch.
