Under the Hood | Episode 1: Step-by-Step Guide to Hugging Face and Generative AI

Welcome Back :)
In this episode, I welcome you to a new collaboration series starring Miguel (aka Angry Penguin), where we dive into the world of generative AI tools, focusing on Hugging Face Spaces.
We offer tips for beginners and explain how to explore and use these tools without stress. Miguel will share insights on navigating Hugging Face, creating and duplicating spaces, and understanding the intricacies of open source licenses.
We also discuss ways to learn and stay updated in the rapidly evolving generative AI space (we know how confusing it can be).

Great work Heather and AP! This should help a lot of the ones just getting into AI get into the cutting edge side of AI (no pretty UI)

[@Visually_AI]

Thank you! That's our goal ☺

[@mirrorizeai]

Love this ❤❤❤

[@Visually_AI]

Thank you! We're excited about this new format and we have a lot of topics planned, soon😊

[@mirrorizeai]

@@Visually_AI I was hoping for this, I sit down and watch UA-cam videos to learn pretty often, on X I kind of just peruse, both are great glad to see you expanding 💖

[@JuanMartinezjm]

Great video Heather. I always have wonderedd on X how you come up with all those diff promotes and videos. Idk anything about hugging faces. Hopefully you guys will do some basic teaching. thank you.

[@Visually_AI]

Thanks for watching, Juan! I'm interested in a lot of different types of gen AI, so I am always learning about new tools and use cases. We hope to bring more attention to platforms like Hugging Face and Glif, and teach people some of the things you can do with those resources. We're going to cover a lot more topics, including installing ComfyUI and working with open-source models. Please stay tuned for more😊
