My friend Matt Sands was once going to write a book to be called Alfred Nobel's Other Mistake.
This is the first thing you have to know about supervised learning:Both of those already have hardware acceleration available as of the 2010s.
- training is when you learn model parameters from input. This literally means learning the best value we can for a bunch of number input numbers of the model. This can easily be on the hundreds of thousands.
- inference is when we take a trained model (i.e. with the parameters determined), and apply it to new inputs
Intel supercomputer market share from 1993 to 2020
. Source. This graph is shocking, they just took over the entire market! Some good pre-Intel context at The Supermen: The Story of Seymour Cray by Charles J. Murray (1997), e.g. in those earlier days, custom architectures like Cray's and many others dominated.To change font size: stackoverflow.com/questions/21363334/how-to-add-font-size-in-subtitles-in-ffmpeg-video-filterThe default appears to be 24, so just multiply that by whatever seems like a reasonable factor.
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "subtitles=subtitle.srt:force_style='Fontsize=64'" output.mp4Note howver that .ass subtitle files can contain style information, which ffmpeg respects. Aegisub can produce and preview such styles, making .ass one of the best options.
This idea also comes up in other sources of course.

Some people say, "Give the customers what they want." But that's not my approach. Our job is to figure out what they're going to want before they do. I think Henry Ford once said, "If I'd asked customers what they wanted, they would have told me, 'A faster horse!'" People don't know what they want until you show it to them. That's why I never rely on market research. Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page.
