Ever wondered how can your mobile phone play a video recorded by an ultra high definition camera and with hundreds of gigabytes in size smoothly? Technology advancements and demand for high resolution video have significantly increased in the past decades. Users are now able to stream 4K content on their devices without any interruption. This revolution caused the file sizes of these videos to go from few megabytes to hundreds of gigabytes making it hard for content providers to store and manage large files. It has also increased the demand for highly capable network solutions to handle the data traffic sent with the increase of digital content. But what is the solution, can companies continue expanding their data servers? This is where compression technologies come into play. Content providers can shrink the size of 100GB file to 100MB in order to distribute these files to the end user. There are dozens of compression technologies in the market that make the day to day video distribution smooth and possible. The goal of each compression (codec) can be different for example the H.264 generation of codecs are used for distribution purposes therefore, used in streaming platforms like Youtube. Conversely, codec like JPEG XS, targets professional environments like live production or broadcast where high quality video data is contentiously sent from venue for example a stadium to the studios and to the viewers without any latency and quality degradation. #videocompression #codecs #broadcast #liveproduction #Compressiontechnologies #H264 #JPEGXS #tech

PREDICTION - If you remember back in the day when streaming started out large streaming companies would put caching servers at service providers. With the growth of Ai we might start to see mLM/sLM intelligance nodes near the edge or in middle mile data centers. There has been some concern about balancing the power grid and this would allow power consumption to be used locally. Interesting concept right?

Welcome to the Automation First Era: Your guide to a thriving enterprise in an automated world If you grew up in the United States during the 1980s and ‘90s, you probably remember browsing the aisles of your local video store on a Friday night. Video rental stores, like #Blockbuster, were the way that #American families #accessed a wide selection of movies to view at home. Now, in #response to shifts in #business practices during the cloud-first era of computing, we have #dozens of streaming services to browse and watch TV shows and movies. Video stores have mostly disappeared as companies #embraced new #technological trends that #provided #customers with a more convenient viewing experience. https://lnkd.in/dA4un-TD

UNIT 19, Conduct 14, Mobile Phone Etiquette During Livestreaming! Join us live at COMETSA Radio Worldwide (CRW) this evening at 19h00 (SAST), using the link, https://lnkd.in/dmKSp3fE. Understand the importance of mobile phone etiquette in a professional setting, especially during the live streaming session. You may have to integrate your handset as streaming equipment or as background and studio communication support. We are discussing the do’s and don’ts that must be observed. There are acceptable practices that advance the objectives of streaming. We will also look at the trends and imagine the future role of mobile phones in the AI era.

Did You Know? The First Webcam Was Created to Monitor Coffee! ☕💻 A team of computer scientists from the University of Cambridge created the first webcam in 1993. They did this, but for what reason? Because it allowed them to save themselves from wasted trips to the break room, where it was displayed, which could confirm if the pot in question had coffee in it or not. That quirky invention was the reason behind modern video streaming technology today. #DidYouKnow #ITTechnology #TechHistory #Innovation #Webcam #TechFunFacts

I just tested the newly released #Llama-3 with 70 billion params quantized by NousResearch as Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct-GGUF, running on #Llama.cpp on my MAC. ~ 50GB model size, used ~90GB RAM during inference and 100% of my M3Max :-). The speed is incredible for a model that size, running locally. The streaming output is a live recording. It is quite hard to keep up with the exponentially growing innovation - start learning and exploring. #NeverStopLearning, #GenAI, #TheFutureIsNow, #AIControlledByYou, #IMNI

Hosting validation models opens up interesting usecases, like streaming validated LLM outputs. These models run on GPU based instances that perform much better than running stuff on our M2 macs. This opens up possibilities, like creating validated, streamed chat experiences. In our video we stream back results from an LLM request validate live (while processing the stream) to scrub out PII and profanity. While a little latency is added, it’s still really quick. Streaming validations is difficult to do, we wrote a small paper on it a bit ago: https://lnkd.in/gzk2gea9 These are the validators that we currently host, check them out on https://lnkd.in/gxYvyDfm - Toxic Language - Detect PII - NSFW Text - Competitor Check - Restrict to Topic Let us know if you’d like to see more hosted validators!

Hi everyone! Just a heads up about the third article in my Wireless Horizons series: ran into some tech gremlins, but we've sorted them out and we're back on track (standard for tech, right!) Also been a little busy with Safer Internet Day etc, so... Sorry for the delay, but I'm back on track and better than ever. Can't wait to hear your feedback and kick-start the discussion. Stay tuned - and let's roll, this time it's all about 5G! #WirelessHorizons #5GInnovation #ConnectivityFuture https://lnkd.in/esGqiirz
