[Idea] Make an app

[SpyC0der77]

If we make an iMessage app it would be way cooler and easier. My idea is to host this on a huggingface space, and then we could use the gradio hugging face api to call it, so we would be using huggingfaces servers.

[kingbranston]

I think this has huge potential, but again the issue is going to be where that GPU horsepower is, its gotta be cloud right?

[SpyC0der77]

yeah, huggingface has really good servers made for ai.

[SpyC0der77]

@EvanZhouDev What do you think about it?

[SpyC0der77]

Evan

[SpyC0der77]

I will try and make a prototype tomorrow that adds an iMessage app that has interactivity and adds emojis. I will need somebody else to implement the AI because I don't know how to code swift at all.

[SpyC0der77]

I did one step of making the app: making the server to generate the images. https://huggingface.co/spaces/SpyC0der77/Genmoji

[SpyC0der77]

@EvanZhouDev what do you think?

[SpyC0der77]

@kingbranston here is where the processing is: https://huggingface.co/spaces/SpyC0der77/Genmoji

[kingbranston]

Processing side looks good, Image produced looked very high quality but render time was slow - 70 ish seconds. I'm guessing this is because of Huggingface hardware limits.
I think this has real potential but I don't have experience coding swift so might need to do some research to see how hard it is going to be.

[SpyC0der77]

I am trying to make it in swift. I am mainly just using ChatGPT to code it. We could probably get a gpu grant from the community for the hugging face processing

[kingbranston]

Do you have a discord or something that we can use to test and make this ?

[SpyC0der77]

I don't have discord. I can make a branch in my fork of this repo for the code

[oddlyspaced]

Love the idea for developing an app. Can we possibly build this in a cross platform manner so non iPhone users can make the use for same? I also have trained the model with google emoji styles. So we can ideally unify everything and present a customisable app.

[SpyC0der77]

yeah, i don't know how to make an app in either language for either device

If you have experience with html, css stuff or have tried out web development using React, you can give React Native a try to build apps. At least the UI part. We can collaborate on different functionalities and make it a collective open source project 🙌🏾

[SpyC0der77]

Heck yeah, I have a lot of experience with html css and js. Not react though. I see you have experience with react native. I am mainly gonna work on the processing backend, improving the speed of the generations.

[SpyC0der77]

I just found an article in the Swift documentation that has pretty much exactly what we need: link

Can u make an app for android????

[SpyC0der77]

Yeah

[sagarmdev]

I have already made an imessage app but with different model

[SpyC0der77]

Care to share @sagarmdev

[SpyC0der77]

[sagarmdev]

@SpyC0der77
i need to host this model on replicate first then i can share something
do you know how to do that?
