I want to extract and process the metadata from PNG images and the first line of .safetensors files for LLM’s and LoRA’s. I could spend ages farting around with sed or awk but formats of files are constantly changing. I’d like a faster way to see a summary of training and a few other details when they are available.

    I hate to do this, but AI chatbots are typically pretty good at giving examples for things like this and you can learn from it.

        I definitely use them a lot, but I think “very” is too strong a word. It’s pretty easy to get confident, contradictory information from them. They’re a good place to start and brainstorm, but all the information has to be verified either by running and testing the code, or by finding a human source.

          True. I wouldn’t use them for very complicated stuff. I currently use them for “what is x?” and “how is x different from y?” kinds of question.

          One advantage of using an AI is that it removes a lot of fluff that you get on blogs. However, that can change very soon when our AI overlords figure out monetization.
