Google?has introduced a new technique that addresses the bottleneck in Visual-Language Model (#VLM) development due to the need for high-quality human-labelled image-caption datasets. The paper proposes combining?#LLM?and image generation models to pretrain text-to-image models with LLM-generated captions. This pretraining enables the generation of synthetic image-text pairs for efficient VLM training. The results show that the VLM trained with synthetic data exhibits comparable image captioning performance and outperforms the baseline by 17% through synthetic dataset augmentation.

Why dissociate music education and the arts from K-12 curriculum? Part 1- My 4-part expanded list of K-12 academic subjects entitled, "Children's musicals are indeed a powerful educational tool that integrate multiple subjects and develops various skills.", is a curriculum outline of skills and contents students must know to get ready for the real world after their school years. I do not understand how curriculum writers could have arrived at a consensus to do away with music and the arts in a systematic way.

Chris understand the importance of quality instruments in achieving musical excellence. But here's the challenge: Band Directors often have specific needs and goals for their programs, while parents and students may lack the knowledge to make informed instrument purchases. So, what's the solution? Building a strong relationship between Band Directors and music stores can ensure the right instruments are chosen for the program's success: ? Quality over price: Band directors seek instruments that produce the desired tone quality, are repairable, and can withstand years of use. ? Director's recommendation: Parents often turn to band directors for advice on instrument purchases, trusting their expertise and guidance. ? Creating a musical community: Band groups are more than just ensembles; they foster a sense of community and shared passion. By fostering connections and trust, band directors can guide parents to the right music stores and instruments that perfectly align with their program's needs. #MusicEducation #BandPrograms #InstrumentSelection #MTE #MeetTheExperts #RVASMallBusinessNetwork First Note Music Consulting | Joan Bowling, DTM
