Hi all, I found this forum, and I'm hoping there are likeminded educators that can help me get unstuck.
As a side gig, I teach a computer science elective for 12th graders. I have a day job as a code monkey, so I know a lot about programming, very proficient in C++, pretty capable in Python and Perl -- but I am a newb when DeepLearning is concerned.
In 2022 I found a StyleGAN2 tutorial jupyter notebook online, and reshaped it into a fabulous classroom exercise (here it is). But then Google colab stopped supporting tensorflow 1.x, so that became useless.
Then I found on github somebody who upgraded StyleGAN2 to tensorflow v2, and I was able to adapt part of my notebook (but not the most fun part of using 'projector' for students to 'Find your Face' and manipulate it with Style vectors). I was able to use that in 2023 (here it is), but now that is sadly inoperable, there's some kind of NVCC compiler error I don't understand.
Last summer I was looking around again, and found an adaptation to ada/pytorch, and started to get that working, but now that is also not working (some error with jax importing near the beginning)
So I'm at the end of my rope trying to make this work. I'm sure for somebody experienced with deep learning frameworks it would be child's play. If anybody here in the forum is interested to check out my problematic notebooks and lend a hand or give me advice, it'd be greatly appreciated (and since the notebooks are posted on github, I'm happy for any teachers or students anywhere to use the resources!)
