Training new artists / genres on colab

[RegattaBurrata]

Is it possible to train on new artists or genres on colab? For example, if I'd like to create samples in the style of an artist that wasn't in the original dataset and therefore has no artist id tag.

We added more instructions on how to fine-tune to new styles or train from scratch, but they are from command line.

@heewooj thanks for the update. Do you know if there's a simple way to run command line scripts from a colab runtime?

I'm also interested on training new layers on Colab, since p100 are kinda off my league outside Colab Pro.

Well, I guess you could do something like:

import os os.popen('command you want)

or just preface commands with ! or %%shell

But, then again, these are just guesses. I'm sure trying them out myself later this week.

ps: you need to mount your drive in order to load new training data. SMarioMan has an open PR solving this: https://github.com/openai/jukebox/pull/72/commits
