Huge "foundation models" are turbo-charging AI progress

#artificialintelligence

We had Midjourney make three versions of each image: one with "collage" added to the prompt, one with "Salvador Dali" and one with "Pieter Bruegel the Elder". You can change the illustration style with the toggle below, the code behind which was co-authored by GitHub Copilot, another AI tool. We fed Openai's GPT-3 model the opening lines of some famous novels and asked it to continue the story. Here is what it came up with. "Two (selected religion) walked into a...", % of


How smarter AI will change creativity

#artificialintelligence

Picture a computer that could finish your sentences, using a better turn of phrase; or use a snatch of melody to compose music that sounds as if you wrote it (though you never would have); or solve a problem by creating hundreds of lines of computer code--leaving you to focus on something even harder. In a sense, that computer is merely the descendant of the power looms and steam engines that hastened the Industrial Revolution. But it also belongs to a new class of machine, because it grasps the symbols in language, music and programming and uses them in ways that seem creative. Your browser does not support the audio element. The "foundation models" that can do these things represent a breakthrough in artificial intelligence, or ai.


La veille de la cybersécurité

#artificialintelligence

To the average person, it must seem as if the field of artificial intelligence is making immense progress. According to the press releases, and some of the more gushing media accounts, OpenAI's DALL-E 2 can seemingly create spectacular images from any text; another OpenAI system called GPT-3 can talk about just about anything; and a system called Gato that was released in May by DeepMind, a division of Alphabet, seemingly worked well on every task the company could throw at it. One of DeepMind's high-level executives even went so far as to brag that in the quest for artificial general intelligence (AGI), AI that has the flexibility and resourcefulness of human intelligence, "The Game is Over!" And Elon Musk said recently that he would be surprised if we didn't have artificial general intelligence by 2029. Machines may someday be as smart as people, and perhaps even smarter, but the game is far from over.


Trends in AI -- June 2022

If you are building an AI-related product or service, we invite you to consider becoming an AI sponsor. At Towards AI, we help scale AI and technology startups. Let us help you unleash your technology to the masses. As we go into June, the AI world doesn't stop and once again the pace of new stories and research was high. The ACL conference was held in the past month in Dublin, being one of the first major conferences to go back in person, which certainly feels like another step forward into normalcy.


Wild Camera Designs Created by Artificial Intelligence

#artificialintelligence

These cameras do not exist. As real as they might appear, they were created using an artificial intelligence system called DALL-E 2, which can make realistic images based only on text descriptions. These strange and insane-looking cameras were created using DALL-E 2, an artificial intelligence program created by OpenAI. The system was announced earlier this year and can create photo-realistic images based only on a brief description and allows a person to easily edit the image with simple tools. Not only can it create photos and images entirely from scratch, but it can also modify existing images.


Dall-E 2: What exactly is 'AI-generated art'? How does it work? Will it replace human visual artists?

The Guardian

Josh, I've been hearing a lot about'AI-generated art' and seeing a whole lot of truly insane-looking memes. What's going on, are the machines picking up paintbrushes now? What you're seeing are neural networks (algorithms that supposedly mimic how our neurons signal each other) trained to generate images from text. So, like, you plug'Kermit the Frog in Blade Runner' into a computer and it spits out pictures of … that? Sure, you can create all the Kermit images you want.


Artificial Intelligence Caught Writing Its Own Creepy Language By Researchers

#artificialintelligence

Something creepy recently happened in the world of technology after an artificial intelligence programme reached the pinnacle of independence by writing its own language. Nobody else is capable of fully understanding the language coined by OpenAI's "DALLE-E2" artificial intelligence system. Its job is to generate realistic and/or artistic images based on text descriptions entered by users. OpenAI claims that DALLE-E2 is groundbreaking, for it effectively "learned the relationship between images and the text used to describe them." While all this sounds riveting, DALLE-E2 is on a secret mission.


Let's Force an AI to Design Us Some Cars

#artificialintelligence

Khyzyl Saleem is an incredible automotive designer, responsible for some of the most out-there looks ever to sit on four wheels. He also has a fairly distinctive style, combining wide bodies with slammed suspensions, track-day aero, neon lighting, and lots of vents and intakes. How will DALL-E apply that aesthetic to the humble 944? DALL-E took a long time to ponder on this one, but it was worth every second. I swear I've seen that barcode-looking license plate before on a particularly cyberpunk Khyzyl design, though I can't quite recall which one.

A good alternative to DALL·E 2 that you can use while waiting

#artificialintelligence

DALLE-2 can produce photorealistic graphics from natural language descriptions. While such models are adaptable, they fail to comprehend some notions, such as object relationships. This article proposes a newest AI art generating method. A alternative diffusion model can generate images conditioned on your sentence descriptions.
