8 Best Resources to Learn About Diffusion Models

#artificialintelligence

Text-to-image models ruled the roost in 2022. Models like DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion collectively broke the internet as most social media feeds got filled with images generated by these models. These generative models worked on the revived machine learning algorithm โ€“ diffusion models โ€“ that generate images by adding and then removing noise in an image. An artist or any regular Joe on the internet could head to these models, enter a prompt, and voila! But a machine learning enthusiast might wonder how exactly these diffusion models work.


AI-powered recruitment platform Perfect raises $13M in seed funding - SiliconANGLE

#artificialintelligence

Human resources technology startup Talent Fabric Ltd., which does business as Perfect, announced today that it has closed on a $13 million seed funding round as it looks to take on established platforms such as LinkedIn Corp. in talent recruitment. Today's round was led by Target Global and saw participation from Joule Venture and RTP Global, plus a host of individual investors. Based in Israel, Perfect has created what it says is a generative artificial intelligence-powered platform that helps organizations to fill staff vacancies by mapping the profiling career graphs of millions of technology-focused professionals. The company says it wants to break LinkedIn's monopoly on the talent scouting market, so it relies on generative AI to help companies search for the ideal signals for each available position they're looking to fill. Perfect scans dozens of public data sources, including social media and other databases, searching for the ideal candidates whose skills match what an employer is looking for.


Docker on MacOS is slow and how to fix it ยท Paolo Mainardi

#artificialintelligence

Thanks to the DALLยทE 2, we finally have a very nice graphic representation of the feelings of a Docker container inside a macOS environment, I will try with this article to make this poor container safe to the coast. Docker engine, on macOS and Windows, needs a Linux Kernel; there aren't any exceptions here, you do not see it, but it is there to do all the dirty jobs (HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id Instead, Docker CLI and docker-compose are native binaries for all operating systems. Two things are worth mentioning here regarding Microsoft; the first one is that Windows (and this sometimes can lead to some confusion) natively support Docker to run Windows containers. This implementation has been possible thanks to the joint effort of Microsoft and Docker in 2016 to create a container engine implementing the Docker specification on Windows; kudos to you, MS.


'I am a Machine, With no Soul or Heart': An Interview With Artificial Intelligence - Impakter

'I am a Machine, With no Soul or Heart': An Interview With Artificial Intelligence We asked OpenAI's human-like AI chatbot โ€“ ChatGPT โ€“ a little bit about itself, as well as a panel of profound questions; could delving into the mind of a computer provide insight undiscovered by humans so far?


OpenAI releases Point-E, which is like DALL-E but for 3D modeling

Engadget

OpenAI, the Elon Musk-founded artificial intelligence startup behind popular DALL-E text-to-image generator, announced on Tuesday the release of its newest picture-making machine POINT-E, which can produce 3D point clouds directly from text prompts. Whereas existing systems like Google's DreamFusion typically require multiple hours -- and GPUs -- to generate their images, Point-E only needs one GPU and a minute or two. The CGI effects of modern movie blockbusters, video games, VR and AR, NASA's moon crater mapping missions, Google's heritage site preservation projects, and Meta's vision for the Metaverse all hinge on 3D modeling capabilities. However, creating photorealistic 3D images is still a resource and time consuming process, despite NVIDIA's work to automate object generation and Epic Game's RealityCapture mobile app, which allows anyone with an iOS phone to scan real-world objects as 3D images. Text-to-Image systems like OpenAI's DALL-E 2 and Craiyon, DeepAI, Prisma Lab's Lensa, or HuggingFace's Stable Diffusion, have rapidly gained popularity, notoriety and infamy in recent years. Text-to-3D is an offshoot of that research.


Evisort Enters New Era with Generative AI for Contract Intelligence

#artificialintelligence

Evisort, the no-code contract intelligence platform beloved by legal, procurement and sales operation teams worldwide, is entering a new era with the launch of the industry's first generative artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Evisort's reimagined AI technology provides transparent, understandable contract recommendations to drive decision-making and contract execution. Evisort's generative AI builds upon its existing AI capabilities by creating entirely new content. The Evisort AI Labs' innovation empowers legal and contracting professionals to use Large Language Models to draft, redline and negotiate contracts automatically -- freeing up time for strategic counseling. Evisort AI Labs' technology can also suggest edits that speed re-negotiations on existing complicated contracts.


OpenAI releases Point-E, an AI that generates 3D models โ€ข TechCrunch

#artificialintelligence

The next breakthrough to take the AI world by storm might be 3D model generators. This week, OpenAI open sourced Point-E, a machine learning system that creates a 3D object given a text prompt. According to a paper published alongside the code base, Point-E can produce 3D models in one to two minutes on a single Nvidia V100 GPU. Point-E doesn't create 3D objects in the traditional sense. Rather, it generates point clouds, or discrete sets of data points in space that represent a 3D shape -- hence the cheeky abbreviation.


Is OpenAI's ChatGPT a Threat to Google? - True Interactive

#artificialintelligence

Could a chatbot replace Google Search? That's what a lot of technology watchers are asking since the public release of ChatGPT, a chatbot powered by artificial intelligence. ChatGPT is the product of OpenAI, the company that produced Dall-E, which uses AI to create images. ChatGPT is one of many chatbots designed to respond to queries from people by providing richer, more detailed, and more human-sounding answers than their predecessors. ChatGPT caused a huge stir after OpenAI released a beta version to the public on November 30 so that people would use it and give feedback that will improve the chatbot. It proved to be so slick and so intelligent that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said ChatGPT achieved one million users in less than a week after its public launch.


ChatGPT Has Infiltrated Twitter Replies

#artificialintelligence

As Twitter continues to circle the drain fueled by chaos from CEO Elon Musk, one user noticed something peculiar about tweet replies. After digging a little deeper, user Pieter Levels--who goes by @levelsio on the platform--found that some users are apparently now using the popular text-generating AI ChatGPT to reply to tweets. It all started with a tweet at 8:56 a.m., where Levels jokes about his nomadic friends using a typical two line meme format. Seven minutes later, Levels received a reply from an account with a display name Pragyan Tripathi, who calls himself a developer, educator, and founder, while boasting over ten years in the tech industry. It's interesting to see how the lifestyles of nomadic individuals have changed over time.


ChatGPT can be used to generate malicious code, finds research

#artificialintelligence

OpenAI's ChatGPT, the large language model (LLM)-based artificial intelligence (AI) text generator, can be seemingly used to generate code for malicious tasks, a research note by cyber security firm Check Point observed on Tuesday. Researchers at Check Point used ChatGPT and Codex, a fellow OpenAI natural language to code generator, used standard English instructions to create code that can be used to launch spear phishing attacks.
