Elon Musk wants to start his own AI video game studio

4 décembre 2024 / noflux

Mayor Rahm Emanuel Makes Announcement On Express Train Service To O’Hare Airport

“It’s unclear what Musk knows about how video games are developed or how a studio is run. Though that hasn’t prevented him from sharing his opinions on the field in the past, like when crafted the worst Elden Ring build of all time and celebrated grinding his way to what some believe is a dubious top ranking in Diablo 4. Maybe he’s still stinging from being heckled at a major Valorant tournament. In any case, it appears those of us with a stake in this medium who already abandoned X for greener pastures will still need to keep an eye on Musk as he continues to cozy up to United States President-elect Donald Trump who has a long history of favoring the business of his allies — and turning their enemies into his own.”

“In this example, Amazon Ads used Amazon Nova Reel to create a video advertisement for a fictional boxed pasta brand. In the whimsical “Pasta City,” buildings are sculpted from towering tubes of cannelloni noodles, the neighborhood is sprinkled with Italian spice landscaping, and the streets are lined with savory marinara sauce, fusilli noodles, and tender meatballs. The ad is an example of how advertisers can bring their products to life and create high-quality content using Amazon Nova models.”

Google Preps Public Preview of Gemini AI After Postponing In-Person Launch Events

4 décembre 2023 / noflux

“After Google quietly scrapped a set of in-person events to launch Gemini, its biggest artificial intelligence initiative in a decade, the company has planned a virtual preview of the new AI as soon as this week, said a person with knowledge of the situation. By giving journalists and software developers a first look at some of the technology’s capabilities, Google could relieve some pressure from investors to prove it can catch up to ChatGPT creator OpenAI. Google representatives for weeks have been giving private demonstrations of the technology to business partners but they have said that cloud customers wouldn’t get access to the primary version of Gemini until next year.”

CO2 Inference – a Hugging Face Space by sasha

4 décembre 2023 / noflux

We ran a series of experiments to measure the energy efficiency and carbon emissions of different models from the HuggingFace Hub, and to see how different tasks and models compare. We found that multi-purpose, generative models are orders of magnitude more energy-intensive than task-specific systems for a variety of tasks, even for models with a similar number of parameters

AI generated images are biased, showing the world through stereotypes

12 novembre 2023 / noflux

“Artificial intelligence image tools have a tendency to spin up disturbing clichés: Asian women are hypersexual. Africans are primitive. Europeans are worldly. Leaders are men. Prisoners are Black.
These stereotypes don’t reflect the real world; they stem from the data that trains the technology. Grabbed from the internet, these troves can be toxic — rife with pornography, misogyny, violence and bigotry.”

This Tool Could Protect Artists From A.I. Image Generators

“To the human eye, the Glazed image still looks like her work, but the computer-learning model would pick up on something very different. It’s similar to a tool the University of Chicago team previously created to protect photos from facial recognition systems.
When Ms. Ortiz posted her Glazed work online, an image generator trained on those images wouldn’t be able to mimic her work. A prompt with her name would instead lead to images in some hybridized style of her works and Pollock’s.
“We’re taking our consent back,” Ms. Ortiz said. A.I.-generating tools, many of which charge users a fee to generate images, “have data that doesn’t belong to them,” she said. “That data is my artwork, that’s my life. It feels like my identity.”
The team at the University of Chicago admitted that their tool does not guarantee protection and could lead to countermeasures by anyone committed to emulating a particular artist. “We’re pragmatists,” Professor Zhao said. “We recognize the likely long delay before law and regulations and policies catch up. This is to fill that void.””

Spotify’s AI Voice Translation Pilot Means Your Favorite Podcasters Might Be Heard in Your Native Language

26 septembre 2023 / noflux

“This Spotify-developed tool leverages the latest innovations—one of which is OpenAI’s newly released voice generation technology—to match the original speaker’s style, making for a more authentic listening experience that sounds more personal and natural than traditional dubbing. A podcast episode originally recorded in English can now be available in other languages while keeping the speaker’s distinctive speech characteristics. ”
