American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SeamlessM4T builds on advancements we and others have made over the years in the quest to create a universal translator. Compared to approaches using separate models, SeamlessM4T\u2019s single system approach reduces errors and delays, increasing the efficiency and quality of the translation process\u201d<\/em>, the company announced in a press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has also decided to publicly release the AI model under a research license as well as releasing the metadata SeamlessAlign, which has over 270,000 hours of mined speech and text alignments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Describing the thought process of making the software public, the company stated, \u201cWe\u2019re publicly releasing SeamlessM4T under a research license to allow researchers and developers to build on this work.\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n","post_title":"Meta Introduces SeamlessM4T: An AI Model For Translating Speech And Texts In 100 Languages","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"meta-introduces-seamlessm4t-an-ai-model-for-translating-speech-and-texts-in-100-languages","to_ping":"","pinged":"\nhttps:\/\/about.fb.com\/news\/2023\/08\/seamlessm4t-ai-translation-model\/","post_modified":"2023-08-31 23:11:07","post_modified_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:11:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13155","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13030,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-10 23:19:43","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-10 13:19:43","post_content":"\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Technology Innovation Institute (TII), a government-funded research establishment based in Abu Dhabi, has recently revealed the latest iteration of their large language model (LLM) series, called Falcon 180B. This new and improved AI model can outperform most open-source LLMs and even rivals the LLMs made by industry giants such as Google and Meta, according to various reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TII has released the Falcon 180B on Hugging Face and has quickly reached the top of its performance list for LLMs. According to the company\u2019s blog post, this model has been trained on 3.5 million tokens and has 180 billion parameters, thus making it one of the most powerful open-source language models out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis model performs exceptionally well in various tasks like reasoning, coding, proficiency, and knowledge tests, even beating competitors like Meta's LLaMA 2. Among closed source models, it ranks just behind OpenAI's GPT 4, and performs on par with Google's PaLM 2 Large, which powers Bard, despite being half the size of the model.<\/em>\u201d, the company stated in their blog post.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Falcon 180B is currently available on Hugging Face for both commercial and research use. The model is compatible with many languages including English, German, Spanish, French, and Italian.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Introducing Falcon LLM: A New Open Source Large Language Model Set To Rival Google And Meta","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"introducing-falcon-llm-a-new-open-source-large-language-model-set-to-rival-google-and-meta","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-15 22:09:05","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-15 12:09:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13416","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13286,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-09-09 00:28:26","post_date_gmt":"2023-09-08 14:28:26","post_content":"\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

American tech company Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has recently launched an AI model for translating speech and texts called SeamlessM4T. This model can reportedly translate speech to speech, speech to text, text to speech, and text to text in nearly 100 languages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Meta, SeamlessM4T is the world\u2019s \u201cfirst all-in-one multimodal and multilingual AI translation model\u201d. This is in keeping with the company\u2019s effort to make AI tools with multilingual capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the company\u2019s admission, the technology is not \u201cfoolproof\u201d. However, Google hopes the technology can evolve to be more functional and efficient.

Several world-renowned novelists have recently banded together and filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, the creator of the hugely successful ChatGPT. The Lawsuit claims that the company used the works of these writers for training ChatGPT without \u201cpermission or consideration\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ChatGPT is an open-source, AI-powered chatbot that can generate texts and conversations based on text prompts. The software uses large language models (LLM) that utilize vast amounts of data such as songs, movies, books, newsletters, blog articles, etc. This has led to accusations regarding copyright and whether the data has been legally acquired. As a result, OpenAI has faced several lawsuits in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in the latest incident, several of America\u2019s top writers have decided to file a lawsuit against the company. The litigations are being led by the \u201cAuthors Guild\u201d, which is America\u2019s largest organization for writers on legal issues and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Washington Post<\/a>, \u201cBlockbuster writers such as George R.R. Martin, Jodi Picoult, Jonathan Franzen, and George Saunders have signed on to the lawsuit. This latest lawsuit alleges OpenAI copied the authors\u2019 work \u201cwholesale, without permission or consideration\u201d and used it to train their \u201clarge language models.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the company\u2019s admission, the technology is not \u201cfoolproof\u201d. However, Google hopes the technology can evolve to be more functional and efficient. SynthID is currently in a beta launch.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Google DeepMind Is Testing SynthID: A Watermark Tool For Identifying AI-generated Images","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"google-deepmind-is-testing-synthid-a-watermark-tool-for-identifying-ai-generated-images","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-09 00:28:43","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-08 14:28:43","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13286","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

Several world-renowned novelists have recently banded together and filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, the creator of the hugely successful ChatGPT. The Lawsuit claims that the company used the works of these writers for training ChatGPT without \u201cpermission or consideration\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ChatGPT is an open-source, AI-powered chatbot that can generate texts and conversations based on text prompts. The software uses large language models (LLM) that utilize vast amounts of data such as songs, movies, books, newsletters, blog articles, etc. This has led to accusations regarding copyright and whether the data has been legally acquired. As a result, OpenAI has faced several lawsuits in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in the latest incident, several of America\u2019s top writers have decided to file a lawsuit against the company. The litigations are being led by the \u201cAuthors Guild\u201d, which is America\u2019s largest organization for writers on legal issues and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Washington Post<\/a>, \u201cBlockbuster writers such as George R.R. Martin, Jodi Picoult, Jonathan Franzen, and George Saunders have signed on to the lawsuit. This latest lawsuit alleges OpenAI copied the authors\u2019 work \u201cwholesale, without permission or consideration\u201d and used it to train their \u201clarge language models.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lawsuit is demanding compensation for the damages done to the writers by this \u201cunauthorized use\u201d.<\/p>\n","post_title":"OpenAI Is Being Sued By The Authors Guild Of America: Several Renowned Writers Involved In The Lawsuit.","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"openai-is-being-sued-by-the-authors-guild-of-america-several-renowned-writers-involved-in-the-lawsuit","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-28 22:57:13","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-28 12:57:13","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13622","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13531,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-09-28 22:54:55","post_date_gmt":"2023-09-28 12:54:55","post_content":"\n

Google DeepMind, the subsidiary of Google dedicated to researching artificial intelligence (AI), has recently announced a new tool in the field of genetics. Designated AlphaMissence, this new AI model is capable of cataloging 71 million possible \u201cmissense mutations\" in humans to help in the identification of certain diseases. Missense mutations are alterations in a person's DNA that occur randomly and have been implicated in several human diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToday, we\u2019re releasing a catalog of \u2018missense\u2019 mutations where researchers can learn more about what effect they may have.\u201d<\/em>, said a blog release by Google DeepMind. \u201cThe AlphaMissense catalog was developed using AlphaMissense, our new AI model which classifies missense variants.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

DeepMind claims that the AI program can accurately predict whether a particular mutation will be harmful to a person or not, which will, in turn, \u201caccelerate research across fields from molecular biology to clinical and statistical genetics\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts in the field of genetics have pointed out the potential of such a catalog in combating harmful genetic disorders. Writing for Science.org, Dr Jun Cheng and others have noted that AlphaMissense performs better than current \u201cvariant effect predictor\u201d programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AlphaMissense catalog is currently available online for free.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Google DeepMind Announces AlphaMissence: An AI Model Designed To Catalog Genetic Mutations And Identify Disease.","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"google-deepmind-announces-alphamissence-an-ai-model-designed-to-catalog-genetic-mutations-and-identify-disease","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-28 22:56:56","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-28 12:56:56","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13531","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13416,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-09-15 22:08:49","post_date_gmt":"2023-09-15 12:08:49","post_content":"\n

The Technology Innovation Institute (TII), a government-funded research establishment based in Abu Dhabi, has recently revealed the latest iteration of their large language model (LLM) series, called Falcon 180B.

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several world-renowned novelists have recently banded together and filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, the creator of the hugely successful ChatGPT. The Lawsuit claims that the company used the works of these writers for training ChatGPT without \u201cpermission or consideration\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ChatGPT is an open-source, AI-powered chatbot that can generate texts and conversations based on text prompts. The software uses large language models (LLM) that utilize vast amounts of data such as songs, movies, books, newsletters, blog articles, etc. This has led to accusations regarding copyright and whether the data has been legally acquired. As a result, OpenAI has faced several lawsuits in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in the latest incident, several of America\u2019s top writers have decided to file a lawsuit against the company. The litigations are being led by the \u201cAuthors Guild\u201d, which is America\u2019s largest organization for writers on legal issues and copyright protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Washington Post<\/a>, \u201cBlockbuster writers such as George R.R. Martin, Jodi Picoult, Jonathan Franzen, and George Saunders have signed on to the lawsuit. This latest lawsuit alleges OpenAI copied the authors\u2019 work \u201cwholesale, without permission or consideration\u201d and used it to train their \u201clarge language models.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the company\u2019s admission, the technology is not \u201cfoolproof\u201d. However, Google hopes the technology can evolve to be more functional and efficient. SynthID is currently in a beta launch.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Google DeepMind Is Testing SynthID: A Watermark Tool For Identifying AI-generated Images","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"google-deepmind-is-testing-synthid-a-watermark-tool-for-identifying-ai-generated-images","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-09 00:28:43","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-08 14:28:43","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13286","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the company\u2019s admission, the technology is not \u201cfoolproof\u201d. However, Google hopes the technology can evolve to be more functional and efficient. SynthID is currently in a beta launch.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Google DeepMind Is Testing SynthID: A Watermark Tool For Identifying AI-generated Images","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"google-deepmind-is-testing-synthid-a-watermark-tool-for-identifying-ai-generated-images","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-09 00:28:43","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-08 14:28:43","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=13286","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":13155,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2023-08-31 23:10:52","post_date_gmt":"2023-08-31 13:10:52","post_content":"\n

Google DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, is testing a new tool for identifying AI-generated images. This is the latest endeavor from the company in a bid to regulate generative AI and to prevent the spread of misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a blog released on the company\u2019s website<\/a>, DeepMind states, \u201cToday, in partnership with Google Cloud, we\u2019re launching a beta version of SynthID, a tool for watermarking and identifying AI-generated images..<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology works by embedding a digital watermark to the pixels of the images. Unlike traditional watermarks, these digital counterparts will be invisible to the naked eye but \u201cdetectable for identification\u201d, the company claims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the significant applications of generative AI tools is to create highly detailed, realistic images that are hard to distinguish as fake. This has led to concerns in some sectors about the potential spread of misinformation on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the issue of information authenticity, the company states, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cWhile generative AI can unlock huge creative potential, it also presents new risks, like enabling creators to spread false information \u2014 both intentionally or unintentionally.\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dell Technologies and NVIDIA, two leading tech companies from America, have launched a joint initiative to help businesses and startups build on-premise AI models. This venture comes after the rapid development of generative AI technologies, as many companies seek to use them to enhance their productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDell Technologies and NVIDIA announce a joint initiative to make it easier for businesses to build and use generative AI models on-premises to quickly and securely deliver better customer service, market intelligence, enterprise search, and a range of other capabilities\u201d,<\/em> said NVIDIA in a press release<\/a> on their website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project Helix offers full-stack solutions and ready-made tools using the combined infrastructure and software from Dell and NVIDIA. The project promises to support businesses through developing generative AI, from modelling and training to deployment and management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to NVIDIA, this will allow enterprises to use their proprietary data for easy and customizable generative AI. \u201cProject Helix gives enterprises purpose-built AI models to more quickly and securely gain value from the immense amounts of data underused today,\u201d<\/em> said Jeff Clarke<\/a>, vice chairman and co-chief operating officer, of Dell Technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response to the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence, American President Joe Biden announced new guidelines for the safe development of AI technology.\u00a0In a press release<\/a> from the White House, President Biden revealed that 7 of the leading companies in Artificial Intelligence have committed to this guideline for safe AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A total of 8 measures have been included in this guideline. This includes watermarking AI content and using independent experts to test the safety limits of a new AI technology. Among the companies to agree on these measures are Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and OpenAI - all of which are industry leaders in AI and based in the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking on the potential risk<\/a> such technology poses, President Biden said, \u201cWe must be clear-eyed and vigilant about the threats emerging technologies can pose,\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the commitment to the guideline is voluntary and not legally binding, the president believes this to be an integral step in ensuring cyber security. \u201cThese commitments are a promising step, but we have a lot more work to do together.\u201d<\/em>, said President Biden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This agreement is seen as a necessary first step in implementing proper regulations for AI development worldwide.\u00a0<\/p>\n","post_title":"White House Announces AI Safety Guidelines; Leading Tech Companies Pledge Their Commitment","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"white-house-announces-ai-safety-guidelines-leading-tech-companies-pledge-their-commitment","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-07-27 16:28:29","post_modified_gmt":"2023-07-27 06:28:29","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=12737","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};
