Can AI help us express what we're afraid to say? 🤫 → 🗣️ Introducing YapWrap, an AI-powered scarf that is your emotional translator. I developed this at the @medialab Labracadabra hackathon with @anku__rani, Shun-Ying (Brian) Chen, & @KuangQuinc18451. #AI #AIart

Seeing a lot of folks use VR white boxing videos or old video game footage to add whole layer of textures or style transfer from video-to-video generative AI. This one below using @aframevr. Agree with @dmarcos that it’s only a matter of time before it comes to real-time 3D.
Blocked a 3D scene with white boxes and restyled with AI in less than 10mins This is video to video at the moment but real time feels around the corner @aframevr

I’ve just signed on to @Mozilla’s urgent call for @Meta to maintain @CrowdTangle, which is a crucial real-time transparency tool used to monitor the spread of political disinformation and hate speech. Join me: share.mozilla.org/870080098t

As everyone in the AI field is using the term "open source" for models that aren't so, this taxonomy of LLM and their adherence to the "open source" paradigm at different levels is very much needed: arxiv.org/pdf/2405.08597 @fbk_mt #pickoftheweek

Gen AI is poised to transform many fields, sparking major debates over its risks & calls for tighter regulation. ❗Over-regulation could be catastrophic to open-source Gen AI. 🚀 Our paper (arxiv.org/pdf/2405.08597) argues the benefits of open-source Gen AI outweigh its risks. 🧵

New Paper 🎉: arxiv.org/pdf/2401.01814.pdf Can language models relearn removed concepts? Model editing aims to eliminate unwanted concepts through neuron pruning. LLMs demonstrate a remarkable capacity to adapt and regain conceptual representations which have been removed 🧵1/8

Apple Vision Pro! apps in the room with you, environments immerse you fully. Use without controllers. Hands and eyes, subtle gestures, voice. Not isolated. Stay connected to those around you. Spatial audio in FaceTime.

🧠 AI experiment comparing #ControlNet and #Gen1. Video goes in ➡ Minecraft comes out. Results are wild, and it's only a matter of time till this tech runs at 60fps. Then it'll transform 3D and AR. How soon until we're channel surfing realities layered on top of the world?🧵
