Machine learning

A single step allows AI to produce high-grade images at a speed 30 times quicker.

In the age of artificial intelligence, computers can generate "art" using diffusion models. However, this often involves a complex, time-consuming process requiring multiple iterations for the algorithm to perfect the image. MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) researchers have now launched a new technique that simplifies this process into a single step using…

A novel approach employs collective public input to assist in educating robots.

Reinforcement learning, which involves teaching an AI agent a new task using a trial and error methodology, often requires the assistance of a human expert to create and modify the reward function. However, this can be time-consuming, inefficient and difficult to upscale, particularly when the task is highly complex and involves several stages. In response…
