MindBlowing AI Tools Everyone talking about

– Google will require Android apps to include a feature allowing users to report offensive AI-generated content. The moderation rules for these apps have been updated as well. This initiative aims to improve user safety and allow for better monitoring of AI-generated content.

What The World Has Researched & Innovated

– Researchers from Google and the University of Toronto have developed a zero-shot agent, built on PaLM2, a large language model. This agent can independently learn and enhance its control over a computer without expert guidance. The researchers also propose a systematic thought management technique to help the agent learn from failures and advance in more difficult tasks.

– A quantitative framework called LoftQ has been introduced to pre-trained language models. LoftQ incorporates low-rank approximation and quantization to optimize computational and memory requirements, aiming to improve the efficiency of these models.

– Generative AI systems are adapting to different formats like audio and video. Google DeepMind proposes a framework for assessing the social and ethical hazards associated with these systems. The framework evaluates risks at three levels: system capabilities, human interactions, and broader systemic impacts. DeepMind highlights the importance of considering context to minimize risks.

– Researchers have introduced table-tuning, a method to improve language models’ understanding and manipulation of tables. Table-GPT models generated through table-tuning exhibit enhanced capabilities in table-based tasks and retain high generalizability.

– NEFTune, a method proposed by researchers, enhances model performance on instruction-based tasks by adding random noise to the embedding vectors of training data. This approach significantly improves the performance of language models on conversational tasks without requiring additional computational resources or data.

– Researchers have introduced the Universal Visual Decomposer (UVD), which helps decompose long-horizon manipulation tasks using pre-trained visual representations. UVD improves robotic policy learning and generalization, outperforming baseline methods in imitation and reinforcement learning settings.
