But the topline figures obscure a fragmented regulatory approach The government wants the UK to provide an agile, adaptive environment for AI developers. Is the existing regulatory framework up to it? Following on from yesterday’s coverage in Computing of Labour Party proposals to manage and regulate AI technology development, the government yesterday set out it’s approach in response to the consultation it published last March. Last years’ white paper focused on an agile, pro-innovation approach to AI regulation. The government made clear that it wanted to regulate with a light touch. A crucial aspect of this light touch regulation was…

#deeplearning #objectdetection #outliers An interview with the authors of “Virtual Outlier Synthesis”. Watch the paper review video here: Outliers are data points that are highly unlikely to be seen in the training distribution, and therefore deep neural networks have troubles when dealing with them. Many approaches to detecting outliers at inference time have been proposed, but most of them show limited success. This paper presents Virtual Outlier Synthesis, which is a method that pairs synthetic outliers, forged in the latent space, with an energy-based regularization of the network at training time. The result is a deep network that can reliably…

It enables the creation of photorealistic videos with synchronized audio and maintains high temporal consistency…

IBM Corp. is partnering with the European Space Agency to create an artificial intelligence system that will keep tabs on climate change and other global issues, such as water scarcity, in real time using space-based data. IBM says the new system, called TerraMind, is the most advanced “Earth observation” model ever conceived, and it’s being made available to researchers through the Hugging Face platform today. The open-source model was trained on TerraMesh, which is the largest set of freely available geospatial data, created by researchers as part of the TerraMind project. IBM says TerraMind is a multimodal model based on…

With its plan for a “European AI continent”, the EU Commission wants to catch up with other AI locations around the world: In terms of cloud infrastructure, Europe is currently equipped with three times fewer data centers than the USA, according to Commission circles. Corresponding capacities should therefore be created throughout Europe. The Commission wants to boost the development of AI in the EU with up to 200 billion euros. Of this, 20 billion euros are to be made available for up to five new “AI Gigafactories”. However, it is unclear how much of this will actually be provided from…

Determining how best to incorporate AI in your reporting can be daunting. For journalists and small newsrooms navigating tight deadlines and limited resources, harnessing AI tools to carry out time consuming tasks can be pivotal. For students developing a foundational skill set for future reporting careers, the technology can’t be ignored. Think of AI tools similarly to how you do common applications like Microsoft Excel or Adobe Photoshop: AI can help free up time, which you can in turn dedicate to more in-depth reporting, and more creative writing, visuals and marketing, among other perks. However, a 2024 survey by the…
