2 天之前 · AI tool generates high-quality images faster than state-of-the-art approaches. Researchers fuse the best of two popular methods to create an image generator that uses less energy and can run locally on a laptop or smartphone. March 21, 2025. Read full story →
Explained: Generative AI’s environmental impact - MIT News
2025年1月17日 · Plus, generative AI models have an especially short shelf-life, driven by rising demand for new AI applications. Companies release new models every few weeks, so the energy used to train prior versions goes to waste, Bashir adds. New models often consume more energy for training, since they usually have more parameters than their predecessors.
Aligning AI with human values - MIT News
2025年2月4日 · Senior Audrey Lorvo is researching AI safety, which seeks to ensure increasingly intelligent AI models are reliable and can benefit humanity. The growing field focuses on technical challenges like robustness and AI alignment with human values, as well as societal concerns like transparency and accountability.
3 Questions: Visualizing research in the age of AI
2025年3月6日 · But AI-generated visuals will, in fact, be useful for illustration purposes. If an AI-generated visual is to be submitted to a journal (or, for that matter, be shown in a presentation), I believe the researcher MUST. clearly label if an image was created by an AI model; indicate what model was used; include what prompt was used; and
Introducing the MIT Generative AI Impact Consortium
2025年2月3日 · The MIT Generative AI Impact Consortium is a collaboration between MIT, founding member companies, and researchers across disciplines who aim to develop open-source generative AI solutions, accelerating innovations in education, research, and industry.
AI tool generates high-quality images faster than state-of-the-art ...
2025年3月21日 · A hybrid AI approach known as hybrid autoregressive transformer can generate realistic images with the same or better quality than state-of-the-art diffusion models, but that runs about nine times faster and uses fewer computational resources. The new tool uses an autoregressive model to quickly capture the big picture and then a small diffusion model to …
What do we know about the economics of AI? - MIT News
2024年12月6日 · By contrast, in one paper, “The Simple Macroeconomics of AI,” published in the August issue of Economic Policy, Acemoglu estimates that over the next decade, AI will produce a “modest increase” in GDP between 1.1 to 1.6 percent over the next 10 years, with a roughly 0.05 percent annual gain in productivity.

2023年11月9日 · Before the generative AI boom of the past few years, when people talked about AI, typically they were talking about machine-learning models that can learn to make a prediction based on data. For instance, such models are trained, using millions of examples, to predict whether a certain X-ray shows signs of a tumor or if a particular borrower is ...
Bridging philosophy and AI to explore computing ethics
2025年2月11日 · Skow digs into examining COMPAS, a controversial AI software that uses an algorithm to predict the likelihood that people accused of crimes would go on to re-offend. According to a 2018 ProPublica article, COMPAS was likely to flag Black defendants as future criminals and gave false positives at twice the rate as it did to white defendants.
