​​Generative Agents: Interactive Simulacra of Human Behavior

Imagine a world where computational software agents can simulate believable human behavior, empowering a wide range of interactive applications from immersive environments to rehearsal spaces for interpersonal communication and prototyping tools. This paper introduces "generative agents," a groundbreaking concept where agents perform daily routines, engage in creative activities, form opinions, interact with others, and remember and reflect on their experiences as they plan their next day.

To bring generative agents to life, the authors propose an innovative architecture that extends a large language model, allowing agents to store and reflect on their experiences using natural language and dynamically plan their behavior. They showcase the potential of generative agents in an interactive sandbox environment inspired by The Sims, where users can engage with a small town of 25 agents using natural language. The evaluation highlights the agents' ability to autonomously create and navigate complex social situations, producing believable individual and emergent social behaviors. This groundbreaking work demonstrates the critical contributions of observation, planning, and reflection components in agent architecture, laying the foundation for more realistic simulations of human behavior and unlocking exciting possibilities across various applications.

Stability AI just released initial set of StableLM-alpha models, with 3B and 7B parameters. 15B and 30B models are on the way.

Base models are released under CC BY-SA-4.0.

StableLM-Alpha models are trained on the new dataset that build on The Pile, which contains 1.5 trillion tokens, roughly 3x the size of The Pile. These models will be trained on up to 1.5 trillion tokens. The context length for these models is 4096 tokens.

As a proof-of-concept, we also fine-tuned the model with Stanford Alpaca's procedure using a combination of five recent datasets for conversational agents: Stanford's Alpaca, Nomic-AI's gpt4all, RyokoAI's ShareGPT52K datasets, Databricks labs' Dolly, and Anthropic's HH. We will be releasing these models as StableLM-Tuned-Alpha.

Paper Review: Segment Anything

- 99% of masks are automatic, i.e. w/o labels;
- Main image encoder model is huge;
- To produce masks you need a prompt or a somewhat accurate bbox (partial bbox fails miserably);
- Trained on 128 / 256 GPUs;
- Most likely - useful a large scale data annotation tool;
- Not sure that it can be used in production as is, also license for the dataset is research only, the model is Apache 2.0

https://andlukyane.com//blog/paper-review-sam

Unless you have a very specific project (i.e. segment just one object type and you have some priors), this can serve as a decent pre-annotation tool.

This is nice, but probably it can offset 10-20% of CV annotation costs.

​​BloombergGPT: A Large Language Model for Finance

The realm of financial technology involves a wide range of NLP applications, such as sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, and question answering. Although Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated effectiveness in various tasks, no LLM specialized for the financial domain has been reported so far. This work introduces BloombergGPT, a 50-billion-parameter language model trained on an extensive range of financial data. The researchers have created a massive 363-billion-token dataset using Bloomberg's data sources, supplemented with 345 billion tokens from general-purpose datasets, potentially creating the largest domain-specific dataset to date.

BloombergGPT has been validated on standard LLM benchmarks, open financial benchmarks, and a suite of internal benchmarks that accurately reflect its intended usage. The mixed dataset training results in a model that significantly outperforms existing models on financial tasks without sacrificing performance on general LLM benchmarks. The paper also discusses modeling choices, training processes, and evaluation methodology. As a next step, the researchers plan to release training logs (Chronicles) detailing their experience in training BloombergGPT.

An AST-based Code Change Representation and its Performance in Just-in-time Vulnerability Prediction

Authors propose a novel way of representing changes in source code, the Code Change Tree, a form that is designed to keep only the differences between two abstract syntax trees of Java source code. The appoach was evaluated in predicting if a code change introduces a vulnerability against multiple representation types and evaluated them by a number of machine learning models as a baseline. The evaluation is done on a novel dataset VIC.

RQ. 1 Can a vulnerability introducing database generated from a vulnerability fixing commit database be used for vulnerability prediction?
RQ. 2 How effective are Code Change Trees in representing source code changes?
RQ. 3 Are source code metrics sufficient to represent code changes?

​​ReBotNet: Fast Real-time Video Enhancement

The authors introduce a novel Recurrent Bottleneck Mixer Network (ReBotNet) method, designed for real-time video enhancement in practical scenarios, such as live video calls and video streams. ReBotNet employs a dual-branch framework, where one branch focuses on learning spatio-temporal features, and the other aims to enhance temporal consistency. A common decoder combines the features from both branches to generate the improved frame. This method incorporates a recurrent training approach that utilizes predictions from previous frames for more efficient enhancement and superior temporal consistency.

To assess ReBotNet, the authors use two new datasets that simulate real-world situations and show that their technique surpasses existing methods in terms of reduced computations, decreased memory requirements, and quicker inference times.

​​DINOv2: Learning Robust Visual Features without Supervision

Get ready for a game-changer in computer vision! Building on the groundbreaking achievements in natural language processing, foundation models are revolutionizing the way we use images in various systems. By generating all-purpose visual features that excel across diverse image distributions and tasks without finetuning, these models are set to redefine the field.

The researchers behind this work have combined cutting-edge techniques to scale pretraining in terms of data and model size, turbocharging the training process like never before. They've devised an ingenious automatic pipeline to create a rich, diverse, and curated image dataset, setting a new standard in the self-supervised literature. To top it off, they've trained a colossal ViT model with a staggering 1 billion parameters and distilled it into a series of smaller, ultra-efficient models. These models outshine the best available all-purpose features, OpenCLIP, on most benchmarks at both image and pixel levels.

​​InceptionNeXt: When Inception Meets ConvNeXt

Large-kernel convolutions, such as those employed in ConvNeXt, can improve model performance but often come at the cost of efficiency due to high memory access costs. Although reducing kernel size may increase speed, it often leads to significant performance degradation.

To address this issue, the authors propose InceptionNeXt, which decomposes large-kernel depthwise convolution into four parallel branches along the channel dimension. This new Inception depthwise convolution results in networks with high throughputs and competitive performance. For example, InceptionNeXt-T achieves 1.6x higher training throughputs than ConvNeX-T and a 0.2% top-1 accuracy improvement on ImageNet-1K. InceptionNeXt has the potential to serve as an economical baseline for future architecture design, helping to reduce carbon footprint.

Adobe does image generation

> Adobe announced a beta of Firefly, a generative ML tool for making images, Unlike MidJourney or Stable Diffusion (or Bing) this looks a lot more like an actual product - instead of typing 50-100 works into a box trying to refine your results, there are GUI tools and settings. It also has a much more clearly-defined set of training data - note that Getty is suing Stable Diffusion for training on its images without permission. In more normal times this would be a huge story - now it’s only half way down the page.

https://firefly.adobe.com/?ref=lore.ghost.io

This really looks like a product. Also numerous tags and knobs are probably sourced from internal Adobe data.

Lots of networks here - upscaling, cycle-gan like domain transfers, inpainting, editing, plain generation, etc

I understand that their demos are probably cherry picked af, but proper product work is evident. Also probably this shows the real niche these tools are meant to occupy. Not the "AGI".

Also evident that the data requirements and scale to pull this off are huge.
