The Generative Artificial Intelligence Pool is being used by the Getty Images

Proceedings of the 13th International Workshop on Getty AI Image Platforms (Part I): The Firefly Model and the Getty Lecture Series

By building its own generative AI image platform, Getty can undercut other companies that want to use its image libraries to train models. Getty is far from the only firm setting up AI image platforms with its licensed data. The Firefly model was trained on the licensed images in Adobe’s Creative Suite and Creative Cloud service.

Getty CEO Craig Peters will be at this year’s Code conference on September 26th and 27th. You can apply here to attend Code in person or go here for virtual tickets.

Generative AI by Getty Images: A Hands-on Look at a Getty-Aid Tool and the Importance of Learning a Graphic Model

I got a hands-on look at Generative AI by Getty Images and got to play around with the tool for a bit. I mainly wanted to see how it generates photos, rather than illustrations, to test out how close to an actual Getty-watermarked picture it can get. The photos look better than expected. Stock photos already have an artificial, soulless quality to them, and I was not surprised that some of the first few images the tool generated also felt… devoid of feeling. This feeling isn’t exclusive to Getty’s generative AI tool; the photos generated by the upcoming DALL-E 3 from OpenAI made me think the same.

In a press release, it was stated that customers will have the right to nonexclusive use of the images using the tool and that new content generated by the tool will not be added into the existing content libraries.

The event that brings together the most influential voices in tech is back for 2023. Code returns with new hosts at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel September 26th–27th. Apply to attend here or grab a virtual ticket.

Many people in the creative community are concerned about copyrighted material being used for large language models and text to image systems. Three artists previously sued Stability AI, Midjourney, and art website DeviantArt for using their art without permission to train its models.

Getty said customers can eventually add their own data to train the model and generate images with their brand style. This feature and other services will be available later this year.

Earlier this year, the stock-photo service provider Getty Images sued Stability AI over what Getty said was the misuse of more than 12 million Getty photos in training Stability’s AI photo-generation tool, Stable Diffusion.

The ethics of training an Artificial Intelligence model on photographers’ images for more than two decades raises questions about how companies will pay the photographers.

There are millions of phones, so you can map the ionosphere

Phone data could reduce GPS errors by 10-20% in some areas, and more in underserved regions, said Ningbo Wang, an atmospheric physicist at the aerospace information Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Wang’s analysis showed that the noise in phone measurements has a standard deviation of around 70 TECU, more than 30 times larger than the measurement noise for traditional monitoring stations.

Modelling the consequences of the Australian megafires for biodiversity using a t-test with denominator degrees of freedom adjusted for random effects. The dataset was divided into two periods, Year 1 and Year 2. To evaluate the effects between years, the dataset was divided into two periods: Year 1 and Year 2. We used the time gaps in survey dates to maximise the data.

US President Joe Biden will meet Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Peru on Saturday, said an official. Biden could use his meeting with Xi to underscore that China needs to change its trade practices, not just threaten retaliation, said Danny Russel, a top State Department official in the Obama administration.

Body casts from Pompeii show who the victims were

Researchers found that Pompeii’s population was genetically diverse, which is a reversal from previous theories. The researchers used the remains of Pompeiians being pulled from their bodies and placed into casts to fill the voids left by their decomposing bodies. They had the opportunity to collect some of these fragments during efforts to restore 86 of the 104 plaster casts.

Atomic nuclei being Smashed together reveal their shapes

admin

Researchers have revealed a new technique toImage the shape of atomic nuclei – by smashing them together with high-energy collisions. Current methods take a long-exposure photo of an atom’s nucleus, which doesn’t capture the subtle variations in how the protons and neutrons arrange themselves. The new method involves collision of nuclei and use of information on debris to determine their shape.

The iMac review is small but worth the upgrade

Apple’s new MacBook Pro M4 with the M4 CPU is as good as any other MacBook Pro you’ve likely laid hands upon, a report said. “If you’re currently running an M3-based MacBook, the cautious answer is almost definitely not,” the report added. It also said that Apple has put a little more thought into upgrading user experience, at least behind the scenes.
