The creative future of generative AI - MIT News
WEBJan 2, 2024 — For creative professionals, AI poses a unique set of challenges and opportunities — particularly generative AI, the use of algorithms to transform vast amounts of data into new content. The future of generative AI and its impact on art and design was the subject of a sold-out panel discussion on Oct. 26 at the MIT Bartos Theater. It was …
Explained: Generative AI | MIT News | Massachusetts Institute of …
WEBNov 9, 2023 — Generative AI can be thought of as a machine-learning model that is trained to create new data, rather than making a prediction about a specific dataset. A generative AI system is one that learns to generate more objects that look like the data it was trained on. “When it comes to the actual machinery underlying generative AI and other types ...
MIT researchers introduce generative AI for databases
WEBJul 8, 2024 — Researchers from MIT and elsewhere developed an easy-to-use tool that enables someone to perform complicated statistical analyses on tabular data using just a few keystrokes. Their method combines probabilistic AI models with the programming language SQL to provide faster and more accurate results than other methods.
MIT researchers advance automated interpretability in AI models
WEBJul 23, 2024 — They developed “MAIA” (Multimodal Automated Interpretability Agent), a system that automates a variety of neural network interpretability tasks using a vision-language model backbone equipped with tools for experimenting on other AI systems. “Our goal is to create an AI researcher that can conduct interpretability experiments …

AI that can learn the patterns of human language - MIT News
WEBAug 30, 2022 — Researchers from MIT and elsewhere developed a machine-learning model that can automatically learn the rules and patterns of human languages on its own, and also learn some inductive biases that are applicable across many languages. This work could pave the way for AI systems that could automatically learn a model from a collection of ...
If art is how we express our humanity, where does AI fit in?
WEBJun 15, 2023 — In terms of generative AI’s effect on the media ecosystem, with the ability to produce synthetic media at scale, the risk of AI-generated misinformation must be considered. We need to safeguard the media ecosystem against the possibility of massive fraud on one hand, and people losing trust in real media on the other.
To excel at engineering design, generative AI must learn to …
WEBOct 19, 2023 — But, as the researchers also highlight in their study, with some careful planning of task-appropriate metrics, AI models could be an effective design “co-pilot.” “This is about how AI can help engineers be better and faster at creating innovative products,” Ahmed says. “To do that, we have to first understand the requirements.
Ensuring AI works with the right dose of curiosity
WEBNov 10, 2022 — In the pursuit of making AI agents with just the right dose of curiosity, researchers from MIT’s Improbable AI Laboratory and Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) created an algorithm that overcomes the problem of AI being too “curious” and getting distracted by a given task. Their algorithm automatically ...
