Summary Scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a technique that can drastically speed up large language models. By specifically modifying the computational process of the BERT model, the researchers were able to reduce the number of neurons required for inference to 0.3 percent of the original value. Only 12 out of 4,095 neurons per layer …

Summary Researchers at the Technical University of Munich have developed DiffusionAvatars, a method for creating high-quality 3D avatars with realistic facial expressions. The system was trained using RGB videos and 3D meshes of human heads. After training, the system is able to animate avatars both by taking animations from the input videos and by generating …
Summary How useful are AI tutors for learning? A study with 1,200 participants investigates whether GPT-4 can help with math education. ChatGPT and other AI tools that use large language models are used by students and teachers. A first comprehensive study now examines whether these tools lead to learning success. The paper “Math Education with …
Summary A new study by Chinese researchers shows how easy it is to bypass the safety mechanisms of multimodal AI models (MLLM). The study tested the safety of Google Bard and GPT-4V using targeted attacks. Specifically, images were manipulated to deliberately mislead the models (image embedding attack) and to respond to requests that should have …
