AI-generated counterfeit nudes of students from Westfield High School in New Jersey, US, were distributed among peers. The school has not disclosed specific details or taken disciplinary action, citing confidentiality concerns. Similar incidents have occurred in Spain and involved public figures and online influencers. New Jersey lacks legislation to penalize the creation and distribution of…

Hollywood’s Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) is dissatisfied with the latest proposal from the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) in ongoing labor discussions. The sticking point is the use of AI in the industry. SAG-AFTRA remains uncertain if AMPTP will re-enter negotiations or cease discussions entirely. The…

Researchers have developed a framework called Language Models for Motion Control (LaMo) that incorporates Large Language Models (LLMs) for offline reinforcement learning. LaMo combines pre-trained LLMs with Decision Transformers (DT) and introduces innovations like LoRA fine-tuning and auxiliary language loss. It outperforms existing methods in sparse-reward tasks and narrows the gap between value-based offline RL…

Recommender systems are crucial in helping users navigate the vast amount of choices available on the internet. However, accurately predicting user preferences and providing personalized recommendations remains challenging. One emerging approach is the use of knowledge graphs, which encode diverse contextual information and relationships between entities. Language models like GPT-3 can augment knowledge graphs by…

Researchers from the University of Surrey have developed an AI-driven model to optimize the allocation of computing power in Open Radio Access Networks (O-RANs). By minimizing VNF computational costs and reducing overhead associated with reconfigurations, the model has the potential to significantly enhance bandwidth utilization efficiency. The study showcased up to a 76% reduction in…
