Microsoft has reportedly blocked several keywords from its artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Copilot Designer that could be used to generate explicit images of violent and sexual nature. Keyword blocking exercise was conducted by the tech giant after one of its engineers wrote to the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Microsoft board of directors expressing concerns over the AI tool. Notably, in January 2024, AI-generated explicit deepfakes of musician Taylor Swift emerged online and were said to be created…

Maria Diaz/ZDNETAI image generators allow you to generate images of anything you can think of, including historical figures. However, when users started asking Google's Gemini to depict historical figures or groups of people, they were in for a surprise. In the past week, when users asked Gemini to generate images of historical figures or people of different races or nationalities, they began to notice that none of the images were true to the prompt. Rather, the images failed to render white people, even if the…

Whether it's an upcoming blockbuster movie or a new rollout from major companies like Coca-Cola or Apple, the new research shows how companies might use this type of preannouncement…

Photo: Dominion Energy Virginia The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) reports today that 62.8 gigawatts (GW) of new utility-scale electric generating capacity is coming online in 2024 – here’s how it breaks down. Let’s talk solar first. The EIA expects a record addition of utility-scale solar in 2024 if the scheduled 36.4 GW come online. That would nearly double 2023’s 18.4 GW increase, already a record setter for annual US utility-scale solar installation. Supply chain challenges…

Securing Profits: Strategies for Generating Passive Income in Cybersecurity Take Center Stage in 2024 Passive income is a flow of money that requires little or no consistent effort. As a business model, it is largely self-sustaining. Passive investments typically include upfront investments in a project that provides stable long-term returns. This article explores how individuals in 2024 can use strategies for earning a passive income in cybersecurity and generate additional revenue. Passive income is the…

Learn how to use OnnxStream to generate images with Stable Diffusion XL Turbo on the Raspberry Pi!Images generated using SDXL Turbo on the Raspberry Pi, each taking ~3 minutes | Source: AuthorIn my last article, I shared how to run large language models and vision language models on the Raspberry Pi. This time around, instead of LLMs and VLMs, we shall run an image generation model — Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL) Turbo — on the Raspberry Pi 5. It’s another impossible sounding feat, but open-source wonders do exist, and…

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and AI startup Hugging Face collaborated to see the carbon footprint of all those whimsical AI images we’ve generated over the last few years. They discovered that creating an image using artificial intelligence uses the same energy as charging a smartphone. Generating text, whether a conversation with a chatbot or cleaning up an essay, predictably requires much less energy. The researchers examined 13 tasks, ranging from summarization to text classification, and measured the…

Researchers at the AI startup Hugging Face collaborated with Carnegie Mellon University and discovered that generating an image using artificial intelligence, whether it's to create stock images or realistic ID photos, has a carbon footprint equivalent to charging a smartphone. However, researchers discern that generating text, whether it be to create a conversation with a chatbot or clean up an essay, requires much less energy than generating photos. The researchers quantify that AI-generated text takes up as much energy…

Creating images with generative AI could use as much energy as charging your smartphone according to a new study Friday that measures the environmental impact of generative AI models for the first time. Popular models like ChatGPT’s Dall-E and Midjourney may produce more carbon than driving 4 miles.“Even AI Rappers are Harassed by Police” | AI Unlocked“People think that AI doesn’t have any environmental impacts, that it’s this abstract technological entity that lives on a ‘cloud’,” Dr. Sasha Luccioni, who led the study,…
