Bumble Is Blocking 🍆 Pics, DeepMind Proposes Algorithm Distillation and Shutterstock Pairs Up with DALL-E 2

Recent machine-learning developments include Meta’s EnCodec neural audio codec for efficient high-fidelity streaming compression, DeepMind’s Algorithm Distillation method for in-context reinforcement learning without parameter updates, and DiffSBDD, a 3D generative approach to protein-targeted drug design. Shutterstock plans to offer DALL-E 2-generated images while exploring royalty payments for artists whose work contributes to AI training, and companies offering AI-based conversations with deceased people are raising consent and privacy questions. Bumble has open-sourced Private Detector, its tool for identifying and blurring unsolicited explicit images, while Microsoft released DeepSpeed-MII to facilitate low-latency, lower-cost inference for deep-learning models. The update also highlights Lockheed Martin and Red Hat’s work on AI-capable military systems, resources for distributed training and Lightning-based research projects, as well as upcoming AI conferences and paper submission deadlines.
