Google Unveils ‘Sample What You Can’t Compress’ in AI—A Game-Changer in High-Fidelity Image Compression
The key challenge in the image autoencoding process is to create high-quality reconstructions that can retain fine details, especially when the image data has undergone compression. Traditional autoencoders, which rely on pixel-level losses such as mean squared error (MSE), tend to produce blurry outputs without capturing high-frequency details, textual information, and edge information. While adversarial…

SecCodePLT: A Unified Platform for Evaluating Security Risks in Code GenAI
Code generation AI models (Code GenAI) are becoming pivotal in developing automated software demonstrating capabilities in writing, debugging, and reasoning about code. However, their ability to autonomously generate code raises concerns about security vulnerabilities. These models may inadvertently introduce insecure code, which could be exploited in cyberattacks. Furthermore, their potential use in aiding malicious actors…

Meta AI Releases Meta Spirit LM: An Open Source Multimodal Language Model Mixing Text and Speech
One of the primary challenges in developing advanced text-to-speech (TTS) systems is the lack of expressivity when transcribing and generating speech. Traditionally, large language models (LLMs) used for building TTS pipelines convert speech to text using automatic speech recognition (ASR), process it using an LLM, and then convert the output back to speech via TTS.…
