Meta Reveals a New “Human-Like” Artificial Intelligence Model

Meta has released a New "Human-Like" Artificial Intelligence model called I-JEPA

On Tuesday, Meta Platforms said that it will provide academics access to parts of a new "human-like" artificial intelligence model that it claims is better than current models at analyzing and finishing incomplete photos.

Instead of focusing exclusively on surrounding pixels like previous generative AI models, the human-like AI model, called I-JEPA, fills in empty portions of pictures using prior information about the outside environment, the business said.

According to Meta, this method integrates the type of thinking that prominent AI researcher Yann LeCun has argued is more like that of humans and helps the technology avoid mistakes that are typical of AI-generated graphics, such as hands with additional digits.

Through its internal research lab, Meta, the company that owns Facebook and Instagram, publishes a lot of open-sourced AI research. According to Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg, sharing models created by Meta's researchers may benefit the business by fostering innovation, identifying safety flaws, and reducing expenses.

In April, he said to investors, "For us, it's a lot better if the industry standardizes on the core tools that we're using so that we can benefit from the advancements that others make.

The company's management has disregarded industry warnings about the potential pitfalls of the technology, refusing to sign a declaration last month that compared its dangers to pandemics and armed conflicts and was supported by top executives from OpenAI, DeepMind, Microsoft, and Google.

One of the "godfathers of AI," Lecun, has denounced "AI doomerism" and urged in favour of incorporating safety measures into AI systems.
