Man used AI to make indecent child images

August 12, 2024

Hugh Nelson, 27, is set to be sentenced in September after admitting to 11 charges at Bolton Crown Court, including creating and distributing indecent images of children using AI technology. This "landmark case" highlights the use of AI to transform ordinary photographs of real children into indecent material. Nelson's crimes, which included inciting a minor to engage in sexual activity and distributing obscene content, have led to a global investigation with further arrests and safeguarding actions. The case has sparked discussions about the need for updated legislation to address the misuse of emerging technologies in criminal activities.

Meta Aims to Downsize Its AI Language Models

August 08, 2024

While large language AI models continue to capture attention, the real focus might be shifting to smaller models. Meta seems to be betting on this shift, as highlighted in a recent paper by its research team. Unlike massive models like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Llama, which rely on billions or even trillions of parameters, these large models are too bulky to run efficiently on mobile devices. Meta’s scientists pointed out that there's a growing demand for efficient language models suitable for mobile deployment, driven by rising cloud costs and concerns over latency.In their research, the team outlined how they developed high-quality language models with fewer than a billion parameters—an ideal size for mobile platforms. Challenging the common belief that the sheer number of parameters primarily drives model quality, the scientists managed to produce results that in some areas rival Meta’s Llama LLM.“There’s a prevailing paradigm that ‘bigger is better,’ but this shows it’s really about how the parameters are utilized,” said Nick DeGiacomo, CEO of Bucephalus, an AI-powered e-commerce supply chain platform based in New York City. “This opens the door to broader adoption of on-device AI,” he told TechNewsWorld.
