Controlled diffusion model can change material properties in images
Researchers from the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and Google Research may have just performed digital sorcery โ in the form of a diffusion model that can change the material properties of objects in images. Dubbed Alchemist, the system allows users to alter four attributes of both real and AI-generated pictures: roughness,…

AI generates high-quality images 30 times faster in a single step
In our current age of artificial intelligence, computers can generate their own โartโ by way of diffusion models, iteratively adding structure to a noisy initial state until a clear image or video emerges. Diffusion models have suddenly grabbed a seat at everyoneโs table: Enter a few words and experience instantaneous, dopamine-spiking dreamscapes at the intersection…
