With the rise of generative AI, the prompt trading market is rapidly expanding. However, current trading platforms, exemplified by PromptBase, are predominantly seller-driven in pricing and lack objective price measurement standards. In response to this challenge, the multimedia and intelligent security team at Fudan University has proposed an innovative prompt trading model aimed at better adapting to a future buyer-driven market. This new trading model consists of two main phases: prompt category selection and pricing strategy formulation. In the first phase, the platform employs a greedy search-based multi-armed bandit algorithm to...

Within the complex neural networks of the human brain, billions of neurons are continuously generating electrical activity, encoding our every thought, action, and sensation. The complexity of this neural symphony has long been a significant challenge in brain-computer interface (BCI) research. However, researchers at the University of Southern California (USC) have recently made a major breakthrough by developing a novel artificial intelligence algorithm called DPAD (Decoupled Prioritized Dynamic Analysis), which promises to fundamentally change the way we interpret brain activity.

A new study has developed a new AI tool that makes it easier to detect lies, but only some people agree to use it. Traditional lie detectors appear to measure a person's breathing rate, pulse, blood pressure, and sweating to determine if they are lying, but this 85-year-old technology has long been proven incorrect by scientists. Essentially, the possibility of false positives and the subjectivity of interpreting the results greatly weaken the practicality of lie detectors. Notably, their result

Recently, Kunlun Wanwei, in collaboration with Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, successfully developed an algorithm called Q* that significantly enhances the inference capabilities of existing large models. Q* enables smaller models to achieve inference capabilities comparable to those of models with tens or even hundreds of times more parameters across various datasets, leading to a substantial improvement in model performance while dramatically reducing the demand for computational resources. This brings new possibilities for the widespread application of artificial intelligence and ushers in a new era of efficient intelligence.

While large language models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are impressive, they all share a significant issue: they often generate hallucinations. This is a serious problem in the field of artificial intelligence, and even Apple has expressed concerns about how future Apple Intelligence will handle hallucinations.

The algorithm, named DenseAV, learns the meaning of language by associating audio and video signals. After training DenseAV for an audio-visual matching game, Hamilton and his colleagues observed the pixels the model focused on when it heard sounds. For example, when someone says 'dog', the algorithm immediately looks for dogs in the video stream. This selection of pixels can help people understand what the algorithm believes a particular word means.
