OmniGen: Unified Image Generation what: one transformer for the text-to-image diffusion model. - rectified flow. - multimodal condition: text and image. - one model processes all context and does diffusion steps.
Diffusion Policy Policy Optimization what: set of best practices for fine-tuning diffusion-based policies in continuous control and robot learning tasks.
my thoughts - i like how AI community is trying to simplify everything. surprisingly sometimes it works well. for example, rectified flow is simplified version of diffusion. - rl + diffusion => next step in brain stimulation? diffusion models could mimic brain patterns for smoother stimulation. with RL, they’d adapt in real-time, making treatments more precise and personalized. shifting from rigid protocols to dynamic brain interventions.

Andrey, a Russian entrepreneur living in Brazil who, fearing retaliation, asked that NPR not use his last name, said Telegram has become one of the few places Russians can access independent news about the war. Telegram has become more interventionist over time, and has steadily increased its efforts to shut down these accounts. But this has also meant that the company has also engaged with lawmakers more generally, although it maintains that it doesn’t do so willingly. For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores. "And that set off kind of a battle royale for control of the platform that Durov eventually lost," said Nathalie Maréchal of the Washington advocacy group Ranking Digital Rights. Additionally, investors are often instructed to deposit monies into personal bank accounts of individuals who claim to represent a legitimate entity, and/or into an unrelated corporate account. To lend credence and to lure unsuspecting victims, perpetrators usually claim that their entity and/or the investment schemes are approved by financial authorities. Despite Telegram's origins, its approach to users' security has privacy advocates worried.
