Meta Introduces Generative AI Model ‘CM3leon’ For Text, Images – News18

Meta (previously Facebook) has launched a generative synthetic intelligence (AI) mannequin — “CM3leon” (pronounced like chameleon), that does both text-to-image and image-to-text generation.

“CM3leon is the first multimodal model trained with a recipe adapted from text-only language models, including a large-scale retrieval-augmented pre-training stage and a second multitask supervised fine-tuning (SFT) stage,” Meta stated in a blogpost on Friday.

With CM3leon’s capabilities, the corporate stated that the picture era instruments can produce extra coherent imagery that higher follows the enter prompts.

According to Meta, CM3leon requires solely 5 occasions the computing energy and a smaller coaching dataset than earlier transformer-based strategies.

When in comparison with probably the most extensively used picture era benchmark (zero-shot MS-COCO), CM3Leon achieved an FID (Frechet Inception Distance) rating of 4.88, establishing a brand new state-of-the-art in text-to-image era and outperforming Google’s text-to-image mannequin, Parti.

Moreover, the tech big stated that CM3leon excels at a variety of vision-language duties, resembling visible query answering and long-form captioning.

CM3Leon’s zero-shot efficiency compares favourably to bigger fashions educated on bigger datasets, regardless of coaching on a dataset of solely three billion textual content tokens.

“With the purpose of making high-quality generative fashions, we imagine CM3leon’s sturdy efficiency throughout quite a lot of duties is a step towards higher-fidelity picture era and understanding,” Meta said.

“Models like CM3leon could ultimately help boost creativity and better applications in the metaverse. We look forward to exploring the boundaries of multimodal language models and releasing more models in the future,” it added.
