Flow-based generative models trained with flow matching tend to... learn curved trajectories, which are challenging to approximate in a few steps. Rectified flows aim to learn straight trajectories, which are easier to simulate with less computation.show more

In flow matching, a coupling determines how noise and... data samples are paired during training. The choice of coupling is important because it influences the geometry of trajectories at inference time. The simplest choice is the independent coupling, where noise and data points are paired arbitrarily. This can lead to curved trajectories as the model averages over many conflicting pairings. However, if we use optimal transport on batches of pairs, this leads to fewer ambiguous intersections that the model must resolve, leading to straighter trajectories at inference time.show more

Agent workflow, tinkering with agent workflow visualisation, designed in... Figma, animated with Motion It was also a good opportunity to learn xyflow · React Flow · Svelte Flowshow more

We are also releasing self-contained lecture notes that explain... flow matching and diffusion models from scratch. This goes from "zero" to the state-of-the-art in modern Generative AI. 📖 Read the notes here: Joint work with Ezra Erives.show more

New research from BlackForestLabsAI - Unofficial 🥳 Meet Self-Flow:... our self-supervised framework for image, audio, video & world models 🤖 Do generative models really need DINO to learn strong representations? We propose teaching them directly via a joint framework instead 🧵show more

🇮🇷| Armed rioters were observed firing with Kalashnikov in... Ilam city, few hours ago Ilam is 40km from the border with Iraq, and is easier for rioters to gain weapons from weapon smugglers. These are trained individuals with the sole aim of creating chaos.show more

Sometimes Flow is refered to as a silent film,... which isn't true. Dialogue free would be a better description. Without dialogue we can use the other tools of cinema in a much more expressive way. The music, the sound, the camera, lighting and animation don't have to compete with the dialogue which can tend to attract all the attention.show more

Within Quai Network, cross-chain transactions travel through coincident blocks,... which are blocks that are simultaneously valid in multiple chains. Coincident blocks are produced by miners, and enable liquidity to flow seamlessly between Quai chains with no centralized bridges.show more

hi all, excited to join! i'm building an expressive... mini "shoggoth" robot which will eventually be hooked up to gpt4o realtime voice. i'm currently working on the low-level policies, which are trained in a mujoco simulation with RL. to delay working on raw-pixels for now, i trained a pose-estimation model using deeplabcut and triangulate the position in 3d space using the stereo cameras. eventually, i'll use gpt4o's tool calling capabilities to activate several of these policies (closed and open loop) based on the dialog flow! captions: manual actuation of the tentacle / 3d pose estimation / target designshow more

Instead of going to filmschool, I made my first... feature film Away which I started at 20 and finished at 24. I think the best way to learn is by making films so I did everything on my own. It went on to win the Contrechamp award in Annecy which gave me the opportunity to make Flowshow more

From the beginning, Flow has been a tool built... by artists, for artists. In that spirit, we have some news: 1) Welcome Henry Daubrez 🌸💀 as our first filmmaker in residence who will work directly with our team to shape the future of Flow. 2) We're launching Flow Sessions, a pilot program that will provide mentorship and education for filmmakers on how they can best use Flow to bring their stories to life.

Having seen a few comments, I’d like to clarify... something. We haven’t used generative AI in the design team. We have the human capabilities to create what we want, and when our capabilities are limited, we learn and strive to achieve our goalsshow more
