"MIT Unveils Breakthrough in AI Image Generation, Making Process 30 Times Faster"
MIT scientists have developed a technique called "distribution matching distillation" (DMD) that accelerates popular AI image generators by condensing a 100-stage process into one step, making them up to 30 times faster. This advancement results in smaller, leaner AI models that can generate high-quality images more quickly, reducing computational time and costs. The new approach, detailed in a study uploaded to arXiv, has the potential to significantly impact industries where efficient image generation is crucial.
