Diffusion Models as Artists: Are we Closing the Gap between Humans and Machines?

Victor Boutin, Thomas Fel, Lakshya Singhal +4

An important milestone for AI is the development of algorithms that can produce drawings that are indistinguishable from those of humans. Here, we adapt the 'diversity vs. recogniz…
