A Holistic Approach to Undesired Content Detection in the Real World
We present a holistic approach to building a robust and useful natural language classification system for real-world content moderation.
Improved Techniques for Training Consistency Models
Consistency models are a nascent family of generative models that can sample high quality data in one step without the need for adversarial training.
Consistency Models
Diffusion models have significantly advanced the fields of image, audio, and video generation, but they depend on an iterative sampling process that causes slow generation.

Video generation models as world simulators
We explore large-scale training of generative models on video data. Specifically, we train text-conditional diffusion models jointly on videos and images of variable durations, resolutions and aspect ratios. We leverage a transformer architecture that operates on spacetime patches of video and image latent codes. Our largest model, Sora, is capable of generating a minute of high fidelity video. Our results suggest that scaling video generation models is a promising path towards building general purpose simulators of the physical world.
Disrupting malicious uses of AI by state-affiliated threat actors
Building an early warning system for LLM-aided biological threat creation
We’re developing a blueprint for evaluating the risk that a large language model (LLM) could aid someone in creating a biological threat. In an evaluation involving both biology experts and students, we found that GPT-4 provides at most a mild uplift in biological threat creation accuracy. While this uplift is not large enough to be conclusive, our finding is a starting point for continued research and community deliberation.
