πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί Policy Thoughts in the EU AI Act Implementation πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί

There is a lot to like in the first draft of the EU GPAI Code of Practice, especially as regards transparency requirements. The Systemic Risks part, on the other hand, is concerning for both smaller developers and for external stakeholders.

I wrote more on this topic ahead of the next draft. TLDR: more attention to immediate large-scale risks and to collaborative solutions supported by evidence can help everyone - as long as developers disclose sufficient information about their design choices and deployment contexts.

Full blog here, based on our submitted response with @frimelle and @brunatrevelin :

πŸš€ Excited to announce the release of our new research paper, "LLAVAGUARD: VLM-based Safeguards for Vision Dataset Curation and Safety Assessment"!
In this work, we introduce LLAVAGUARD, a family of cutting-edge Vision-Language Model (VLM) judges designed to enhance the safety and integrity of vision datasets and generative models. Our approach leverages flexible policies for assessing safety in diverse settings. This context awareness ensures robust data curation and model safeguarding alongside comprehensive safety assessments, setting a new standard for vision datasets and models. We provide three versions (7B, 13B, and 34B) and our data, see below. This achievement wouldn't have been possible without the incredible teamwork and dedication of my great colleagues @LukasHug , @PSaiml , @mbrack . πŸ™ Together, we've pushed the boundaries of what’s possible at the intersection of large generative models and safety.
πŸ” Dive into our paper to explore:
Innovative methodologies for dataset curation and model safeguarding.
State-of-the-art safety assessments.
Practical implications for AI development and deployment.

πŸ‘·πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ“šπŸ”¨ Announcing the Foundation Model Development Cheatsheet!

My first πŸ€—PostπŸ€— ever to announce the release of a fantastic collaborative resource to support model developers across the full development stack: The FM Development Cheatsheet available here: https://fmcheatsheet.org/

The cheatsheet is a growing database of the many crucial resources coming from open research and development efforts to support the responsible development of models. This new resource highlights essential yet often underutilized tools in order to make it as easy as possible for developers to adopt best practices, covering among other aspects:
πŸ§‘πŸΌβ€πŸ€β€πŸ§‘πŸΌ data selection, curation, and governance;
πŸ“– accurate and limitations-aware documentation;
⚑ energy efficiency throughout the training phase;
πŸ“Š thorough capability assessments and risk evaluations;
🌏 environmentally and socially conscious deployment strategies.

We strongly encourage developers working on creating and improving models to make full use of the tools listed here, and to help keep the resource up to date by adding the resources that you yourself have developed or found useful in your own practice πŸ€—

Congrats to all the participants in this effort for the release! Read more about it from:
