Excited to share that I recently left Stanford AI PhD to start Pika. Words can't express how grateful I am to have all the support from our investors, advisors, friends, and community members along this journey! And there's nothing more exciting than working on this ambitious &

A great turnout at the LDM tutorial, and a hard act to follow. If you are hungry for more; please come to our workshop on diffusion models this Friday in Hall B1: diffusionworkshop.github.io Submit questions to our fantastic panel of experts here docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Our computer vision textbook is released! Foundations of Computer Vision with Antonio Torralba and Bill Freeman mitpress.mit.edu/9780262048972/… It’s been in the works for >10 years. Covers everything from linear filters and camera optics to diffusion models and radiance fields. 1/4

We are hosting the Social Intelligence in Humans and Robots workshop, at #RSS2024! Join our hybrid workshop on July 19 to discuss about the development of social intelligence for AI systems with our amazing lineup of speakers. Our website is here: social-intelligence-human-ai.github.io.

We are organizing a new workshop on "Knowledge in Generative Models" at #ECCV2024 to explore how generative models learn representations of the visual world and how we can use them for downstream applications. sites.google.com/ttic.edu/knowl… 📅30 September 2024, 2 PM

Thanks to our amazing speakers (David Forsyth, David Bau, Shalini De Mello, Yossi Gandelsman, Phillip Isola, and Ziwei Liu) and our spotlight speakers (Anton Obukhov, Daniel Winter, Samyadeep Basu, Lorenzo Olearo, Anisha Jain, Xindi Wu, and James Burgess (at CVPR)) for their great talks and for

Unified Video Action (UVA) is a single model that leverages joint video-action optimization & decoupled decoding to allow for video generation benefitting policy learning and vice versa. UVA can act as a policy, video generator, inverse dynamics and forward dynamics model. 🧵👇

Video generation is getting crazily good 🤯 — but when using them as robot policies, they are still way too slow or imprecise 😔 Unified Video Action Model (UVA) makes it a bit more practical. ⬇️ 😊 If you are searching for a better robot policy🤖, a world model🌏, or an

Super excited about video generation becoming useful for real-world robots! I believe this is the right approach for scaling up robotic tasks. The current framework is limited by compute and model size—happy to discuss scaling it up!
