The code for our paper, "Object-based attention for spatio-temporal reasoning" (arxiv.org/abs/2012.08508), is now available: github.com/deepmind/deepm…. In addition to model code, we provide trained parameters so anyone can re-run our model.

CLEVRER introduced difficult reasoning tasks that previous deep neural nets couldn’t solve, leading to calls for a paradigm-shift to neuro-symbolic AI. This work shows that, in fact, an object-based transformer significantly outperforms NS models, 75% vs 46% on the hardest task.

Attention over learned object embeddings enables complex visual reasoning
Neural networks have achieved success in a wide array of perceptual tasks but often fail at tasks involving both perception and higher-level reasoning. On these more challenging tasks, bespoke...

From day 1, we wanted to ensure that our platform is useful for professional creators. Inpainting is a first step in this direction, more to come!

Can neural networks learn to perform explanatory & counterfactual reasoning? Researchers find that an object-centric transformer substantially outperforms leading neuro-symbolic models on two reasoning tasks thought to be challenging for deep neural nets: bit.ly/3mmMLrl

Hats off to our engineers, who worked around the clock to make this possible 🫡

We're rolling out new features to help you create longer, more coherent tracks. First, extensions now use a context-window of up to two minutes, increased from 30 seconds. This means verse and chorus structures are more consistent. Check out the example below! (h/t user

Some exciting new features, such as 2-minute model and following your favorite creators. Less flashy but just as useful is the ability to control the random seed.

Today we’re delighted to launch more new features, starting with a model capable of two-minute generations, udio-130. This makes it much easier to create tracks with long-term coherence and structure. Check out the track below for a taste of what’s possible using a single

Also really grateful to our support team at @googlecloud for working around the clock to provision more compute. Our launch wouldn’t have been possible without them!

Next, you can now extend tracks up to a maximum of 15 minutes. This is ideal for creating longer mixes, ambient tracks, or prog-rock epics. udio.com/songs/27cf6708…

Excited that this is out! When Kazuya and I started training the first versions of this model last year, we had no idea that it would turn out this good, the progress that the team has made in the last year was incredible. Thanks @avdnoord for being a fantastic team lead!
