A new way to edit or generate images
Autonomy
A system capable of generating images normally requires a tokenizer, which compresses and encodes visual data, along with a generator that can combine and arrange these compact representations in order to create novel images. MIT researchers discovered a new method to create, convert, and “inpaint” images without using a generator at all. This image shows how an input image can be gradually modified by optimizing tokens.
