Maschine statt Mensch: Das Ende des Bügelbierflaschenzudrückers
Er ist vielleicht der letzte seiner Art: Rainer Frank, von Beruf Bügelbierflaschenzudrücker. Geschätzt 15 Millionen Bierflaschen hat er in seinem Leben zugemacht. Die Brauerei hat ihn durch einen Automaten ersetzt. Aber wer ist wirklich schneller?

InfoSteer: Steering Information Utility in Language Model Post-Training
Recent advancements in language models (LMs) gradually ushered in an era where post-training is crucial. Yet, post-training approaches such as supervised fine-tuning (SFT) do not guarantee effective use of knowledge acquired during pretraining. We therefore present \ours, a lightweight method that encourages parametric information utilization in LMs during post-training. This is achieved via treating FFN layer as associate key-value memory, and promotes the use of stored memory vectors via forw…

Deepfakes in Criminal Investigations: Interdisciplinary Research Directions for CMC Research
The emergence of deepfake technologies offers both opportunities and significant challenges. While commonly associated with deception, misinformation, and fraud, deepfakes may also enable novel applications in high-stakes contexts such as criminal investigations. However, these applications raise complex technological, ethical, and legal questions. We adopt an interdisciplinary approach, drawing on computer science, philosophy, and law, to examine what it takes to responsibly use deepfakes in c…
