In this post, we introduce a novel method to perform content moderation on image data with multi-modal pre-training and a large language model (LLM). With multi-modal pre-training, we can directly query the image content based on a set of questions of interest and the model will be able to answer these questions. This enables users to chat with the image to confirm if it contains any inappropriate content that violates the organization’s policies. We use the powerful generating capability of LLMs to generate the final decision including safe/unsafe labels and category type. In addition, by designing a prompt, we can make an LLM generate the defined output format, such as JSON format. The designed prompt template allows the LLM to determine if the image violates the moderation policy, identify the category of violation, explain why, and provide the output in a structured JSON format.

In this post, we discuss how Thomson Reuters Labs created Open Arena, Thomson Reuters’s enterprise-wide large language model (LLM) playground that was developed in collaboration with AWS. The original concept came out of an AI/ML Hackathon supported by Simone Zucchet (AWS Solutions Architect) and Tim Precious (AWS Account Manager) and was developed into production using AWS services in under 6 weeks with support from AWS. AWS-managed services such as AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon SageMaker, as well as the pre-built Hugging Face Deep Learning Containers (DLCs), contributed to the pace of innovation.

Digital assets are vital visual representations of products, services, culture, and brand identity for businesses in an increasingly digital world. Digital assets, together with recorded user behavior, can facilitate customer engagement by offering interactive and personalized experiences, allowing companies to connect with their target audience on a deeper level. Efficiently discovering and searching for specific […]

Creative advertising has the potential to be revolutionized by generative AI (GenAI). You can now create a wide variation of novel images, such as product shots, by retraining a GenAI model and providing a few inputs into the model, such as textual prompts (sentences describing the scene and objects to be produced by the model). […]

Advertising agencies can use generative AI and text-to-image foundation models to create innovative ad creatives and content. In this post, we demonstrate how you can generate new images from existing base images using Amazon SageMaker, a fully managed service to build, train, and deploy ML models for at scale. With this solution, businesses large and […]

Large language models (LLMs) can be used to analyze complex documents and provide summaries and answers to questions. The post Domain-adaptation Fine-tuning of Foundation Models in Amazon SageMaker JumpStart on Financial data describes how to fine-tune an LLM using your own dataset. Once you have a solid LLM, you’ll want to expose that LLM to […]
