Meta releases AI model ‘SAM,’ can identify items within images

Facebook parent Meta released an artificial intelligence (AI) model that can pick out the different items within the photographs, Fox News reported.
Meta’s research division said that it has published a Segment Anything Model (SAM) and the corresponding dataset to foster research into foundation models for computer vision. In its statement, Meta said that SAM can identify the objects within images and videos – even in cases where it had not encountered those items in its training.
“The model is designed and trained to be prompt, so it can transfer zero-shot to new image distributions and tasks,” Meta said in a blog post.
“We evaluate its capabilities on numerous tasks and find that its zero-shot performance is impressive – often competitive with or even superior to prior fully supervised results,” it added.
