Meta shares AI model that can detect objects it hasn't seen before

AI normally needs to be trained on existing material to detect objects, but Meta has a way for the technology to spot items without help. The social media giant has published a "Segment Anything" AI model that can detect objects in pictures and videos even if they weren't part of the training set. You can select items by clicking them or using free-form text prompts. As Reutersexplains, you can type the word "cat" and watch the AI highlight all the felines in a given photo.
