- StandardSummaries onlyWhy Image Generation Needs More Than Bigger Models with Fatih Porikli
Published Aug 12, 2026
Fatih PorikliText-to-image models have become remarkably good at producing realistic images. But realism isn’t the same as correctness. Ask for several distinct people, a specific composition, or a high-resolution image generated locally, and today’s models still struggle in surprising ways. In this episode, Fatih Porikli, Vice President of Technology at Qualcomm, joins me to discuss what remains unsolved in image generation and several approaches his team presented at CVPR to address those challenges. We ex
- StandardSummaries onlyDistilling Transformers and Diffusion Models for Robust Edge Use Cases with Fatih Porikli
Published Jul 9, 2025
Fatih PorikliToday, we're joined by Fatih Porikli, senior director of technology at Qualcomm AI Research for an in-depth look at several of Qualcomm's accepted papers and demos featured at this year’s CVPR conference. We start with “DiMA: Distilling Multi-modal Large Language Models for Autonomous Driving,” an end-to-end autonomous driving system that incorporates distilling large language models for structured scene understanding and safe planning motion in critical "long-tail" scenarios. We explore how DiM
