Solaris: Towards Interfaces That Are Generated, Not Coded

Abstract

Digital interfaces are traditionally implemented through intermediate representations such as code, requiring their appearance and behavior to be specified in advance. We introduce Solaris, an interface world model that instead generates an interactive UI directly, frame by frame, in response to user actions. Solaris treats mouse interactions as conditioning signals and autoregressively synthesizes the resulting visual state at interactive speeds. To enable real-time generation while maintaining visual coherence over extended interactions, we combine autoregressive frame generation with few-step distillation and training on the model's own outputs. A language model complements the visual world model by interpreting user intent and specifying how interactions should affect the generated environment, separating high-level reasoning from visual rendering. By generating both the appearance and behavior of an interface dynamically, Solaris enables open-ended interactions that need not be explicitly programmed in advance. We view interface world models as a step toward a new paradigm for software, where interfaces are generated and adapted continuously around user intent rather than implemented as fixed collections of predefined states and

A survey of AI-generated voices and their detection

The ability of artificial intelligence (AI) models to generate highly realistic human voices has advanced rapidly. These technologies power accessibility tools, virtual assistants and creative applications, but they also enable harmful uses, including impersonation, fraud and disinformation. Recent incidents of voice cloning scams targeting businesses and political leaders underscore the urgent need for robust safeguards. Unlike image and video deepfakes, the detection of synthetic voices poses unique challenges due to the complexity of phonetics, prosody and auditory perception. This survey offers a comprehensive overview of AI voice generation and detection methods, encompassing both the technical foundations and the latest state-of-the-art advances. This study also identifies key open challenges, benchmark resources and future directions to make this survey useful for future researchers.

When Saying No Makes Better Videos: Designing Dual Gatekeeping for Pedagogically Grounded AI Content Creation

To prevent the adoption of aesthetically polished but pedagogically flawed AI content, we study a video authoring pipeline featuring two layers of structured refusal. The first layer empowers educators to iteratively reshape AI scripts based on multimedia learning theory, while the second employs automated metrics to flag violations in instructional coherence and narrative-visual synchronization. While neither layer is exhaustive, their synergy ensures that principled resistance--the act of deferring AI output until it meets rigorous standards--becomes a catalyst for higher quality. Evaluation combining a study with 23 educators across 3 topics and automated metrics across 7 topics drawn from established science and philosophy curricula shows that both layers independently improve the same instructional dimensions, suggesting that thoughtful resistance and generative AI are not opposites but partners.

Measuring Similarity between Artistic and AI Generated Images using Siamese Neural Networks

AI-generated art has sparked debates around potential plagiarism, as these images may closely resemble existing artworks. This research quantifies the similarity between original pieces and AI-generated counterparts, particularly those produced by the Stable Diffusion XL Refiner 1.0. We use Siamese Networks with frozen CLIP encoders and cosine similarity optimized through triplet loss. A dataset of paired original and generated images was built using image-to-image generation and custom prompts, enriched with semantic descriptors and BLIP-2 captions. Prior studies report up to 81\% style replication and 90\% visual similarity. Our results show high discriminative performance: training accuracy reached 99.9\%, and the best model configuration achieved 99.4\% test accuracy with strong inter-class separation ($δμ$ = 0.677), demonstrating the effectiveness of our semantic-visual embeddings.
