Kuaishou Cola AI announced two important developments at the 2025 World Artificial Intelligence Conference: the launch of the integrated creation platform Linghu Animation Canvas and the upgrade of the multi-image reference feature. Data shows that the platform has surpassed 45 million global creators, generating a total of 200 million videos and 400 million images. The new workbench integrates features such as infinite canvas, intelligent assistance, and multi-user collaboration, offering a one-stop creative experience. The upgraded multi-image reference feature significantly improves character consistency, scene uniformity, and local control capabilities. In terms of commercialization, the number of B-end merchants has seen explosive growth, with 20,000 companies across 149 countries worldwide.

Zhiyuan Robotics announced the open-source plan for the Zhiyuan Lingqu OS, an embodied intelligence operating system, at the 2025 World Artificial Intelligence Conference. The humanoid robot Lingxi X2 demonstrated intelligent interaction capabilities through natural dialogue. The system adopts a layered open-source model, including underlying middleware, agent framework, and toolchain, with plans to launch in the fourth quarter. Zhiyuan Robotics has already achieved application in fields such as industrial logistics, and its Qiyuan general embodied large model won the SAIL Star Award. The company will continue to improve the operating system and promote the development of embodied intelligence industry.

A major breakthrough has emerged in the AI video field — Vidu Q1 video model, launched by Shengshu Technology, officially released the Reference Generation feature, offering a revolutionary experience where video material can be generated from imagination in one step, redefining the technical boundaries and production efficiency of content creation. In traditional video production processes, creators have to go through complex steps such as script writing, character design, storyboard drawing, real scene shooting, and post-production editing, and the creation of a short film often takes several weeks or even months. The release of the Reference Generation feature in Vidu Q1 has completely broken this established model. Users

Market Growth Forecast - A latest industry report shows that the global artificial intelligence (AI) market size is expected to grow from $273.6 billion in 2023 to $5.26 trillion by 2035, with a compound annual growth rate as high as 30.84%. This figure highlights that AI technology will continue to maintain rapid development over the next decade.

The AI content creation platform InstantDream AI, under ByteDance, has undergone a major update. The smart reference function of its core product, InstantDream Images 3.0, has been fully launched. With strong Chinese understanding capabilities and cinematic-level generation effects, this function completely disrupts the traditional design process, allowing ordinary users to easily create professional-level posters, e-commerce covers, and short video graphics. Smart Reference Function: Unlock Professional Design with One Click The smart reference function of InstantDream Images 3.0 allows users to upload reference images and generate style-specific images through simple text prompts (Prompts).

Black Forest Labs (BFL), founded by the creator of the renowned Stable Diffusion model, recently launched its next-generation image generation model FLUX.1Kontext. This model not only generates and edits photos but also allows users to modify images multiple times via text and reference images, bringing new possibilities to enterprise AI applications. Multiple versions and platform support are available from BFL for FLUX.1Kontext.

Recently, the 12th China Network Audio-Visual Conference was grandly opened in Chengdu, Sichuan. At the conference, Chen Rui, Chairman and CEO of Bilibili (Bilibili), delivered a keynote speech titled "High-Quality Content in the AI Era," sharing his insights on content creation in the new era.

Recently, a line art coloring method called MangaNinja has garnered widespread attention, allowing users to color target line art based on reference images with just an input of the line art and the reference image. This technology is based on a diffusion model and focuses on reference-image-guided line art coloring, significantly enhancing the accuracy of coloring and interactive control capabilities. The research team employed two innovative designs to ensure precise transfer of character details. First, they introduced a patch rearrangement module to facilitate correspondence learning between the reference color images and the target line art. Secondly, they adopted a point-driven approach.

Driven by multimodal large language models (MLLMs), significant advancements have been made in tasks related to images and videos, including visual question answering, narrative generation, and interactive editing. However, achieving fine-grained understanding of video content still poses major challenges. These challenges involve tasks such as pixel-level segmentation, tracking with language descriptions, and visual question answering based on specific video prompts. Although current state-of-the-art video perception models excel in segmentation and tracking tasks, they still fall short in open language understanding and conversational capabilities.

Baidu AI's Wenxin Yiyuan AI painting technology has received a major upgrade, now supporting one-click generation of images in multiple aspect ratios, greatly simplifying the image preparation process for new media. The professional version of Wenxin Yiyuan AI painting technology allows users to input the desired image aspect ratio, and the system can automatically generate images in multiple sizes, covering various needs within a width-to-height ratio of 2:1. For example, simply adding the aspect ratio term '3:4' to the prompt will prompt the system to generate images of the corresponding size. This technology not only improves work efficiency but also enhances visual effects, significantly benefiting new media.

China's first fully self-developed video model, Vidu, created by Shengshu Technology and Tsinghua University, introduces the 'Subject Reference' feature to ensure character consistency in AI-generated videos. Users can upload images, and Vidu maintains consistency across various scenes. This free feature marks a new era in AI video creation, aiming for precise multi-subject interaction and style uniformity. Director Shi Yuxiang praised its enhanc....

The issue of deepfake crimes in South Korea has drawn widespread attention from society, particularly concerning the increasing number of cases involving minors, with an estimated 220,000 individuals affected. The victim demographics are broad, including students, teachers, military personnel, and a significant proportion of minors. These crimes are rapidly disseminated through social media, with some victims' information being used for validation in illicit groups. Cases of deepfake targeting women have garnered particular attention, with known affected schools exceeding 100, including both domestic and overseas Korean international schools. In response, the South Korean president has called for strengthened investigations and the eradication of crimes utilizing digital technology.
