Alibaba Cloud is about to release the upgraded video generation AI model Wan 2.2, achieving multiple breakthroughs based on Wan 2.1: 1) Performance improvements, supporting high-resolution 1080p/4K and long video generation; 2) New video-to-audio function, enhancing multimodal creation; 3) Optimized hardware requirements, capable of running on devices with 6GB VRAM; 4) Training data expanded to 1.5 billion videos + 10 billion images; 5) Continued open-source strategy, using the Apache 2.0 license. This model will solidify Alibaba's leading position in the field of AI video generation.

AI startup Manus recently announced the launch of its new Text-to-Video function, aiming to provide users with a convenient experience to generate videos through simple text commands. The function is now available for抢先 trial to Basic, Plus, and Pro members. Manus stated on social media platform X that users just need to enter text commands, and their intelligent system can convert these instructions into structured and coherent videos within minutes, demonstrating its strong capabilities in AI video generation.

Microsoft Bing officially launched a new "Bing Video Creator" feature this Monday. This function is based on the OpenAI Sora model, marking the first free availability of video creation capabilities; ordinary users can also easily create videos through text prompts. The launch of the Bing Video Creator allows users to create their own short videos with simple text descriptions. It is worth noting that this feature currently only supports mobile devices and has not yet been released for desktop use.

The rapid advancement of generative AI technology has revolutionized digital content creation, but bias remains a persistent issue. A recent investigation by Wired magazine into OpenAI's video generation tool, Sora, revealed that the tool frequently reinforces stereotypes related to race, gender, and ability, sometimes even neglecting the representation of certain groups. Image Note: Image generated by AI, image licensed by Midjourney. In the investigation, researchers provided S...

OpenAI recently issued an incident report acknowledging a high error rate in its Chat Completions API. The company confirmed the issue and is actively working on mitigation. Concurrently, OpenAI reported that a previous issue affecting Sora image generation has been resolved, and the team is continuously monitoring the system for stability. This incident report highlights the challenges even leading AI companies face in delivering consistently reliable services.

HPC-AI Tech recently announced Open-Sora 2.0, a groundbreaking video AI system achieving commercial-grade quality at approximately one-tenth the typical training cost. This represents a potential paradigm shift in the resource-intensive field of video AI, mirroring efficiency gains seen in language models. While existing high-quality video generation systems like Movie Gen and Step-Video-T2V can cost millions of dollars to train, Open-Sora 2.0 offers a significantly more affordable alternative.

Heard of OpenAI's extravagant Sora? With training costs easily exceeding millions of dollars, it's like the Rolls-Royce of video generation. Now, LuChern Technology announces the open-sourcing of its video generation model, Open-Sora 2.0! For a mere $200,000 (equivalent to 224 GPUs), they successfully trained a commercial-grade video generation model with 11 billion parameters. Performance rivals OpenAI Sora. Don't let the low cost of Open-Sora 2.0 fool you...

OpenAI's leadership team announced during a Discord office hours session on Friday that the company plans to eventually integrate its AI video generation tool, Sora, directly into the popular ChatGPT application, further expanding its AI creative ecosystem. Currently, Sora is only available through a dedicated web application launched by OpenAI in December, allowing users to access the AI video model to generate movie clips up to 20 seconds long. Rohan Sahai, OpenAI's product lead for Sora, stated that...

Recently, OpenAI celebrated the one-year anniversary of the release of its text-to-video model, Sora. To commemorate this milestone, OpenAI has launched a remastered version of the animated short film 'Critterz'. This short film uniquely showcases Sora's astonishing video generation capabilities. It presents a side-by-side comparison, with the original 'Critterz' on the left and a brand new version entirely generated by Sora on the right. Viewers can intuitively feel Sora's powerful strength and realistic effects in video generation.

Recently, Shenzhen introduced a humanoid robot that attracted a large audience while strolling on the streets and quickly gained popularity overseas. This robot, named SE01, has a walking style, speed, and stability that closely resembles that of a human, even moving as gracefully as a model on a runway over a distance of several meters. Nvidia scientist Jim Fan expressed skepticism, suggesting that its gait seemed to be artificially generated, but upon verification, it was proven that this robot is indeed real. Zhongqing Robotics' emergence in the robotics field is remarkable.

In the AI field, talent mobility has always been a fiercely competitive arena. Recently, the job switch of Tim Brooks has drawn widespread attention. After working at Sora for only three months, he announced his move to the competitor Google DeepMind. This move is seen as a response to serious challenges faced by Sora's technology, particularly in generating speed and performance, which have been underwhelming compared to other players in the industry. Reports indicate that Sora has numerous technical issues and struggles to compete with Luma and Stabilit.

On Thursday local time in the U.S., ChatGPT, Sora, and OpenAI's API services for developers encountered another outage, lasting over four hours. OpenAI reported a significant disruption starting at 11 AM (all times referenced in this article are local to the U.S.), but by 3:16 PM, services were gradually being restored. Regular users of ChatGPT might recall that there was also an outage earlier this month. On its status page, OpenAI indicated that this major disruption was caused by issues with its upstream provider.
