On July 15, Mita AI Search announced the completion of a new iteration of its 'Deep Research' module and its official public beta launch, becoming the first search service in China that is freely open to the public and features multi-turn reasoning chain visualization. The upgraded system adopts a segmented reinforcement learning strategy, breaking down the originally computationally intensive 'Deep Research' tasks into multiple sub-tasks, maintaining result accuracy while reducing operational costs to a level that allows for public free access. It performs particularly well in retrieving and reasoning with Chinese corpus.

On July 11, PixVerse AI video creation platform, which has surpassed 60 million global users, announced a major feature upgrade — the addition of the 'Multi-Keyframe Generation' function in the Start-End Frame module. This marks a new stage in AI video creation, transitioning from the generation of single segments to narrative expression. Users can now upload up to 7 images as keyframes via the web version's start-end frame feature, and the AI will automatically analyze the semantic relationships between frames, intelligently building smooth action and scene transition paths. This technological breakthrough enables static images to be presented dynamically.

Meta and Berkeley developed StreamDiT for real-time AI video generation: 1) 16fps 512p on single GPU, 4B-param model creates 1-min videos with live edits; 2) Novel buffer enables parallel processing (2 frames/0.5s) with 8-step optimization; 3) Trained on 3K HD videos + 2.6M dataset; 4) Outperforms rivals in motion smoothness, 30B-param version shows quality potential; 5) Enables interactive video despite transition flaws.....

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

PolyU & OPPO developed DLoRAL, a video super-resolution framework using dual LoRA: CLoRA for temporal consistency and DLoRA for spatial details. Its two-stage training balances quality and speed (10× faster inference), with open-source code/models available. Limited in tiny text recovery but promising for real-time applications.....

Hong Kong Polytechnic University and OPPO Research Institute jointly released the open-source video super-resolution framework DLoRAL, which generates high-definition videos in one step using diffusion models. The framework adopts a dual LoRA architecture: C-LoRA maintains temporal consistency between frames, while D-LoRA enhances spatial details. Through a two-stage training strategy, it optimizes temporal coherence and high-frequency information. Compared to traditional methods, DLoRAL improves inference speed by 10 times while maintaining smoothness, significantly enhancing image details, and providing an efficient open-source solution for video HD enhancement.
