Recently, Alibaba announced its latest technological achievement, Animate Anyone 2. This groundbreaking technology enables precise character replacement in videos. According to the project’s official website showcasing case studies, users only need to provide the original video and target character images, allowing the system to achieve real-time character replacement while preserving the original video’s motion trajectory. Experimental data shows that the system can completely transfer a soccer player's shooting motion to an animated character while maintaining the true physical characteristics of the ball's movement. This addresses the complex needs in film production.

Sketch once again surprises designers. With the launch of the Smart Animate feature, UI designers can finally easily inject lively animation effects into prototype designs, making interfaces more attractive and interactive.

Alibaba's Intelligent Computing Research Institute has launched the Animate Anyone technology, capable of turning static images into highly realistic dynamic videos. The technology improves image-to-video systems, addressing hallucination issues, but challenges remain in processing eye and hand movements. Despite advancements, there are concerns over misuse, as personal photos could be used to create fake videos, potentially leading to the spread of misinformation. The team is actively preparing the code for demonstration and public use, but they are worried about the risk of misinformation as the number of fake videos increases. Will the internet face a 'dance forgery' craze in the future?
