Baidu has once again taken the lead. On October 15, Baidu Search officially announced a major upgrade to its Wenxin Assistant, significantly enhancing its AIGC (Artificial Intelligence Generated Content) multimodal creation and intelligent task-solving capabilities. This update enables the Wenxin Assistant not only to generate text but also to create eight different types of content, including AI images, videos, music, and podcasts, marking a new era in AI creation.

Data shows that the daily AIGC content generated by users of the Wenxin Assistant has exceeded ten million. In this upgrade, Baidu also launched the industry's first open real-time interactive digital human agent, featuring highly realistic appearances and low-latency emotional interaction capabilities. This new feature will provide users with more professional content and companionship services, making human-AI interactions more vivid and friendly.

In terms of user experience, the Wenxin Assistant now covers everything from short content to long videos. Simply input a sentence, and users can generate a three-minute short film, with the AI automatically completing the entire process, including plot design, character setting, scene building, shot scheduling, and background music. Additionally, the assistant integrates creative features such as "write a song in one sentence" and "MV creation," offering over 30 special effect templates to make creation easier and more fun.

On the technical side, Baidu's self-developed "Steam Engine" model has made significant breakthroughs in real-time interactive AI video generation, breaking through the traditional 10-second limit for AI videos for the first time and achieving "unlimited duration" generation. Users just need to upload an image and input a prompt, and they can preview the generated content in real time, pausing or modifying it at any time. This "two-way co-creation" capability has ushered AI video creation into a new stage.

Additionally, the Wenxin Assistant has introduced two new features: interactive digital humans and open-world dynamic construction. Digital humans can engage in bidirectional immersive interactions, suitable for scenarios such as shopping guidance, education, and companionship. The open world allows users to freely explore AI-generated virtual spaces, expanding the application potential of AIGC in the integration of real and virtual worlds.

This series of upgrades and innovations has undoubtedly made the Wenxin Assistant one of the most powerful AI creation tools available today. We look forward to it bringing endless creative possibilities to more users in the future.
