Traditional video understanding models face numerous challenges when processing long videos, including the complexities of understanding the extended context. Although considerable research has been conducted to enhance video understanding capabilities, effectively overcoming the issues of low training and inference efficiency remains difficult. To address these challenges, the research team utilized HiCo technology to compress redundant parts of video information, significantly reducing computational demands while retaining key information. Specifically, HiCo achieves hierarchical compression of the video by segmenting long videos into shorter clips, thereby reducing processing time.

Recently, Meitu announced that its WHEE application will soon launch a brand new 'AI Poster' feature, designed to simplify the poster creation process through artificial intelligence technology, providing users with an efficient and convenient design experience. In traditional poster creation, users often spend a lot of time and effort searching for inspiration, gathering materials, and repeatedly adjusting layouts. However, the 'AI Poster' feature of Meitu WHEE will completely change this situation. Users will only need to input a simple sentence to easily generate posters in various styles.

Recently, Doubao Company announced the launch of its new real-time voice large model, claiming to achieve a "cliff-like lead" in Chinese dialogue, marking a significant enhancement in AI conversational capabilities. This model is fully available in the Doubao App (version 7.2.0 New Year Edition), providing users with a richer and more authentic voice communication experience. According to reports, Doubao's real-time voice large model has achieved a deep integration of speech understanding and generation, forming an end-to-end voice dialogue system. This technological breakthrough allows the model to excel in vocal expressiveness, control, and emotion.

Recently, Meitu Inc. launched a new feature for its image generation tool WHEE, which now supports the creation of Chinese posters. WHEE is renowned for its high-quality material generation, and this upgrade further enhances user experience and functional diversity. The AI poster generation feature of WHEE allows users to flexibly handle text layout. Due to the randomness and uncontrollable font styles present in traditional AI text layout, Meitu has innovatively made the text an editable independent layer. Users can not only drag freely

Recently, ByteDance launched an AI integrated development environment (IDE) called Trae, aimed specifically at Chinese developers. This product is designed to compete with internationally renowned tools such as Cursor and Windsurf, particularly focusing on the user experience of Chinese developers. In their daily programming, many developers often need to switch between English and Chinese. This mixed-language working mode, while common, poses inconveniences for many Chinese developers. Existing IDEs such as

According to reports, the U.S. Department of Commerce has added Zhipu AI to its entity list for export controls, accusing it of promoting China's military modernization and infringing on U.S. national security and diplomatic interests. ** This decision makes Zhipu AI the first Chinese large model company to be added to the U.S. entity list, marking a new round of suppression by the U.S. on China's artificial intelligence industry. Zhipu AI subsequently issued a statement emphasizing that the company is based on technology transfer from Tsinghua University and provided a detailed review of its technological development history. Zhipu AI started developing the GLM pre-training architecture in 2020 and launched it in 2022.

In a recently published report, CITIC Securities analyzed the development prospects of the Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) industry, believing that in the next 1-2 years, this field will bring good excess returns. The report mentioned that the recent announcement by OpenAI to transform its profit-making company into a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) has attracted significant attention from the capital market and industry. Image source note: The image was generated by AI, and the image authorization service provider is Midjourney. In the past, OpenAI operated under a model controlled by a 'non-profit organization'.

An innovative point cloud compression technology (TSC-PCAC) developed by a joint team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Tongji University, and Ningbo University has achieved a significant breakthrough. This technology not only greatly improves the compression efficiency of point cloud data but also significantly reduces processing time, clearing technical obstacles for the development of 3D applications like AR/VR. In the context of the rapid advancement of 3D vision technology, point clouds, as a key data format for virtual and augmented reality, face tremendous transmission and storage challenges. A high-quality point cloud can contain millions of data points, with each point...

The Ministry of Education recently announced that the expert committee of the inter-ministerial joint conference on foreign language Chinese translation standards has reviewed and approved the 16th batch of 18 groups of recommended Chinese translations for foreign terms. These translations primarily relate to the fields of artificial intelligence and information technology. This initiative aims to standardize the new terms that frequently appear in the AI field, providing the public with clear official explanations to eliminate confusion.

Kunlun Wanwei Technology Co., Ltd. announced the official launch of invitation testing for its 'Tiangong Large Model 4.0' o1 version (Skywork o1).
