At a recent video cloud technology conference, Volcano Engine unveiled a significant innovation: a video preprocessing solution for large model training. This technology has been successfully applied to the Doubao video generation model, marking a significant advancement in AI video generation technology. Volcano Engine's President, Tan Dai, emphasized that AIGC and multimodal technology are profoundly changing user experience. Leveraging experience from Douyin, Volcano Engine is actively exploring the integration of AI large models with video technology to provide comprehensive solutions for enterprises. Wang Yue, Head of Video Architecture at Douyin Group, pointed out that large model training faces numerous challenges.

Recently, OpenAI has caused a stir in the video AI field as they are set to make significant upgrades to Sora, which was released in February of this year. According to reports from the Information Daily, the main goal of this upgrade is to significantly enhance Sora's performance, enabling it to generate longer and higher quality video content more quickly. Reflecting on the initial performance of Sora, there were indeed many pressing issues that needed addressing. The original version took over 10 minutes to generate a video, an efficiency level that clearly fails to meet practical application needs.

At the 2024 Volcano Engine AI Innovation Roadshow, Volcano Engine President Tan Dai unveiled the latest Doubao · Video Generation Model. This model incorporates several advanced technologies, including the efficient DIT Fusion Computing Unit, which enables deep compression encoding of video and text; it also employs a novel diffusion model training approach to ensure consistency in generating multi-camera videos; in addition, the model integrates a deeply optimized Transformer architecture, significantly enhancing the generalization ability of video generation.
