According to a company spokesperson, Bond Capital also participated in this investment.

Recent research from Alibaba's Tongyi Laboratory indicates that existing text-to-image Diffusion Transformer models already possess the ability to generate multiple images with specific relational contexts. With just a little 'guidance', they can achieve a synthesis of understanding and produce high-quality multi-image collections. Traditional Diffusion models are more like 'rote learning' students, requiring massive datasets to generate high-quality images. However, with the support of IC-LoRA, they become 'high-achieving students', capable of learning through analogy.

Recently, the image AI startup Recraft released its latest text-generating image model, Recraft v3, which has shown exceptional performance in independent testing, redefining the standards for image generation performance. According to Recraft, the v3 model excels in generating text within images, maintaining anatomical accuracy, understanding prompts, and creating high-quality visual content. Its biggest breakthrough is the ability to accurately present long segments of text in a single generation, while many other models struggle with more than a few words.

On October 31, ByteDance quietly launched an AI model sharing community platform called 'Lumi'. The platform is reported to offer features such as model upload and sharing, workflow building, and LoRA training. It is currently in the internal testing phase and is only accessible to whitelisted users.

Beijing Aishi Technology Co., Ltd. has announced the global release of its latest version of the video generation large model, PixVerse V3. This version has made significant improvements in its underlying model capabilities, offering multimodal generation abilities and a wealth of AI features, including creative templates, lip synchronization, story continuation, and style transformation.

The Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI) recently announced the launch of a brand-new all-in-one visual generation model, OmniGen, marking a significant breakthrough in the field of image generation. The OmniGen model is known for its unification, simplicity, and cross-task knowledge transfer capabilities, allowing it to handle multiple image generation tasks within a single framework, including text-to-image generation, image editing, theme-driven generation, and visual condition generation. Furthermore, OmniGen can also tackle classic computer vision tasks such as image denoising and edge detection.

As the highly anticipated ChatGPT approaches its two-year anniversary, rumors about OpenAI's new flagship model have sparked renewed discussions in the industry. However, this commotion was swiftly clarified by OpenAI's CEO, Altman. The event originated from a report by tech media The Verge, where several insiders suggested that OpenAI might launch the new flagship model "Orion" on November 30, coinciding with ChatGPT's second anniversary. The report also noted that the engineering team at Microsoft Azure has already...

As a new wave of competition arises in the global AI video generation field, Chinese tech company MiniMax's 'Haibao AI' has made a strong impression with its remarkable performance. Data shows that this AI product, which was launched in April of this year, achieved a staggering 867.41% increase in visit volume in September, rapidly becoming the top product in global AI visit growth rankings. The core competitiveness of this product lies in its underlying technological support. MiniMax built Haibao AI based on the trillion-parameter MoE model abab-6.5, allowing it to compete with GPT-4.

Meitu announced that its MiracleVision model has achieved another upgrade in image generation capabilities, marking a further enhancement of its overall strength. At the same time, Meitu introduced a one-stop AI short video creation tool called MOKI, which is expected to gradually cover the product ecosystem under Meitu, providing users with a new visual experience.

Recently, a research team from the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence launched a new image generation model called OmniGen. Unlike previous tools such as Stable Diffusion, which focused on a single task, OmniGen's biggest highlight is its multi-capability: it can handle a variety of image generation tasks within a unified framework, including text-to-image generation and image editing, making it a versatile player. This means that users only need to provide simple prompts.
