CICC: Video generation is about to reach a turning point, and the growth track is welcoming China's opportunities

A CICC research report indicates that OpenAI's release of Sora in 2024 will usher in a new era of video generation, ushering in the convergence of DiT technology paths and the beginning of the commercialization of video generation. By 2025, video generation will have seen significant improvements in aesthetic quality, character consistency, clarity, and efficiency. Video generation has already begun to enter film, television, e-commerce, and advertising as a productivity tool, with companies establishing early business models based on vertical SaaS subscription models.

OpenAI releases ChatGPT Study late at night: free AI tutor

At 1 a.m. today, OpenAI released the ChatGPT Study learning mode. This mode is primarily aimed at the education sector and offers four methods: interactive prompts, scaffolded responses, personalized education, and knowledge point checking. It can deeply interpret the thinking and process behind each difficult problem, rather than simply providing an answer. In other words, ChatGPT Study is equivalent to a 24-hour online tutor, providing personalized guidance and feedback based on students' learning progress and needs. It not only helps students understand complex concepts, but also cultivates their critical thinking and autonomous learning abilities through step-by-step guidance. It's worth mentioning that OpenAI also offers a Study learning mode in the free version of ChatGPT.

Sam Altman: User conversations with ChatGPT are not currently legally confidential

On July 24th, local time, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman talked about artificial intelligence and legal regulation in a podcast, saying that artificial intelligence needs a legal system or policy framework. He said that users' conversations with ChatGPT are not currently legally confidential. Altman said this could raise user privacy issues in litigation because OpenAI is currently required by law to provide records of these conversations. "I think this is very bad, and I think conversations with AI should enjoy the same privacy protection as consulting a therapist - and no one would have even thought of this issue a year ago," Altman said.

OpenAI prepares to launch GPT-5 in August

Earlier this year, Microsoft engineers were preparing server capacity for OpenAI's next-generation GPT-5 model, which was expected to be available as early as the end of May. After some additional testing and delays, sources familiar with OpenAI's plans say GPT-5 is now expected to be released as early as next month. OpenAI founder Sam Altman recently revealed at X that "we will be releasing GPT-5 very soon" and even demonstrated some features on a podcast with Theo Von earlier this week. Earlier this year, Altman called GPT-5 "a system that integrates many of our technologies" because it will include o3 reasoning capabilities rather than being presented as a separate model. This is part of OpenAI's ongoing efforts to simplify and consolidate its large language models with the goal of building a more capable system that will ultimately achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI).
