On April 16th, the Create 2024 Baidu AI Developer Conference was held in Shenzhen, and Baidu Wenku announced the comprehensive launch of the "Smart Comics" and "Smart Picture Book" functions. At present, Baidu Wenku claims that two features have been fully launched for public testing.
It is reported that in August last year, under the derivative of the big model, Baidu Wenku was adjusted to a "one-stop AI content creation platform". It has released various AI capabilities such as PPT generation, document generation, mind map generation, research report generation, photo creation, and full scene instruction editing, and has also made efforts in the field of cross modal content creation. The launch of the "Smart Manga" and "Smart Picture Book" functions is a further extension of AI content creation.
According to Baidu Wenku, users only need "one sentence" to achieve "minute level" creation, connecting the entire creative path from "creative inspiration" to "content generation". At the same time, users can also earn profits through publishing, sharing, and part-time jobs. Meanwhile, in family education, parents can also use "smart picture books" for exclusive story creation.
In addition, Baidu Wenku announced a cooperation with animation production and operation enterprise Xuanji Technology to create intelligent comic solutions, and to create more AI based new Chinese comic IPs in cross modal technology, content, and IP co creation.
It is understood that there are still certain pain points in the industry in "AI drawing comics". Many AI comic creation tools often can only generate single and four grid images, and there is still room for improvement in scene correlation, character consistency, and plot reproduction. There are also some degree of visual flaws, which can usually be remedied through a large amount of post production work.
In addition, Baidu Wenku's "Intelligent Picture Book" is about to launch a dubbing function, greatly improving the sound fidelity and environmental integration of picture book readings.
