Digital people lead the audience "from Yan'an to Shanghai", "New Shanghai · Ten Days" special exhibition
Many viewers found that at the recent "New Shanghai · Ten Days" special exhibition held by the Liberation Daily, the newspaper's chief reporter Guo Quanzhen transformed into a digital person and told the audience on the screen the historical footprint of the Liberation Daily "from Yan'an to Shanghai":
On May 16, 1941, the Liberation Daily was founded. Mao Zedong personally wrote the title and the inaugural remarks. On April 1, 1942, the Liberation Daily was revised, with the working people appearing on the front page, setting a precedent in the history of journalism. On March 27, 1947, the Liberation Daily ceased publication amid the war. On April 24, 1949, the Party Central Committee decided to hand over the title of the Liberation Daily to Shanghai. On May 28 of the same year, the Liberation Daily was re-founded in Shanghai, becoming the official newspaper of the East China Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and the official newspaper of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the CPC.
"The digital person's narrative tone not only matches the tone and intonation of the physical person, but also adds a sense of technology and the future, making the historical narrative more three-dimensional," said an audience at the exhibition.
It is reported that the digital human image for this exhibition is provided by the Ant Lingjing Digital Human Platform, which mainly uses technologies such as virtual image drive, dynamic neural radiation field and pre-trained speech synthesis, and can "replicate" the AI anchor with only 5 minutes of video data.
Ant Lingjing Digital Human Platform is a virtual human product platform developed by using the latest AI virtual human technology, combined with core technologies such as speech recognition, semantic understanding, speech synthesis, dialogue interaction, and virtual image drive. It uses real people, cartoons, and realistic virtual humans to interact with text, voice, video, card clicks, and other methods. This platform aims to reduce content production costs, improve operation and business conversion efficiency, and bring a new visual and interactive experience to ordinary users.
At present, Ant Group has completed the self-developed layout of the core technology of the entire chain of digital humans, and has chosen the development direction of combining with generative AI. From the perspective of technical deployment, it covers the entire life cycle of digital human modeling, rendering, driving, and interaction, and fully combines AIGC with large models to reduce the production cost of digital humans throughout the entire chain.
Ant Lingjing Digital Human Platform has helped the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games to create a "Digital Torchbearer" relay event with the participation of over 100 million netizens. Through its self-developed 3D engine, it can run smoothly on 97% of mobile devices. In addition, the Lingjing Digital Human Platform also helps digital humans in other fields and is committed to solving problems encountered by the public in their daily lives. The dynamic neural rendering method DynTet and the digital human motion generation model technology developed by the Ant Lingjing Digital Human Platform have also been included in the international artificial intelligence top conference CVPR24, and its technological leadership has been authoritatively recognized.
During this year's two sessions, CCTV Finance New Media, with the technical support of the Ant Lingjing Digital Human Platform, "reproduced" AI anchors - Xiaodong and Xiaotian, based on CCTV hosts Meng Zhandong and Guo Ruotian. During the two sessions, Xiaodong and Xiaotian answered questions from users in the fields of economy, industry, tourism, etc. 24 hours a day, achieving "all-day online, real-life image, real-time answers", bringing a new visual and interactive experience.
At the 7th Digital China Summit in 2024, the organizing committee of the summit joined hands with Alipay to create the "Digital Summit" Alipay applet and digital human commentator through AI, digital human and other technologies. The public can call up the AI exhibition service digital human in the applet, interact with the digital human through the visible and audible broadcasting form, experience the new interaction and feel the service warmth of the summit.
