According to reports, 01.AI, an AI company founded by Li Kaifu, Chairman and CEO of Innovation Works, has released its first open-source bilingual model, Yi. 01.AI has completed a new round of financing led by Aliyun. Currently, the valuation of 01.AI has exceeded US$1 billion, making it a unicorn company. On November 2, Yi quietly uploaded two basic models with parameter scales of 6B and 34B on the Hugging Face platform. As of November 5, Yi-34B has climbed to the top of the Hugging Face LLM Leaderboard (pretrained) and the C-Eval Chinese model list. Yi currently has a context window of around 200K and can process about 400,000 words of text, which is currently the longest context window among large models worldwide. At the same time, through the polishing of AIInfra, the training cost of Yi-34B has been reduced by 40%. Due to the low quality of Chinese language materials, the proportion of English and Chinese language materials in Yi's training data is currently higher than that of Chinese language materials.

Shutterstock has integrated a new generative AI tool called Creative AI into its library of over 700 million images, allowing users to create customized AI-generated works that are appropriately licensed. The tool leverages technology developed by OpenAI, allowing users to generate new images and edit and change images already in the Shutterstock library. New features in Creative AI include Magic Brush, variations, and image expansion. While Creative AI is free to use, users will need a subscription plan to purchase the final image.

Fashion enthusiast Colby Mugrabi is set to launch a new clothing line called Mmerch next year, which will incorporate AI and blockchain technologies to create unique, tech-savvy hoodies. The line will feature 960 limited-edition hoodies with six key components, ten contrasting prints, and two materials, all crafted through the use of generative algorithms. Each hoodie will be connected to a non-fungible collectible, granting access to a physical version for everyday wear, and will come equipped with a QR code that acts as a gateway to an NFC chip. The line aims to offer fashion items with extra value that extends beyond the point of purchase, setting a high standard during a time when economies of scale confine conventional manufacturing workflows.
