China's Goku AI challenges OpenAI's Sora in video generation technology

ByteDance has introduced Goku AI, a new artificial intelligence model for image and video generation, challenging OpenAI’s Sora. Goku AI uses advanced technology to create smoother visuals and can generate high-quality content from text prompts. Goku AI is open-source, making it accessible for businesses and startups globally. This raises challenges for regulation, particularly in the U.S., as open-source AI is harder to control. The launch highlights China's growing role in the AI sector, shifting the balance from U.S. dominance. While Goku AI enhances creative possibilities, it also raises concerns about deepfake technology and misinformation. The competition in the AI market is intensifying, with success depending on effective integration of AI into business practices and the ability to manage ethical risks.
