Former Tencent AI chief says LLMs cannot beat U.S., points to AI video as next battleground

Concern is growing within China’s AI industry about its competitiveness in large language models, with some firms seeking a breakthrough in video-generation AI. Liu Wei, who led Tencent’s Hunyuan generative AI model team, cited a lack of paradigm innovation and said Chinese companies are copying U.S. approaches in core technologies. He estimated the U.S.-China gap at at least 3 months and warned it could widen to 6 months this year.

AI reshapes media from production to distribution

Media companies are expanding experiments using AI, with a focus on cutting production costs, developing new genres and improving user experience. Video tools now generate longer 4K content with audio and better character consistency. Broadcasters and studios are testing AI in election coverage, animation and drama, while China pushes commercialisation. In distribution, recommendation algorithms and AI dubbing are becoming core infrastructure. The shift is also raising concerns over copyright, creator protection and review standards.

Alibaba launched three proprietary models this week that are accessible only via its cloud and chatbot site. The company cited relatively weaker developer interest in its Omni series on Hugging Face. Zhipu AI said customers are shifting from self-hosting to cloud APIs.
