• [TechNode Global] Alibaba Opens Wan3.0 Public Beta for 30-Second Multimodal Video Generation ↗

  Alibaba has opened Wan3.0 in public beta with support for generating AI video clips up to 30 seconds long. The system can take text, images, video, audio, webpages, PDFs, and PowerPoint files as inputs, according to the company. That gives creators a more direct path from scripts, reference materials, or campaign decks to first-cut video concepts. China's video-generation race is moving beyond model capability alone and into the production workflow around previsualization, marketing assets, and creator tooling.

  ByteDance Seed introduced SeedRealtime, a native audio-visual full-duplex LLM designed to watch, listen, and speak in one model. It processes audio, video, and text together while aiming to keep responding during a live exchange rather than waiting for a single-turn prompt to finish. The format points toward live broadcast assistants, interactive characters, and video-based creator tools rather than conventional chatbots. For media services, responsiveness and conversational rhythm are becoming part of the product race alongside generation quality.

• [Variety] Suno Adds Download Caps to Curb Large-Scale Abuse and Redistribution of AI Music ↗

  Suno is adding download limits across free and paid tiers as it tries to reduce large-scale abuse of AI-generated music. The company is not blocking generation outright; it is restricting the path from mass creation to downloaded files that can be redistributed or cloned elsewhere. AI music platforms can serve as fast creation tools and as channels for rights abuse or spam-like catalog flooding. The change shows generative music services looking for a balance between usage growth and tighter platform control.
