Chinese Kling Emerges as a Rival to Sora

Chinese Kling Emerges as a Rival to Sora

On July 24, the AI model Kling for video generation by Chinese developer Kuaishou became available worldwide. 

The neural network was initially launched earlier this year for users with a Chinese phone number, and it is now open to everyone. 

Registration is available via email. After registering, users can employ prompts to generate five-second videos. Without a paid subscription, 66 daily credits are available for creating videos.

Kling offers three resolutions: square format 960×960, landscape mode 720p, and portrait 720p. The video creation process takes about one to two minutes. The AI does not respond to some queries related to Chinese politics.

Users can adjust the balance between creativity and relevance. Increasing the first parameter results in more creative and visually striking videos, while the second ensures stricter adherence to the prompt.

Future plans include expanding the service’s functionality, adding a high-quality mode, and improving generation time.

Interest in AI models for video generation based on prompts arose after the launch of Sora by OpenAI in February. It can generate videos up to 60 seconds long with resolutions up to 1080p based on simple text prompts, but it remains unavailable to the general public. 

In March, OpenAI granted early access to Sora to members of the entertainment industry. 

Earlier, Toys “R” Us created an advertisement using Sora and faced a wave of criticism. 

Previously, writer and director Paul Trillo generated a music video using OpenAI’s AI.
