Xu L\u00fcyang, from the product operations department of MiniMax, introduced the tool at the Shanghai International Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationobserver.com\/?p=2212\">Adam McKay on Producing the Climate Documentary \u2018Just Look Up\u2019 and Why the Democrats are \u2018Corrupt From Head to Toe\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cWe used to open one AI tool for images, another for video, then others for voiceover, music, and finally a video editor to piece it all together,\u201d Xu said. \u201cNow, we simply tell Hub our goal in natural language, or drop in a PDF proposal, a reference video, or an asset pack. The AI agent within Hub will automatically understand the requirements, break down tasks, select models, execute, and verify quality. We only step in to review and tune at key points. It\u2019s not just a smarter \u2018generate\u2019 button, but a creative partner that knows how to run a project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tCentral to Hub\u2019s design is a human-in-the-loop approach, in which the tool pauses at key decision points rather than operating as a one-click generator. \u201cThe AI agent shouldn\u2019t be a black box, one-click generator. It would pause at every critical decision point for your confirmation. We believe AI should lift the execution burden off human shoulders, but the creative direction and aesthetic judgment must ultimately be left to humans,\u201d Xu said.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHub also includes \u201cSkill\u201d and \u201cMemory\u201d functions that adapt the tool to individual users. \u201cWe can hand over our workflows, aesthetic standards, and prompt engineering expertise to the agent, letting it memorize them so it can execute the tasks on its own next time,\u201d Xu said.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationobserver.com\/?p=2210\">\u2018Devil Wears Prada 2\u2019 Hits $676 Million Globally, Propels Franchise Past $1 Billion Mark<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tPan Yuying, MiniMax Multimodal\u2019s head of video content, demonstrated additional capabilities including document generation across multiple file formats.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMiniMax is collaborating with AI Backlot, Shanghai\u2019s AI work lab, with four creator pairs from this year\u2019s cohort using Hub to produce their short films.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tShanghai-based MiniMax develops multimodal AI models and applications, including the AI character apps Talkie and Xingye and the video generator Hailuo AI.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationobserver.com\/?p=2208\">AEW Partners With \u2018The Last Match: A Pro-Wrestling Rock Experience,\u2019 Show to Debut in West End This Fall<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MiniMax unveiled Hub, a multimodal AI tool combining video, image, voiceover and editing, at Shanghai International Film Festival.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2213,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[1882,882],"class_list":["post-2214","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-film","tag-minimax","tag-shanghai-international-film-festival-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
