MEET48’s New Generation AI Creation Tool SRMBuildor Drives the Transformation of the Idol Industry


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 19 July 2024 – The MEET48 team has unveiled their latest masterpiece, SRMBuildor, a PC-based metaverse tool brimming with creative features. With the virtual character editor, you can sculpt your character’s facial features precisely using a customized facial modeling system. The custom skin tone options offer a spectrum of colors, while the stylized makeup presets range from everyday looks to party and stage-ready styles, allowing effortless aesthetic changes. The non-human character feature opens up a world of possibilities, enabling the creation of virtual characters with unconventional bodies and offering more customization and creativity.

Picture this: meticulously dressed virtual characters that we can change their outfits, create their own dance routines, music, and scenarios, and deliver a mesmerizing group performance with a click… The AIGC market is in full bloom and the videography industry is also being revolutionized by AI technology. Among the products, three stand out from the crowd: SRMBuildor, IdolGPT, and a well-known similar AI tool on the market.

Additionally, the real-time motion preview function ensures that the final motion of the virtual character and stage is natural and smooth, while the cloud storage function allows you to access and share your virtual characters anytime, anywhere.

IdolGPT: An Easy-to-Use Creator for Virtual Characters
MEET48’s mobile AIGC tool, IdolGPT, leverages the multi-modal AI-LLM “Paro” to generate singing and dancing AI virtual characters from photos. By harnessing the power of deep learning, IdolGPT simulates the human creation process, enabling you to craft personalized 3D virtual character models, audio, and dance videos, opening up new realms of artistic expression.

Creating an AI virtual character with IdolGPT is a breeze. Select your basic information, upload a selfie, and with a single click, a personalized 3D virtual image springs to life. You can further design the virtual character’s look with built-in styling options for hairstyles, clothing, and makeup. The Dance Creation feature lets you adjust your preferred song, background, and filter, making your character dance to the rhythm of your choice. The Song Creation feature empowers you to create unique musical works for your virtual character by selecting the voice and background.

A Well-Known Similar AI Tool on the Market: Powerful AI Text-to-Video Generation
The well-known similar AI tool on the market can generate authentic videos up to 60 seconds long based on user text prompts. The model understands how objects exist in the physical world and can deeply simulate reality, generating complex scenes with multiple characters and specific movements. Additionally, it can output high-quality visuals and follow instructions, comprehending user requirements provided in the text prompts. For instance, if you input “a stylish woman walks down a Tokyo street”, it can produce a video up to one minute long with outstanding coherence and realism.

Furthermore, this AI tool can generate videos based on static images, bringing image content to life by focusing on details, resulting in more vivid and realistic generated videos. It can expand or fill in missing frames of existing videos and supports seamlessly connecting two input videos with completely different themes and scene compositions.

Reshape Idol Industry with the Three Products
As we compare these three remarkable products, it becomes evident that the renowned AI tool on the market wields immense power. With just a few short sentences, it can conjure up authentic videos that excel in generalization, promptability, generation quality, and stability.

However, IdolGPT and SRMBuildor have achieved a technological breakthrough, transcending the 2D creation limitations of the well-known AI tool. By harnessing the power of AI, they can directly generate 3D models that align with your unique preferences, granting their AI creations an unparalleled level of expandability. Moreover, IdolGPT and SRMBuildor offer a higher degree of operability, empowering you to quickly and accurately customize every step of the creation process. But what truly sets these two products apart is their deep connection to idol culture and the idol economy. By seamlessly integrating AI technology into users’ UGC creations, they are directly propelling the fan economy into the era of intelligent industry transformation.

SRMBuildor Closed Beta and Summer Creation Contest
With the successful testing of IdolGPT, the stage is set for SRMBuildor to shine. On July 10, SRMBuildor entered its closed beta phase, marking the dawn of the world’s first AI-LLM-supported co-creation MaaS system, focusing on the idol entertainment field. With SRMBuildor’s virtual character editor and music and dance editor, you can unleash your creativity, crafting non-human characters with new music and dances. SRMBuildor provides a rich material library and efficient editing tools, empowering you to create and share your virtual idols. These idols will find their stage in MEET48’s online immersive intelligent social metaverse, featuring scene building, virtual concerts, and dance competitions, among other exciting applications.

It Outages Reported Across Globe as Airlines, Airports, Banks, Media Companies Experience Disruptions

ABC News – IT outages have been reported across the globe as airlines, airports, banks and media companies have suddenly experienced ongoing disruptions that have upended the daily lives of potentially millions of people.

American Airlines, United and Delta have asked the FAA for global ground stop on all flights, according to an alert from the FAA on Friday morning.

However, at approximately 5 am ET, American Airlines issued a statement that they were back up and running as normal.

“Earlier this morning, a technical issue with a vendor impacted multiple carriers, including American. As of 5 am ET, we have been able to safely re-establish our operation. We apologize to our customers for the inconvenience,” the statement read.

The FAA is telling air traffic controllers to tell airborne pilots that airlines are currently experiencing communication issues.

“No one here knows anything, the gate agents said we all know as much as they do,” Scott Sanders told ABC News, saying his flight from SeaTac Airport in Washington was delayed for two hours on the tarmac before passengers were deplaned. “I feel awful for the employees and those that have a sick loved one they need to get to or funerals, thankfully that’s not us.”

Meanwhile, flights in the air will stay in the air, but no American, United or Delta flights have been taking off.

“We’re aware of a technical issue with CrowdStrike that is impacting multiple carriers. American is working with CrowdStrike to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and apologize to our customers for the inconvenience,” American Airlines said in a statement obtained by ABC News.

“A third party software outage is impacting computer systems worldwide, including at United,” United Airlines said in a statement on Friday morning. “While we work to restore those systems, we are holding all aircraft at their departure airports. Flights already airborne are continuing to their destinations.”

It is unclear how widespread the issue is but Melbourne Airport in Australia has also said they are “experiencing a global technology issue” which is impacting their check-in procedures.

Global IT outages have also been reported in many countries across the world including Berlin Airport in Germany, the London Stock Exchange, Google Cloud, Microsoft and Gatwick Airport in the United Kingdom.

“We’re investigating an issue impacting users ability to access various Microsoft 365 apps and services,” Microsoft said in a statement released on social media Friday morning.

Crowdstrike, the U.S. cybersecurity company, has admitted to being responsible for the error and are working to correct it.

“Crowdstrike is aware of reports of crashes on Windows 4 related to the Falcon sensor. Please monitor the status via the tech alert on our customer support portal,” says a message on the Crowdstrike technical help line on Friday morning.
