Meet China’s Newest AI News Anchor — AI Daily


Chinese state news agency Xinhua has recently revealed its most recent venture into artificial intelligence: Xin Xiaowei – an AI-powered 3D news anchor.

The 3D anchor was jointly developed by Sogou, a tech company that focuses on web search, and Xinhua. In a video that shows Xin Xiawoei speaking, it says that it utilises “multi-modal recognition and synthesis, facial recognition and animation and transfer learning” to recreate Zhao Wanwei, a human reporter for Xinhua. Sogou also claims that these AI algorithms allow Xin Xiaowei to “intelligently imitate human voices, facial expressions, lip movements and mannerisms.” The AI anchor will give viewers a “refreshing news broadcasting style” and uses “cutting-edge algorithms and high-fidelity 3D technologies” to create a “seamless experience for viewers”.
