‘Kling’, a video creation artificial intelligence (AI) from China, can be attracting great attention on American social media. Particularly, unlike OpenAI’s ‘Sora’, it is understood that it has been released to the general public, and Americans are also in search of ways to make use of it.
Enterprise Beat announced on the twelfth (local time) that various options are being discussed on social media as a consequence of people wanting to make use of China’s newly released Kwaishou Clink.
Through sample videos released on SNS, many users are evaluating that it’s a superior product to existing video creation AI powerhouses ‘Pica’ and ‘Runway’, in addition to Open AI’s Sora.
What sets it apart is that while Sora can create videos which can be roughly 1 minute long, Clink can create videos which can be as much as 2 minutes long. Moreover, Clink can create high-resolution video at 30 frames per second and 1080p. It is a big improvement in comparison with the Picana runway.
Particularly, some users who had already obtained testing permission created and uploaded a video comparing it to Sora’s video.
A representative example is the parody of ‘Air Head’, which became famous among the many conch creation videos. The Cling video, which has similarities to the one produced by creative agency Shy Kids with Sora, was evaluated as “The scene composition and movement are good, so it doesn’t appear to be it has fallen on Sora.”

Users evaluated Clink as suitable for making a big selection of immersive, realistic, and detailed videos in high resolution, from realistic motion scenes. Like Sora, Cling also has an excellent understanding of physical movements and movements. So physical interactions between objects may be more accurately simulated.

Dustin Hollywood, an American film director, posted a video made with Clink on “We’re having difficulty accurately depicting skin color.”
Cling is currently providing videos as a public demo only in China, so as of waiting list, ahead of release. Nonetheless, it is alleged that it would be released in overseas countries within the near future.
The Clink website is in Chinese, and you’ll have a Chinese phone number to register to observe demo videos. Because of this, Americans are debating whether it’s valid to enter an American phone number and whether there are other ways to enroll. Probably the most common request is, “Please officially launch it within the U.S. quickly.”
To get on the waiting list, download the ‘Quaicut’ app and follow the steps displayed on the official ‘Cling AI’ website. You too can access it without spending a dime through Kuaishou or Kuai App.
Kuaishou is the second largest short clip platform company in China after TikTok. There are 400 million each day energetic users.
As such, it’s identified that the launch of Clink can have a big impact on existing video creation AI comparable to Sora, Pica, and Runway.
Particularly, it seems that questions on the delay in the discharge of Open AI, in addition to the re-evaluation of Sora, are in full swing.
