Goku, an advanced model of the one designed for the generation of image and video.
Goku, again an open source alternative to Openai
No fun day for Sam Altman – Elon Musk’s first hostile offer, and now Goku. Bytedance began Goku, an advanced model of his image and video generation. This is another challenge for Openai and governments like the US that aim to provide access to it. However, it also reduces the obstacle for businesses to create value. To capture this value, business managers must prioritize writing to it.
What is Goku?
Goku produces high quality visual from text requirements. It is using corrected flow transformers, a type of model that generates images and video better and accurately by improving the way information flows through the model. Think of him as a high -tech artist who refines his straps to make digital creations look more natural and realistic. The result will be less glitches and less distortions.
Increasing open models like Goku
Goku is an open -source model like Llama, Deepseek. This is good news for many businesses and startups all over the world, but it’s bad news for Openai. While it is clear that having only the best model alone does not provide long -term success. It strengthens that “regulation” model will not work as the US may have foreseen as I have written before: open source software cannot be easily limited by trading barriers.
True value not Goku but is application
It is easy to “create” a “chicken made of fried chicken”. Important focus should be on how to … [+]
Goku, like other models before, is lowering the cost of production. We saw this happened in coding. We saw it in writing. And now, with video. Models like Goku and Sora can generate imaginary content, such as “a chicken made of fried chicken”. However, the real value lies in how businesses integrate and use videos, text and images created by it.
In marketing, we look for the creative director from the Idea Agency. They turn with 20 different. But having creative ideas is not enough – the real challenge is to decide which of the 20 to choose and how to apply them effectively. Our focus will be moved from creation to selection and implementation. He will depend on his practical applications.
Writing -Exation of it is essential
To help integrate it and the generating into every part of a business, companies need to prioritize reading it. A top-down approach will not work, as there is no single application. It will affect every aspect, from marketing and sales to customer experience and production.
Therefore, in the ECORNELL certificate program “Designing and building it solutions”, we explore applications in various industries.

The dangers of the deepfakes
As it reduces the obstacles to the creation of content, abuse is also becoming more likely. Deepfakes-images, videos and audio created by the one designed to imitate real people-are rarely serious risks. Already in 2022, I demonstrated how easily they can create. This increases the risk of misinformation, theft of identity and political manipulation.
With tools like Goku making it easier to produce hyper-realistic content, the responsible use of it and the detection of the deepfak should be priority. Society should become more skeptical of digital content and invest in solutions to identify and counteract counterfeits. Once again, the only effective cure is to invest in writing -to read it.
Goku indicates the growing impact of China on him
Goku’s growth underlines that US predominance in it is no longer provided. Chinese companies are progressing rapidly, emphasizing writing and applying it. To stay competitive, organizations must effectively understand and use these technologies.
Openai, once uncontrolled, now faces fierce competition. Having the best model of it is no longer enough. Sustainable success will depend on the construction of the ecosystems that make the tools accessible, adaptable and valuable in real world scenarios. For this purpose Openai needs money and so Elon Musk’s offer is quite toxic.
The future of it will be formed not only by technological advances like Goku, but by those who can best implement them.
