Why Can a Video Launch at a Book Fair Herald the Next Battleground for Tech Giants?

Simple answer: because the definition of ‘content’ is being rewritten by AI and hardware. Traditional books and videos are static finished products; future content will be dynamic, interactive, ’experiences’ that respond to users in real-time and evolve on their own. As a global bellwether for children’s content, the technological forms embraced by the Bologna Book Fair directly point to the next fertile ground for tech companies vying for user attention and data—the home and education scenarios.

The significance behind the launched ‘Diplomatic Memoirs’ video series is that it likely utilizes multimodal AI models. From generating animated scenes from historical archive photos and text records, to AI voice cloning recreating historical figures’ voices, even adjusting narrative complexity and subtitles in real-time based on the viewer’s age and language background. This is no longer mere film production; it is an AI-driven Content-as-a-Service system. Tech giants like Apple, Google, and Meta have long been laying the groundwork here: Apple’s Vision Pro needs killer immersive educational content; Google’s Gemini model needs to land in high-traffic scenarios like YouTube Kids; Meta’s Quest craves applications beyond gaming. Children’s and educational content, with its high demand for interaction and clear learning objectives, has become the perfect testing ground to refine these AI and hardware capabilities.
