Week 20 2025 AI releases.

Vision & Image (1)

  • Stitch

    Google · Text-to-Image

    Stitch is an AI-powered design tool that enables users to create visual content by leveraging generative AI capabilities integrated into a design interface. It streamlines the design workflow by combining traditional design tools with AI-assisted generation and editing features.

Video & Animation (2)

  • EX-4D

    Pico, Bytedance · Text-to-Video

    A novel framework for generating camera-controllable 360° videos from monocular input using Depth Watertight Mesh representation to handle extreme viewpoints and occlusions. Employs a lightweight LoRA-based video diffusion adapter trained on simulated multi-view data without requiring paired datasets.

  • LongAnimation

    USTC, HKUST · Video Editing

    A framework for long-term animation colorization using a Dynamic Global-Local Memory module that maintains color consistency across 500+ frame sequences by dynamically extracting and fusing global historical features with local generation features. Includes SketchDiT architecture, color consistency rewards, and supports text-guided creative background generation.

Agents & Automation (3)

  • Workflow Use

    browser-use · Web Agents

    A framework for building browser automation workflows using AI agents. Enables programmatic control of web browsers through natural language or structured task definitions.

  • AI Hedge Fund

    virattt · Agent Framework

    An open-source framework for building autonomous AI agents that perform financial analysis and portfolio management using multi-agent orchestration and LLM-based decision making.

  • Project Astra
