From Digital Avatars to AI Agents: GD Culture Group to Expand Its AI Frontier with GPT-4-Powered AI Agent

 

NEW YORK, Nov. 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GD Culture Group Limited (“GDC” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: GDC), a Nevada holding company currently conducting business through its subsidiary, AI Catalysis Corp. (“AI Catalysis”), today announced its pioneering plan to enhance its digital avatar offerings with OpenAI’s GPT-4, transforming them into advanced AI agents capable of goal-oriented tasks and interactive communication.

 

By harnessing the power of OpenAI GPT-4, the AI agents will provide users with highly interactive and personalized experiences. Evolved from the Company’s existing digital avatars, these AI agents will transcend visually appealing entities to become highly functional and customized AI-powered assistants, each possessing a unique character. Thirty digital avatars will undergo training on the GPT-4 model, equipping them with the cognitive capability to interact in real time, delivering intelligent, contextually relevant, and emotionally resonant responses. The animations and voices of the AI agents will seamlessly synchronize with the language output, creating a lifelike and immersive interaction.

 

Mr. Xiaojian Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “We’re delighted to announce our strategic plan to elevate our digital avatars into AI agents. Leveraging GPT-4’s capabilities, our product will not only entertain but also provide incredible resourcefulness. Digital avatars have been highly successful as our AI-driven offering on TikTok and integrating them with the latest AI technology will propel their intelligence and interactivity to the next level. The upgraded product will cater to diverse markets, including social media, virtual assistance, education, and brand representation. This move demonstrates our ongoing commitment to innovation and our capacity to lead the industry amid changing dynamics. Moving forward, we will continue exploring the frontiers of AI technology to strengthen our market competitiveness. We believe that upgrading our offerings will enhance our market presence and create greater value for our shareholders.

Exhibit 99.2

 

GD Culture Group’s Portfolio Company DigiTrax Unveils New AI Music Training Model License
for Publishers, Composers, Producers, and Beatmakers

 

NEW YORK, December 1, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GD Culture Group Limited (“GDC” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: GDC), a Nevada holding company conducting business through its subsidiary AI Catalysis Corp. (“AI Catalysis”), today announced that its portfolio company, DigiTrax Entertainment, Inc., (“DigiTrax”), a music company at the forefront of transforming the music industry by pioneering the use of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, unveiled new AI Music Training Model License offered in its patented AI platform KR38R LAB’s Artist and Label Services. This license is exclusively available to music publishers, composers, producers, and beatmakers.

 

The AI Music Training Model License unlocks innovative AI-driven creative possibilities. Grounded in DigiTrax’s seven patented AI-powered music composition technologies and solid music theory foundations, KR38R LAB utilizes abstract music theory data extracted from composition analysis to generate music theory data block templates that encapsulate each composer’s unique style. Once an agreement is signed between DigiTrax and artists, the 'Artist Authorized' AI Training Template is generated by KR38R LAB under this license. These templates serve as foundational elements for music creation, allowing new music creators to remix and utilize them in KR38R PRO or other production tools, fostering diverse sonic landscapes. The authorized templates are accessible for purchase as downloadable content (DLC) through StudioPacks, SoundPacks, and MixPacks via the KR38R Marketplace.

 

The AI Training Model License framework aims to empower artists by enhancing their compatibility with the AI technology. DigiTrax AI technology transcends traditional neural network approaches to uphold copyright standards, and enable artists to monetize their works. Original composers are entitled to a 50% pro-rata publishing share in the ownership of the resulting intellectual properties.

 

Mr. Xiaojian Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company expressed, “The launch of KR38R LAB underscores GDC’s ongoing commitment to advancing AI technology and its practical applications. We recognize that AI plays a major role in shaping the digital future and are dedicated to pioneering in this evolving field. Our goal is to contribute to the industry by creating solutions that are both innovative and applicable in real-world scenarios. We strive to make AI technology relevant and beneficial to stakeholders across various industries, while creating value for our shareholders.”
