Recently, HiDream.ai has been honored the Best Demo at the 33rd ACM International Conference on Multimedia ACM MM 2025, thus becoming the first Chinese startup team in multimodal generative AI to claim this honor-underscoring the companys top-tier research prowess and exceptional innovation capabilities in this field. The prestigious award recognizes the companys revolutionary unified multimodal agent-HiDream-Agent, a pioneering agent that transforms complex visual content creation into an intuitive conversational experience.
ACM MM, organized by the Special Interest Group on Multimedia SIGMM of the Association for Computing Machinery ACM, is the top-tier academic event in the global multimedia field. Dedicated to advancing research innovation and industrial application of multimedia technologies, it is widely regarded as one of the most authoritative and influential conferences in the industry, attracting leading scholars and tech giants worldwide. The Best Demo symbolizes both the high international recognition of the research outcomes and the research teams outstanding competence in multimedia technology innovation and application.
HiDream-Agents core strength lies in breaking the limitations of fragmented multimodal tools. It seamlessly integrates text-to-image generation, instruction-based image editing, and text/image-to-video generation within a single interface, effectively addressing the industry-wide challenge of cross-modal semantic alignment. Built on the 17-billion-parameter HiDream-I1 model, featuring a sparse Diffusion Transformer DiT structure and dynamic Mixture-of-Experts MoE design, it delivers exceptional performance on international benchmarks like HPS and GenEval. For instruction-based image editing, the team optimized HiDream-I1 with robust in-context visual conditioning, enabling precise image modifications.
