What happens when AI moves beyond impressive demos and starts reshaping how we create? At SF Tech Week, Tencent Cloud WAND co-hosted Steal My Workflow with WorkBuddy, closing with our WAND & Friends panel on AI video, creative agents, and world models — featuring Gary Hsu, Gavin Ni (fal), Ben Weinmann (Magnific), and Minh Do (Machine Cinema). Three takeaways: 🔹 No one-size-fits-all model — creators combine models by creative goals, quality, and budget. 🔹 Creative agents automate repetitive production, so creators focus on creative direction. 🔹 Real-time video, persistent 3D, and world models go beyond generation — the challenge is telling new stories with them. We also showcased our AI media capabilities, from Hunyuan image and world models to WAND-EraseVibe+, WAND-Enhance+, WAND-Codec+. 👉 Explore Tencent Cloud WAND: wand.tencentcloud.com/ #SFTechWeek #TencentCloud #TencentCloudWAND #WAND #GenerativeAI #AIVideo #CreativeAI

How should enterprises choose between bare metal and managed inference? At NeoCloud Summit in San Francisco, Anderson Lin, General Manager of Tencent Cloud Americas, joined the panel “Inferencing + Bare Metal: What Inference Providers Actually Look for in a GPU Partner” to share the enterprise perspective. His key point: not every token needs the same GPU resources. Enterprises need: · The right compute for each workload · Dependable, consistent performance · A clear link between token spend and business outcomes That’s the thinking behind Tencent Cloud’s TokenHub, which gives enterprises access to multiple AI models through a single unified API so teams can match the right model to each task. Thank you to IGNITE GTM for organizing for a great discussion. #NeoCloudSummit #AIInference #GPU #TencentCloud #EnterpriseAI

Agent Champion! Starlight Realm Reshapes Content Production with End-to-End AI Comic Canvas At the 2026 Tencent Cloud Hackathon Global Finals , Starlight Realm won the Agent Track first prize with their Intelligent Creation Platform. Born from the team's long observation of the comic industry, the platform tackles fragmented production workflows where scripts, storyboarding, character design and video output require multiple people and tools to coordinate back and forth. The team built one canvas to connect the entire pipeline — integrating script writing, character setting, storyboard generation and video synthesis into a single workbench. Using WorkBuddy, they turned client review feedback into custom Skills — one revision teaches the system forever, making it smarter with each use. Pilot results: ~100 episodes from 2 people in 5 days, 30%–40% lower per-video cost, over 60% lower total production cost. No coding required — just dare to imagine, and AI makes it real. #TencentCloudHackathon #Hackathon #AgentTrack #WorkBuddy #AIComicDrama #FullChainCreation

Dual Agent Champion: Singapore Brothers Redraw Psychiatric Recovery with AI At the 2026 Tencent Cloud Hackathon Global Finals on Shenzhen Penguin Island, Singapore team ZNL won both the Agent Track first prize and the Best International Award with Psych-MAP. Built from a therapist's frontline pain point, the system uses RFID wristbands to turn spatial trails—bed rest, toileting, showering—into recovery proxies, and uses CodeBuddy to learn senior-clinician questioning, proactively surfacing information junior doctors may miss. It aggregates clinical records with behavioral data while keeping humans as the final decision-maker, forming a human-AI collaborative loop. A non-technical therapist can turn domain expertise into a clinic-ready psychiatric agent. #TencentCloudHackathon #Hackathon #AgentTrack #CodeBuddy #WorkBuddy #PsychiatricAI #TechforGood #AIforGood #Singapore
