Kling AI / 可灵 AI

Kling AI, called 可灵 AI in the source, is Kuaishou’s AI video product in 咖啡豆｜传统美食广场接连闭店，「大食代们」遇到哪些发展阻碍？. The episode says its revenue grew more than 200%, making it a visible commercialization signal for video models.

The same source treats the signal cautiously. Model training and R&D spending rose enough to weigh on Kuaishou’s profitability, while ByteDance and MiniMax were also releasing new video-generation models. Kling therefore represents both a revenue lane and an inference and training cost pressure point.
