BAAI's Emu3 published in Nature, first Chinese-led large model paper there

The Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI) published its Emu3 multimodal large model research in Nature, which the post describes as the first large-model achievement led by a Chinese research institution in that journal.

Emu3 learns from text, image, and video at scale using next-token prediction alone, reaching generation and perception performance comparable to task-specific methods. The authors frame this as a step toward scalable, unified multimodal intelligence systems.
