From May 21st to 25th, the 22nd Shenzhen International Cultural Industries Fair (ICIF) is being held at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center. This year's fair puts a stronger focus on AI-powered innovation, adding an exhibition area dedicated to future AI technologies and an AI Showdown Market. A range of lightweight AI-assisted cultural and creative products is on display, showcasing new energy from the integration of culture and AI.

In the "Guangdong AIPlus" core exhibition area at Hall 15, the "Huaqiangbei Robot Band" created by Haixi Robot drew large crowds. Five AI robots acted as IP ambassadors, performing catwalks, gesture dances, and human-robot interactions with smooth movements that hit the beats, attracting many visitors to stop and take photos.

AI short drama creation has also emerged as one of the exhibition's attractions. At the booth of Sokiz Creative Technology, users could enter keywords into an intelligent creation tool, and the system would rapidly produce short videos with complete narratives and consistent visual styles. 4K Garden, an ultra-high-definition video production company, debuted "Butterfly 3.0", China's first AI tool for enhancing short drama quality. The tool will officially enter public beta testing after the fair.

AI tools are also reshaping game development workflows. 37 Interactive Entertainment showcased its "AI Motion Animator," which replaces traditional frame-by-frame manual animation. By uploading a character image and entering motion commands, users can automatically generate smooth, continuous animation sequences, significantly reducing production costs while improving development efficiency.

A variety of lightweight AI-assisted cultural and creative products have added to the exhibition's appeal. In Hall 13, an AI smart badge allows users to generate graphics, conduct AI conversations and activate interactive lighting effects, while producing personalized chibi characters in just 10 seconds. Other products on display continue to expand the boundaries of cultural consumption, including AR-powered audio commentary fridge magnetsfor cultural relics, smart bookmarksthat generate poems according to different emotions, and AI dollswith customized personalities.

Quwan Technology presented the world's first generative AI guitar. Users only need to hum a melody, and the device automatically creates a complete playable composition. Company representatives said the product lowers the barrier to cultural creation and makes AI-powered creative expression more accessible to the public. Altogether, this year's ICIF offers a vivid glimpse into the growing range of AI applications across the cultural and creative industries.
