On July 16, AIBase found that the full-modal AI assistant "Lingguang App" under Ant Group has upgraded the "Lingguang Circle" section of its instant application community version. The new version not only introduced features such as the "Hot List," "Editor's Selections," and "Follow Creators," but also opened up file upload and application generation permissions for multi-modal files like documents and images on the PC end. Users can now generate intelligent Q&A or create AI applications based on local files, greatly improving the efficiency of AI application discovery and the creative experience.

According to the information, Lingguang Circle is an AI application creation community open to users by Lingguang App. Users can generate lightweight and interactive "instant applications" through text or voice conversations and then publish, use, save, comment, and re-create them within the Lingguang Circle community. As the number of applications in the community continues to grow, how to efficiently help users discover high-quality applications has become a new challenge for the community's development. This upgrade focuses on three dimensions: content discovery, creator connections, and application creation.

To address the issue of content discovery, Lingguang Circle has introduced two new features: the "Hot List" and "Editor's Selections." The "Hot List" comprehensively ranks popular applications based on community interaction data such as user browsing, usage, sharing, and comments, helping users quickly understand what everyone is playing with. Meanwhile, "Editor's Selections" regularly recommends high-quality applications based on specific themes, helping users discover more quality content.

The "Follow Creators" feature further strengthens the connection between people within the community. After discovering high-quality applications, users can directly follow the creators to continuously receive their latest works and updates; creators can also build followers by consistently releasing content, thereby enhancing their personal influence and community engagement. Combined with previously launched features such as search and category browsing, users can more accurately find and access interesting AI application content.

In terms of creation tools, the PC version of Lingguang App now supports uploading images, documents, and other files during conversations to aid in content understanding, information extraction, and answering questions. Additionally, when creating an instant application, users can upload documents or spreadsheets in formats such as docx, xls, csv, pdf, and txt, allowing Lingguang to understand the text and data within, assisting in generating instant applications tailored to specific tasks. Users can also import personal materials such as images, audio, and video into the instant application, for example, adding custom sound effects or visual materials to interactive games, making the AI application creation scenarios and interaction experiences more personalized. According to the information, these file upload and application creation capabilities have been initially launched on the PC side, with mobile functions expected to be released soon.

Data shows that since the launch of Lingguang App last November, the platform has seen over 30 million instant applications created by users, covering diverse life scenarios such as psychological tests, knowledge dissemination, interactive games, and emotional support. Notably, these applications are created by people from various professions, such as psychotherapists, game enthusiasts, and online literature lovers. Most of them have no technical background, yet they have successfully turned their ideas into reality through Lingguang.
