Beginner Guide for the AI Aggregation Platform

1. Basic Concepts: Common AI Terms

1. Q: What is a large AI model?
   A: A large AI model is an artificial intelligence program with strong understanding, writing, creative, and reasoning capabilities. It can chat, write copy, generate images, create videos, and handle many other tasks. Gm AI brings multiple mainstream models together so you can switch between them in one place.

2. Q: What is an AI aggregation platform or AI relay platform?
   A: It is a collection of AI tools in one site. We integrate text, image, and video AI models so you do not need to register for many platforms, handle separate integrations, or switch between different websites. You can select models directly on this platform with unified usage and billing.

3. Q: What is a token?
   A: A token is a unit used by AI systems to count text and computation. Text conversations and prompt instructions consume tokens. Different models and content lengths consume different amounts, and tokens are one reference point for billing.

4. Q: What is computing power?
   A: Computing power is the processing capacity required for AI to run and generate content. Image and video generation usually need more computing power, which directly affects generation speed and final quality.

5. Q: What is Banana?
   A: Banana is a common AI deployment and computing service. It is often used to run image and video models reliably, helping generated content complete faster. Some image and video capabilities on this platform may rely on this kind of service.

6. Q: What is Civitai?
   A: Civitai is a large AI model and asset community with many image models, style templates, and prompt references. Some drawing capabilities on this platform may integrate quality resources from that ecosystem to support creation.

7. Q: What is the difference between domestic and overseas AI models?
   A: Domestic models are usually more stable for Chinese-language contexts and local usage scenarios, and they often perform well for Chinese copy, daily conversations, and local styles. Overseas models may provide more choices for artistic images, creative videos, and international visual styles. Gm AI lets you use both smoothly.

8. Q: What types of AI models are there?
   A: The main categories are text models for chat, writing, and translation; image models for generating pictures; and video models for generating or editing videos. This platform integrates all three categories.

9. Q: What is a prompt?
   A: A prompt is the instruction you give to AI. Your text description, style requirements, and detail settings are all part of the prompt. The clearer the prompt, the more closely the result can match your idea.

10. Q: What is the difference between free trial usage and paid usage?
    A: The platform may provide limited free trial credits for basic features. Paid usage can unlock all models, higher image quality, longer videos, larger text tasks, and other advanced capabilities.

2. Getting Started with the Platform

1. Q: What should a beginner do first?
   A: First create an account and sign in. Then choose the feature you need, such as text chat, text-to-image, or image-to-video. Pick a suitable AI model, enter your instruction, and start creating.

2. Q: How do I choose the right AI model?
   A: Choose a text model if you want chat, writing, or translation. Choose an image model if you want pictures, posters, or illustrations. Choose a video model if you want short videos or animated content. Each model includes notes about its main strengths.

3. Q: How do I switch between AI models?
   A: After entering a feature page, use the model selection list near the top or side of the interface. Click another model to switch without signing in again or opening another website.

4. Q: How do recharge and billing work?
   A: In your account area, choose a recharge package. Your balance can be used across supported models. Different models deduct credits according to their pricing, and usage details can be checked on the billing or account page.

5. Q: Are generated works saved? Where can I find history?
   A: The platform saves your creation history automatically. After signing in, you can view past images, videos, and conversations in the works or history area.

6. Q: Can I download generated images and videos?
   A: Yes. After an image or video finishes generating, use the download button near the work to save it to your device.

7. Q: Can I use the same account on multiple devices?
   A: Yes. You can sign in on computers, phones, and other devices. Your data, balance, and work history stay synchronized.

8. Q: What should I do if the page freezes or generation fails?
   A: Refresh the page and try again first. If failures happen repeatedly, try another model or check your network status. If the issue continues, contact support through the page.

3. AIGC Image Generation: Text-to-Image and Image-to-Image

1. Q: What is text-to-image?
   A: Text-to-image means entering a text description and letting AI generate a picture from it. For example, if you enter “a woman in ancient Hanfu with a mountain-and-river background,” AI will create a matching image.

2. Q: What is image-to-image?
   A: Image-to-image uses an existing image as the starting point for a new creation. You can change the style, beautify the image, replace the background, adjust the composition, and keep the main subject while redesigning the result.

3. Q: What is a simple prompt tip for beginners?
   A: Write the subject, style, quality, and size. For example: “a cat, cartoon style, high definition, vertical format.” You do not need complex terms. Direct descriptions usually produce more stable results.

4. Q: How do I fix blurry or low-quality images?
   A: Select HD or ultra-HD quality settings when available, improve the prompt with terms such as “high definition,” “rich details,” or “8K,” and try models that focus on high-quality image generation.

5. Q: Can I use my own photo for image-to-image creation?
   A: Yes. Upload a local image on the image-to-image page, add text instructions, and use AI to restyle, enhance, or apply effects to the photo.

6. Q: What image sizes are supported?
   A: The platform supports common formats such as landscape, portrait, and square images for posters, avatars, short-video covers, social posts, and other scenarios.

7. Q: Why do identical prompts create different images?
   A: AI creation includes randomness, so the same prompt may produce different compositions and details. This is normal. If you need stronger consistency, use a reference image when available.

8. Q: Can generated images be used commercially?
   A: Personal works created on the platform can generally be used for ordinary commercial purposes if you follow platform rules. For large-scale commercial use, check the license or copyright notes for the specific model.

9. Q: There are many image models. Which should beginners choose first?
   A: Start with models labeled beginner-friendly or general-purpose image generation. They are usually easier to use and more stable. After you get familiar with them, try artistic, realistic, or other specialized models.

4. AIGC Video Generation: Image-to-Video and Text-to-Video

1. Q: What is text-to-video?
   A: Text-to-video means entering a written description and letting AI generate a complete dynamic video from it, without preparing images in advance.

2. Q: What is image-to-video?
   A: Image-to-video starts from a static image and adds motion effects, such as blinking, flowing scenery, or camera movement, turning a still image into a short video.

3. Q: How long are AI-generated videos?
   A: Basic versions usually support short videos of several seconds. Paid or advanced versions may support longer videos for editing, social media, and content creation.

4. Q: Why is video generation slower?
   A: Video requires much more computing power than images. Higher resolution and longer duration take more time. Wait patiently or choose a lower quality setting to generate faster.

5. Q: Can generated videos be edited again?
   A: Yes. After downloading the video, you can use any editing software to splice clips, add voiceover, add subtitles, or make other edits.

6. Q: Should beginners start with image-to-video or text-to-video?
   A: Image-to-video is usually better for beginners because it is easier to control. After gaining experience, you can try text-to-video for freer creation.

7. Q: What should I do if a video stutters or looks distorted?
   A: Reduce the video resolution or shorten the duration, then generate again. You can also switch models because some models handle motion better than others.

5. Common Questions and Pitfalls

1. Q: Who owns the copyright of AI-generated content?
   A: Under compliant usage, the usage rights for content you paid to create on this platform belong to the creator. Do not steal, copy, or redistribute other people’s works.

2. Q: What content cannot be generated with AI?
   A: Do not generate illegal, sexual, violent, infringing, false, or otherwise prohibited content. The platform may automatically block violating prompts. Please follow platform and internet rules.

3. Q: Do domestic and overseas models produce very different image or video styles?
