Online AI tools to make summaries (from major AI players) - October 20 2025

artistic view of
an AI tool doing a summary


While specialized websites summarize documents, major internet companies also offer this capability through their AI tools.
Sometimes, they can even summarize videos, but of course everything comes with a limit.
To know more about the limits of these AI chat bots, I tested them with a pdf document to check if an AI actually does a summary, then I asked the AI about its abilities.

There is however, a limit to this method: the AI is not necessarily aware of its own capabilities, since it has been trained on data of the past and doesn't necessarily have a search tool to get more recent information. It appeared very clear with "Qwen," which was the last AI chat bot that I tried, and where the data given by the settings menu contradicts the data given by the AI itself.

Do you plan to stay on Windows 10 ? Here is how to get the security update for free during 1 year (links to 2 videos)

As you probably know, Microsoft has officially announced that support for its widely used Windows 10 operating system will end on October 14, 2025. After this date, computers running Windows 10 will continue to function but will no longer receive crucial updates, posing significant security risks and potential compatibility issues.
If you are like me, you have probably updated your system not so long ago so it can handle AI generation and your system is probably performing too well to update it to another OS now.
Here are 2 interesting videos that helped me to enroll for the extended security updates for free.

This is in case, the "Windows 10 Extended support enroll button is not showing up":

(This video was sufficient for me to get one year of free support.)

But in case it is not enough, check this video to get FREE security updates for another year:

How to install Flash-Attention on a Windows system ?


Flash attention AI an artistic vision


WanVideoWrapper from Kijai is a useful series of nodes for WanVideo. However it requires you to have Flash-Attention installed in your python venv environment.
So I will focus on how to install this tool, but so it is compatible with "WanVideoWrapper from Kijai".
The date of the tutorial is important: October 11, 2025, since the version of Flash-Attention that you need to use with WanVideoWrapper will likely change.

While you could just do a:

pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

(May be it will be enough in the future)

Some AI news - October 6, 2025




- Kandinsky version 5.0: A family of diffusion models for Video & Image generation has been released. Models freely available on Huggingface. (Github). I suggest you to check the samples. If you want to test these models, you can use the python command line method, but it seems that there is a ComfyUI workflow too... I didn't test the model, but it seems to be more a competitor for Wan 2.2 5b than for Wan 2.2 14b (i usually use wan 2.2 that is better). The models have a size of 4-5 GB, making it possibly interesting for people with a medium-level gamer graphic card. I only saw Text to Videos models and I didn't test this myself. However I can see that some people report out of memory problems with some configurations, even with 24gb of VRAM. This picture gives some info about the models to use with ComfyUI.

- Elon Musk wants to build "Grokipedia" (i link to the most likely url) to compete with Wikipedia. The website will be available on October 19, 2025 according to Grok. More 1, More 2.

- Finally, SORA 2 has been recently released ! Please refer to this webpage, if you want to know more. I can't test the app, because it is only available on the Apple store. For the moment, the app seems oddly uncensored.

Here are some samples that i was able to find:

How to install "Nunchaku", a Plugin for ComfyUI?



The last week was rich in anouncements:

Wan 2.5, an AI tool to create videos can be tested online.

Lucy-Edit-Dev, an AI tool to edit videos, has been released
(the 14b is just online and costs credits, while the 5b is usable offline).

Wan2.2-Animate, an AI tool to create new videos  from an old one using a prompt and a picture, has been released.

and finally Qwen-Image-Edit-2509, a new version of the tool to edit pictures using a prompt has been released.

Good News ! These tools are all free, at least partially...

What can you ask to MiniCPM-V 4.5 on pictures?


Artistic vision of the test of minicpm45


In my latest tutorial, I provided some corrected installation method for MiniCPM-V 4.5 and some test scripts, so it's time to use them to see what we can ask to MiniCPM-V 4.5.

Today I will use the script to test the pictures.

Download the script above and put it in your "MiniCPM-V" directory, then activate your venv environment and run it in a command line prompt from the "MiniCPM-V" directory. (If you are used to use automatic1111 or comfyUI, you know what I mean, so I won't explain more).I would also suggest that you read first the "MiniCPM Model License.md" file (open it with notepad) from the same directory.

When you start the script, the main commands are:

Installation of MiniCPM-V 4.5 and test scripts


MiniCPM is a family of compact, efficient, open-source language models developed by OpenBMB.
Its multimodal variants, like MiniCPM-V, can understand both text and images, enabling strong performance on vision-language tasks while being small enough to run on consumer-level hardware.

(Thank you AI, for the definition.)

In summary MiniCPM is like a VLM and if you feed it pictures, it can comment on them.
You can feed it many things: one picture, several pictures, videos, pdf (with Ollama-OCR)...

For its size it is surprisingly smart.
Honestly, wow...

It could even fit in a mobile phone and there is a test apk project that you can test.

Can you install an Apple VLM model on a Windows system?

humor:
        the vlm found out

Beside a couple of other products that look promising like the Airpod pro 3 (reportedly with live translation). Apple also released, a little bit before, a series of VLM models on huggingface, the FastVLM series:


Problem: its license is extremely restrictive

Second problem: which version of FastVLM are we talking about?

How to install SageAttention2 on a Windows system with ComfyUI?

Artistic vision of Sage Attention with a wheel and a Sage
Attention


As I explained in this recent tutorial on how I optimized a ComfyUI workflow for Wan 2.2, SageAttention is a tool/component that allows you to generate videos faster.

To make the things easier, I'll consider that SINCE YOU HAVE COMFYUI, you already have a python virtual environment (venv) with everything installed and so on, because this will make the things much shorter to explain.

If you come here, I suppose that you are already aware of this kind of command:

This article, based on my own experimentations with wan 2.2, explains why you should optimize your settings and your nodes with ComfyUI. This means to not just rely on third-party tools...
At the end, I created my own optimized workflow that I link here to do a "First frame, last Frame" video generation with wan 2.2.

If you are interested in the workflow, this link will redirect you to the related CivitAi page. Note, that I still plan to tune it a bit.
Click on "read more" if you want to know how I did...
