From Content Creation to AI Alignment Research
—— Bridging creative expertise with information-theoretic approaches to AI quality.
We study Creative Quality Alignment (CQA) — using information theory to formalize what makes creative work "good" and to align AI systems accordingly. Our research program comprises a 3+1 paper series: one theoretical foundation, one experimental validation, one evaluation benchmark, and one expert-knowledge extraction paradigm.
Beijing Bread Media Technology Co., Ltd. (Nutcracker Studio) was founded as a content creation company, producing popular science videos, illustrated books, and fiction. Our crime thriller Her, Her, and Her reached #1 on WeChat Reading's Trending chart upon release.
In 2026, building on our deep domain expertise in creative quality, we pivoted to AI alignment research. We are developing Creative Quality Alignment (CQA) — an information-theoretic framework for formalizing and measuring creative quality in AI-generated content.
