尽管2026年只过去了两个月，但其给人留下的印象极为深刻。 先是美国人工智能安全和研究公司Anthropic发布的自动化工具"Cowork"冲击了人们对软件行业的信心，全球多家软件公司股价一度遭遇重挫。紧接着是字 节跳动推出的视频生成模型"seedance2.0"，被认为将极大地影响影视、短视频行业。数度更名的openclaw带来的影响仍在酝酿，就像潜伏在海中的巨鲸。 短短两个月，AI（人工智能）给人类历史上几个诞生时间不久的行业带来了一点小小的震撼。《黑神话：悟空》制作人冯骥在试用seedance2.0后说："AIGC （人工智能生成内容）的童年时代结束了。" 2026年年初，各省两会释放了一些前所未有的信号：多省份主动调低了2026年GDP增速目标，即使其中一些省份在2025年超额完成了增长目标。研究者认为 这释放了一种更加务实的增长态度，也显示了中国经济可能在2026年面临的约束条件。着力稳房地产的政策信号开始陆续释放，经过一段时间调整，市场普 遍认为一线城市的房地产市场有可能开始触底。 这种改变更接近我们的生活，也贴近我们对经济的直接感知。 在2026年年初，"K型经济"这个词开始进入公众视野，它用来 ...

2月5日，抖音正式按下付费合集的"终止键"——原"合集付费配置"功能全面下线，所有已创建的付费合集统一转为免费合集，用户无需购买即可正常观 看；已购买用户可下载保存内容，平台全额承担所有退款请求。 往前追溯，抖音于2023年11月正式测试视频内容付费业务，内容涵盖生活日常、知识、娱乐等类型。两年零三个月后，"付费合集"被全面关闭，这一内容 变现路径被"宣告失败"。 面向创作者，抖音还是给出了替代方案：同步推出"合集升级计划"，以投稿数量、内容质量、播放效果等多维度数据为核心评估指标，定向为优质创作者 提供创作激励，来替代原有的付费分成模式，引导创作者转向基于内容流量与平台补贴的变现路径。 其一，付费模式必须与平台的核心用户群体、社区氛围深度匹配。 B 站的"包月充电"模式、知乎的"盐选专栏付费"模式，均与其社区基因高度契合，因此都能获得成功；而抖音的付费合集与平台"碎片化 + 免费"的基因冲 突，最终导致下线。 QuestMobile数据显示，截止到2025年9月，短视频APP行业月活跃用户规模已达11.29亿，其中抖音月活用户高达93641万，占据榜首。作为短视频行业的 风向标，抖音每一次商业化动作都牵动着 ...
