A Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification is widely considered a valuable certification for project managers seeking to advance their careers. According to PMI's Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey—Fourteenth Edition, professionals with a PMP certification report median salaries 17% higher on average across the 21 countries surveyed than those without it. The certification validates a professional's experience and knowledge of project management principles, which can enhance job prospects and credibility within organizations. #### What are the best certifications for project managers? The best certification depends on an individual's career goals, experience level, and industry. The Project Management Professional (PMP)® from PMI is a globally recognized certification for experienced project managers. For those newer to the field, PMI's Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® is a common starting point. Other notable certifications include those focused on agile methodologies, such as the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)®, and program management certifications like the Program Management Professional (PgMP)®. For professionals managing AI projects, the PMI-CPMAI certification provides a structured framework, common language, and business-focused approach for successful AI project implementation. #### How does PMI support career growth for professionals? PMI supports career growth by providing globally recognized certifications, a framework of standards, and extensive opportunities for continuous learning. Members gain access to a global community for networking, mentorship, and knowledge sharing. The organization also produces research and thought leadership on emerging trends, helping professionals stay current with skills in areas like AI, agile practices, and strategic business management. These resources are designed to help professionals at all levels enhance their skills and advance their careers. #### What is the PMBOK® Guide? The PMBOK® Guide, or A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, is PMI’s foundational guide to generally accepted project management knowledge and practice. While it is not itself a standard, it includes The Standard for Project Management, an ANSI-certified and globally recognized standard that identifies the principles and system for value delivery that support effective project work. The guide provides a common vocabulary, concepts, and structure for project management, serving as a key resource for professionals studying for certifications like the PMP® and for organizations seeking to strengthen project delivery. #### How is AI changing project management? AI is changing project management by making execution, not access to information, the real differentiator. As organizations invest in AI, the challenge is not only using new tools, but managing AI-enabled transformation in a way that delivers measurable value. Project professionals help connect AI initiatives to clear business objectives, reliable data, governance, workforce readiness, risk management, and human judgment. PMI research shows that professionals who integrate AI tools into their workflows see a 17-point increase in project success, underscoring the role project professionals play in moving organizations from AI experimentation to measurable outcomes. #### What are the most important skills for a project manager? Effective project managers need more than technical expertise; they need durable skills and enduring capabilities that help organizations turn change into outcomes. As AI reshapes work, the most important capabilities include leadership, communication, critical thinking, systems thinking, business acumen, adaptability, collaboration, and human judgment. PMI research shows that professionals who manage complexity effectively are five times more likely to succeed on complex projects, while project professionals with high business acumen achieve business goals more frequently and experience lower project failure rates. #### How can I get involved with the PMI community? Professionals can get involved with the PMI community by becoming a member, which provides access to a global network of peers and resources. Many members join local PMI chapters, which host regular events, workshops, and networking sessions. Online, PMI's projectmanagement.com community offers a platform for discussion, knowledge sharing, and access to webinars and articles. Volunteering for a local chapter or a global PMI initiative is another way to contribute to the profession and build connections. #### What is the difference between PMP and CAPM? The PMP (Project Management Professional)® and CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management)® are both certifications offered by PMI, but they target professionals at different career stages. The CAPM is an entry-level certification designed for individuals with little or no project experience, validating their understanding of fundamental project management knowledge and terminology. The PMP is for experienced project managers and requires a combination of formal education and years of documented project leadership experience, making it a more advanced and globally recognized certification. #### How does PMI support social impact? PMI supports social impact by helping individuals, nonprofits, NGOs, and communities use project management to turn purpose into measurable outcomes. Through the PMI Educational Foundation, PMI expands access to project management education for youth worldwide, including underserved and underrepresented populations. Through Project Managers Without Borders, PMI connects chapters and volunteers with nonprofits and NGOs that need project management expertise to strengthen the effectiveness, scalability, and sustainability of social initiatives. This reflects PMI’s broader purpose: maximizing project success to elevate our world. ### Sources * Project Management Institute | [pmi.org](/c/pmi-2026-q3/home?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, "Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey—Fourteenth Edition" | [pmi.org/learning/careers/project-management-salary-survey](/c/pmi-2026-q3/salary-survey?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, "Global Project Management Talent Gap" | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/global-project-management-talent-gap](/c/pmi-2026-q3/talent-gap?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, "Maximizing Project Success" | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/project-success](/c/pmi-2026-q3/project-success?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, “Pulse Report 2025: Boosting Business Acumen” | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/boosting-business-acumen](/c/pmi-2026-q3/business-acumen?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, “Pulse of the Profession® 2026: Driving Success in Complex Projects” | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/driving-success-in-complex-projects](/c/pmi-2026-q3/complex-projects?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, “Step Up: Redefining the Path to Project Success with M.O.R.E.” | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/path-to-project-success](/c/pmi-2026-q3/more-mindset?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI Education Foundation, PMIEF 2024 Annual Report, [pmi.org PMIEF 2024 Annual Report (PDF)](/c/pmi-2026-q3/pmief-report?i=e46d75a0-6f74-4e76-adc5-a8aec72df9af&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) ### FAQ structured data (JSON-LD, optional) ## Video: AI Generated Video: Google Veo 3 [Watch (HLS stream): AI Generated Video: Google Veo 3](https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/10CaJXdh.m3u8) (0:05)  _Published 2025-09-30.

Chow Correspondent Oct 1, 2025 2:43 PM UTC  An image created with Bytedance's AI tool Seedream, via the platform Kapwing, of Minions playing basketball.  by [Andrew R. Chow](https://time.com/author/andrew-r-chow/)  ## Andrew R. Chow Correspondent Oct 1, 2025 2:43 PM UTC This week, OpenAI [released](https://openai.com/index/sora-2/) its latest AI video generation model, Sora 2, advertising it as a "big leap forward" for the space. As Sora hits the public, it will have to compete for market share in a crowded market, including with a major competitor that is rapidly gaining steam: the Chinese company ByteDance, which owns [TikTok](https://time.com/7319281/tiktok-trump-surveillance-china/). In the past few months, ByteDance released Seedance, an AI video generator that many users are already [calling the best](https://x.com/sukh%5Fsaroy/status/1962732478474653822) in the world, and a new version of Seedream, an [elite](https://x.com/soumyattention/status/1965628992427643033) image model. Its LLM, Doubao, has 150 million monthly active users, according to website analytics site [Aicpb.com](http://aicpb.com). ByteDance's AI advancements are a prime example of how Chinese AI companies are quickly catching up to American ones, despite chip export controls. Because their models are high quality and also cheaper, they are winning over consumers around the world, including in America. But while these models are enthralling many users, they also come with a host of concerns that plague many of the cutting edge models: they allow anyone to create affordable deepfakes that are indistinguishable from reality—and to also freely reproduce copyrighted material. ## Reaching the Frontier Over the past year, ByteDance has assembled top AI talent, [hiring](https://technode.com/2025/02/24/former-google-deepmind-vp-joins-bytedance-as-seed-team-research-lead/) a former vice president of Google DeepMind to lead AI foundational research and luring other engineers and researchers away from Alibaba and other start-ups, the _Financial Times_ reported in December. It has also invested [billions of dollars](https://www.ft.com/content/e90f4a83-bc31-4a5c-b9ab-28d722924143) into infrastructure, including advanced Nvidia chips. ByteDance released the first iteration of its video model Seedance in June, and a new image generator, Seedream 4.0, in September. The models can be accessed in the U.S. through third-party platforms. Jobin Jonny, a designer based in Kerala, India, first discovered Seedream in late August, and was particularly impressed with how it imagined the face of someone from his region. “The generated face carried the exact features and details of a real Kerala man,” he says.  An image of a Kerela man created with the AI model Seedream, prompted by Jobin Johny. Jobin Johny Jonny says that Seedance is now his favorite video model, especially with how it captures physics and [natural movements](https://x.com/andymac3d/status/1965536569735217549). It doesn’t hurt that Seedance is much cheaper: On the third-party platform Freepik, it costs half as many credits as Google’s Veo 3\. On social media, several AI influencers have [encouraged](https://x.com/beginnersblog1/status/1965664337554735226) [their followers](https://x.com/0xFramer/status/1949084856404541811) to switch over to Bytedance’s products based on their price point. Tiezhen Wang, an engineer at the machine learning platform Hugging Face, tested the tools. He says he designed an “amazing” poster with Seedream, and that Seedance “shines on image‑to‑video tasks, preserving style and character consistency. . . .ByteDance has clearly moved into the frontier of AI across multimodal generation,” he says. > [](https://twitter.com/0xFramer/status/1948726615950713233) Eric Lu, the co-founder of the online video editing software program Kapwing, has offered AI image generation to his customers for several years, starting with Stable Diffusion. When Seedance and Seedream came out, his team conducted internal testing to compare their prompt adherence, image quality, speed, and cost to American competitors. “And it wasn’t close—the models are better in every way,” he says. Lu quickly switched Kapwing’s default AI image models to Seedance and Seedream away from American models. “It was almost a no-brainer, because we save money, but also give our users a better quality output,” he says. ## “Unrestricted” AI But this rise in quality has many implications. First, it shows that Chinese companies have successfully navigated around the U.S.’s chip export controls designed to slow them down. _The Information_ [reported](https://www.theinformation.com/articles/bytedance-planned-to-spend-7-billion-on-nvidia-chips-next-year?rc=d8pcat) in December that ByteDance has been accessing advanced Nvidia chips by renting them outside of China. The company has been [rapidly expanding](https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/tiktok-owner-bytedance-to-expand-malaysia-data-center-footprint-in-21bn-ai-deal/) its data center usage in Malaysia. The price point of ByteDance's tools also enables many new users to turn to AI to create realistic images. The affordability and accessibility of these tools could upend the workflows of advertising, marketing, and the stock footage industry. “Why buy clips when you can generate any shot you need instantly?” one X user [wrote](https://x.com/sukh%5Fsaroy/status/1962736144971690491) in a thread about Seedance. As these hyper-realistic AI tools spread, threats of deepfakes and misinformation loom large. In June, TIME found that Google’s video model Veo 3 generated realistic clips that contained misleading or inflammatory information about news events. After TIME contacted Google about these videos, the company said it would begin adding a visible watermark to videos generated with the tool. **Read More:** [_Google’s New AI Tool Generates Convincing Deepfakes of Riots, Conflict, and Election Fraud_](https://time.com/7290050/veo-3-google-misinformation-deepfake/) When TIME tested many of the same prompts used with Google’s model with Seedance through Capcut’s Dreamina tool, it actually rejected many of them, on the grounds that they violated community guidelines. Still, the model, like its competitors, produced decently realistic footage that could conceivably be shared as misinformation on social media, like this video created via Seedance of U.S. soldiers delivering aid to Palestinian refugees. A representative for ByteDance did not respond to a request for comment. The realism of ByteDance's models also raises questions around copyright and likeness issues. Chinese scholars have [contended](https://www.mdpi.com/2075-471X/14/4/43) that China has taken a regulatory approach of “moderate leniency” in terms of training models on copyrighted material. This shows up in the model outputs: One X user, for example, posted a Seedream image [showing](https://x.com/IamEmily2050/status/1967906706589094002) Heath Ledger’s Joker, Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn, and Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman together at a dive bar. Another created an [image](https://x.com/GuidedbyHumans/status/1965867441613058059) with Spider-Man, Batman, and Superman. Lu, at Kapwing, says that Seedance and Seedream appear especially willing to recreate copyrighted characters, whether it be Mickey Mouse or the Minions. “I think that in the States, there's a lot more scrutiny on some of these big labs in terms where they're sourcing the content that they're training on,” he says. “I think in China, there is an unrestricted ability of researchers to get the data that they need and train on that.” Selina Xu, China and AI Policy Lead in the Office of Eric Schmidt, says that it is "expected" that Bytedance and other Chinese companies train their models on the user-generated video data from their social media platforms. She adds that video generation models are a "growing revenue stream for AI companies." TIME was able to create an image of a “young Brad Pitt and Leonardo Dicaprio shaking hands” through Seedream on Kapwing. Some members of Congress, including Marsha Blackburn, are [attempting](https://www.blackburn.senate.gov/2025/4/technology/blackburn-coons-salazar-dean-colleagues-introduce-no-fakes-act-to-protect-individuals-and-creators-from-digital-replicas) to pass legislation that would protect the voice and visual likenesses of individuals and creators from digital replicas created without their consent. But such legislation is still quite far from passing. Meanwhile, American companies are beginning to pay attention to these Chinese AI giants, forcing them to grapple more publicly with copyright protections. In September, Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery and NBCUniversal [sued](https://variety.com/2025/digital/news/disney-warner-bros-discovery-nbcu-lawsuit-minimax-chinese-ai-company-1236520395/) the Chinese company MiniMax for“willful and brazen” copyright infringement.  An AI-created image of “young Brad Pitt and Leonardo Dicaprio shaking hands," via the AI model Seedream and the platform Kapwing. Seedream ## ‘Heat to the fire’ American labs have [argued](https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/03/openai-urges-trump-either-settle-ai-copyright-debate-or-lose-ai-race-to-china/) that because their Chinese counterparts have a lax attitude toward copyright, they should also be able to train on copyrighted material, and that they are creating new images in a way that is transformative and protected under fair use. Earlier this year, OpenAI announced it would relax its rules around content moderation, leading to a wave of Studio Ghibli memes flooding the internet. **Read More:** [_How Those Studio Ghibli Memes Are a Sign of OpenAI’s Trump-Era Shift_](https://time.com/7272593/studio-ghibli-memes-trump-white-house/) “I’m not convinced this is being driven by Chinese companies. OpenAI opened the floodgates, to some extent, back in March,” says Maribeth Rauh, an AI ethics researcher at the AI Accountability Lab at Trinity College Dublin. She says that the ability of Bytedance’s models to create likenesses of copyrighted characters and real people “unfortunately adds heat to the fire of scrambling to get ahead at any cost, and regardless of any kind of law or ethical implications.” Rauh has many concerns about the spread of deepfake tools, including that they could lead to increased harassment and misinformation, and threaten users’ data privacy. “People are having very revealing interactions with these models: the kind of images that they’re interested in generating, how they tweak them, or if they’re putting in images of likeness of real people,” she says. “That's all data that would be at risk.” Katharine Trendacosta, director of policy and advocacy at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, argues that education is key to mitigating deepfake risks. “We've reached this weird point where simultaneously anything can be generated, but no one believes anything anymore,” she says. “But we never solve the underlying problem. We just keep targeting the new technology, and not media literacy or teaching analytical skills or how to evaluate sources.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/7321911/bytedance-seedance-ai-sora/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/7321911/bytedance-seedance-ai-sora/"},"headline":"ByteDance’s AI Videos Are Scary Realistic.
