The high beam assist in the 2014 M5 (US) will dim the lights independently. So it not all on or all off as with the X5. I'm just not sure if the lights will split when approaching another vehicle as seen in the video. I'll try to test it tonight to see what happens.

Also, there is no option to enable high beam assist via the iDrive. Only a button on the turn signal stalk (split/1 info, 1 high beam assist).

I was wrong! The high beams do not operate independently! I just did a quick test, and it was either all on or all off. Sorry for the misinformation.
