Xiaokan Planet, Baidu’s Chinese WiseAI, launched.
Baidu has released WiseAI, an AI chat application for global consumers. A few days ago, Baidu introduced “Xiaokan Planet,” the Chinese version of WiseAI, in the country. WiseAI is a discussion app for the Artificial Intelligence community.
What is WiseAI?
A virtual robot can be a user’s buddy and confidant in the WiseAI app, providing a secure environment for users to converse with the robot. Users can turn to the WiseAI chatbot whenever they’re feeling down and need a sympathetic ear or a safe place to unload their emotions.
The WiseAI Chatbot is accessible around the clock, making it ideal for customers anywhere in the world. The business claims that the WiseAI chatbot can comprehend and analyze even the most intricate conversations because it uses cutting-edge artificial intelligence and natural language processing technologies.
The app’s chat features can be utilized for various health benefits, including but not limited to stress reduction, mental calmness, emotional uplift, and general well-being. WiseAI can interpret and reply to natural language instructions with replies that feel intuitive and human in real-time, thanks to its superior machine learning technology, in contrast to generic chatbots that rely on pre-programmed responses.
AI aspirations at Baidu
In China, most people turn to Baidu while doing an online search. The Chinese multinational technology company has made Artificial Intelligence (AI) a central aspect of its business strategy.
Recently, Baidu released Xiaokan Planet (the Chinese equivalent of WiseAI), and on March 16, the business will release Ernie Bot, a competitor to ChatGPT. The business detailed its plans for the future of technology, such as AI, driverless vehicles, intelligent search, quantum computing, and AI scientific computing, at its annual flagship developer conference, Baidu Create 2022.
Co-founder, Chairman, and CEO of Baidu Robin Li have stated that deep learning algorithms are the foundation of the fourth technology revolution. Among the company’s many AI-related innovations are the New Generation Computing Architecture Taihang DPU 2.0, the Heterogeneous Computing Platform Baige 2.0, and the world’s first independent metaverse solution, XiRang MetaStack, which helps brands create their own metaverse space from scratch in as little as 40 days. In addition to UniBEV (an integrated vehicle-road solution), the company has launched Big Model ERNIE 3.0 Zeus, Big Model ERNIE-ViLG 2.0, and cutting-edge tools for creating and editing videos.
The Chinese Transition to AI
Many Chinese corporations are reorganizing their objectives and policies to convert their business to Artificial Intelligence and related services as China strives to become the global technology leader. Several major IT companies, including Tencent, Alibaba, and ByteDance, are preparing to introduce competing artificial intelligence (AI) services similar to ChatGPT. Jobs connected to Artificial Intelligence are being advertised by companies like Baidu, Alibaba, JD.com, and Kuaishou, with salaries of up to 100,000 yuan ($14,543) per month is offered.
The Chinese government is also helping to fund and encourage domestic firms to advance artificial intelligence technology that will help to elevate China’s international profile. Beijing is encouraging its top companies to create massive AI models capable of competing with ChatGPT.
