Beijing – A multitude of last week’s posts shows as Chinese companies like Deepseek and Bytendance has quickly progressed with artificial intelligence models who compete with Openi’s Chatgpt.
Now many companies in China are increasingly building on these foundations to develop products that go beyond Chatbot frames.
Baidbest known for his search engine and Ernie ChatbotHe said on Tuesday that his generative platform Wenka integrated with artificial intelligence to quickly create PowerPoink and other documents reached 40 million beneficiaries, with revenue greater than 60% compared to the previous year ending last year. Updated features, such as the use of artificial intelligence to generate a presentation on the basis of the company’s financial documentation, began to be published last week.
On the corporate side, the analyst of Gartner data and analytics Ben Yan estimates that more than 10% of the AI uses AI, which is an increase compared to 8% about six months ago. That would be acceleration in the pace – the last increase in 2 percent points in more than a year, he said on Wednesday.
“We hear more and more successful stories with our clients,” he said in a mandarin language in the CNBC translation. Yan noticed that the so -called AI agents would help accelerate the corporate implementation of new technology.
AI models are focused on specific functions such as searches and generation of abstracts, while AI agents are more advanced – they can automate the entire processes from search to booking. One example is Openai’s new “operator” function. who claims he can book a restaurant on behalf of the Chatgpt user.
Artificial intelligence agents are also on the threshold of a more massive arrival in the Chinese market.
Tencent He plans to integrate AI agents soon with his message and social media exchange application, said the Pony MA staff executive director in speech on January 13, according to a copy of the annual address into which CNBC had an insight.
“We believe that the Chinese artificial intelligence sector is progressing a pace that can be compared to the one in the United States,” said Jo Huang, head of private capital at Raffles Family Office, in the email. She said the company was considering investing in the leading Chinese Fund for Deep Technology of Artificial Intelligence to use local opportunities.
The development of Chinese AI app creates features that integrate with homemade smartphones. Apple functions of AI intelligence are yet to reach the iPhone user in China.
“There is also a shift toward the increasing tendency of users to local brands that I can Nude advanced AI features adapted to regional consumer preferences“Said Wei Sun, the chief analyst of artificial intelligence in Counterpoint Research, in an email on Thursday.
She pointed out that Chinese smartphones, such as Honor, Xiaomi and Vivo, have been able to improve the user experience of artificial intelligence features, thanks to the efforts to improve the efficiency of artificial intelligence models that can be performed on a large release device associated with the cloud connected to the Internet service.
Obstacles to compliance
The latest development also reflects the difference in regulatory supervision in relation to the US, and in the type of technology that is created.
Baidu’s Ernie Bot similar to Chatgpt did not get the green beam light for public presentation by August 2023Almost a year after Chatgpt has conquered the world.
Although artificial intelligence models have to get an official certification for use in China, their use in applications is much easier, said Alex LU, founder of Lsy Consulting based in Shanghai. On the other hand, he works with a small team on a tool that triggers AI to give companies aimed daily insights into trends in industry and global regulations, similar to the work of a human consultant.
Half a year after the start of development in June 2023, LU said that the team began to test the product with potential customers for free, including car batteries manufacturers. This has given feedback on the product that the team hopes will charge 70,000 yuan to 100,000 yuan ($ 9,660 to $ 13,790) an annual license, Lu said.
But more challenge can make companies make artificial intelligence access to ownership data or commercially use content generated by artificial intelligence.
“I mean [multinational corporations are] Much more careful than Chinese brands due to copyright and legal problems, “said Chris Reitermann, CEO of Ogilvy Asia-Pacific and Greater China, for CNBC late last year. He is also president of WPP China.
He said clients tried to use AI for campaigns, just to encounter problems with compliance that prevented the starting of projects. “Local brands may be a little less concerned about these problems, more attempts and mistakes,” he said.
AI for global users
Some AI apps created in China are also used abroad. AlibabaThe international branch announced earlier this month that Accio, his search engine to find products launched with artificial intelligence, reached 500,000 small business users.
Launched in November, Accio It allows companies to use several textual or pictorial inquiries to find wholesale products – and provides them with an analysis of their popularity among consumers and the planned profit.
Accio has shortened the time of research from weeks to a day or something, said Mike McClary, who got an early approach to Accia and selling camping lamps and other products online for over 10 years. McClary, Amazing.com CEO claims that the sale of e-commerce is more than $ 1 million a year and is outside St. Louisa, Missouri.
He said that Alibaba.com and Amazon, which he used to use, included passing hundreds or thousands of results, and then individual negotiations with five to ten suppliers before opted for one. “The next change of game,” McClary said, would be the use of artificial intelligence to put a product image in any scenario to create a commercial.
