China’s Baidu has unveiled several new AI-powered applications at its Baidu World Conference, focusing on commercializing large language model (LLM) technologies.
Key innovations include I-RAG, an advanced text-to-image generation tool that reduces errors in image creation, and Miaoda, a coding tool that enables non-experts to develop software applications.
The company’s Ernie platform now handles 1.5 billion daily interactions, up from 200 million in May, supporting text generation, question answering, and more.
Baidu introduced AI-powered glasses from its Xiaodu division, featuring cameras and voice interaction capabilities. CEO Robin Li stated Baidu’s aim is not to create a “super app,” marking a strategic shift from competitors.
