A series of versions issued by Beijing-last week show that how Chinese companies Deepseek and Artificial intelligence model is quickly transferred Competition with Openai’s ChatGPT.
Many companies in China are now increasingly based on the foundation to develop products that surpass chat robots.
BaiduKnown for its search engine Ernie ChatbotIt said on Tuesday that the AI ​​integrated Wenku platform has quickly created PowerPoint and other documents to reach 40 million paid users. As of the end of last year, revenue increased by 60 % over last year’s revenue. The updated function, for example, uses AI to generate a presentation according to the company’s financial documents, and began to launch to users last week.
In terms of company, Gartner Data and Analytical Director Ben Yan estimates that more than 10 % of Chinese companies are using AI, which is higher than 8 % about six months ago. He said on Wednesday that this will be a speed of the last two percentage points of the speed of the speed.
He said in the Mandarin translated by CNBC: “With our customers, we have heard more and more successful cases.” Yan pointed out that the so -called AI agent will help to accelerate the company’s new technologies.
The AI ​​model focuses on specific functions such as searching and generating abstracts, and AI proxies are more advanced-they can automate the entire process from searching to booking. An example is Openai’s new “operator” function This claims that it can represent restaurant booking on behalf of ChatGPT users.
Artificial intelligence agents are about to enter the Chinese market on a large scale.
Tencent According to the copy of the annual address seen by CNBC, CEO MA told employees in a speech on January 13 that the plan will soon integrate the AI ​​agent with the news transmission and social media application WeChat.

She pointed out that Chinese smartphone companies such as Honor, Xiaomi and Vivo have been able to improve the user experience of AI functions, which is due to improving the efficiency of the AI ​​model, and the efficiency of the AI ​​model can be operated on the device without relying on the Internet without relying on the Internet Connected cloud service.
Compliance
The latest development also reflects the differences with the US regulatory review and the technology being created.
BAIDU’s ChatGPT Ernie Bot It was not until August 2023 that the green light in Beijing was available for public promotionChatGPT swept the world for nearly a year.
Alex Lu, the founder of Shanghai LSY Consulting, said that although the AI ​​model must use official certification in China, it is much easier to use them in applications. In this regard, he is cooperating with a small team to develop AI -driven tools to enable the company’s daily targeted insights on industry trends and global regulations, similar to the work of human consultants.
The development project started half of the year in June 2023. Lu said that the team began to test potential customers for free, including car battery manufacturers. Lu said that this provides feedback for the team’s annual license fee of 70,000 yuan to 100,000 yuan ($ 9,660 to $ 13,790).
However, a greater challenge may be that the company can make AI access proprietary data or use AI generated in business.
Chris Retermann, the CEO of Ogilvy Asia-Pacific and Greater Charg, told CNBC: “I think (multinational company (multinational company) is more cautious than Chinese brands.” He is also the president of WPP China.
He said that customers tried to use AI for campaign activities, but they only encountered the problem of violation of the project’s compliance. He said: “Local brands, they may not pay attention to these issues, and more repeated tests.”

Amazing.com CEO Mcclary claimed that e -commerce sales exceeded $ 1 million and were headquartered outside San Louis, Missouri.
He said that he had previously used Alibaba.com and Amazon, involving hundreds or thousands of results, and then negotiating with 5 to 10 suppliers, and then resolved a supplier. Makrari said the “next GameChanger” will use AI to put product images into any circumstances to create advertisements.
