At the 2024 World Baidu Conference, Baidu founder Robin Li announced a series of breakthrough progress in the field of AI, especially major achievements in solving the problem of "illusion" of big models. This marks the transformation of AI from an unreliable "serious nonsense" to a trustworthy smart assistant, laying a solid foundation for the large-scale application of AI technology. The conference focused on Baidu's latest research and development of search-enhanced literary and biographical image technology iRAG, as well as the amazing growth data of Wenxin's big model, demonstrating Baidu's strong strength and technological innovation capabilities in the field of AI.
At the 2024 World Baidu Conference, Baidu founder Robin Li brought a series of latest advancements in the field of AI. He pointed out that the most significant breakthrough in mockup technology in the past two years is the basic solution to the "illusion" problem, which marks a qualitative leap in the accuracy of AI answers, transforming it from "serious nonsense" to reliable intelligence assistant.
At the meeting, Robin Li focused on Baidu's latest search-enhanced literary and artistic image technology iRAG. This technology innovatively integrates the massive image resources accumulated by Baidu's search platform and advanced basic model capabilities, and can generate ultra-high realistic images. Li Yanhong said that the overall effect of iRAG has far exceeded that of traditional literary and artistic graphics systems, and has successfully eliminated the traces of machine generation.
The outstanding advantage of iRAG technology lies in its commercial practicality. It not only solves the illusion problem in AI-generated images, but also achieves super-real effects. It also has the characteristics of low cost and immediate availability, providing new possibilities for commercial applications.
In terms of data, Baidu Wenxin’s big model showed an amazing growth rate. As of early November, its average daily call volume has exceeded 1.5 billion times, an increase of about 30 times compared with the 50 million announced a year ago, highlighting the widespread application and rapid popularization of large-scale model technology in various fields.
These progress not only demonstrates Baidu's technical strength in the field of AI, but also reflects that big model technology is entering a new stage of more mature and practicality. With the improvement of accuracy and the expansion of application scenarios, AI technology is bringing unprecedented opportunities for change to all industries.
Baidu's breakthrough progress in the field of AI indicates that AI technology will usher in wider application and vigorous development, bringing huge impetus to social progress and industrial upgrading. The success of iRAG and Wenxin big model also provides valuable experience and reference for other AI companies.
