On Tuesday, Baidu announced that their artificial intelligence model, Ernie 3.5, had outperformed OpenAI's ChatGPT and GPT 4 in various aspects. In March, they released Ernie Bot, and it has since been tested across China. This bot is built on Baidu's foundational AI model, Ernie. This demonstrates the fierce rivalry amongst major tech companies from the United States and China in developing generative AI.
On Tuesday, Baidu announced that the AI model underlying its chatbot, Ernie Bot, was superlative to OpenAI's ChatGPT in a number of metrics. Launched in March, the chatbot is based on Baidu's foundational Ernie AI. Built through training on extensive datasets, the current version is Ernie 3.5. According to the China Science Daily, Ernie 3.5 outperformed ChatGPT in benchmark tests, being based on OpenAI's GPT 3.5. Furthermore, it was verified to have surpassed GPT 4, the most up-to-date AI model belonging to OpenAI, in Chinese language tests. This indicates the fierce competition occurring in the field of generative AI, with both American and Chinese technology corporations rapidly advancing their respective developments.
The Chinese science journal cited one test based on standard admission and qualification exams (e.g. college admission, lawyer qualification). Ernie 3.5 outperformed ChatGPT and GPT 4 in Chinese in this evaluation, released by Microsoft, while it lagged GPT 4 in English (though still ahead of ChatGPT). Another test, focusing on Chinese and comprising 13,000 multiple-choice questions across 50+ categories, saw Ernie 3.5 surpass both ChatGPT and GPT 4. However, the third test, composed of questions on multiple topics like science and humanities developed by U.S. universities, saw Ernie 3.5 lag behind both ChatGPT and GPT 4. Speaking of its Artificial Intelligence advances, Baidu looks to take a lead over opponents such as Alibaba.
Analysts have exposed a potential worth of $12 billion concerning capitalizing on A.I. hype, specifying particular stocks for the purpose. Rather than Nvidia, a fund manager is proposing two chip giants as a preference, with one estimated to appreciate up to 30%. For those curious about the future of VR technology, experts suggest backing either Apple's Vision Pro or Meta's Quest.
Analysts have identified a $12 billion chance to leverage the A.I. hype, recommending specific stocks to take advantage of it. An investment expert advises buying two leading chip companies rather than Nvidia, predicting up to a 30% return for one of them. Analysts have weighed in on Apple's Vision Pro versus Meta's Quest, and chosen one as the better way to gain from the future of virtual reality technology.
Haifeng Wang, CTO of Baidu, expressed in a statement that merely three months following the beta release of Ernie Bot (which is an LLM built on Ernie 3.0), there have been significant advances in efficacy, functionality, and performance for Ernie 3.5. Such improvements, he goes on, are apparent in creative writing, Q&A, reasoning, and code generation, and are reflected in both training and inference performance. Baidu moreover stated that a distinguishing characteristic of the most recent model is its ability to utilize "plugins" - which are essentially apps that can be accessed through Ernie Bot. An example of this is the integration of the search feature of Baidu to Ernie Bot through a plugin.
