The big reveal, Baidu unveils its artificial intelligence chatbot Ernie Bot on Thursday, presenting a rival to the Microsoft-backed ChatGPT.
The Ernie in Ernie Bot stands for “Enhanced Representation of Knowledge Integration.”
However, it disappointed investors with its use of pre-recorded videos and the lack of a public launch, sending its shares tumbling.
The Ernie Bot launch comes months after OpenAI’s ChatGPT was first released, demonstrating the AI-chatbot’s ability in answering questions and even writing essays.
The Ernie Bot will only be open for trial to an initial group of users with invitation codes from Thursday.
In February, Baidu first mentioned that the internal testing of its Ernie Bot was almost completed.
The company, known in China for its search engine, has shifted its focus in recent years to artificial intelligence, including working on autonomous driving technology and other AI applications.
