[Financial Channel/Comprehensive Report] After OpenAI's chat robot ChatGPT became popular around the world, China also joined the battle.

Baidu released the chat robot "Wen Xin Yi Yan" on the 16th. Not only did it not have an on-site test, but it only showed pre-recorded data. It was ridiculed by Chinese netizens as a ChatPPT, and Baidu's stock price once plummeted by nearly 10%.

It was also found that in order to launch this chatbot, Baidu gave priority to the only remaining Huida A100 chip in its hands to "Wen Xin Yi Yan". Unfortunately, this chip was officially cut off by the United States on March 1. Whether China's artificial intelligence will become low IQ in the future is of concern to the outside world.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Baidu's chat robot "Ernie Bot" (Ernie Bot) officially debuted at its Beijing headquarters on the 16th. CEO Li Yanhong personally explained it.

Since there was no live demonstration of "Wenxin Yiyan", Chinese netizens scolded and laughed at "Wenxin Yiyan" as a ChatPPT, and "Wenxin Yiyan" is hard to describe.

Investors also didn't buy it. On the 16th, Baidu's shares traded in Hong Kong plummeted by nearly 10%, and finally closed down 6.4%.

Robin Li, founder and CEO of Baidu, said frankly that the industry's expectation for "Wen Xin Yi Yan" is to catch up with ChatGPT, and even reach the level of GPT-4. This threshold is still very high.

This is not the worst. Since the United States banned the export of Huida and AMD's AI chips to China, the supply of Huida's A100 has been cut off since March 1, which directly hit China's AI development.

It is reported that Baidu's autonomous driving department will give priority to the scarce Huida A100 chip to "Wen Xin Yi Yan".

In order to prevent China's artificial intelligence from becoming low-IQ after the A100 supply is cut off, Baidu also uses domestic chips such as the Cambrian Siyuan 590.

However, according to the interpretation minutes of an expert meeting deeply involved in the Baidu Wenxin project obtained by Jiwei.com, Baidu Yangquan Supercomputing Center mainly does training and reasoning for "Wenxin Yiyan", using Huida A100 and Cambrian Siyuan 590 and other domestic products.

It was found that, compared with A100, Siyuan 590 required 20-30% more work and time. Therefore, A100 is still preferred for "Wen Xin Yi Yan".
