This was preceded by a partial unveiling and more than five-month trial period where select users could test the chatbot&#8217;s capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts said that while the partial unveiling in March was\u00a0underwhelming, it still gave the company a valuable\u00a0first-mover advantage\u00a0in a market that has since become crowded with dozens of players, as Chinese tech companies, large and small, look to develop their own chatbots powered by generative artificial intelligence (AI).<\/p>\n<p>This followed the launch in late 2022 of US\u00a0research organization Open AI&#8217;s ChatGPT, which became the fastest-growing\u00a0software application\u00a0in the world within six months.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, investors have valued OpenAI at more than $80 billion. While OpenAI&#8217;s parent is a nonprofit, Microsoft has invested $13 billion in a for-profit subsidiary, for what would be a 49% stake.<\/p>\n<p>Baidu CEO Robin Li has this year repeatedly\u00a0touted the potential\u00a0for Ernie Bot and related products to help the company gain market share in its mainstream businesses, including search engine, cloud, and smart cars.<\/p>\n<p>According to a ranking published on Thursday by SuperCLUE, which ranks generative AI-powered chatbots, Ernie Bot leads all Chinese chatbots but its score of 79.02 is more than 10 points lower than the latest version of ChatGPT.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v5.0&#038;appId=419051588770002&#038;autoLogAppEvents=1\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Baidu&#8217;s\u00a0ChatGPT-like Ernie Bot has garnered more than 100 million users, Wang Haifeng, chief technology officer of the Chinese internet company, said on Thursday.
