Last time they hyped up their AI it was really inferior to ChatGPT. Lots of companies are claiming to be on par with GPT-4 and still end up having terrible reasoning, so I doubt it.
Think there’s room for more models anyway. Sometimes accuracy isn’t as important as running costs and such. When proofing translations I’ve found that GPT3.5 works better for me than GPT4.
OP isn’t saying there isn’t room. He’s simply stating that non-Chinese companies claim to rival GPT4 which fall through.
Knowing this is heavily China backed, there is going to be a ton of misinformation related to it. Let alone lies about how smart it is.
So, over/under on how long it takes someone to convince it to talk about Tiananmen Square and the CCP nukes it from orbit? Bonus points if you can get it to say Taiwan is an independent country.
I’d be surprised if this was possible without explicitly describing those topics in your prompt. I imagine they carefully scrubbed its training data for non-approved subject matter.
It’ll be interesting to see what happens when China decides they need to ban something new, though, like Winnie the Pooh. You can’t easily remove training data after the fact, so in that case they’d probably band-aid it and you could probably work around that.
let me guess it thinks nothing happened in tianamin square
This is the best summary I could come up with:
CEO Robin Li introduced Ernie 4.0 at an event in Beijing, focusing on what he described as the model’s memory capabilities and showing it writing a martial arts novel in real-time.
Ernie 4.0’s launch lacked major highlights versus the previous version, said Lu Yanxia, an analyst at industry consultancy IDC.
Baidu’s Hong Kong shares fell 1.32% in morning trading, underperforming a 0.7% rise in the broader Hang Seng Index (.HIS).
Ernie has amassed 45 million users since being opened for public use, Baidu’s chief technology officer Wang Haifeng said during the event.
China now has at least 130 large language models (LLMs), representing 40% of the global total and behind only the United States’ 50%, data from brokerage CLSA showed.
Last week, Beijing published proposed security requirements for firms offering services powered by the technology, including a blacklist of sources that cannot be used to train AI models.
