Baidu’s (NASDAQ:BIDU) Co-founder, Chairman and CEO Robin Li said that AI technology is not improving fast enough, when talking at an event in France of his desire to see the pace of AI improve.
“[The] fear is that the AI technology is not improving fast enough. Everyone is shocked at how fast the technology evolved over the past couple of years, but to me it’s still not fast enough. It’s too slow,” said Li at VivaTech 2024, an event dedicated to start-ups and tech in Paris.
Li also argued that many are overstating how quickly we may arrive at Artificial General Intelligence, or AGI. However, Li noted that “they say: no, it’s probably two years away, it’s probably five years away. I think it’s more than 10 years away.”
The Chinese internet search giant has its own generative artificial intelligence chat tool called Ernie Bot, which has seen over 200M users. Baidu has also launched several lightweight large language models, or LLMs, such as ERNIE Speed, ERNIE Lite, and ERNIE Tiny, to make it more affordable.
