Baidu, one of China\u2019s largest technology companies, released version 4.0 of its popular \u201cErnie\u201d artificial intelligence (AI) large language model (LLM) chatbot.<\/p>\n

According to an English language translation provided by Baidu, embedded in an X post alongside the usual Google Translate subtitles, CEO Robin Li claimed the updated model \u201cstands on par with GPT-4 in terms of overall performance.\u201d <\/p>\n

Baidu CEO Robin Li announced ERNIE 4.0 foundation model, now available for invited testing. ERNIE 4.0 elevates foundation model capabilities in understanding, generation, reasoning, and memory. <\/p>\n

Robin Li described the updated capabilities of the new Ernie model through four distinct verticals: understanding, generation, reasoning, and memory. <\/p>\n

Under the category of \u201cunderstanding,\u201d Baidu claims overall improvement in human-computer interaction. \u201cERNIE Bot can now accurately interpret ‘out-of-order statements, vague expressions, and implied meanings’ in text,\u201d reads one post in the announcement thread. <\/p>\n

This is particularly noteworthy, as Ernie has reportedly been trained in both Chinese languages and English \u2014 teaching models to understand colloquial or conversational prompts has, traditionally, been a challenging task for LLM engineers. <\/p>\n

In contrast to previous versions, Ernie 4.0 also appears to have significantly improved capabilities in both quality and speed when it comes to generating images, video, and coherent copy. \u201cWith just one image and a few prompts,\u201d reads another post in the thread, \u201cwe created 1 video ad, 5 ad copies, and 1 poster in just 3 minutes. ERNIE Bot transforms a single person into a marketing team.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the area of \u201creasoning,\u201d CEO Robin Li demonstrated the models\u2019 advanced analytical problem solving capabilities by posing a complex question. Similar LLM models of the past have struggled with problems which require any form of reasoning. In the demonstration, Ernie provides both text and imagery as well as a succinct and demonstrably correct answer. <\/p>\n

Memory: Even after five rounds of conversation and writing thousands of words, ERNIE Bot can remember previously generated content, showcasing the remarkable memory capabilities of ERNIE 4.0 foundation model. pic.twitter.com\/23ajzd5uxl<\/a><\/p>\n

The final leg of the 4.0 update involved expanding Ernie\u2019s so-called \u201cmemory.\u201d To the best of our knowledge, there\u2019s no scientific evidence that LLMs or any AI system can \u201creason\u201d or have any form of actual \u201cmemory,\u201d but analogous to those terms would be a model\u2019s ability to process problems and recall prompts and outputs from previous sessions. <\/p>\n

According to Robin Li, Ernie\u2019s \u201cmemory\u201d is about as good as ChatGPT\u2019s. \u201cEven after five rounds of conversation and writing thousands of words, ERNIE Bot can remember previously generated content.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
