Li Ying, CEO of Xiaodu Technology： AI hardware should not only be ＂useful＂, but also ＂have a soul＂

The AI era has arrived.Artificial intelligenceHas become a driving forceSmart EducationThe new quality of productivity for the development of high-dimensional. Since May, the big model andlearning machineThe popularity of the combination began to explode intensively, and many learning machine brands have released models equipped with large modelsLearning machine products, each "AI teacher"Competing to appear, constantly raising the standard volume in the field of learning machines to new heights.

But there are also many children who buy learning machines but are unwilling to learn, or cannot learn. Therefore, when education meets artificial intelligence, how to make machines have the same knowledge, love, and patience as human teachers is the key to how a learning machine can help students achieve learning results. And this also tests the model strength and system iteration ability of different learning machines.

‘The strongest brain ’empowers AI teachers

On May 27, Baidu’s learning machine brand, Xiaodu Learning Machine, launched a new generation of learning machine product Z30, as the world’s first learning machine based on the ability of the Wenxin model. This learning machine is fully reconstructed for planning, previewing, learning, practice, parenting, Q & A, and diagnosis. It deeply understands and adapts to different scenarios to create a more interactive and personalized AI teaching experience.

The most central among them is its "new brain" DuerOS X operating system, which debuted at the Baidu 2024Create conference in April this year. It is based on the reconfiguration of the Wenxin model and is also the world’s first AI native operating system.

In the real world, "knowledgeable", "caring", and "patient" are the highest evaluations of a good teacher. The small learning machine is constantly iterating in the direction of a "good teacher" based on the large model of text heart knowledge enhancement.

Based on the large model of text-centered knowledge enhancement, the small learning machine Z30 not only has an authoritative and rich reserve of educational content, but also shows more versatility in solving problems in different tasks, languages, modes, and scenarios, supporting children to ask questions anytime and anywhere during the whole learning process.

At the same time, multi-modal perception, interaction, and anthropomorphic presentation support children’s multi-round interaction with natural language and ask questions at any time. The AI teacher’s explanation is also more emotional, making knowledge transfer into an audio-visual feast, and truly standing in the child’s perspective, teaching and educating people in a caring and accompanying manner.

In addition, based on scenario analysis and personalized customization, AI teachers can scientifically arrange learning plans for children, answering questions anytime, anywhere, and being more patient.

As Li Ying, chief executive of Xiaodu Technology, said: "An excellent teacher plays a crucial role in a child’s learning and growth process. Redefining AI teachers through big model technology will be the only way for educational products to break through."

Dream of the AI era, be everyone’s AI partner

The advent and continuous development of the AI era has put forward new requirements for children’s ability cultivation. "Creative children will be more likely to stand out in the AI era, and they will also change the world with AI thinking!" Li Ying, CEO of Xiaodu Technology, said.

Based on this recognition, all of Xiaodu’s products are not only "useful", but also "soulful". With the blessing of DuerOS X, Xiaodu can accurately perceive users’ intentions through voice, text, gestures, expressions and other visual information, and give more flexible and interesting feedback.

In the ecological layer, in addition to the tens of thousands of voice skills that Xiaodu has accumulated in various scenarios such as education, entertainment, and home furnishing, seamless access can also be achieved through the application of the ecological development of Wenxin intelligent body, which greatly enriches and expands Xiaodu’s ecological breadth at the level of general and professional knowledge, and meets the needs of more complex and diverse groups of people.

When launching DuerOS X, Li Ying said: "Xiaodu hopes to become an AI partner that everyone can have." In addition to the Xiaodu learning machine, after upgrading the new "brain" of DuerOS X, Xiaodu not only gave birth to the Tiantian AI tablet robot, but also connected to the Xiaodu smart speaker and smart screen, Tiantian girlfriend machine, Xiaodu fitness mirror, intelligent learning tablet, Xiaodu whole house intelligence, and became the user’s AI girlfriend, AI coach, AI tutor, AI housekeeper, and AI partner with more diverse roles.

From "AI + hardware" to "AI x end point", Xiaodu has continuously used technology to change the role of users, so that users are no longer the operators of equipment, but become the masters of life and control in a true sense.
