Baidu introduces AI-driven video generators to improve search engines
Chinese tech company Baidu announced a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool called MuseSteamer, which significantly upgraded its search engine on Wednesday.
MuseSteamer: An innovative AI tool
MuseSteamer, an AI-driven video generator, can create videos for up to 10 seconds. This model is specifically designed for businesses and is available in three different versions: Turbo, Pro and Lite.
This business-oriented tool shows a departure from the general approach by most AI video generators targeting individual consumers through subscription-based models. Interestingly, Baidu has yet to reveal a consumer-oriented application for MuseSteamer.
Recent trends within the AI community have made significant advances in the realm of text-to-video or inter-image generators. Large AI and major technology companies, including Bytedance, Tencent and Alibaba, all have their models introduced into the market.
Baidu's search engine enhancements
Apart from the launch of MuseSteamer, Baidu has announced a major upgrade to the search engine. The update includes a redesigned search box that can handle more enhanced queries. It also supports audio and image-based searching. With Baidu's advanced AI technology, the platform offers more targeted content to its users.
This search engine overhaul has gained popularity among users as it faces tough competition with AI-based chatbots such as Bytedance's Doubao and Tencent's Yuanbao.
