Artificial intelligence technologies have recently focused on language models. The clearest example of this is the chat bot named ChatGPT and the artificial intelligence language model behind this bot, GPT. As such, technology giants are competing to add ChatGPT-like structures to their products and services. Now, among the largest companies in China, Alibaba has introduced its new artificial intelligence language model, which it calls “Tongyi Qianwen”.
Tongyi Qianwen is not currently a model focused on individual consumers. Because Alibaba will first use this artificial intelligence language model for professional life. In the next stage, Alibaba and Alibaba-owned retail trading platform Aliexpress will make this artificial intelligence language model available for individual users.
So what can Tongyi Qianwen do?
We have already said that Tongyi Qianwen will initially focus on professional life. In this context; This artificial intelligence language model can perform operations such as preparing invitations, planning travel itineraries and giving advice about the world of makeup. However, Tongyi Qianwen will be added to Alibaba’s internal communication platform DingTalk in the future. Thus, more benefits will be obtained from this artificial intelligence model. These benefits will be things like writing emails, summarizing meeting notes, and creating job offers. In the final stage, Alibaba’s voice assistant Tmall Genie will receive Tongyi Qianwen integration.
Alibaba Cloud customers will be able to develop their own chatbots!
Although we mostly associate Alibaba with the world of e-commerce, the company also has subsidiaries founded on information technology. One of them is Alibaba Cloud, which produces cloud solutions for companies. In the statements made about Tongyi Qianwen, it was stated that this artificial intelligence language model will be offered to Alibaba Cloud customers in the future. For now, the company, which is collecting requests, will offer its customers the opportunity to create personalized chatbots. Making a statement on the subject, CEO Daniel Zhang stated that Tongyi Qianwen can cause big changes in both professional and private life.
