Chinese tech giant Baidu unveiled more than 10 AI-based applications after its ChatGPT-rival Ernie bot got a nod for public use.

During the product presentations, one noteworthy reveal was the introduction of WPS AI, a word-processing application integrated with generative AI. Kingsoft Office, a company listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, has developed this app.

The company leveraged the same AI model that powers Baidus Ernie bot, in addition to harnessing Baidus "Qianfan" cloud platform for AI models in the development process, as detailed in a press release.

Baidu also showcased generative AI-driven products designed to potentially aid in tasks such as traffic management, financial research, and coal mine logistics. However, it remains unclear to what extent these products are currently accessible for public use.
