According to local media reports, Li Yanhong, the founder, chairman and CEO of Baidu (09888.HK), stated at an event today (4th) that in this wave of artificial intelligence, artificial intelligence plays more of an assistant role in the "co-pilot" position. He believes that artificial intelligence will not replace humans and needs humans to supervise it.

He mentioned that there are already new opportunities related to artificial intelligence, such as data labeling specialists, prompt word engineers, etc. These opportunities provide a large number of job positions and have low barriers to entry. He also firmly believes that artificial intelligence is not a competitor of humans, but rather a means to meet human needs and enhance human abilities.

Li Yanhong also pointed out that the development direction of artificial intelligence technology has undergone a directional change, from past discriminative artificial intelligence to future generative artificial intelligence. He calls on the industry to "focus on application rather than model development".
