China's Biggest Public AI Drop Since DeepSeek, Baidu's Open Source Ernie, Is About to Hit the Market
- On Monday, Baidu, a Chinese tech giant, announced it will make its Ernie large language model open source to the public.
- Baidu's open-source move follows a broader shift influenced by China's AI surge and rivals like DeepSeek's disruptive open-source releases last year.
- The rollout includes multiple Ernie 4.5 variants ranging from lightweight to heavy models, aiming to boost accessibility for developers and researchers worldwide.
- Experts highlighted that when leading laboratories release influential models as open-source, it elevates standards across the AI field, with Baidu’s actions increasing competitive pressure on American companies such as OpenAI.
- This phased, partially uncertain open-source release could reshape AI competition and encourage a more collaborative ecosystem in both China and abroad.
