In this episode, we dive into Baidu's groundbreaking AI models, ERNIE 4.5 and ERNIE X1, which are shaking up the artificial intelligence landscape. ERNIE 4.5 is a powerful multimodal model that understands text, images, audio, and even humor—competing directly with OpenAI's GPT 4.5 at just a fraction of the cost. Meanwhile, ERNIE X1, Baidu’s "deep-thinking" AI, takes reasoning and tool usage to new heights, rivaling DeepSeek’s R1 model. We explore how Baidu’s aggressive pricing, early release strategy, and plans to open-source ERNIE 4.5 could redefine the future of AI accessibility. Will this force competitors to lower their prices and innovate faster? Tune in to find out.
