China’s biggest tech companies are barreling into generative A.I. in an effort to catch up to OpenAI’s ChatGPT, even as the country’s state media warns investors of a “valuation bubble.”
The Alibaba Group announced on Tuesday that it would be installing its “Tongyi Qianwen” chatbot into its smart speakers and its office chat software, with plans to integrate the new technology into all its services in the "near future." The Chinese company is also offering access to the new program to enterprise clients for "beta testing."
