Baidu (BIDU) shares are in focus after the company made its ERNIE large language models (LLMs) open source – effectively enabling the global AI community to use them for R&D.
Note that Baidu’s ERNIE 4.5 series outperforms DeepSeek’s V3 model on a significant number of benchmarks across key capability categories.
