2 AI avatars from Baidu sold goods worth $7.5 million during a 6-hour stream

Chinese tech giant Baidu demonstrated the future of online commerce, and it’s mind-blowing! For the first time in history, 2 digital avatars powered by the advanced artificial intelligence model ERNIE jointly conducted a full commercial stream.

The digital clone of famous Chinese streamer Luo Yunhao and his virtual partner didn’t just imitate human communication. They created a real interactive experience, engaging with viewers in real time throughout 6 hours of continuous broadcast.

The numbers speak for themselves. 13 million views and $7.5 million in consumer electronics sales. This isn’t just a technical demonstration. This is a full commercial success confirming the viability of the technology!

Particularly impressive is the linguistic potential of the ERNIE model, which allowed the avatars to generate product descriptions with more than 97,000 characters. This is a level of detail and depth that exceeds the capabilities of many live presenters.

I think we’re witnessing the birth of a new era in e-commerce, where the line between human and artificial presence becomes increasingly blurred. Digital avatars don’t get tired, don’t make mistakes, and can work around the clock, opening unprecedented opportunities for scaling online commerce.
