阿里 recently officially launched the "千问" APP public test version, with the core positioning of "会聊天、能办事"。 The project is led by Alibaba director and CEO Wu Yiming himself, bringing together over 100 engineers to secretly develop for months, aiming to become a comprehensive AI living entrance and expand globally. Interestingly, Alibi flagship application Kraken only recently launched its dialog assistant function, just one month before "千问" APP's public test version was released. Just a few days later, Ant Group also released its all-mode general-purpose AI assistant "灵光".
AI industry in the AIToC field is indeed slowing down, and Alibaba is now accelerating to take action. AI time's super entrance competition has already started to fight back, but speed does not necessarily mean victory. Whether Alibaba can win or not depends on how many powerful cards they have.
The article revealed that Alibaba has been putting in great efforts to develop its AI technology, and its latest move is a big one. The "千问" APP will cover multiple scenes such as office, map, health, shopping, etc., with the newly launched shopping Agent being the most anticipated feature. According to Bloomberg reports, the project's goal is to become comprehensive against ChatGPT and become AI living entrance in the future.
It seems that Alibaba has been playing catch-up in the AIToC field for a long time. Even Kraken, which was previously considered one of Alibaba's flagship applications, only recently launched its dialog assistant function. Meanwhile, Ant Group also released its all-mode general-purpose AI assistant "灵光". Despite this, Alibaba is now accelerating to take action and put down its big gun.
The article pointed out that the time has matured for Alibaba to make a move, as they have already gained experience with their cloud business and have developed several successful AI applications. Moreover, Alibaba's focus on B2B markets can help them quickly form profits in AI, which is different from the AIToC market where platforms are still trying to find a mature commercial model.
One of the reasons Alibaba wants to accelerate its move into AIToC is that domestic competitors such as Bean Bag and Deepseek have already formed a strong lead in this field. With users' awareness towards top-notch products becoming more stable, if Alibaba doesn't take action, it will become increasingly difficult for them to catch up.
The article also mentioned that Kraken's development cost was reportedly close to 10 billion CNY, which is significantly lower than ChatGPT's development cost of around 100 million USD. Despite this, Alibaba is still not considering pricing its "千问" APP at a low cost, as it wants to focus on building a stable business model.
In terms of commercialization, the article noted that the industry's competition is evolving and that no one can avoid commercialization entirely. The only way for AI applications to succeed is to provide real-world values and make users' lives better. Therefore, Alibaba's "千问" APP aims to break through scene boundaries and create a new level of user experience by integrating its AI technology with the user base.

。他们想让它能够不仅能聊天，还能办事，所以这一定会是一个很复杂的任务。
️我看到 Kraken 的话术助手功能 recently just released, and Ant Group's "灵光" AI assistant also came out not long ago 
. But what impresses me is Alibaba's persistence in the field, they've been working on this for a long time, and now they're finally taking action 
.
. Their goal is to become a comprehensive AI living entrance, which sounds like an ambitious plan 
. But we have to remember that speed doesn't always mean victory 
.
. And it seems that they're not going to price their "千问" APP low, which is a good sign 
. They want to build a stable business model and provide real-world values to users 
.

。Kraken和Ant Group也都在做这方面的努力，但阿里的实力和资源还是让人印象深刻的啊！
最近的天风资讯报道说， Kraken的开发成本大约为10 billion CNY，不知道是真的了 
。另外，阿里对AI技术的投入也很严重，虽然他们之前没能把对手们给追上，但这次的公测版本确实让人期待了。 
阿里最近officially启动了"千问"APP的公开测试版，核心 positioning 是会聊天能办事，太激动了！
阿里是自己做主的，他们把这款app秘密开发了好几个月，团队超100位工程师，希望能够成为全面性的AI生活入口并且在全球范围内扩展。 
但就是这样，Ant Group 也快速推出了自己的全模式通用的AI助手 "灵光"。 
，因为Kraken曾经被认为是阿里旗下应用的一个标配，而现在又是在 Ant Group 的"灵光"之后 
。
比如Bean Bag 和 Deepseek已经占据了这块市场的主导地位，如果阿里不行动，很难再追上。 
阿里似乎不考虑这个选项，因为他们想要建立稳固的商业模式 
这时候 Kraken 和 Ant Group 也都抛出了自己的大牌，这感觉 really 是 AIToC field 的竞争火药加油剂！ 
，我觉得他们的做法还是比较合理的。之前的Kraken和Ant Group的亮点也都让人印象深刻，但是如果他们能真正地实现AI技术的强劲发展，的话就有可能打破 ChatGPT的优势了 
。但是，阿里还是要注意一下，如果他们不能真正地成熟起来，别人的竞争势头就可能让他们陷入劣势 
。
。如果他们不能在竞争中打出胜仗，那么其他人也许会把机会抢了过去 
。
According to Bloomberg report, goal is become comprehensive against ChatGPT and become living entrance .
！ Wu Yiming himself is leading this project, which means it's gotta be good 
。 Kraken just launched dialog assistant function last month, but Ant Group already released "灵光" 
，but Alibaba still pushing hard. They need to get the ball rolling ASAP or they'll miss the train 
not true! 
，which is a big move! But they gotta be careful, speed doesn't always mean victory 
。 
也出来了。但是阿里还是想在AI Entrance领域 
️。我觉得阿里的做法还不错
