Tencent Holdings, a major player on the Chinese internet, is getting ready to introduce an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot after the Chinese government last month approved its use in public. The chatbot, powered by Tencent's own AI model "Hunyuan," wants to compete with other major internet companies in China that have already introduced their own AI chatbots.

China opens up its market to AI chatbots:

China has approved the use of AI chatbots in public as part of its drive to develop and utilize the technology. The Chinese government removed legislative barriers to the introduction of AI chatbots last month, enabling major internet firms like Baidu and Sense Time Group to launch their own AI chatbots last week. It is anticipated that Tencent's entry into the industry will increase competition in the field of AI chatbots.

Defining New AI Chatbot Development Horizons:

Tencent has been working hard for several months to establish its own AI model called "Hunyuan." The corporation showed its dedication to expanding AI technology last month when it announced its desire to increase internal testing of this model. Tencent had previously put up a specialized team to create a chatbot that was comparable to ChatGPT; at the time, it was known as "HunyuanAide."

Despite the announcement, Tencent's stock fell:

Tencent's foray into the market for AI chatbots marks a significant advancement for the business in its mission to stay at the forefront of technological innovation. The introduction of their AI chatbot highlights the growing significance of AI-driven solutions in a variety of fields, including customer service, content creation, and more, as well as the growing regulatory support for such technology in China.
