Looks like Baidu’s ERNIE just beat GPT and Gemini in the latest benchmarks. They’re saying it’s a multimodal jump—so it can handle text, images, maybe even video better than the others. I skimmed the numbers; the gaps aren’t tiny. It feels like the AI race just got a new front‑runner.
I think this could shake up who gets the next big cloud contracts. If Baidu keeps pushing, we might see more Chinese players in the mainstream AI market. On the flip side, I’m not sure if the performance boost translates to real‑world usefulness right away. Benchmarks are great, but they’re still a controlled test.
What do you think? Will ERNIE’s win change the AI landscape, or is it just another headline?
