recently, Qualcomm's new generation flagship processor Snapdragon 888 officially debuted, attracting the attention of many insiders and outsiders. This flagship processor has undergone major upgrades in many aspects. It is worth noting that it is equipped with a new sixth-generation Qualcomm AI engine. AI performance and energy efficiency have been greatly improved, reaching an astonishing 26 trillion operations per second. It is quite eye-catching. When Snapdragon 888 officially debuted, many AI functions of Baidu’s input method have also officially matured, adapted to the development of the new AI era, and are expected to change the input experience in all aspects and become one of the winners of the new era.
Baidu input method penetrates the powerful AI algorithm into all aspects of the input experience, even if the basic typing input is not let go, the new sliding input can effectively improve the input efficiency. Baidu Input Method introduced Attention technology to the sliding input field for the first time in China, which greatly improved the accuracy of sliding input, surpassing the industry's highest level by 15%. As for the actual input experience, the author thinks that the sliding input of Baidu input method is very suitable for a large number of users who use mobile phones to type. It can simplify the input operation very well, and it is not easy to get tired after long typing.
In addition to basic keyboard input, handwriting input is an important supplement to usual input. Baidu input method has introduced a variety of very practical handwriting methods, including single writing, overlapping writing, and continuous writing, which can meet the needs of different users. And on this basis, Baidu input method makes full use of its advantages in AI algorithms, brings AI free handwriting function, combines multiple handwriting methods in one, and uses Baidu's self-developed flying paddle framework to use Baidu nlp field The top deep learning model allows users to write freely while ensuring accuracy. From the author's actual experience, the AI free handwriting of Baidu Input Method has greatly improved the efficiency. Even users who did not use handwriting before can give it a try.
In addition to handwriting and keyboard input, voice input has become the choice of more users today. The Chinese-English Free Talk of Baidu Input Method breaks the boundary between Chinese and English very well and creates a smooth full sensory input experience. Thanks to Baidu’s powerful AI capabilities and mature algorithms, Baidu’s input method not only accurately distinguishes Chinese and English, but also responds very quickly and accurately when actually experiencing Chinese and English free speaking. There is basically no need for secondary adjustments, so that users can Better to communicate with domestic and foreign netizens.
Chinese and English speaking freely is excellent, but for many users, it is their biggest pain point that they must use Mandarin when inputting voice. Under such circumstances, Baidu input method not only supports local dialects such as Cantonese, Sichuan dialect, Hefei dialect, etc., it can meet the needs of people using dialect voice input, and it also brings very practical dialect freedom. In the case of enabling dialects to speak freely, whether we use Mandarin or local dialects, we can be well recognized by Baidu Input Method, which meets our needs for using voice input at will.
Since the digital age, the development of hardware and software are often complementary to each other. Without mature software algorithms, hardware improvements are often not enough. With the debut of Snapdragon 888, the AI capabilities of Baidu’s input method are expected to be better utilized. I believe it will bring us a smarter input experience, which is worth experiencing
for most people.
