In 2022, virtual digital people have "gone out of the circle" and become one of the top topics. As representatives of digital people, Xi Jiajia and Du Xiaoxiao show the diverse abilities of Baidu digital people. Through the blessing of AI capabilities, Baidu digital people have also integrated into the marketing field more comprehensively and deeply, and have been applied by brands to various business scenarios, opening up a new trend of brand marketing in the Web3.0 era. The size of the digital human market will reach 200 billion yuan in 2022 and is expected to reach nearly 300 billion yuan in 2025.

Before the 2022 Baidu World Congress, as the first digital human talk show anchor with goods, Du Xiaoxiao joined hands with Gong Jun digital people to open the meta-universe AI good talk show - Crooked Neck Mountain (Web3) open "sell", live streaming a series of Baidu AI-related products, and achieved very good commercial results: the unmanned excavator system with a price of 200,000 yuan was "second empty" as soon as it was on the shelves; 300,000 yuan rent for one year of the meta-universe virtual land, 3 seconds to sell out.

At this conference, Baidu also launched a digital people live broadcast platform, focusing on e-commerce live broadcasting, brand marketing, interactive entertainment and other fields, to achieve ultra-realistic digital people 24-hour pure AI live broadcast. Compared with live anchors, digital people have strong controllability and stable image. It is foreseeable that live streaming is quietly entering a "new era".

In addition, the fragments of "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map", one of China's top ten famous paintings, which are stored in the Zhejiang Provincial Museum and the National Palace Museum in Taipei, have been completely restored. What completed this "miracle" was Baidu's AI technology, and AI also inscribed a poem for this purpose: "A peak and a hundred trees greeted, and the heavens and waters combined with the love of both sides of the strait." Not only that, everyone can make up for the missing part of the "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" according to their own ideas. In addition, Baidu AI digital person Xi Jiajia also showed his painting skills on the spot, completing the exam question of "postmodern sense of colorful hazy cat" proposed by Sabine.

Of course, there are other Baidu black technologies, such as the sixth generation of mass production unmanned vehicles - Apollo RT6, which is a mass production car independently developed and forward designed by Baidu for future travel, supporting two modes with or without steering wheel, and currently achieving 100% vehicle specification level and vehicle full redundancy system. Based on the breakthrough of autonomous driving technology, the Apollo RT6 will be the first to be put into use on the Radish Run in 2023, and can be deployed tens of thousands of vehicles across the country. Based on the reduction of the cost of unmanned vehicles, the future is half cheaper than the current taxi, and the number of radish fast running orders has accumulated more than one million. In the future, Baidu will continue to explore the cooperation path with China Aerospace, and will soon release the world's first aerospace metacosm.
