Cheng Caohong, CTO of DingTalk, shared the enhancement of DingTalk's AI base capabilities at the meeting: "AI has not only brought changes in product form, development methods, and integration methods, but also brought changes in data consumption methods. In the past few years, DingTalk has helped enterprises solve the problems of limited business scenario coverage, insufficient data quality and density by vigorously developing low-code products and ecosystems, and now AI has further lowered the threshold for digitalization while activating the consumption and flow of data in a new way. ”
He believes that the uniqueness of DingTalk AI is that in addition to creating and cultivating high-quality AI agents with a low threshold, it can also achieve "package allocation", and AI assistants can join various collaboration scenarios such as DingTalk organizational address book, groups, meetings, and business processes, just like a real employee "onboarding", and continue to grow in high-frequency collaboration. In the future, a network of collaboration between people, systems, hardware, and AI assistants will be formed, eliminating information silos, accelerating data circulation, reshaping the productivity of individuals and organizations, and continuously creating deeper value.
At the meeting, DingTalk and CBN Business School jointly released the "Everyone is a Creator - DingTalk AI Assistant White Paper" (hereinafter referred to as the "White Paper"), which pointed out that more than 50% of AI assistants on DingTalk are created in education scenarios, and the post-00s and post-10s have become the "AI native" generation;
