Together with Volcano Engine, ASUS leverages large models and vector databases to launch AI functional notebooks

author:ASUS Southeast

As generative AI technology continues to advance and its widespread application in the consumer market, more and more consumers are interested in this technology. Especially for the younger generation, which is closely related to the development of the Internet, generative AI has become a powerful assistant in their work and learning.

According to Dentsu's 2024 Generative AI Consumer Survey Report, Gen Z consumers are 56% curious about generative AI, the highest among all age groups. Other generations of consumers are between 42-45% interested in generative AI.

In this era of rapid technological development, many manufacturers are actively launching products equipped with artificial intelligence to meet the needs of consumers, especially young consumers. Starting from this need, ASUS has introduced the "Douding AI Assistant", an artificial intelligence service in the "ASUS A Bean" brand series of notebooks, which can have natural conversations with users, answer questions, write copywriting on demand, and even provide personalized suggestions based on users' personal characteristics. However, in the process of advancing intelligence, how to make full use of large model technology to accurately capture and meet the individual needs of young consumers has become a key challenge for ASUS.

Join forces to meet the individual needs of young consumers

The efficient operation of AI assistants is inseparable from the support of large models, but there are still some differences in the performance of large models on the current market. Some large models may have "hallucinations" when interacting with people, that is, wrong answers, which will undoubtedly have a negative impact on the user's experience.

In order to deeply realize the synergy between software and hardware, a convenient new life driven by technology, and meet the pursuit of personalized experience among young people, Douding AI assistant needs to accurately understand and generate human language with the help of high-performance large model technology, so as to achieve natural and smooth interaction with humans. On top of this, the Douding AI assistant will provide a variety of AI services such as question answering, copywriting, and personalized suggestions.

Among the many large models, which one better fits the brand positioning of the ASUS A Bean series notebook and meets its needs? After several rounds of rigorous technical testing and in-depth comparison, ASUS believes that the byte large model provided by Volcano Engine has outstanding technical level, excellent model capabilities, stable and reliable services, and the necessary compliance for commercial operations, making it an ideal partner.

Supported by the base of the large model, the Douding AI assistant incarnates the user's "smart girlfriend"

The byte model provided by Volcano Engine has excellent language perception capabilities, can efficiently complete various language tasks, and shows extremely high performance in various applications such as dialogue interaction, information acquisition, and creation assistance through natural language interaction. At present, the byte model has been widely used in more than 50 business lines within ByteDance, covering more than 20 sub-industries, especially in text classification, summary summary, information extraction, role playing, copywriting and other aspects.

With the support of the technical base of the byte model, the Douding AI assistant has excellent conversation, finding, and creation capabilities:

Conversational communication: Users can ask Douding simple questions, such as "What are the characteristics of OLED screens?" "Douding will reply quickly with relevant answers.

Data Search: Whether it's professional knowledge retrieval, information query or machine skills, Bean Ding can respond smoothly and naturally and provide answers efficiently.

Copywriting: Users only need to enter keywords and style requirements, such as "ASUS A Bean Notebook" + "Xiaohongshu Style", and Douding can use the mature byte large model technology to quickly create marketing copy related to ASUS A Bean Notebook and in line with the style of Xiaohongshu.

With the help of the byte model, the Douding AI assistant has become an intimate assistant for users with diversified functions. Whether it's dealing with day-to-day tasks or work needs, it increases efficiency and provides convenient assistance.

The mature vector database makes the answers smoother and more precise

In addition to the performance of the model itself, ViKingDB, a vector database of volcano engines, also plays a vital role in the reason why the byte model can efficiently support the Douding AI assistant.

ViKingDB is a database system built on the cloud infrastructure of Volcano Engine, which can be used to produce, store, index, and analyze massive vector data generated by machine learning models. The database has a variety of self-developed indexing algorithms developed by the volcano engine, and can be widely used in many different fields such as intelligent Q&A, intelligent search, recommendation system, and data deduplication by precipitating ByteDance's large-scale and multi-scenario practical experience in multiple business lines, and supports tens of billions of vector retrieval.

The FAQ files on the ASUS website are efficiently stored in the ViKingDB vector database of the Volcano engine, which not only analyzes, stores and indexes the vector relationships between questions and answers, but also uses vector similarity retrieval technology to ensure that when users ask questions to Douding, the system can quickly and accurately locate the questions, retrieve the relevant results, and hand them over to the byte model for refined summary.

The combination of the byte large model and the ViKingDB vector database fully demonstrates the ability of Volcano Engine to deal with big data and deep learning problems. This combination not only significantly improves the quality of the answers, making them more precise and detailed, but also greatly enhances the user experience by locating questions and generating responses more quickly.

With the support of the Volcano Engine, in March 2024, the Douding AI assistant has been officially put into use on the Adou 14 2024 ADOL14VA and Adou 14 Air M5406ADOL models of the "ASUS A Bean" series, providing consumers with a series of capabilities such as chat companionship, question answering, and all-round writing to meet their needs for artificial intelligence.

Volcano engine FORCE prime mover assembly

On May 15, the "2024 Spring Volcano Engine FORCE Conference" will focus on the theme of AI, with large model applications as the core and AI implementation as the guide. At the meeting, ByteDance's self-developed large model will be officially released, and the volcano engine large model service platform - Volcano Ark will also usher in a major upgrade. At the same time, the conference will also bring the best practices of large models in various industry scenarios, and explain the ecological strategy of the volcano engine model in detail. Experts and enterprise technology leaders from the fields of automobiles, mobile terminals, finance, consumption, and the Internet will also discuss the transformation opportunities in the AI era with the guests.
