Larry Page’s Search Vision is Almost Here! When I joined Google in 2005, Larry Page shared his vision of a search engine where users could ask any question naturally and receive the right answer instantly. At the time, it seemed both visionary and nearly impossible. Today, we’re closer to that reality with the launch of a new mobile app called BeaGo. Here’s what makes BeaGo stand out: * One answer per query. Say goodbye to endless back-and-forth navigation in mobile browsers. * Superior factual accuracy. BeaGo statistically outperforms other AI search engines in delivering reliable information. * Embedded images. Results are enhanced with images to make answers more informative and engaging. Download BeaGo now and experience it for yourself: * iOS: https://lnkd.in/gDVxXt7b (or just search for "Beago") * Android: https://lnkd.in/gqRku8RE (or just search for "Beago") Please note: BeaGo is currently available for markets outside China and Hong Kong. Users in China can try 点线搜索. I'd love to hear your feedback. Feel free to leave a comment below, and I'll respond. Below is a video of some search examples:

Driving down inference cost is the most important thing to enabling great AI-first apps. @YI01_Yi's new model Yi-Lightning is ranked #6 (https://lnkd.in/gvCSxTxz) in the world, and costs only about 3-6% cost of its peers.

Incredible spending on GenAI by companies such as OpenAI, Google, and xAI has created a lopsided ecosystem that’s bottom heavy and top light. I predict that in 2025, a new approach will emerge that can change all that. In my latest The-@WIRED-World-in-2025 article:

01.ai (零一万物 ) is now global #3 LLM player on the latest LMSys Chatbot Arena (https://lnkd.in/gX5yaNSV) -- only after OpenAI and Google. Our latest flagship model ⚡️Yi-Lightning also surpassed GPT4o (May release) for the first time. Yi-Lightning is a small MOE model that is extremely fast and inexpensive. Yi-Lightning costs only $0.14 (RMB0.99 ) /mil tokens (vs GPT4o $4.40) https://lnkd.in/gaE47FQg. Yi-Lightning's performance is tied with Grok-2, but Yi-Lightning was pre-trained on 2000 H100s for 1 month, costing about $3 million, a tiny fraction of Grok-2.

Prompt: "Make a deck titled 'How to Make a Great Presentation' detailing essential principles to create a compelling, organized, and engaging business slide deck. Use graphs and illustrations when appropriate. List the 'Do's' and 'Don'ts' for each key point using comparison tables. Cater to general business readers." My colleagues asked, "Why are you so persistent in perfecting a presentation?" Because no matter to which audience I'm speaking, if they are giving me time, I want to make sure I capture each second of their attention.

Don't wait for SearchGPT! Try BeaGo, a smart AI search available available NOW. It is higher in factuality, and richer in content than existing AI search. Download this IOS app at :https://lnkd.in/gDVxXt7b BeaGo provides the most usable mobile experience, bu giving just ONE SEARCH RESULT. On mobile, there isn't enough screen real estate to open multiple tabs for multiple tab results. Going back & forth to navigate the result page and the results is cumbersome and time-consuming. BeaGo answers have pictures, which makes the search result more informative and more interesting to read. See examples below. Leave a comment here on what you like or don't like about it. Thanks!

Starting your week with more slides to write? Our PopAi team just dropped "Slide Agent" to make presentations simple with AI 👉 Prompt > select template (300+) > AI generated draft > reformat (layout, charts, images, logos) > download in .pptx & edit to perfection. Most presentation tools or agents either stop at generating drafts or only do well in formatting. Consider PopAi a "ChatGPT+Canva" in one.

Decent-quality LLMs from China are really helping make GenAI affordable and accessible to the world through open source. Pursuing AGI with close models might be a winner-take-all game for U.S. big techs, but making AI more open will benefit researchers, students, entrepreneurs, and hobbyists in building AI that works for them.

In my book AI Superpowers, I predicted that US will lead breakthroughs, but China will be better and faster in engineering. Many people simplified that to be “China will beat US”. And many claimed I was wrong with GenAI. With the recent Deepseek releases, I feel vindicated.

Yet Yi-Lightning is a very small MoE model that is extremely fast and inexpensive ($0.14/million tokens. Yi-Lightning's performance is tied with xAI Grok-2, but it was trained on 2000 H100s for 1 month, demonstrating you don't need 100000 H100s to train a SOTA model.

My latest piece on the Financial Times about the Chinese LLM open-source advantage. Contrasted with the secretive development of LLMs in the US competing in a winner-takes-all battle to reach AGI, Chinese models offer a distinct pathway for progress in AI when they are forced to play catch-up. Through open technologies, the strategy might lead to a broader global reach.
