Ant Group, the fintech affiliate of Alibaba Group Holding, made its foray into Jarvis-like territory when it launched on Thursday the Zhixiaobao app – a so-called life assistant that can help users order meals, hail taxis, book tickets, and discover local dining and entertainment options, while accessing third-party services in the firm’s Alipay payment platform more easily. Alibaba owns the South China Morning Post.
Waow, that’s amazing! So cool, so exciting! We’ve never seen anyone try anything like this ever before!
I think as a country they don’t need “in” on AI. They already do lots of AI, robotics… Published language models that are on par with what’s publicly available elsewhere, use quite some electricity for AI compared to other countries… So I think it’s just the next AI thing, this time from China. And probably part of some strategy to end up in a total surveillance, techno dystopia. Now they need to connect it to WeChat and all of their camera surveillance and they’re almost there.

Yeah, it’s so much novel. And Jarvis - of course - is the only scifi to compare things to.
Translation: We want in on the AI grift before the bubble pops!
