Chinese internet giant Baidu is now the world's leader in a critical AI segment for understanding human language, dethroning Microsoft and Google. Baidu, China's biggest search engine, got the "highest ever score" in a test aimed at measuring AI language processing, MIT Technology Review reported, underscoring accelerating competition for the most efficient and human-like AI. The test is called General Language Understanding Evaluation (Glue). While an average person score around 87 points on the test, Baidu was the first to go beyond 90 with its AI system called Ernie, Review reported. Ernie was influenced by Google's Bert and both are inspired by Sesame Street characters.
