ByteDance has dismantled its gaming business Zhaoxi Guangnian and established Flow, an AI innovation team under its umbrella. Flow has launched voice assistant products Doubao and Cici in China and overseas, respectively. The latter has recently been rolled out in 36 countries and regions abroad, emphasizing free usage, supporting 12 languages, and being trained on the GPT-3 model. Some analyses suggest that AI assistants serve as a significant new entry point for traffic, and ByteDance aims to capture the emerging overseas markets through continuous product and technology iterations.
