With the application of DeepSeek, Baidu Maps has completed its deep integration with DeepSeek-R1. Users can directly ask questions in the search bar, such as inquiring 'What fun places are there in Zhengzhou?' By selecting the DeepSeek tag, they can receive answers that have been deeply analyzed. These answers not only provide recommended attractions but also include relevant addresses, allowing users to navigate with a click. As a result, the efficiency of obtaining information while using the map has greatly improved. It's worth mentioning that Baidu has become one of the successors to Tencent.

Baidu Maps has launched its brand new version 19.0.0, hailed as the next generation of AI maps. The most striking feature is the AI guide function, allowing users to engage in real conversations with AI. The AI guide function offers free customizable voice packs, enhancing the personalized experience. The new AI map is reconstructed based on the Wenxin large model, enabling multi-turn natural language interactions. Baidu Maps will continue to improve and upgrade in the future, providing users with smarter and more convenient travel services.

Baidu will release the newly upgraded version V19 of Baidu Maps on October 17. This version will provide new AI interaction and navigation features. Baidu Maps V19 is rebuilt on the Wenxin large model, introducing a completely new AI guide and a one-sentence wake-up feature. It also supports personalized search and recommendations.
