Baido's Wenxin Big Model ENIRE Speed and ENIRE Lite Now Available for Free: Accelerating AI Application Proliferation

As competition intensifies in the field of artificial intelligence, Baidu's Wenxin large model has announced that its two flagship models, ENIRE Speed and ENIRE Lite, will be made fully free for users. This decision accelerates the widespread adoption of AI applications and is poised to have a profound impact on the industry.

Recently, tech giants such as ByteDance and Alibaba Cloud have adjusted their large model pricing to enhance market competitiveness. ByteDance's Doubao model claims to be 99.3% cheaper than the industry standard, while Alibaba Cloud’s Qwen-Long has seen a 97% price reduction. In contrast, Baidu's move to offer its two primary models for free is notably more aggressive, directly providing users with access at no cost.

ENIRE Speed, Baidu's latest high-performance language model developed in 2024, boasts exceptional general capabilities and reasoning performance, making it suitable for custom adjustments. ENIRE Lite, on the other hand, is a lightweight model designed for efficient reasoning, ideal for use on AI acceleration cards with limited processing power. The free availability of these models will give developers and businesses more options, lower the barriers to AI technology adoption, and foster innovation and growth.

This initiative not only highlights Baidu's leadership in the AI sector but also underscores its commitment to promoting the widespread use and application of AI technology. By introducing high-quality, free models, Baidu strengthens its market position and paves the way for progress across the industry.

Looking ahead, as technology continues to evolve and application fields expand, AI is set to bring even greater convenience and benefits to all sectors.
