At the 2025 Winter Force Conference, which was organized by Volcengine, Tan Dai, the President of Volcengine, took the stage to officially introduce Doubao Large Model 1.8. In the realm of AI development, this new model represents a significant leap forward. It comes with upgraded multimodal agent capabilities, enabling it to seamlessly process and integrate information from multiple modalities such as text, images, and audio. Moreover, it supports 256K ultra-long contexts, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding and analysis of extensive data sets. Its native API context management feature ensures efficient handling and organization of context information during API interactions.

When it comes to tackling complex tasks, this model truly shines. It is adept at managing multi-step tasks, breaking them down into smaller, manageable sub-tasks and executing them in a logical and efficient manner.
