Baidu Intelligent Cloud has recently undertaken a strategic realignment of its organizational framework and business scope. The erstwhile Platform Products Business Unit has been elevated to the Agent Business Unit, seamlessly integrating the MaaS business and the Qianfan brand into the newly minted Infrastructure Business Unit. Concurrently, the Data Platform Department has undergone a transformation, now known as the Data Intelligence Department, and has been incorporated into the freshly established Intelligent Applications Business Unit. Post-reorganization, three principal business segments, helmed by Hou Zhenyu, Yin Dawei, and Ruan Yu respectively, have been formed, all directly reporting to Shen Dou. Presently, the AI business stands as the cornerstone of Baidu's growth trajectory, with AI-centric revenue surpassing 50% in the second quarter, and GPU cloud service revenue witnessing a staggering 283% year-on-year surge. Within the office environment, the internal office agent, dodo, has amalgamated with the Baidu Dazi team, marking a transition in the Agent business from fragmented exploration to focused breakthroughs.
