Relevant staff members from ZTE have provided insights into the specifics of their collaboration with ByteDance on the 'Doubao Mobile Phone'. The decision for both entities to join forces stems from three key factors:
Firstly, strategic alignment. Both companies view AI-powered smartphones as the future trend and share a commitment to the principles of open innovation.
Secondly, complementary strengths. ZTE Nubia brings to the table a wealth of AI technology expertise and robust hardware engineering capabilities. In contrast, ByteDance's Doubao large - scale model can enhance the high - end AI experience on terminal devices.
Thirdly, alignment with industry trends. Embracing open collaboration is seen as an inevitable path forward. ZTE firmly upholds the philosophy that 'openness drives innovation' and has already received numerous cooperation invitations. The large - scale model will be seamlessly integrated into four key domains: network infrastructure, computing power, home services, and personal services. On the terminal front, multi - model collaboration will be facilitated through the Nebula Intelligence Platform. The deep integration of AI functions represents one of ZTE's future differentiated strategies, aiming to further strengthen the synergy between AI and hardware.
Meanwhile, both parties have underscored that privacy and security form the bedrock of their cooperation and serve as the fundamental prerequisite for realizing the vision of 'AI for All'.
