Chapter 163: Tiantian Intelligent Search Engine

~7 min read 1,236 words

While Su Xin was concentrating on his research.

Inside a conference room at the Tianqi Software Company, located on the 25th floor of the Yonghui Building.

CEO of Tianqi Group Liu Qingli, President of Tianqi Software Company Song Yanyong, Technical Department Manager Hu Yuanzhang, and several top software engineer representatives were gathered there at this moment.

"In the internet age, information spreads explosively; people can learn about massive amounts of information without stepping out of their homes, relying solely on a connected device."

"But precisely because of this, information on the internet has become as vast as the sea; only by relying on search engines can one avoid losing their way and quickly find the information they need."

"The value of a search engine lies right here."

"It is also one of the most important and frequently used tools in the internet age, as well as the most important traffic gateway for the internet."

"However, traditional search engines can only retrieve information through keywords, ranking various results based on relevance or popularity."

"But these results are often inaccurate, and there are too many invalid results because internet information is too complex and numerous, making it difficult to distinguish truth from falsehood."

"Users need to discern from these results one by one and conduct secondary searches themselves to find the answers they want."

"For example..."

"We search for how much money Ma Feng has?"

Beside the large projection screen at the front of the conference room, a middle-aged man wearing a plaid shirt spoke earnestly and pressed the remote control in his hand.

Immediately, a Baidu search result page appeared on the projection screen.

The line of text in the search box was 'how much money does Ma Feng have'.

Below it, a large row of results consisted of densely packed links, containing all sorts of news, Q&As, and articles.

The middle-aged man continued:

"The sources of these results include official media, authoritative statistical agencies, as well as unknown local small media and self-media, and so on."

"The results are also all different."

"If we want to know the correct result, we often need to click on several result pages, and finally compare and discern them ourselves."

"It is both troublesome and impossible to guarantee accuracy."

"Of course, currently, several of the world's top manufacturers, including Baidu and Google, have upgraded to fourth-generation search engines based on Artificial Intelligence technology, which can automatically filter one answer from numerous results to present to the user."

"But if I may be so bold, apart from Tianqi Group, the so-called Artificial Intelligence technology of all other companies only has the simplest big data filtering function; it is fundamentally just a facade."

"The results presented by those so-called fourth-generation search engines that incorporate Artificial Intelligence technology are actually just based on user click volume and the frequency of the results' appearance to comprehensively evaluate and pin one of the search results to the top."

"It fundamentally lacks the ability to discern the results, so naturally, there is no talk of accuracy."

"And today..."

"This Tiantian Intelligent Search Engine we have developed is based on the powerful language logic of Tiantian Assistant; it is a generative interactive intelligent search engine that is about to subvert the world."

Speaking up to this point, the middle-aged man's face was already flushed with excitement.

The middle-aged man was clearly quite proud that the team he belonged to could develop such a subversive product.

Subsequently, he began to explain the new product.

"The so-called generative interactive intelligent search engine can be divided into three keywords."

"Generative, interactive, intelligent."

"Among them, the three words 'generative' refer to the fact that this search engine can automatically discern, summarize, and generate an answer based on various results searched on the internet."

"For example..."

As he spoke, he connected his mobile phone to the projection screen and began the demonstration.

He raised his phone slightly to his mouth and asked: "Tiantian, I want to go to Nanjiang Province for a trip tomorrow; what do I need to bring?"

His phone screen lit up and unlocked automatically, revealing an exquisite and concise search interface, and the words he spoke were quickly translated into text and presented in the search box.

Below the search box, a card-style result was displayed, showing a few lines of text just like a chat box—

You need to bring a thin sweater, a coat, an umbrella, and other personal daily necessities.

Most cities in Nanjiang Province will cool down by 5-8 degrees tomorrow, averaging about 10 degrees lower than Tianjing, and six of these cities will have light to moderate rain.

Below these few lines of text were the search results similar to a traditional search interface.

Beside the conference table.

Liu Qingli could not help but nod secretly.

Even if she did not understand the technology, she could see that such search capability was much stronger and much more intelligent than Baidu and Google.

At the front, the middle-aged man explained:

"The core logic of the search engines currently on the market is to filter out content links that match the answer as much as possible for the user from the vast sea of information on the internet."

"Similar to my question just now, the answer needs to consider timeliness; there is certainly no suitable answer on the internet. At most, there are some articles that provide some suggestions based on the local climate and cultural environment, which have universality and are equivalent to general travel guides."

"When a user asks this question, the result will present this travel guide."

"This is the limitation of traditional search engines."

"But a generative search engine will automatically filter, discern, and integrate based on the massive information on the internet to specifically generate a result that best meets the requirements and present it directly to me."

"Because it is aimed at generation, the results are often more accurate and more effective."

"The second keyword is 'interactive'."

"It means that it can ask follow-up questions more deeply based on the previous questions and results."

"For example..."

The middle-aged man raised his phone again and said:

"I want to go to a place with temples, and the weather should be better; where is a good place to go?"

An answer was immediately generated below—

You can go to Qingsong City in Nanjiang Province.

The weather in Qingsong City and surrounding areas will be sunny tomorrow. It is home to the nationally famous Hongma Temple, about 1,100 kilometers away from your current location. It is recommended to travel by plane or high-speed rail. Suitable flight and high-speed rail tickets are as follows...

Following that were several ticket purchasing links.

The middle-aged man explained again:

"I didn't interrupt the Q&A just now, so it will combine the previous context to answer further, filtering for tourist attractions in Nanjiang Province with suitable weather tomorrow according to the previous requirements."

"This saves me from having to add so many keywords again when I ask."

"Some people need to ask questions that are more complex and detailed, and they can use this interactive method to go deeper bit by bit to find the answer that best meets their requirements."

"As for the final two words, 'Intelligent', they represent the most essential difference between an intelligent search engine and a traditional search engine, and this is also the greatest advantage of the Tiantian Intelligent Search Engine."
