Baidu recently launched an AI digital human social app called Wen Xiao Yan, which is based on the ERNIE Bot. Users can swipe up and down in the “Discover” section to find their favorite digital human chat partners.

However, there are also disadvantages: it can become boring once the initial novelty wears off, the expressions and demeanor of the digital human can feel unnatural, and there is no support for creating a personalized digital human.
