Chinese search engine to launch self-driving bus in 2019
Baidu, China's equivalent of Google, has launched a new artificial intelligence chip, which will power its upcoming self-driving buses. The company unveiled its Kunlun AI chip last week, which will not only be used in autonomous vehicles, but also be employed in data centres, where it will do natural language processing, crunch search rankings and other tasks. According to Bloomberg, the company has said it is increasing production of its Apolong self-driving bus.
