Baidu AI Cloud completed a research-and-development organizational adjustment in which Model-as-a-Service and the Qianfan (千帆) brand and related products moved into the Infrastructure Business Group. The former Platform Products Business Group was renamed the Agent Business Group.

Hou Zhenyu now leads the Infrastructure Business Group, which manages artificial-intelligence infrastructure and agent infrastructure. Yin Dawei leads the Agent Business Group, which focuses on agent products including Baidu Dazi (百度搭子), Miaoda (秒哒) and Famou (伐谋).

The Data Platform Department was renamed the Data Intelligence Department and moved into the Intelligent Applications Business Group led by Ruan Yu. That group manages products including Baidu Yijian (百度一见), Hogee and Shengsuan (胜算), as well as applications for transportation, finance and other industries; all three executives report directly to Baidu executive vice president and AI Cloud head Shen Dou.
