Baidu has announced a new partnership with Chinese start-up zaijia.com, with plans to roll out an AI-based home assistant robot.
Zaijia claims the robot, which can be controlled by a smartphone, will be able to answer questions and perform other tasks with a high-level of accuracy.
Known as "Xiaoya," the new personal-assistant robot is going to retail for around 32-hundred yuan.
For more on this, Shane Bigham spoke earlier with Mike Bastin, director of the China Business Center at Southampton Solent University in the UK.
