At Baidu World 2026, Baidu accelerated its high-end AI chip progress by a full year, putting its Kunlunxin M100 chip into active use while pulling the M300 and the 1,024-chip Tianchi supernode forward to 2027.

On the performance front, Baidu's new specialized hardware cuts multi-turn AI response delays by 90% and boosts system throughput sevenfold.

Meanwhile, CEO Robin Li gave a reality check on robotics, saying that "embodied AI today is roughly where autonomous driving was around 2016." Li was ready for years of hard grind before mass adoption.
