The Labor chief Jim Webb watch a speech recognition deep learning artificial intelligence all part of the work done here at do USA the Silicon Valley arm of the Chinese Internet search giant. While we sure put Hong what I think we're in a unique position to see the best ideas in Silicon Valley and the best ideas from Beijing and to put them together to create things that no one else has seen yet to meet Andrew Inc. The mastermind behind Google Brain one of the most ambitious artificial intelligence projects to come out of Google X. ing made a big splash in 2014 when BYD you recruited him to run it Silicon Valley A.I. lab in Sunnyvale less than five miles away from Google headquarters. I'm really excited about the potential of A.I. to transform healthcare. I think there's a huge gap between what we can do and what we've accomplished so far so working hard. What's next is one of the first projects to emerge from BYD use deep learning unit a sort of RoboCop meets Web M.D. a medical doctor in an app called Ask a doctor what's Indian functional. Cause of glitches or not. The system really have a lot of intelligence built into it. First of all the speech part people can really talk to the through the app with the envelop to describe the ISE symptoms then the system will force to use deep speech to do with the voice recognition then that they can decide if they can meet they need to see a doctor. This is all part of CEO Robin Lee's grand vision for Biden's future in online to offline services or letting users connect with nearby businesses through their smartphones. It's a vision he believes in so deeply he's willing to bet billions of dollars. Risk investor relations and sacrifice profit today all without a money back guarantee on future growth can China we see your cell phone increasingly becoming a remote control for the physical environment around you. All of these things people are transacting so much more often online in China and us to prove his commitment to 0 2 0 Baidu is already tapped into its twelve million dollar cash pile on products like a personal assistant who has also made more than a dozen investments in the last two years including a one hundred sixty nine million dollar stake in New Omi Holdings a group buying one for onsite services in total. I do has set aside three point two billion dollars over the next three years for online off line research and that number is only expected to grow. I think if we could get speech recognition to a level where it was completely natural when you didn't have just like 90 percent accuracy but you had like 99 percent accuracy that would be totally transformative .
