Baidu sues Apple, app developers over fake Ernie bots FMTNews FMTBusiness
SHANGHAI: Chinese search engine giant Baidu has filed lawsuits against “relevant” app developers and Apple Inc over fake copies of its Ernie bot app available on Apple’s app store.
The company’s artificial intelligence-powered Ernie bot, launched last month, has been touted as China’s closest answer to the US-developed chatbot ChatGPT. Baidu said it had lodged lawsuits in Beijing Haidian People’s Court against the developers behind the counterfeit applications of its Ernie bot and the Apple company.
“At present, Ernie does not have any official app,” Baidu said in a statement late yesterday posted on its official “Baidu AI” WeChat account.“Until our company’s official announcement, any Ernie app you see from App Store or other stores are fake,” it said.A Reuters search today found there were still at least four apps bearing the Chinese-language name of the Ernie bot, all fake, in Apple’s App Store.In its statement, Baidu also warned against people selling access codes.
