Alipay has launched the "Intelligent Agent Emergence Award" with an annual investment of 10 million yuan to encourage developers to create useful and interesting life-scenario intelligent agents. The award aims to foster an intelligent agent ecosystem beyond mini-programs, enabling developers to build applications using natural language without coding, with opportunities for commercialization and integration with Alipay's 1 billion users. Alipay's AI assistant, "Abao," has also been significantly upgraded to act as a universal intelligent agent across various devices and platforms, facilitating both immediate needs and long-term tasks.
