Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the intense competition among AI application companies during the Spring Festival, particularly focusing on the battle for user engagement on WeChat, where Tencent's "Yuanbao," Baidu's "Wenxin," and Alibaba's "Qianwen" are vying for dominance in the market [3][4][5].
