Chinese tech giant Tencent restructures AI product portfolio as competition heats up

Quick Summary:

Several Tencent apps – including QQ Browser, keyboard tool Sogou Pinyin and learning assistant Ima – have been moved to a different unit.

The reshuffle reflects a shift in Tencent’s AI strategy, as the company sharpens its focus on product experience and user feedback, according to Zhang Yi, founder and chief analyst at consultancy iiMedia.“Unlike smaller start-ups, Tencent needs to deploy its AI capabilities in various applications for better monetisation opportunities, rather than just going through prolonged testing,” Zhang said.

Alibaba owns the South China Morning Post.
