刚刚，中国AI交卷！40年难题56分钟破局，AI不再「学习」

TL;DR - Baidu launched its “Famou” self-evolving agent and an AI4S strategy spanning research and industry. The system searches and evaluates candidate solutions to complex optimization problems rather than merely predicting from learned data.

• In pine-disease detection, Famou reduced 107 candidate features to about five in 56 minutes, raising early detection from 89.1% to 98.0%.
• Its workflow combines problem definition, candidate generation, tool-based evaluation, and iterative evolution toward better solutions.
• Reported applications include Lean theorem proving, energy scheduling, materials and depression research, port operations, traffic control, and financial feature discovery.
• Baidu says more than 3,000 companies have trialed the platform and plans to collaborate with 100 scientists on additional AI4S projects.
