一个应用，覆盖一万种场景：寻找AI落地“最优解”

TL;DR - Baidu introduced an AI4S “1+10+N” strategy centered on Famou, a self-evolving decision agent that combines LLM reasoning with evolutionary search. It targets complex optimization across scientific research and industrial operations.

• The initiative includes one agent platform, ten interdisciplinary research成果, and a scientist program supporting 100 researchers.
• Famou searches, evaluates, and iterates over candidate solutions under expert-defined objectives, constraints, and metrics.
• Reported applications include neural architecture design, theorem proving, robotics control, port scheduling, chip design, energy management, and risk modeling.
• In pine-disease detection, feature search reduced 107 candidates to about five, raised early-tree detection from 89.1% to 98.0%, and cut false positives from 13.6% to 5.1%.
