Recently, the DouBao large language model has welcomed its brand new version 1.6, marking another leap in its comprehensive capabilities. In core areas such as reasoning, mathematics, and instruction-following, DouBao 1.6 has achieved significant performance improvements while greatly reducing the barriers for user adoption, driving the rapid application of AI Agents in industries such as consumer electronics, automobiles, and finance.
According to the latest released data, DouBao 1.6 has ranked among the global leaders in complex reasoning, competitive-level mathematics, multi-turn dialogue, and instruction-following tests. For instance, in the evaluation based on Beijing Haidian District's simulated college entrance exam papers, DouBao 1.6 improved the science score by 154 points and the liberal arts score by 90 points compared to last year. This achievement has attracted considerable attention from many enterprises. The daily average token usage of the DouBao large language model has grown from 12.7 trillion tokens in March to 16.4 trillion tokens at the end of May.
While maintaining its market leadership position, DouBao 1.6 continues to offer price advantages through innovative pricing models. For example, within the 0-32K input range, the input cost of DouBao 1.6 is only 0.8 yuan per million tokens, with an output cost of 8 yuan per million tokens, making the overall cost one-third of its previous version. The charge for every thousand tokens of Seedance1.0pro is only 0.015 yuan, providing users with a more economical option.
The innovation of the DouBao large language model also lies in its multi-modal capabilities, covering video, images, voice, music, and other fields, bringing new intelligent experiences to enterprise users. Tan Dai, President of Volcano Engine, stated that the core of the AI era is Agent, which can autonomously perceive and plan to complete more complex tasks. Many industry clients agree with this view. For example, Mercedes-Benz has introduced the DouBao AI large language model into its new car models to better understand the needs of Chinese customers.
DouBao 1.6 is also accelerating the practical application of Agents, reshaping user experience. For instance, users can use DouBao 1.6 to automatically book hotels by operating the browser or organize shopping receipts into Excel tables. Moreover, the collaboration with Luckin Coffee has brought the AI ordering intelligence body to the market, achieving a completely new consumption experience through voice orders.
Tan Dai emphasized that reducing token costs is crucial for efficient Agent operations. The breakthroughs of DouBao 1.6 allow enterprises to build truly intelligent AI Agents at low costs, laying the foundation for future intelligent development.
