In addition to enhanced user experience,the use of this technology combined with smart thematic tagging results in more effective monetization,as we match the most appropriate adverts to the content on our platform."

iQIYI's AI capabilities are employed throughout the content production process,with AI-enabled automatic subtitle generation and video search functionalities,drastically improving editing speeds for iQIYI in-house produced variety shows such as The Rap of China and Idol Hits. Casting for shows is made more efficient due to the employment of intelligent matching algorithms and the company's actor database,with AI further helping to improve user experience through functions such as 8K VR streaming playback,adaptive bitrate streaming playback,ZoomAI super resolution,as well as 'smart bullet' comments. "iQIYI will continue improving our customer experience,with big data and machine learning serving to categorize content as part of our new multi-faceted 'heat rating' system," said Mr. Liu.
