"The combination of creativity and technology is at the heart of iQIYI's DNA," said Mr. Liu during the event's "Cultural Innovation through Technology" session. "This is reflected in the fact that we,broadly speaking,aim to hire half of our employees to be research and development engineers,and the other half to be content and operation creatives. iQIYI's ability to effectively straddle these two worlds allows us to bring the best viewing experience to our users,while also improving content monetization,for example by using AI to produce scenario-based native advertising,which is more effective for brands and more enjoyable for viewers. Besides,iQIYI uses AI in the field of online entertainment,including intelligent content creation,production,automatic video tagging,distribution,playback,monetization and customer service."
