Specialised data sets can make AI services more helpful to vulnerable users who have become progressively reliant on them for emotional support and health assistance, according to Lu Shiyu, a senior researcher at Tencent Research Institute (TRI).
Last year, Lu’s team and researchers at the University of Science and Technology Beijing tested leading US and Chinese-developed LLMs, including Tencent’s own Hunyuan model. They found that all the models needed to improve their handling of topics such as sex education and other subjects relevant to China’s 69 million left-behind children – kids, often in rural areas, whose parents migrate to cities for work.
“To make an impact, the next step is to work with major AI model developers that have many users,” Lu said.
