Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence (BIGAI) created the world's first virtual child-image figure named Tong Tong, based on artificial general intelligence (AGI) technology, said the institute in Beijing on Wednesday.

Tong Tong has been trained using the TongOS2.0 AGI operating system and TongPL2.0 programming language – a self-developed learning and reasoning framework. This training equips Tong Tong with abilities in active vision, comprehension, communication, and many other attributes.

"Tong Tong possesses a complete mindset and value system similar to that of a three or four-year-old child. Currently, it is still undergoing rapid iterations and will enter various aspects of our lives," said Zhu Songchun, director of BIGAI.

Tong Tong has the potential to assist in real-life scenarios in the future, such as smart homes, health management, education and training, and interactions. According to BIGAI, Tong Tong can provide users with a more intelligent, personalized, and adaptable industry digital intelligent human.

"AGI is the most powerful driver of new quality productive forces," Zhu added.

In addition to strengthening research and development in high-tech innovation, BIGAI has also focused on cultivating talent in the field of AGI.
