Baidu Launches ERNIE 5.5 Flash Preview
Chinese tech giant Baidu has launched the ERNIE 5.5 Flash Preview, a large language model with 280 billion parameters and a context window of up to 1 million tokens. The model uses a sparse MoE architecture to reduce running costs while maintaining knowledge base capabilities. It is designed for coding, 3D modeling, and content creation, with competitive benchmark results reported by Baidu. The Preview API is live on Baidu's Qianfan platform and will be open-sourced under the Apache 2.0 license by November 25, 2026.
