Read moreOn November 11, Ant Group’s personal AI assistant Lingguang announced the latest data: Since the launch of Lingguang 2.0 on October 27, the cumulative number of managed transactions has exceeded 3 million, and the cumulative number of tasks has exceeded 11 million. This is another disclosure of transaction custody data since the launch of Lingguang 2.0. On November 5, Lingguang announced that it had hosted more than 1.16 million transactions within a week of its launch, performed more than 3.6 million tasks cumulatively, and had more than 20 million users. Different from traditional AI product indicators such as user size and number of conversations, transaction hosting volume measures how many things a user has handed over to AI for continuous follow-up. Its growth reflects that the use of personal AI assistants is extending from instant question and answer and single task execution to long-term transaction management. The key to this change is that AI shifts from responding to instructions to continuously fulfilling contracts. Traditional AI assistants usually complete an interaction after the user initiates a question or instruction. The "Help Me Manage" function launched by Lingguang 2.0 allows users to hand over matters that require long-term attention to AI after authorization, which will continuously monitor the status and proactively remind and perform corresponding operations when conditions are met or critical nodes are reached. For example, parents can ask Lingguang to continue to follow the DingTalk class group and summarize important notifications and to-do items; consumers can host ticket price change monitoring and automatic membership renewal reminders; users can also connect smart home devices to let AI automatically perform operations based on preset conditions. What these scenarios have in common is that the task does not end in a conversation, but requires the AI to maintain attention and take timely action without continued user intervention. Supporting this capability are long-term task scheduling, cross-session context management and external service connection capabilities. As of November 3, Lingguang has connected to more than 40 external connectors such as Alipay, DingTalk, Quark, Feishu, etc., expanding the scope of AI services to work,

Read moreOn November 10, Manulife Life Insurance (International) Co., Ltd. ("Manulife Hong Kong") and Ant Health jointly announced the launch of a new cross-border medical support service for eligible Manulife Hong Kong customers. Manulife Hong Kong has also become the first insurance company in Hong Kong to cooperate with Ant Health to provide cross-border medical direct payment. It is understood that eligible customers in Manulife Hong Kong can activate the electronic "medical insurance card" provided by Ant Health on AlipayHK, search for designated hospitals, and arrange outpatient treatment through the 24-hour appointment hotline. If the doctor recommends designated treatment, such as hospitalization, day surgery or outpatient cancer treatment, the customer can apply for the cross-border commercial insurance direct payment service - eligible medical expenses will be settled directly by the insurance company with the hospital.

The new service integrates these key links, allowing customers to more easily grasp relevant arrangements, thereby enjoying a smoother, more convenient, clearer and more transparent cross-border medical treatment experience. Li Xuming, chief health director of Manulife Hong Kong and Macau, said, "As customers' needs are no longer limited to traditional protection, we are committed to creating more coherent health solutions, allowing customers to more easily obtain the medical services they need and control the entire medical treatment process.
