Recently, rumors about major changes in ByteDance's AI team have attracted widespread attention on the Internet. In response to this situation, Douyin Vice President Li Liang issued a formal statement through Weibo and clarified the relevant reports in detail.
Li Liang clearly pointed out that there are many false information in an article titled "Byte AI Team Changes the Array". The article mentions that technical vice president Yang Zhenyuan is about to retire and Feng Jiashi will leave his job and start a business, all of which are due to false sources of information. In addition, the report on Zhang Yiming's visit to Wandoujia founder Wang Junyu and Shanghai Mosu Space Startup Company is also inconsistent with the facts.
Li Liang said that he hopes that through this public explanation, this false information can be corrected and avoid misleading colleagues, customers and partners. He emphasized that ByteDance's investment and development plans in the field of artificial intelligence have always been based on the company's strategic planning and market demand, and there is no so-called "big change array".
Li Liang's clarification statement this time undoubtedly put an end to the recent rumor surrounding ByteDance's AI team. In the future, ByteDance's development trend in the field of artificial intelligence will continue to attract widespread attention from the industry.
