[The Last Co-Founder of Baichuan Resigns, Wang Xiaochuan Bets Solely on AI Healthcare] According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, an exclusive report from 'White Whale Lab' states that Baichuan Intelligent's co-founder and former Sogou COO Ru Liyun has resigned. He is now serving as the president of Huichen Co., shifting his focus to AI applications and embodied intelligence businesses. With his departure, the original co-founding team of Baichuan has fully exited. The report attributes this wave of resignations to strategic differences. Wang Xiaochuan has scaled back efforts on general models and enterprise businesses, concentrating his bets on AI healthcare. Meanwhile, some co-founders preferred to continue investing in general models and AI programming. Currently, Baichuan is still advancing its medical large model M4 and the family doctor agent 'Baixiaoyi.' Baichuan previously raised 5 billion yuan in funding, with a valuation of approximately 20 billion yuan, making it one of the most capital-favored domestic large-model startups. Now, with Wang Xiaochuan as the sole remaining founder, whether the healthcare-focused strategy will succeed has become the critical test for Baichuan moving forward. [Original Link]
