Chinese tech giants Ant, Tencent, Alibaba, and Baidu are launching enterprise AI agent platforms at Shanghai's WAIC summit, competing to embed autonomous workflows into business operations rather than point optimisations. Ant's Agentar 2.0 offers 200 pre-built agent templates; Tencent is pushing WorkBuddy across iOS, Android, and HarmonyOS; Alibaba launched Meoo Team for resource management; Baidu's DuMate saw 20x query growth since March.
