It reportedly enhances the search capabilities of neural networks by 88% through simulations without interacting with real systems like Google.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The method avoids the high costs often associated with routing queries through commercial tools. Models already trained on extensive knowledge bases generate &#8220;quality content&#8221; in response to queries.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>ZeroSearch is claimed to transform a benchmark model into a search engine capable of training other AI systems to respond to queries. The technology reduces reliance on costly external search infrastructure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For instance, sending 64,000 queries to Google via <span data-descr=\"application programming interface\" class=\"old_tooltip\">API<\/span> cost $586.7. Generating responses for training using an AI model with 14 billion parameters cost $70.8.<\/p>\n<p>The innovation could expand search capabilities, researchers noted.<\/p>\n<p>In April, the Chinese tech giant <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/alibaba-unveils-hybrid-ai-models-qwen3\">released<\/a> a new family of AI models, Qwen3, which &#8220;are capable of matching or even surpassing in some cases&#8221; the best solutions from Google and OpenAI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chinese technology giant Alibaba has announced a breakthrough in reducing the cost of training AI models focused on search.
