Abstract generation in progress

Over the past month, after Qianwen generated 200 million yuan in orders with its “One-Click Ordering” feature, Alibaba still hopes to extend this approach beyond mobile screens and into more hardware forms. According to an internal Alibaba source, Alibaba’s personal AI assistant “Qianwen” will enter the AI hardware sector. The hardware forms planned for 2026 include AI glasses, AI earphones, and AI rings, which will be available to the global market. Among these, the Qianwen AI glasses will be unveiled at the upcoming 2026 Mobile World Congress (MWC) and will open for pre-order on March 2. To further enhance the user experience of these terminal devices, “Smart Emergence” reports that functions like ordering food and hailing taxis on the Qianwen app will be seamlessly migrated to many future terminal devices.
