PHYSIX OBSERVATION

Baidu is turning its old Wenku and Netdisk business into an AI context entry point. The direction is pragmatic, but the context moat lies not in data volume, but in cross-system integration and users' willingness to authorize. The 3,000 trials are an early signal; whether they translate into stickiness depends on whether the enterprise edition can truly embed into organizational workflows, rather than just being a scaled-up version of a personal tool.
