   WeChat’s Xiaowei expands into Mini Program service workflows

   WeChat’s Xiaowei AI assistant has expanded across chat, search, Official Accounts, Channels, and PC, with WeChat citing 16 entry points and third-party testers counting 28. The assistant is being integrated into Mini Program discovery and fulfillment, using WeLM and, for some complex requests, DeepSeek, while developers can expose services through atomic interfaces, components, and SKILL instructions. TMTPost reports that shorter, clearly bounded tasks are performing better than compound workflows, but developer adoption, ranking, attribution, and task completion remain unresolved.

   China's Golden Week OTA split: Doubao sells answers, Fliggy and Tongcheng sell inventory

   A TMTPost retrospective on China's National Day Golden Week says AI entry points became a key battleground for online travel platforms. Doubao launched a dedicated travel hub covering maps, transport, hotels and dining before the holiday, and Douyin Life Services said Doubao hotel bookings rose over 56% month-on-month; Fliggy's Bangbang assistant saw interactions up 158% and guided flight and hotel bookings up 110%, while Tongcheng Travel's DeepTrip agent and Meituan's “Xiaotuan” assistant also reported holiday gains. The piece argues that legacy OTAs stress interaction and traffic while Doubao stresses transaction conversion, and that AI itineraries still struggle to adjust for weather, crowds, fares and traffic, so turning plans into real fulfillment rather than chat quality will decide the winner.
