4月8日，百度股价盘中大跌5.03%，报75.75美元。此次股价下跌可能与投资者对百度自动驾驶业务前景的担忧有关。
据悉，百度自2015年成立自动驾驶事业部以来，已累计投入超过1500亿元用于研发。然而，尽管技术实力领先，百度自动驾驶业务的商业化和盈利仍面临挑战。近期，百度智能驾驶事业群组（IDG）负责人王云鹏面临保持技术优势和实现盈利的双重压力。此外，市场还担心百度可能将更多资源转向大模型等人工智能领域，影响自动驾驶业务的发展。
为应对国内复杂局面，百度正积极拓展海外市场。公司计划在迪拜部署超过1000台无人驾驶汽车，并与阿联酋公司合作在阿布扎比打造大规模无人车队。同时，新加坡副总理王瑞杰近期访问百度并试乘无人车，被视为百度进军东南亚市场的信号。然而，自动驾驶技术的商业化前景仍存在不确定性，这可能是导致投资者信心受挫、股价下跌的重要原因。
