iFLYTEK: Let the sustainable growth of the industry be rooted in the safe foundation of independent innovation

Recently, at the iFLYTEK 2022 Cloud Annual Conference with the theme of "The Initial Heart is Like a Rock, Youth Blooms", Liu Qingfeng, Chairman of iFLYTEK, pointed out in his speech,

iFLYTEK continues to strengthen the core technology innovation at the source, so that the sustainable growth of the industry is rooted in the safe foundation of independent innovation.

With the release of the top-level plan in the field of digital economy, the digitization process in the mainland has accelerated. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in the article "Continuously Strengthening and Optimizing the Digital Economy of the Mainland" that it is necessary to strengthen the key core technology research and "firmly grasp the autonomy of developing the digital economy in its own hands".

In the context of Sino-US competition, voice technology and interactive technology have become the necessary technologies for the export of all future intelligent terminals, and they are also the most easily stuck neck technology. Based on years of deep cultivation in the field of technology, iFLYTEK has built an AI R&D base platform to connect key technologies such as data return, human-computer collaboration, and capability interaction, and officially launched 5 categories of capabilities in 60 languages last year, which increased research efficiency by 50%, and the key application results exceeded expectations.

Based on the AI R&D base platform, iFLYTEK has achieved rapid breakthroughs in multilingual technology. At the 2021 OpenASR International Low-Resource Multilingual Speech Recognition Challenge, iFLYTEK participated in all 15 language restricted tracks and 7 language unrestricted tracks, all of which won the first place. This is also the second breakthrough in the multilingual field after winning the XTREME championship of the multilingual comprehension evaluation, laying a solid foundation for China's multilingual speech language technology to catch up with the international advanced level and "Made in China" to open up overseas markets. Whether it is mobile phone users, state-owned enterprises such as Chery and GAC, or overseas automobile manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Ferrari, it is obvious that China's multilingual recognition technology has beaten its opponents in blind testing.

"Since our inception in '99, we aspired to be the world's best multilingual technology supplier. The fact that the sustainable growth of the industry is rooted in the safe foundation of independent innovation can be said to have been the efforts of several generations of iFLYTEK. Last year, we took it seriously and made it a reality. Liu Qingfeng said.

Systematic innovation is the gene that iFLYTEK is born with and originated in the blood. As a member of the "national team" of artificial intelligence, iFLYTEK adheres to the industrial ambition of "standing on top of the sky", continuously makes breakthroughs in the field of core technologies at the source of artificial intelligence, promotes China's intelligent voice and artificial intelligence to walk in the forefront of the world, and occupies the right to speak in international competition.
