Every year, the World Artificial Intelligence Conference will exhibit a number of "treasures of the town hall", and this year is no exception. On July 5, the nine "treasures of the town hall" of the 2023 World Artificial Intelligence Conference were announced, and Ant Group's AI security detection platform "Ant Jian 2.0", Amazon Web Services "Amazon Bedrock", and Huawei's "Ascend AI Large Model Super Factory" were selected. When the reporter went to the World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center to explore the camp, he saw that the "treasures of the nine town pavilions" had all been unveiled.
The "100-model war" was staged on the spot
If the keyword in the field of artificial intelligence last year was "meta-universe", then 2023 is undoubtedly a year of "big models". So far, domestic technology companies, universities, and research institutions have released dozens of artificial intelligence large model products, and the "hundred model war" is about to break out.
At the 2023 World Artificial Intelligence Conference, a number of heavy achievements were also gathered to be launched or released centrally.

At the SenseTime booth, reporters experienced a chatbot called SenseChat, launched by the company in April, which can perform various tasks such as writing emails and children's stories based on prompts.
According to the booth staff, this chatbot is developed based on the "SenseNova" large model system, which is a 100-billion-level parametric language large model, which not only has leading semantic understanding, multi-round dialogue, knowledge mastery, and logical reasoning comprehensive capabilities. The newly upgraded version 2.0 has greatly improved the accuracy of knowledge information, logical judgment, context understanding, and creativity, and is one of the best performing Chinese and Chinese models.
"I want you to act as a film critic. You'll write a fascinating and creative review of the movie 'The Wandering Earth'. You can cover topics such as plot, theme and tone, acting and characters, soundtrack, special effects, editing, rhythm, and more. But the most important aspect is to emphasize how the movie makes you feel. What really resonates with you. Give me 3 different reviews. "In front of iFLYTEK's booth, the reporter experienced the terminal application of the Xinghuo model, and by setting the role + insight + instruction + personality + attempt, the iFLYTEK model can quickly give corresponding answers and understand complex instructions.
It is reported that compared with other domestic cognitive large models, iFLYTEK launched the Spark Application APP, Mini Program and H5 of the cognitive large model, which users can use through different entrances, and the entrance channel is easily obtained.

The in-depth application of artificial intelligence not only puts forward higher requirements for data, algorithms, and computing power, but also poses more challenges to security, privacy, and ethics. Ant Group began to explore and practice trusted AI in 2015, and its trusted AI technology has been widely used in intelligent risk control, intelligent manufacturing and other fields. This year's "Antjian AI Security Detection Platform 2.0", which was selected as the "Treasure of Zhenguan", is another technical practice of Ant Group in the field of trusted AI technology.
It is understood that "Ant Jian" is the industry's first industry-level AI security detection platform that supports all data types such as text and images. This year, Ant Group has comprehensively upgraded "Ant Jian 2.0" through joint scientific research with universities and institutions such as Tsinghua, and the new version adds AIGC security and AI explainable capabilities, which can serve large-scale and complex business scenarios in the fields of digital finance, education, culture, medical care, and e-commerce.
Humanoid robots unveiled
It is understood that more than 20 robots will be unveiled at this year's World Artificial Intelligence Conference, among which humanoid robots have become a highlight.
As one of this year's star exhibits, on the eve of the opening of the conference, the reporter saw Tesla's first humanoid robot "Optimus Prime" at the scene. It is observed that "Optimus Prime" is similar in height to an adult man, silver throughout, quite futuristic.

According to the on-site staff, "Optimus Prime" is about 173 centimeters tall, weighs about 56 kilograms, walks at a speed of about 8 kilometers per hour, can carry up to about 20 kilograms of items, and has a screen on the head so that users can obtain useful information. It uses the same visual perception as Tesla cars, using camera input data to perform calculations with neural networks.
In addition, Optimus Prime's design is based on the human body, and it is expected that the way it behaves is as close as possible to how people behave.
At this year's WAIC, Cloudminds also brought a number of futuristic embodied intelligent robots, all of which were connected to and upgraded RobotGPT, Hirui AGI and Hirui OS 5.1 released by Cloudminds, and the level of intelligence and human-computer interaction are quite outstanding.
Among them, Cloudminds self-developed humanoid robot Ginger, after accessing RobotGPT, can not only carry out a "question-and-answer" dialogue with the audience, but also play a variety of roles, showing the audience its infinite possibilities.
The day before the official opening of this WAIC, Meituan UAV released the fourth generation of new models, which took more than two years to develop and is a new multi-rotor model focusing on urban low-altitude logistics and distribution scenarios.
The booth staff introduced to reporters that compared with previous generations of models, the new model has upgraded its environmental adaptability, and can fly stably in "minus 20 degrees to 50 degrees" in moderate rain, moderate snow, 6-level wind, night and other environments, and can adapt to the natural environment requirements of more than 97% of domestic cities.
According to reports, the fourth-generation UAV released by Meituan this time has significantly improved safety, economy, environmental adaptability, and operation and maintenance friendliness. At the hardware level, the fourth-generation UAV is equipped with perception components such as binocular stereo vision cameras and 4D millimeter-wave radars, while improving the integration and waterproof performance of the whole machine, and the blade material.
Hu Meng, head of Meituan's drone hardware, said that compared with the previous generation, the economy and environmental adaptability of the new model have been greatly improved. "In addition to a 1-fold longer lifespan, the fourth-generation UAV can operate safely in multiple days of moderate rain, moderate snow and Category 6 winds at 'minus 20 degrees to 50 degrees'; 35% increase in delivery distance, up to 5 km; At the same time, in order to provide users with a better experience, the design of the folding three-bladed silent propeller also reduces the flight noise by 50%. ”
