Big models aren't the only ones ChatGPT this way! This time, HUAWEI CLOUD has obviously chosen the right path!
On July 7, at the 2023 Huawei Developer Conference, HUAWEI CLOUD officially released Pangu Model 3.0, a large model for the industry. Zhang Pingan said: "The Pangu model should allow every industry, every enterprise, and everyone to have their own expert assistants to make the work more efficient and easier. We have always adhered to the strategy of AI for Industries, and we are constantly moving forward on the road of deep cultivation of the industry, and I firmly believe that big models will reshape thousands of industries, and every developer will be a hero who changes the world. ”
First of all, Pangu large-scale model full-stack technology innovation wants to create another pole of world AI. It is estimated that everyone has seen the news that the Biden administration is considering new chip sanctions against China recently, and the release of HUAWEI CLOUD Pangu Model 3.0 is of great strategic significance. This move aims to move away from dependence on U.S. technology and create greater autonomy and competitive advantage for China's development in the field of artificial intelligence.
Second, in terms of performance, Huawei has built an AI computing cloud platform based on Kunpeng and Ascend, as well as a heterogeneous computing engine CANN, an all-scenario AI framework MindSpore, and an AI development production line ModelArts, providing key capabilities such as distributed parallel acceleration, operator and compilation optimization, and cluster-level communication optimization for large model development and operation.
Taking the Pangea Meteorological Model as an example, compared with traditional numerical prediction methods, its speed is increased by a full 10,000 times, and it can provide second-level global weather forecasting. The breakthrough of this technology has allowed China's meteorological industry to achieve curve overtaking, which has been highly appreciated by the European Medium-Range Forecasting Center and the Central Meteorological Observatory.
Similar success stories include the Pangu Drug Molecular Model, and the super antibacterial drug developed by HUAWEI CLOUD AI-assisted drug design service has been patented internationally, which is expected to become the world's first new target and new class of antibiotics in the past 40 years, and drug X is expected to become the world's first new target and new class of antibiotics in the past 40 years, changing the situation that patients have no drug available in the face of "super drug-resistant bacteria" infection.
In addition, the application of Pangu model also involves various industries such as finance, government affairs, manufacturing, mining, and railways. HUAWEI CLOUD AI has been applied in more than 1,000 projects in multiple industries.
Of course, behind these successes, Huawei has continued to invest in technology research and development and talent training over the years. In terms of R&D investment, Huawei has always adhered to the R&D spirit of "climbing the north slope". Ten years of R&D investment of nearly one trillion yuan, the proportion of investment increased from 13% to 25%, ranking first in China and top four in the world all year round.
In terms of talent strategic layout, Pangu model team is a young team full of passion and creativity. The average age of the team members is less than 30 years old, and more than 50% of the members have doctoral degrees, which also provides strong talent support for the future development of Pangu Grand Model.
However, the breakthrough of China's science and technology has never relied on a certain organization or enterprise. If China wants to truly become the other pole of the world's AI in the era of artificial intelligence, it also needs more Chinese companies and technology Internet companies to pay attention to talent training, only in this way can China compete with the United States in the revolutionary science and technology competition.
Nowadays, the research and development of large models has become the consensus of Chinese science and technology manufacturers, but it is a difficult task to truly stand out and achieve landing. As entrepreneur Zhu Xiaohu pointed out in his debate with Fu Sheng, large models must have tangible landing scenes to show their true value.
From this point of view, HUAWEI CLOUD is undoubtedly a leader in terms of technology and landing capabilities, which also sets a new example for Chinese technology enterprises. Behind the "Thousand Model War", there is not only the road of ChatGPT, but also the differentiation to win. If Chinese companies want to cope with the technological containment of the United States, they must not follow the old path, but need to diverge more innovative thinking and open up new paths. Only in this way can Chinese science and technology break down barriers and occupy a more important position on the global stage!
