Artificial intelligence technology is reshaping industrial productivity
At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is reshaping the global economic structure and reconstructing the global scientific and technological map, and artificial intelligence is the strategic technology and important driving force leading this round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial change.
Shi Yong, counselor and academician of the State Council, said at the 2021 artificial intelligence annual meeting that the artificial intelligence industry has developed rapidly, and the registration volume of artificial intelligence-related enterprises in China has exploded from 2020, and at present, there are 439,000 artificial intelligence-related enterprises in China. He stressed that China's artificial intelligence industry has great potential, the development of application scenarios is the core, data accumulation, basic research and enterprise-oriented applications are the three directions that artificial intelligence needs to develop in the future.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence technology is closely related to the construction of computing power infrastructure. In recent years, all walks of life in China have widely applied artificial intelligence to drive the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, resulting in a large number of computing power demand, and artificial intelligence computing centers have become a new type of infrastructure for key construction in various places.
"Computing power, as productivity, is changing the innovation model in basic science and artificial intelligence, and promoting changes in the way economic development is developed." Zheng Weimin, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, pointed out that high-performance graph computing is the core technology of artificial intelligence after big data, and it is the strategic commanding heights of the current global artificial intelligence competition, so we must accelerate the overcoming of technology, break through industrial bottlenecks, establish a linkage mechanism of production, learning and research, and prevent the key technical field of high-performance graph computing from being "stuck neck".

The innovation and development of technology is inseparable from the research and promotion of the world's top technical talents. Zhou Zhihua, vice president of the Chinese Engineering Intelligence Society and academician of the European Academy of Sciences, as an authoritative expert in the field of artificial intelligence, proposed that machine learning, especially deep learning technology, exert great power with the support of big data and the help of computing power. The model + protocol model, with its reusable, evolvable, and understandable capabilities, will help break through multiple challenges such as sample acquisition, data privacy, and security.

Technology accelerates the application of artificial intelligence
Data and scenarios are the most critical factors in the landing of artificial intelligence, in addition to data problems, many guests on the scene made important sharing on artificial intelligence application scenarios. Rong Chunming, an academician of the Norwegian Academy of Engineering, mentioned that artificial intelligence is affecting the entire society and is gradually penetrating into all aspects of our work and life. Since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, artificial intelligence has been at the forefront of the fight against the epidemic with its unique advantages. Sensorless passage, epidemic inquiry robots, AI temperature measurement, epidemic prevention command platforms, etc. have all played a huge role in life and production.

In the process of urban intelligent construction, artificial intelligence has also played an important role. At the meeting, Zheng Yu, vice president of Jingdong Group, IEEE Fellow, and distinguished scientist of the American Computer Society, elaborated on the "five-network integration" smart city construction concept of "five network integration" of urban state perception, urban data sharing, urban governance and one network, government office collaboration and government service network integration.

Zheng Yu said that the most important thing in the "five-network integration" is the one-network perception of urban status and the sharing of urban data. Among them, the urban state network perception is like the "five senses" of the city state, and the urban state network perception can obtain information in the process of urban operation through fixed perception, mobile perception, active perception and passive perception, and can obtain information on the flow of people, traffic flow, environment, public safety, energy consumption and economic fields in the process of urban operation, and classify and collect all kinds of information, organize and define the standards and standardize the use.
At the same time, through the five advantages of global perception, efficient management, intelligent engine, digital twin, and interconnection shared by the city data network, JD.com has built a digital cornerstone and digital intelligence base for smart cities, so that the perceived urban information can fully release its value. The Xiong'an Block Data Platform is a typical case of JD.com helping the intelligent construction of Xiong'an New Area through mechanism innovation, technological innovation and business model innovation.
Contribute China's strength to the development of artificial intelligence in the world
The data shows that in 2020, the scale of the Chinese intelligent industry reached 160.69 billion yuan, an increase of 24.43% year-on-year, and it is expected that by the end of 2021, the scale of the Chinese intelligent industry will reach 203.56 billion yuan, with a growth rate of 26.68%. At present, the scale of application of artificial intelligence in China is constantly expanding, especially in the fields of e-commerce, life services, medical and health care, etc. has been at the forefront of the world.
Innovation leads development, and more and more Chinese technology companies are shouldering the heavy responsibility of promoting technology popularization and digital economy development. Ni Guangnan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, shared the in-depth "binding" of open source, digital economy and artificial intelligence from the perspective of enterprise open source. He said: "Some IT companies in China that embrace open source have gradually entered the forefront of open source in the world, and their role in the open source community has gone through the development stage from user-participant-contributor, playing an increasingly important role in the global open source ecosystem, and China is realizing the development of 'open source power' to 'open source power'." ”

Zheng Yu said that as the lead unit, Jingdong Smart City is undertaking the major special project of the national key research and development plan "Internet of Things and Smart City" and organizing the formulation of international standards. In the future, JD.com will continue to deepen the construction of smart cities and provide vigorous impetus for the development of smart cities in China and even the world.
The artificial intelligence industry as a representative emerging information technology is developing at a high speed, artificial intelligence application technology is accelerating the popularization, and artificial intelligence is ushering in rare development opportunities. Industry experts and industry leaders gathered in Hengyang to talk about the new trend of artificial intelligence development, which will contribute indispensable to the integration of Artificial Intelligence technology and application in China. 【Promotion】
