One year after being written into the national government work report for the first time, "artificial intelligence" (AI) was the focus of the 2018 National Committee representatives. For representatives from Internet companies, AI is basically a topic of discussion. This year's two sessions, including the technology companies such as Li Yanhong and Ma Huateng, gave their in-depth interpretation of AI. Li Yanhong: AI China-US Competition China Advantage in Data Li Yanhong, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of Baidu, has submitted proposals related to artificial intelligence in the fourth year. From the “Chinese Brain†program in 2015, to the “Policy and Regulations on Speeding up the Development and Improvement of Driverless Vehicles†in 2016, and the three proposals in 2017 will focus on artificial intelligence. Four proposals from Li Yanhong this year. Two of them are related to artificial intelligence – I hope that the state will introduce policies to encourage artificial intelligence and open platforms and about unmanned driving. Behind this, artificial intelligence is seen as an opportunity to overtake the Chinese corner. On the road to catch up, how big is the gap between artificial intelligence and China and the United States? On the evening of March 2, Li Yanhong said in an interview with Baidu Science and Technology Park that China should be the second in the field of artificial intelligence. The first is indeed the United States, but if other countries compare with the level of artificial intelligence in China, China has obvious advantages. In terms of Sino-US comparison, Li Yanhong believes that American artificial intelligence has advantages in the research of talents and basic theories, and the vast majority of algorithm innovations occur in the United States. Moreover, American companies, especially Internet companies, pay more attention to artificial intelligence than Chinese Internet companies, so their investment is more determined and greater... These are the advantages of the United States in artificial intelligence. The main advantage of China is in the data. AI relies on data comparison. Li Yanhong believes that China with more than 700 million Internet users has a unique advantage in this respect. "The data generated by more than 700 million people is harmonious and unified. These data are used to train machine learning and train artificial intelligence models. Can train very valuable results." Ma Huateng: There are many opportunities in the vertical direction of AI. Ma Huateng, the NPC deputy and chairman and CEO of Tencent, brought eight written proposals during the two sessions this year. The topics covered include digital China, industrial Internet, financial security, medical health, youth innovation talent training, and construction of Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Dawan District. And ecological protection. At the Tencent 2018 “Two Sessions†media communication meeting held on the evening of March 3, Ma Huateng once again answered the hot topics such as blockchain, smart retail, mobile payment, and king glory. In response to the booming artificial intelligence industry in 2017, Ma Huateng said that since AI, especially AlphaGo, everyone realized that the power of deep learning is so powerful. In fact, deep learning is now fully achievable on many occasions. Tencent's current background technology, such as accurate matching of advertisements and personalized content recommendation, all adopt AI technology, but the user's perception is still not clear. In an interview with the media, Ma Huateng revealed that in the future manufacturing process, in certain scenarios, AI technology can be used to simulate a brain in the low-cost way to manage it from the mass. Find out the law in the data, through AI technology, just like there is always a brain that never tires to think and dispose of some information. Although this idea is still a long way off. However, Ma Huateng insists that if the scene is narrow enough and clear enough, and then through deep learning to understand its characteristics and data, it can be developed into an algorithm. "Starting with the vertical field first, the GM's GM may be far away. I think there are many opportunities for verticality." Ma Huateng explained. Yang Yuanqing: AI's "water droplets" have to penetrate all walks of life Yang Yuanqing, chairman and CEO of Lenovo Group, is focusing on artificial intelligence. Yang Yuanqing’s “Proposal for Vigorously Developing Industry Intelligence†recently proposed to use artificial intelligence to arm all walks of life and to take the wings of the real economy. The "water droplets" of artificial intelligence can only create a smart future if it penetrates into all walks of life, and promote artificial intelligence to empower all walks of life, both to "tree benchmarking" and "to take the platform." Yang Yuanqing's point of view is that artificial intelligence must be combined with the industry to form a truly effective industry intelligence, which can help the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries and promote the rapid integration of artificial intelligence and the real economy. Promoting industry intelligence requires multi-faceted efforts, including strengthening basic research, improving innovation capabilities, and breaking through core technologies; vigorously cultivating leading enterprises in industry intelligence, promoting application demonstration in key industries; establishing national industry intelligent application service platform to support SMEs Transformation. In addition, Yang Yuanqing believes that artificial intelligence technology, as the core driving force of a new round of industrial transformation, must be integrated with all walks of life to play a role. Developing industry intelligence is an important way to promote the integration of artificial intelligence and the real economy. The rapid advancement of industry intelligence requires both breakthroughs in artificial intelligence technology and the need to accelerate the application of industry; both the standard and the platform are required. Yang Yuanqing believes that cultivating industry-leading smart enterprises will help promote application demonstration in key industries, and building a national-level industry intelligent application platform will help support the intelligence of SMEs. Sun Yishu: Focus on AI Frontier Theory, Technology and Talent Sun Yishu, the representative of the National People's Congress and Chairman of Inspur Group, said in his proposal "Accelerating the Promotion of the Development of Artificial Intelligence Industry" that artificial intelligence applications have become hot spots, but artificial intelligence core technology, cutting-edge research and development, and talent training are not concerned. Artificial intelligence does not even enter the discipline of higher education. Focusing on the frontier theory, technology and talent cultivation of artificial intelligence, Sun Yishu believes that providing powerful computing power is a necessary premise for the rapid development of artificial intelligence. It is recommended to focus on planning equipment technology and products that meet the needs of new artificial intelligence technologies and new industries. Technology to achieve a significant increase in equipment levels. In addition, Sun Yishu believes that the country should actively arrange cutting-edge theoretical research and advanced technology research and development. Prospective layout Advanced computer learning, quantum intelligent computing and other cross-domain basic theoretical research, breaking through unsupervised learning and independent learning. In strengthening the cultivation of artificial intelligence related talents and promoting innovation and entrepreneurship, Sun Yishu hopes to cultivate and introduce top innovative talents and teams that can lead AI development. In particular, the construction of artificial intelligence disciplines, the improvement of the discipline layout in the field of artificial intelligence, the establishment of artificial intelligence related majors from undergraduate students, the promotion of the first-level disciplines in the field of artificial intelligence, and the encouragement of universities, research institutes and enterprises to cooperate in the development of artificial intelligence disciplines. , set up a joint laboratory.
