Multimodal large models are an important trend in the future
Large models, as a cutting-edge technology in the field of artificial intelligence, have made significant progress recently. Zhang Yihui, director of the Innovation and Development Department of the Artificial Intelligence Research Center of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, believes that the industrial large-scale model industry includes four types of entities: AI manufacturers focus on promoting full-chain capabilities, industrial technology service providers improve product capabilities through “patching”, and start-ups realize large-scale Model tool innovation, scientific research institutions/tech giants focus on cutting-edge exploration. In the future, industrial large model technology will evolve from general large models to multi-modal large models, application scenarios will transform from peripheral links to multi-link comprehensive empowerment, and technology products will evolve from simple superposition to system reconstruction, pushing the industry to a new stage of general intelligence. .

The goal is to apply Hongmengization to thousands of industries
The unified architecture of the operating system lays the foundation for full-scenario service perception. The AIoT era also ushered in the upgrading of operating systems. Li Tuo, Director of Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Terminal Cloud Hongmeng Ecological Cooperation, revealed at the meeting that the Hongmeng ecosystem has passed the first stage. The ecological base and large-scale games, tools and other applications have been successfully completed, and the number of native Hongmeng head applications has exceeded 200+. At present, Hongmeng Ecosystem has entered the second stage of the full launch of native applications. It plans to realize 5,000+ native applications of Hongmeng head through soft, hard, core and cloud collaboration. It hopes to join hands with more developers to accelerate the application of Hongmeng in thousands of industries.

AIoT technology makes agriculture no longer dependent on the weather
Many traditional industries in China are waiting for innovation, and the same is true for agriculture, which has always relied on weather. Chen Qiuhuang, CEO of Hangzhou Suli Technology Co., Ltd., shared the topic “Application Practice of AIoT Technology in Future Farms”. In his view, agricultural AIoT will usher in improvements in efficiency, cost and other aspects, but the development of agricultural science and technology also faces a series of problems, such as infrastructure costs are still high, products are not yet fully mature, there is a lack of standards and specifications, the application environment is relatively limited, and commercial The pattern is not completely broken through, etc. From the perspective of solving problems, the essence is still that the agricultural Internet of Things returns to people-friendly prices, so that farmers can want to use it and know how to use it, so that agriculture can truly increase production and efficiency.
