This year, as many manufacturers released new AI PC (artificial intelligence computer) products, AI PC has become a hot spot in the industry. On November 17, during an exclusive media interview at the 2024 Greater Bay Area Science Forum, Guo Song, an academician of the Canadian Academy of Engineering, an academician of the European Academy of Sciences, and a chair professor of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, said that AI PC is not just a large model deployed on the computer. AI PC needs to have multiple functions, not only the function of large language model, but also the function of using various tools, reasoning, reflection and optimization. Currently, the AI capabilities of PCs are still in their infancy. To truly realize the industrialization of AI PC, we must take a step-by-step approach. First, put AI into the computer to ensure that large models can respond quickly in the computer, and then optimize and improve it. "There is still a long way to go in the future, but I believe it will not take too long." Guo Song said.
Under the hot wave of AI technology, how to discover application scenarios has become the focus of attention from all walks of life. Guo Song said that discoveries in academia from "0" to "1" may not necessarily produce economic benefits. In terms of subsequent applications, the academic community needs to cooperate more with enterprises, universities, hospitals, etc., so that they can master first-hand information. Only by allowing AI scientists to have a real understanding of various industries such as medicine can we create unique large-scale vertical models. In October this year, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology announced that it had successfully developed four major AI medical models. These large AI medical models are designed to assist general practitioners and specialists in diagnosis and treatment, and can provide diagnosis and prognosis assessment for up to 30 types of cancers and diseases. In addition, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology also collaborated with the Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (Shanghai AI Laboratory), the National Meteorological Center and other institutions to release the global high-resolution AI weather forecast model "Fengwu GHR", which for the first time achieved 10-kilometer mid-term weather forecasting with the help of AI. level modeling and forecasting. "We integrate original AI technology and knowledge from various industries so that we can produce truly effective large models." Guo Song said. "The essence of science is seeking truth." Guo Song also expressed his views on science. AI has brought people closer to science. Everyone can use computers now and AI in the future. With the continuous development of tools, everyone can become Be part of scientific exploration.
