The 2024 Inclusion Bund Conference will officially open on September 5. On September 4, reporters saw at the conference site that this year’s conference has been upgraded again around the three key words of technology, humanities, and sustainability. A 10,000-square-meter science and technology exhibition and a 3,000-square-meter green life festival have been specially set up to bring a variety of events to the audience. A lively and immersive technology experience.
The science and technology exhibition is divided into cutting-edge technology, industrial landscape and other special sections. It brings together more than 100 global leading technology companies and academic institutions to showcase cutting-edge research results, such as the debut of the immersive brain-inspired digital twin system and nanowire artificial retina. Restoration vision technology, and China’s first integrated large model security solution “Yitianjian 2.0”, etc.
In the "Artificial Intelligence Laboratory", 10 large model manufacturers and university research institutions, including Fudan University, Baichuan Intelligence, Alibaba Cloud, and Ant Group, demonstrated the latest large model technology.
Ant Group's Bailing multi-modal large model, with its native multi-modal capabilities, allows machines to "see" more clearly, "hear" more realistically, "speak" more fluently, and "draw" more vividly. It can directly understand and train multi-modal data such as audio, video, images, text, etc., taking the machine's perception capabilities to a higher level. Vidu, a purely self-developed video model jointly released by Shengshu Technology and Tsinghua University, can instantly ignite the spark of creativity with its powerful function of generating high-definition videos with one click. Fudan University's large intelligent microscopy imaging model UniFMIR breaks through the limits of existing fluorescence microscopy imaging and greatly improves the quality of observation and analysis in fields such as life sciences and medical research.
When AI enters life, how will human life change? In the exhibition area, visitors can interact with more than 20 AI assistants and experience a day of living with AI.
In the "Future Assistant" exhibition area, visitors can click on Alipay's AI life butler "Zhi Xiaobao" and let it help you book tickets, order food, quickly call out bus codes, search for nearby good places to eat, drink and have fun, etc. through dialogue, and experience " The ultimate service that can get things done with just a word; it can also be made based on At different times and places, AI will intelligently push exclusive and considerate services - interpret the news for you every morning, remind you about the weather, and help you take a taxi with one click; in the afternoon, let AI help you intelligently order a cup of coffee and recommend delicious hot pot after get off work; in the evening, it will help you Plan a night tour route suitable for CityWalk, etc. Audiences can also use Xiaobing's "Digital Clone" to clone themselves in 3 minutes and let the digital person assist them in completing their work; they can also use the digital code assistant CodeFuse to realize AI programming, which greatly improves work efficiency.
Yushu robot and robot dog, "Archie" desktop robot, Tesla second-generation humanoid robot, and Xpeng Huitian flying car give the exhibition area a more cyberpunk style. Unitree, launched by Yushu in 2023, is the world's first full-size electric-driven humanoid robot with the ability to perform backflips on the spot. It is about 180 centimeters tall, weighs about 47 kilograms, and can move at a speed of 3.3 meters per second. It uses 360° panoramic depth sensing technology to accurately perceive the depth information of the surrounding environment. Yushu Go2 quadruped robot adopts advanced motion control and can easily complete a variety of basic movements such as heart comparison, handshake, and dancing. Yushu also continues to add intelligent and interesting AI interactive functions to it. Through large-scale AI simulation training, Go2 has mastered advanced steps such as walking upside down, somersaulting, and climbing stairs; with the support of a large language model, the robot dog can also Become an encyclopedia and be able to chat fluently in Chinese and English.
The development of AI is also accompanied by challenges such as internal model illusions, security vulnerabilities, abuse of deeply generated content, and energy problems.
In the "Future Security Laboratory", viewers can experience the "AI authenticity" function of Ant's "Yitianjian 2.0", which can verify the authenticity of pictures or video clips through the system to provide protection for information security. In the "Sustainability Laboratory", Alibaba Cloud and Ant Group demonstrated how to reduce carbon emissions and contribute to sustainable development through green intelligent computing technology stacks and self-developed green computing systems.
At the technology exhibition site, the audience can feel how technology can become a warm partner of mankind. BrainCo has brought revolutionary breakthroughs to the field of rehabilitation assistive devices. Take the smart bionic hand as an example. It integrates brain-computer interface technology and artificial intelligence algorithms. By collecting and processing myoelectric nerve electrical signals generated by human body movement, it realizes the movement control of bionic limbs. It not only acts according to the instructions of the brain, but also allows Users can complete various actions as they wish.
In the AI agent interactive exhibition area, creative agents from many fields such as medical care, finance, education, public welfare, tourism, law, sports, animation, etc. appeared one after another. These intelligent agents rely on the rapid iteration of various large models. With simple instructions, they can easily complete tasks such as answering legal questions, customizing travel routes, and teaching the elderly to use mobile phones.
