According to SankeiBiz website, mainland network giant Tencent decided to step into the field of automatic driving technology, and has launched internal testing; if the news is true, the plant will be the layout of the largest automatic landing in the land-based enterprises, the global autopilot system competition further It is noteworthy that Tencent is not a car manufacturer, but acquired a 5% stake in Tesla in March 2017 to become the fourth largest shareholder of Tesla. Although neither party disclosed any relevant information about the cooperation model or plan, In the future, the relationship between Tesla and automatic driving technology is worth observing.In fact, Tencent into the field of automatic driving is not without trace, the Tesla funded, but also invested in Beijing NavInfo, drip travel , Ma Huateng, chief executive of Tencent, once said he was interested in automatic AI technology, but most people think that Tencent will not invest in automatic driving technology, after all, it has already made a lot of profits in the games and social media markets. Baidu, which makes big investments in artificial intelligence and autonomous driving technology, will therefore become an important competitor to Tencent, However, LUCC believes that autonomous driving technology is an important technology that stimulates technological innovation and enhances global competitiveness. It does not make sense for Tencent to invest in map positioning and image recognition technology to move into autonomous driving. Technology developer Mobileye teamed up, although Tesla announced in 6 months developed its own mobile driving technology with the same level of Mobileye, but the follow-up of the development is still unknown.Therefore, Tencent and Tesla's many moves just a mere coincidence, or the beginning of the cooperation between the two sides , It is worth continuing attention.
