Super computing, Beidou and quantum satellite breakthrough
Beijing News: In 2017, China has made breakthroughs in the independent innovation of network information technology.
Ni Guangnan: mainly in two aspects, on the one hand, high-speed rail, WeChat, Alipay and sharing bicycles, the four new technology business cards, so that people enjoy the convenience of mobile Internet.On the other hand, in the world's leading sophisticated technology, We made a big breakthrough in three technologies last year.
The first is the supercomputer 'the power of the Sunway Taihu Lake', using our own hardware and software, is a fully localized supercomputer, followed by the Beidou satellite navigation. We will combine the Internet technology and aerospace, Compass now covers Asia Pacific There is no problem, and thirdly, the development of quantum computing communications technology driven by quantum satellites shows our determination in technological innovation.
The iteration of mobile communications clearly reflects our technological progress. With the advent of the 5G era, China is likely to move from 'running to leading'.
The controllability of network security is easily overlooked
Beijing News: You recently said that China's Internet security status and cyberspace struggle initiative. At present, China's Internet security, the most urgent problems to be solved?
Ni Guangnan: cyberspace security is a category of non-traditional security, network security is confrontational, such as hacking, it is difficult to predict and calculate.We often say that the safety and controllability of network security are different dimensions of the problem.
Controllability is easy to overlook, but it is getting more and more attention today, such as Iran's nuclear facilities, Ukraine's power outage, etc. Our insistence on autonomy and control is not opposed to opening up. If the hardware and software used in some important infrastructures fail to achieve autonomous control Requirements, may have a negative effect.
Now some chips can not be made domestically. Can not be domestically produced not to meet the requirements of self-control, others may cut off the supply chain, we are paralyzed.Network letter areas to emphasize independent innovation, the core technology can not be controlled by others.
AI will not exceed human in the short term
Beijing News: Since Alpha Dogs beat human Go master, triggering public anxiety about artificial intelligence, how do you view AI in the current development, and the future impact on human life?
Ni Guangnan: After the Alpha dog so that we recognize that the three major conditions to determine the AI has matured - computer processing and affordability fast enough, big data more mature applications, AI depth learning algorithm development, the three advantages of Alpha dog defeat Human
It will take some time for the AI to quickly phase out human beings, and now we do not have to be too alarmed and will not surpass humans in the short term, but the trend is unstoppable.
Artificial intelligence will be an important starting point for the next phase of information development, and some of the current challenges will take time to solve, which is a good opportunity for China.
At present, China is in an emerging field where conditions conducive to the rapid development of new technologies exist and China has a better foundation and market to support AI development.
The same question and answer
Do you think the last year, the biggest change in the Internet industry, or what is your most impressive experience?
Ni Guangnan: 'The New Big Four Inventions' has become a part of our life. My greatest experience is that although we are still in the third tier of overall manufacturing industry, we already have innovative self-confidence, from running to running to leading, In some areas can overtake overtaking.
In what aspects of China's Internet industry is most likely to lead the world?
Ni Guangnan: In the future, such as the Internet of Things and the Industrial Internet, the in-depth integration will bring about new developments in the traditional industries, and the convergence of the Internet, big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence, especially in the field of Netcom, will produce many new applications and fields.
What have you achieved in the past year and what are your expectations for the coming year?
Ni Guangnan: China wants to become a network power, but also make up classes.Hardware software infrastructure can not reach autonomy control, or subject to the people.Hope in the new year, the important core technology can be improved through the independent controllable information technology system.
