Huawei's chip and hardware product and technology planning leader, Huawei Fellow Ai Wei said: 'We are actually doing mobile phones, or chip phones, is to provide a platform, a capacity, how to make the ultimate consumer feel completely different The experience, which requires application innovation.
In this open class, Zhang Peng, founder and president of Geek Park, as host, also invited Lin Tzu-chuen, a lifelong professor at Peking University, to focus on the impact and changes that AI handsets will have on the product logic and business landscape of the handset industry, as well as the future of AI handsets Development trend conducted in-depth discussion.
AI mobile phone new definition: human brain co-processor
From the founding of '2012 Labs' by Huawei in 2012, Glory has started its exploration in the field of artificial intelligence, and the glory of the world's first AI mobile phone, Magic, was announced at the end of 2016. Since then, a new era of AI mobile phones has been opened up, followed by face recognition and voice assistant AI applications are also gradually popular.
In the open class, Zhao Ming, President of Glory, explained why glory persists in AI and guesses the future of AI handsets, which Glory understands: 'When we defined a smart phone, everyone would compare it to a human organ extension, For example, the sense of touch, visual, auditory extension, but in fact the glory of AI, it will think of it as a human brain coprocessor. I read a lot of articles and discussions on the AI, I think the future of AI in life In the application of a serious underestimate the future of the real AI mobile phone in the future, should be able to shorten our gap with experts in various fields, or with the gap between professionals. 'To honor the latest release of the glory AI V10 phone, for example, It's AI camera capabilities can automatically identify 13 kinds of scenes, the system will match the parameters of professional photographers when shooting this scenario, which is the embodiment of AI recognition and computing power.This AI ability has been fully used in photography, charging, call Noise reduction, games and intelligent assistant applications, to provide users with a personal assistant like caring service.
AI handsets will break barriers between applications and create more business opportunities
Today's mobile Internet applications have been deep into all details of life, followed by a variety of applications installed in the mobile phone system APP, the user the most commonly used APP number is limited, but mutual interaction and data sharing But it is not ideal.Zhang Peng said: 'a variety of applications, data to get through, the logic also get through to form a complete chain of experience.We always say that a variety of scenarios, the future of these scenes will be the border Become obscure, resulting in some new business opportunities. '
Zhao Ming said: 'In fact, this will allow each industry to focus more on their own competition in the quality of service, the future of these scenarios and habits of analysis, judgment and recommendation, will give you the most accurate artificial intelligence advice, we will focus on The business nature of this industry, you must improve service levels, improve product competitiveness.
Ai Wei believes that AI's business model can be divided into two parts: the first is the incremental innovation, this is the future opportunity; the second is the current stock, just as the crop is being harvested. 'There is currently no chip manufacturers that they AI does not support, but can really run AI, and can provide a certain amount of stock, the current Huawei / glory platform is relatively good if you choose to do based on AI innovation, it is necessary to figure out which mobile phone platform It can grow rapidly. This is what it is called to see who starts fast. This is not a concept.
AI in the APP application, has brought a revolutionary change, such as glory V10 negative screen, it will take the initiative to provide you with a common life APP, a key to direct the mobile phone hardware side of the AI will bring the future Deeper business transformation, countless giant business model will also emerge.
Glory phone AI ability to seize the initiative for more than six months
Ai Wei believes: 'glory to innovative technologies as a support point, coupled with a new generation of artificial intelligence chip Kirin 970 strong momentum in the development of AI handsets at least more than six months ahead of the industry.' Last year's glory Magic phone is the world's first to have AI-capable mobile phone, the chip is unicorn 950. Glory Magic mobile phone has a strong perception: pick up the phone, eyes see it for a moment, it will automatically light screen; put down the phone moment, automatically turn off the screen; Face Code function , Can take the initiative to quickly face recognition, when there is a new message, only the owner can see the details of the message in the lock screen state, for others hide the message, glory Magic to achieve a system of AI.
The glory of the V10, is the chip-level AI, which carries a new generation of artificial intelligence chips unicorn 970, built a new independent NPU neuron network unit, and uses the industry's most advanced technology, built-in 4 for heavy-duty tasks Cortex A73 core, four Cortex A53 cores, GPU is the new generation of 12-core Mali-G72 MP12, all parameters have reached the level of flagship product.In communications, the unicorn 970 supports the world's highest communication standard LTE Cat .18 / Cat.13, to achieve the industry's highest peak download rate of 1.2Gbps. Huawei Fellow Ai Wei said that in addition to upgrading the hardware parameters, the unicorn 970 Huawei is the first time at the mobile device level neural network model hardware Computing acceleration into the chip integration, which is the industry's first mobile phone chip appeared in the calculation unit for artificial intelligence dedicated processing unit, at least six months ahead of the industry.
According to Lin, the first generation of smartphones is different from traditional feature phones in that the major success is actually in industrial design and user interaction. AI has been through an iterative process for many years and can produce the next generation of revolutionary products through AI, which Is the most critical, which is a chance for a new generation of handset makers.
Open win-win situation, build a global AI ecosystem
Speaking on the issue of opening up the core competence of AI, Zhao Ming said AI's inclusiveness and openness are very large, any application can be based on AI mobile phone hardware development AI applications.At present, Huawei's AI platform can achieve three AI capabilities open: The bottom of the chip capabilities, the middle of the terminal capacity and the top cloud service platform capabilities.
Zhao Ming said: 'All Internet companies, all mobile phone brands, there must be an open mind, we must contribute to their ability, if all are zoned, then I can not touch you, I Not open to you, the future development of artificial intelligence will be greatly hindered.
With the opening of the AI platform, AI handsets will drive the development of the global industrial chain and attract many developers to join in. Glory, as a global brand, has successfully entered 74 overseas markets and the net recommended value has been among the world's handsets Brand second.Volt V10 mobile phone previously released in London when the media caused a strong overseas response shows the wave of AI mobile phone has swept the world from China.Alongitudinal extension of the AI technology at the same time, open the horizontal axis of the global market to extend the final Will have criss-cross three-dimensional AI capabilities.
In response to the construction of the entire AI eco-industrial chain, Zhao Ming said: "I hope more partners and Internet companies realize that AI is a great opportunity for all industries and for the whole industry chain. We should join this cooperation Alliance. "As the first mobile phone brand to eat 'AI' crabs, Glory is willing to rush ahead to break through the entire industry, speeding up the process of AI in the mobile phone and Internet industries, driving the development of the entire eco-chain to the next The revolution in user experience breaks the stalemate of homogeneity and vicious competition.
As the event is coming to an end, Zhao Ming announces the forthcoming anniversary of glory. Then Glory will announce more strategies and plans for future development. Let us wait and see.
