Digital life AI empowers people's livelihood

Looking back at the development of artificial intelligence in the past 70 years along the historical rut, the three famous schools have a great influence. First, behaviorism school, they want machines to act like people, so they invented robot behavior intelligence, from perception to behavior; The second is symbolism school, which hopes to turn the calculation problem into reasoning problem and let the machine have the intelligence to think like a human being; The third is the connectionist school. They hope that the machine brain can connect everything like the human brain, so there is machine learning and deep learning.

Although each faction has its own emphasis, today, many people's first impression of artificial intelligence is still hardware devices that imitate human form. They are endowed with certain wisdom by computer technology, and they can handle the work in designated fields, and advanced people can make their own judgments and reasoning.

Smart business circle robots punch in to work.

People who like shopping have found that about two or three years ago, some lovely robots began to appear in large shopping malls in first-tier cities. They are waiting at the main road or intersection of the shopping mall. Guests can ask them questions if they want to know which store it is. If the program setting allows, the robot can directly guide the guests to the designated store. At the same time, guests can also ask the robot for coupons from related stores.

These reception service robots first appeared in Beijing Chaoyang Joy City, and were developed and put into production by Orion Star. As of April, 20021year, official data of Orion Star show that its reception service robots have landed nearly 20,000 sets in more than 20 industry scenes, serving more than 2,800 customers, with an average daily voice interaction frequency of over 65.438+million times and a total service duration of over 220 million.

In addition, the main robot of Orion Star Smart Coffee has also walked out of the laboratory and took the lead in settling in Beijing Heshenghui and other business districts. It has a chubby body for nothing. After learning the skills of many world-class coffee masters for a long time, it can now wave the mechanical arm 1: 1 to reproduce the coffee and latte made by the master himself.

Coffee has become an essential drink for many "migrant workers", and the research, development, production and iteration of AI coffee machines are getting faster and faster. The latest JAKA small auxiliary robot is a relatively compact interactive robot. After making coffee according to the guest's wishes, it can also carry out the flower pulling process and hand the coffee to the guest, which can make about 30 cups of coffee per hour.

Intelligent temperature measurement has become an indispensable link, not only in business districts, but also in various places. It is very important to use more efficient and convenient temperature measuring tools and means in places with large traffic. Based on the AI capability of video structure, UCloud launched the product of "Face Recognition Temperature Measurement", which combined with infrared temperature measurement, dynamic face detection, living body detection, face recognition and other technologies, and can realize single temperature measurement, real name registration, witness verification and health code verification in 1 second. At present, it has assisted and replaced manual security inspection, temperature measurement and attendance in airports, hospitals, universities and other scenes to achieve effective management of people flow data.

Robots entering home service are developing faster than expected.

Back to the scene of family life, Ubisoft recently released the fourth-generation large-scale humanoid service robot "Walker X". This robot not only has very flexible limbs, it can go up and down stairs, massage people and play chess with people.

It is expected to be applied to smart home service scenarios in the near future. In addition to humanoid robots, there are also robots that can talk to various smart devices in the home to help home intelligent management. For example, A.O. Smith Group's fully connected and fully controlled intelligent IOT system based on AI technology can control the heating and cooling system at home in real time, and even help you calculate which is more economical to use gas or electricity.

AI technology permeates all aspects.

As a mobile tool that has always accompanied human beings, all kinds of applications blossom and all kinds of software contend. Flower recognition is a mobile phone application that is well known and used by many people. It is based on artificial intelligence identification technology. When people meet flowers and trees they don't know, they can pick up their mobile phones and take a photo to show the names, habits, related poems, photos and other information of the plants.

Not only identifying flowers and plants, but also intelligent language translation software on mobile phones has become very popular. The accuracy of picture text extraction and translation between different languages has been very high.

But AI recognizes Oracle Bone Inscriptions. Have you seen it? Hehe information has been able to identify Oracle Bone Inscriptions 3600 years ago through intelligent character recognition technology. Although the technology is still in the internal testing stage, it has achieved initial results.

The relevant person in charge said, "The common intelligent character recognition technologies in our lives are mostly aimed at handwritten or printed modern Chinese characters. The difficulties in Oracle Bone Inscriptions's identification are that the Oracle bones are seriously incomplete, the materials are difficult to obtain, and the rubbings are not clear, all of which need technical solutions. For example, there are few sample materials. From a technical point of view, it is necessary to solve the problem of small sample training. At present, it is mainly to do preliminary research, and more work is still on the road. "

Digital city AI promotes the construction of digital city.

These products, whether tangible reception service robots or intangible AI identification products, are mainly developed for people's life services, and are common scenes in daily life. Their common feature is that they can help people achieve a better life and are relatively familiar with it.

In the process of human development, urban construction and problem management have been accompanied by the development of human civilization.

Artificial intelligence constantly provides fresh solutions in empowering urban construction, promoting digital governance and solving urban diseases. Technicians are also constantly innovating and developing advanced "future tools" to replace backward "traditional tools". Back to now, in some production enterprise parks and urban construction scenes, many AI products have also been put into use or entered the debugging stage.

Artificial intelligence reshapes the face of future parks.

Now more and more industries have entered the stage of agglomeration development, and various cities have planned software parks, high-tech parks, film and television creative parks and so on. In some large parks or scenic spots, it is usually necessary to arrange shuttle buses. SenseAuto self-driving AR minibus of Shangtang Technology is a driverless car developed for future traffic, which combines augmented reality technology with autonomous driving technology for the first time. He can not only let passengers feel the automatic driving technology, but also feel the future world of virtual reality while driving. For example, on the way to the designated place by bus, passengers can see landmarks, billboards and even some performances that set off the atmosphere while watching the real thing through augmented reality and other technologies. For example, in the event of an automobile accident in the future, the AI automatic claims platform can automatically restore the scene according to the vehicle driving record, without the need for the owner to wait in place and make quick claims.

When enterprises settled in the park, the tour guide service began to be gradually replaced by robots. For example, Shi Xiaohua, an AI digital employee of China Petrochemical Company, is about to join China Petrochemical Intelligent Operation Center.

Shi Xiaohua broke through the traditional interpretation. It can not only receive visitors at any time, make real-time data report with the production system, but also switch between applications of various systems through voice commands. You can also switch the real-time video monitoring of production to any factory, gas station, etc. This will replace a lot of human work and greatly improve efficiency.

Science and technology solve traditional urban problems

With the implementation of garbage sorting requirements in various places, garbage sorting robots have come in handy in large enterprise parks, squares and other flat and wide areas. These robots can not be afraid of high temperature and cold weather, instead of traditional workers to engage in outdoor work, and can identify different kinds of garbage. When you encounter garbage such as plastic bottles and cigarette cases, you can use a robotic arm to clamp it in your body and classify it into recyclable garbage.

Of course, there are also some robots, which are a group of cleaning robots with more focused functions and facing professional scenes. Relying on the deep integration and precise positioning technology of sensors, they can clean special scenes without dead ends, and can replace some outdoor hard and high-risk jobs in the future, such as glass cleaning of high-rise exterior walls and underground pipeline cleaning. In order to reduce the labor burden of human beings.

Digital transformation AI promotes industrial digitalization

"The digital age has brought a subversive revolution to the manufacturing industry." Dong Mingzhu, chairman of Gree, said that digitalization covers the needs of different fields, and if the industry realizes automation and reforms with digitalization, it will bring about greater take-off. As a subversive technology leading the future of the world, artificial intelligence has become an important part of new infrastructure, an important force to promote industrial digitalization, and is creating new industries and new formats.

Industrial intelligence is the general trend.

"

AI promotes the endless development of industrial ecology.

Facing the great wave of enterprise's "new infrastructure" and digital intelligence upgrading, Iflytek has integrated the advantages of artificial intelligence technology and industrial landing experience for more than 20 years, built a "scene value+capability foundation", penetrated into all business chains, and accelerated the digital transformation and upgrading of enterprises.

In the industrial field, Iflytek launched the "Shun Feng Er" industrial cloud platform in 2020, and built an AI empowerment platform for industries such as energy, chemical industry and machinery manufacturing around industrial application scenarios such as equipment predictive maintenance, product quality inspection, human-computer interaction and safe production.

On the production line driven by Zhejiang Changjie, relying on the industrial quality inspection system, the product quality inspection mode has been upgraded from the previous "workers' deaf ear recognition" to "machine automatic recognition", realizing the automatic judgment of the motor without people, with the detection consistency rate of 90% and the recognition accuracy rate of 96%. The system can improve the production efficiency of manufacturing enterprises by about 15% and increase the company's income by about 30%.

Building a benchmark intelligent computing center

As one of the new infrastructure equipment, artificial intelligence platform tools are very important for the innovation and development of the industry. In early July, Industry-University-Research Innovation Alliance of Artificial Intelligence of China Academy of Sciences released a new generation of artificial intelligence computing platform, which set an industry benchmark for intelligent computing centers. The platform is positioned as the first cross-modal and universal AI innovation service platform in China, aiming to build a benchmark for the construction of intelligent computing centers and provide an open, inclusive, universal, green, efficient and accessible new generation artificial intelligence platform scheme for the development of intelligent computing industry.

The platform has four advantages: first, it adopts an open architecture, is compatible with mainstream software application ecology, and has the characteristics of wide use, flexible migration and low difficulty in compilation and development. Second, it supports a variety of chip combinations and provides diverse and rich computing power, which can meet the needs of AI full chain applications such as simulation, training and reasoning; Third, the bottom computing infrastructure adopts phase change immersion liquid cooling technology, which greatly improves the unit computing efficiency and reduces the energy consumption cost by 30%; Fourth, through a transparent price model, it can provide reference and construction standards for the market and effectively avoid the waste of public financial resources.

"The Chinese Academy of Sciences has produced a large number of major scientific research achievements with international leading level in the field of artificial intelligence, and has the ability to innovate artificial intelligence technology in the whole chain. It should assume the responsibility of building an artificial intelligence technology service system and deepening the promotion and application of AI technology. " Yang Jianhua, deputy secretary, vice chairman and general manager of Guo Ke Holding Party Committee, believes that the platform integrates many achievements of artificial intelligence technology of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the realization path is clear, which can provide a standard replicable model for the construction of regional intelligent computing centers.
