Explore the road to innovation and create a qualitatively changed future.
On October 28, the “Sina News·2024 Discovery Conference” co-organized by Weibo and Sina News and fully supported by the EMBA of Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management was held in Beijing. With the theme of “Innovation and Qualitative Change”, this conference brings together experts, scholars, industry leaders, as well as explorers and practitioners in the field of digital technology to discuss how new productivity can empower industrial upgrading, promote economic structure optimization, and comprehensive social development. Develop, analyze, and interpret the core of new productivity to provide useful reference for related industries.
Exploring new driving forces for social development in the era of new quality productivity
With the continuous advancement of science and technology, a new form of productivity – new productivity – has quietly emerged around the world. As a “bright pearl” in new productivity, artificial intelligence has injected new vitality into all walks of life. “In this era, technology is no longer just a tool in the hands of professionals, but has gradually become a part of ordinary people’s lives. This change means that technological innovation must be close to user needs and better serve people.” Weibo CEO Wang Gaofei In his speech, he said, “Artificial intelligence is like a key, unlocking new areas of human cognition, enabling us to view the world from a broader perspective, and leading us to unknown heights of wisdom.”
In order to tap the greater potential of new productive forces in promoting social development, Chai Tianyou, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, IEEE Life Fellow, and IFAC Fellow, Wu Sa, deputy director of the Economic Research Institute of the China Academy of Macroeconomics, Weibo COO, Sina Mobile CEO, Wang Wei, Dean of Sina AI Media Research Institute, and Liu Weiguang, Senior Vice President of Alibaba Cloud Intelligence Group and President of the Public Cloud Division, conducted in-depth discussions on the topic “Exploring the Road to Innovation: Exploration Practice and Future Prospects Driven by New Productivity” .
Chai Tianyou shared from the perspective of industrial intelligence. He said: “If we can realize industrial intelligence, we can compress the three-layer structure of the industrial production line into a two-layer structure, which will greatly improve productivity.”
Wu Sa pointed out that the development of new productive forces requires a good grasp of four pairs of relationships: “The first is the relationship between the government and the market, the second is the relationship between tradition and emerging, the third is the relationship between innovation and risk, and the fourth is the relationship between autonomy and openness.”
“AI technology has changed the methodology for solving problems and will greatly broaden the boundaries of human cognition. Computing power and models can extend the most extreme wisdom in the human brain to more scenarios.” Liu Weiguang believes that the explosion of AI applications in 2024 is just the starting point , what AI will really drive in the future will be enterprise-level innovation scenarios, and new productivity will bring about a new round of application paradigm changes.
Wang Wei shared the “Zhiwei Big Model” in his speech. “Weibo is both a social platform and a media platform. Its information, comments, and even emoticons are all unique. During the model training process, we added a lot of corpus with Weibo characteristics, so our Zhiwei The large model is a multi-interaction large language model that is more suitable for Weibo scenarios.”
New productivity drives high-quality development of enabling industries
Nowadays, the integrated development of technological innovation and industrial innovation is the general trend. New productivity represented by artificial intelligence is leading traditional industries into a new stage of high-quality development. In the high-end dialogue session of the conference, He Yifan, deputy editor-in-chief of “Chinese Entrepreneur” magazine, Bai Chongen, senior professor of liberal arts at Tsinghua University and dean of Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management, Zhou Hongyi, founder of 360 Group, and He Xiaopeng, chairman and CEO of Xpeng Motors, spoke with ” How does new productivity empower the industrial economy? 》Carried out ideological collision and exchange discussions on the topic.
“When we talk about new productivity, we cannot do without a big question, which is what kind of industrial development environment it requires, and different industries have different needs.” He Yifan said, “For example, in AI, AI The relationship between safety and security is now a common issue in the industry.”
Bai Chongen believes that the development of AI has two possible effects. One is to empower people and make their lives more meaningful. Another possibility is to replace people. “I hope everyone can choose to do more empowerment and less replacement of the meaning of people’s lives. This may be our ultimate need.”
Zhou Hongyi pointed out, “If AI is to truly trigger an industrial revolution in China, it must be turned from an atomic bomb into a tea egg, brought down from the altar, and allowed to be used in conjunction with every enterprise. If this can be done, I think AI will not destroy all industries, but will reshape them all.”
He Xiaopeng said, “I believe that AI cars will bring huge changes to future cars. By next year, cars without strong AI capabilities and strong autonomous driving capabilities will begin to be difficult to sell. This year we see a very obvious The trend is that the sales of fuel vehicles are declining very quickly.”
Intelligent technology leads the way to create a qualitatively changed future
Led by smart technology, more and more industries are beginning to undergo digital transformation to better adapt to future market trends. At the conference, Wei Qing, chief technology officer of Microsoft (China) Co., Ltd., Zhao Shiqi, vice president of Baidu and general manager of Baidu Search, and Dong Libin, president of Huawei Cloud Marketing Department, focused on “Co-creating a qualitatively changing future: Digital transformation and ecological construction led by intelligent technology” Views were shared on the topic.
“If you don’t know people, how can you know tools?” Wei Qing said, “Our human body itself is a collection of feeling, perception, cognition, memory, judgment, planning, reasoning, action, and feedback, and each of these words is a point that artificial intelligence needs to break through now. Every point All have a chance.”
Zhao Shiqi believes that the development of intelligent agents has accelerated the process of large-scale application of AI. “We firmly believe that only by distributing intelligent agents can we start the road to gold mining. Baidu Wenxin Intelligent Agent Platform has already opened up the closed business loop of ‘development-distribution-realization’.”
Dong Libin said, “AI has brought new problem-solving methods to all walks of life. A core advantage of China’s development of AI is not only in terms of computing power and algorithms, but also because we have endless scenarios. By combining these scenarios with AI, we will find better ways to solve problems.”
Gao Qingyi, executive member of the Science Popularization Committee of the China Computer Federation, said, “In 2024, we have jointly experienced a very important year in scientific and technological innovation that has never been seen in a century. During this year, we have seen the emergence of large-scale artificial intelligence models. The future computing method represented by controlled nuclear fusion, the future energy development direction represented by controllable nuclear fusion, and the future material development direction represented by room temperature superconducting nanomaterials. This is the development direction of tools, Great progress has been made in the fields of new energy and new materials.”
Today, with the explosion of smart technologies such as AI, new productivity has become an important force driving high-quality development of society. The new industries, new models, and new kinetic energy it has spawned are profoundly changing the production and lifestyle of human society. The 2024 Discovery Conference builds a platform for exchanges and sharing between industry and academia, gathers wisdom, empowers the innovation and implementation of new productivity, and contributes the “power of Weibo” to building a better future.
