Baidu Feipiao (Wuhan) Artificial Intelligence Industry Empowerment Center lands in Hanyang, creating a new highland for artificial intelligence development
At present, the integrated development of digital economy and real industry is accelerating, and Hanyang District of Wuhan City relies on digital economy to drive the transformation and upgrading of six major industries. Guo Xiaozhuan, deputy secretary of the Hanyang District Party Committee and director of the District People's Government, said in his speech that artificial intelligence is an important driving force for a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation. As the "leading goose" of domestic artificial intelligence, Baidu is China's benchmark in the field of artificial intelligence. Baidu Feipiao Artificial Intelligence Industry Empowerment Center has officially landed in Hanyang. It will promote the deep integration of AI technology with Hanyang's "1+6" industry, open up the last mile of AI technology to empower enterprises, realize the integration of industry and technological innovation, and move towards cooperation. A new level of win-win. The Hanyang District Government will also fully support the construction of Baidu Feipiao (Wuhan) Artificial Intelligence Industry Empowerment Center, provide one-stop services for settled enterprises, and continue to create a new highland for the development of artificial intelligence.
Hanyang District took the lead in Wuhan City in 2020 to propose a breakthrough development of the digital economy and introduced a series of special policies for featured tracks. At the event site, relevant leaders introduced planning measures to support the development of the artificial intelligence industry in Hanyang District.
The Flying Paddle and Wenxin large-scale models continue to cultivate the regional ecology, and have been deployed in the central region for many years. At present, Feipiao and Wenxin Big Model have accumulated services covering 1,730 Wuhan companies, focusing on empowering 181 companies with AI applications; they have reached "Pinecone Base" school-enterprise cooperation with 6 universities in Wuhan, and 22 local universities have used Feipiao. Paddle teaching and credit courses are offered; 11 flying paddle pilot groups were established in Wuhan, with more than 1,500 members, and many outstanding developer representatives have emerged.
Ma Yanjun, general manager of Baidu's AI technology ecosystem, said that Baidu will integrate Baidu's AI technology services, solutions and ecological resources based on Baidu Feipiao (Wuhan) Artificial Intelligence Industry Empowerment Center to fully support Wuhan's industry, academia, research and development sectors with low threshold and high efficiency. Apply AI technology and resources to jointly promote the training of compound AI talents and the intelligent upgrading of key industries.
Ma Yanjun mentioned in his speech that on August 31, Baidu’s self-developed knowledge-enhanced large language model Wenxinyiyan was the first to be fully opened to the whole society. Users can fully experience the four major functions of generative AI: understanding, generation, logic, and memory. core competencies. Wen Xin Yiyan's basic model, Wen Xin Large Model, was recently upgraded to version 3.5. Thanks to the co-evolution with the Feipiao deep learning platform, the effect and efficiency have been greatly improved. It can be said that Fei Paddle has accelerated Wenxin Yiyan’s opening to the whole society, providing real-time response and stable support for the implementation of Wenxin’s large model in all parties. Currently, the Flying Paddle ecosystem is becoming increasingly prosperous, having gathered 8 million developers, serving 220,000 enterprises and institutions, and creating 800,000 models.
In terms of educational ecology, Flying Paddle and Huazhong University of Science and Technology have promoted the integration of production and education, which has become a model of school-enterprise cooperation. Zhong Sheng, deputy dean of the School of Artificial Intelligence and Automation at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, said that the rapid development of technologies such as large models and machine vision has given rise to new research problems, which has put forward new requirements for industrial intelligence and AI talent training. In this regard, the college and Flying Paddle have promoted a series of fruitful practice of integration of production and education.
Empower ecological partners to continuously upgrade large-model industrial applications and accelerate the implementation of them
As large models penetrate into the core scenes of the industry, enterprises are encountering more and more pain points and difficulties. Feipiao and Wenxin large models are also continuing to upgrade their empowerment of ecological partners. At the event, representatives of 7 Wuhan companies including Baoyimo Technology, Plug, Wuhan Disaiwei, Yichuang Zhilian, Plastic Omnium, Xiangdian Technology, and Zhongtai Xinda Environmental Protection Technology were awarded the "Baidu AI Technology Ecosystem Preferred Partner" ". In the future, partners will receive more technical guidance and resource introduction from Baidu Flying Paddle (Wuhan) Artificial Intelligence Industry Empowerment Center.
Feipiao and Wenxin Big Model have joined hands with ecological partners to apply deep learning, large model and other technologies to core scenarios in industry and other fields, creating a series of results.
Hu Jianping, deputy general manager of Wuhan Yimo Technology Co., Ltd., a gazelle enterprise in Hubei Province, shared the role of big data and big models in upgrading from craftsman wisdom to intelligent manufacturing. He said that Wenxin Large Model is the base and bridge for the intelligence of the manufacturing industry. Based on the Wenxin large model, Yimo Technology has created a general knowledge base for the mold manufacturing industry, which can respond to users' various knowledge questions within 1 second; at the same time, it uses the Wenxin large model to build a proprietary knowledge base for enterprises, integrating "old masters" The knowledge is accumulated into corporate assets. In addition, Yimo Technology has also created an intelligent assistant for the MES system. Users only need to interact with the AI and make demands, and the AI will recognize the user's intention and automatically perform the corresponding operations in the MES system. In the future, Yimo Technology plans to build full-scenario AI applications based on the flying paddle and Wenxin large models.
With the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology, enterprises' needs for visual inspection are changing, and they are beginning to think about how to reduce the cost of implementing the AI industry through technological innovation. Liu Yiming, general manager of Xiangdian Technology, a "little giant" technology company in Wuhan, shared an intelligent industrial vision platform software PixAI based on flying paddles, which integrates model training and solution construction. Through a completely graphical interface, no coding is required. Generate complex industrial AI visual inspection solutions to solve the detection problems of complex appearance defects such as laser welding defects and glue coating defects. The defect detection rate is as high as 99.99%.
"Wenxin China Tour" is a series of "Intelligence, Self-Strength, Science, Innovation and Empowerment" activities co-sponsored by Baidu Wenxin Model and Feipiao under the guidance of the National Engineering Research Center for Deep Learning Technology and Application and with the support of local governments. In the future, the "Wenxin China Tour" will go deep into more cities and regions, focus on the current status and development pain points of local industrial intelligence, comprehensively support the low-threshold and high-efficiency application of AI technology and resources in industry, academia and research, and promote the training and development of complex AI talents. The intelligent transformation and upgrading of key industries will help more regions seize the opportunities in the era of large-scale models and accelerate the realization of high-quality development.
