Lei Jun, founder of Xiaomi, announced on social media that the international version of Xiaomi's flagship device will integrate Google's AI large model Google Gemini, aiming to provide a smarter and more intuitive user experience. Google Gemini is an advanced multimodal AI model developed by Google that can recognize, understand, and process various types of information.

In a recent interview, Lei Jun, the founder of Xiaomi Group, shared his insights on artificial intelligence and revealed that if Xiaomi had not decided to enter the car manufacturing field in 2021, the company might now be more focused on AI. Lei Jun pointed out that even while building cars, Xiaomi's development in artificial intelligence has not lagged behind the industry. He emphasized that Xiaomi has actually been actively engaged in AI-related work, though it has been relatively less publicized.

Lei Jun proposed strengthening the cultivation of artificial intelligence talent to meet the demands of technological transformation. He suggested promoting AI literacy education from the compulsory education stage. He advocated for the development of AI-related majors in higher education to cultivate more talent. Moreover, he emphasized the need to standardize the safe application of intelligent driving products to ensure user safety.
