The designs feature elements like the Eiffel Tower, Monet's Water Lilies, and Van Gogh's Starry Night Sunflowers, making them both beautiful and culturally significant. The product was well-received during field research in Paris, demonstrating the potential of AI technology in traditional manufacturing.

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.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has just announced a significant $4 billion investment aimed at supporting domestic semiconductor wafer production and advancing American technology. This investment is part of the CHIPS Act, intended to boost domestic semiconductor wafer production and enhance the U.S. technological prowess. The fortunate recipient this time is GlobalWafers, which has reached a preliminary non-binding memorandum of understanding (PMT) with the Commerce Department, securing this s

As the global tide of artificial intelligence sweeps across the world, Xiaomi Group is quietly positioning itself in the embodied intelligence business, aiming to seize the initiative in the next wave of AI. According to 36Kr, Xiaomi has partnered with robotics expert Wang Tianmiao to invest in an embodied intelligence tech company named "Xiaoyu Intelligence Manufacturing". This marks Xiaomi's first external investment in the embodied intelligence sector."Xiaoyu Intelligence Manufacturing" was e

Zhou Hongyi's views on Apple's abandonment of its car manufacturing plans, Apple's determination and competitive attitude, and the importance of going all in on AI.

Apple cancels its plans for developing self-driving electric vehicles and shifts focus to its artificial intelligence department. Li Xiang believes that Apple's decision to abandon car manufacturing is the right choice and considers artificial intelligence to be a crucial battlefield for Apple. Musk posted emojis in tribute to Apple's decision.

Apple's decision to abandon car manufacturing and focus on artificial intelligence is absolutely the right strategic choice. Artificial intelligence will become the top-level entry point for all devices, services, applications, and transactions. If Apple succeeds in the automotive sector, its market value will increase by $2 trillion. The electrification of cars is just the first half, while artificial intelligence is the final match.

Thoroughly implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party, deeply comprehend and apply General Secretary Xi Jinping's important discourse on new type industrialization. Review the historic achievements of new type industrialization in our country since the 18th National Congress, and advance the strategic positioning of new type industrialization. Focus on the critical nature of manufacturing, accelerate the construction of a strong manufacturing nation, and promote the coordinated development of technological innovation and industry.

Apple Inc. cancels its car manufacturing plans and shifts focus to a generative AI team, with employees potentially facing internal transfers or layoffs. The stock price rises slightly by 0.81%. Tesla's head, Elon Musk, celebrates as Apple faces challenges in the electric vehicle market. Apple's investment in the artificial intelligence sector is relatively lagging, making generative AI an opportunity for the company, which plans to offer generative AI features by late 2024.

OpenAI has recently initiated the development of an early warning system for GPT-4 to explore whether large language models can improve the efficiency of obtaining information about biological threats compared to the internet. The system is intended to serve as a 'trigger' to indicate potential biological weapons. A study involving 100 participants suggests that using GPT-4 in combination with the internet offers slight improvements in the accuracy and completeness of biological hazard tasks, though the results are not significant. The evaluation focused solely on information retrieval rather than actual applications and did not examine GPT-4's role in the development of new biological weapons.

An Australian research team has successfully shortened the manufacturing cycle of perovskite solar cells using AI technology, breaking the traditional manufacturing time constraints. Perovskite solar cells are low-cost and stable, with the new manufacturing method achieving a power conversion efficiency of 16.9%, setting the best record without human intervention. The research team has successfully predicted and manufactured thousands of solar cells using machine learning models, demonstrating commercial application potential. Scientists stated that this technology could be used to test and prototype other types of solar cells and are willing to collaborate further with industry partners.

The application of generative AI in manufacturing includes machine-generated event monitoring, customer service automation, document search and synthesis, product/content catalog discovery, and supply chain advisory. In healthcare, generative AI is used to enhance the search and connection of clinical data, providing a personalized medical experience. Generative AI not only makes strides in the healthcare and manufacturing sectors but also offers opportunities and innovations for other industries.

Generative AI is sweeping across various industries and is being rapidly adopted in manufacturing. It can serve as a digital twin to simulate production lines or factory operations without shutting down the actual production line. When applied to computer vision, Generative AI can handle more complex tasks, putting jobs currently performed by blue-collar workers at risk of replacement. Generative AI captures the knowledge and expertise of experienced blue-collar workers, creating a digital supervisory twin that can support entire production lines. The manufacturing industry should pay attention to the impacts of Generative AI and actively help blue-collar workers adapt.
