Speech by Yao Xing, Vice President of Tencent

Dear Mr. Dean Sanderson, Mr. Paul Evans, and everyone, Springer? VIPs from Nature Group, scientists and teachers from all over the world, media friends, Hello everyone!

I am very honored to invite you to participate in the second academic forum of Tencent AI Lab. In the next two days, our team and some heavyweight guests will be here to share with you the cutting-edge research on artificial intelligence such as game AI, medical AI and human-computer interaction. I look forward to your wonderful speech!

In the past two years, AI has developed rapidly for two years. AI has attracted a lot of attention. In the Internet industry, traditional industries, finance, manufacturing, and medical industries, artificial intelligence has become a hot word in the industry.

In the past two years, we have also deeply felt the changes and influence of AI on the entire industry. Whether it is face recognition for speech processing or speech recognition, intelligent machine translation for natural language processing, many AI applications have penetrated into every aspect of people's lives. The entire industry has also produced a group of AI startups, their emergence It also accelerates the process of AI industrialization.

The past year has also been a year of rapid development of Tencent AI Lab. We are committed to creating the mission of “academic influence, industry and output”. In the past year, Tencent AI Lab has held top international conferences such as NIPS, ICML, CVPR and ACL. Published more than 100 academic papers, making Tencent AI Lab a good reputation in the academic influence of the entire industry, in addition to our industrial output, including computer vision, speech recognition, natural language processing, big data, etc. The application of the product in the product makes our product form more efficient and convenient.

Today, with the rapid development of AI, we also clearly realize that the current AI's overall capability is still in the early stage, AI's productization capability is still single, and the commercialization scale of AI is still small. Everyone has high requirements for AI. Expectations for AI are high.

At present, the development of the entire AI industry still has great limitations. 1. Our AI application is limited to “industry + AI” rather than “AI+ industry”. The industry is still the core of the whole business. AI is not a decisive but an aid. 2. The commercialization scale of AI is too small. Compared with the commercialization of the entire information industry, our current AI commercialization model is less and lower. At present, the AI ​​industry cannot be an Internet era represented by “PC”. , and the mobile Internet era represented by "Mobile". 3, AI's full stack capability is poor, and now AI's ability is not Fullstack, but also stays in the local, subject to the surrounding environment is very large, AI does not currently have a complete End2End solution.

So today I would like to take this opportunity to share with you the Tencent AI Lab's thinking on these aspects. I also take this opportunity to share with you the new strategy of Tencent AI Lab. I hope that we can have more discussions and more cooperation. .

Strategy 1:

Tencent AI Lab Strategy: Universal Artificial Intelligence

Compared with human intelligence, current AI research and application are limited to a narrow scope. In recent years, our research and application in perception and cognition have developed rapidly, but compared with human intelligence. Our ability to make decisions in complex environments is also very thin (such as the ability of humans to walk in complex environments, such as multi-task decision-making capabilities), which is a requirement for general-purpose artificial intelligence. More roles, more constraints, more tasks are real-world reactions, and the environment that universal artificial intelligence faces. Tencent AI Lab will focus on the development of general artificial intelligence research, through the "AI + Game" to simulate the real world, build a virtual world, to explore the development of general artificial intelligence.

Strategy 2:

Tencent AI Lab Strategy: Virtual World and Real World Connectors

Today I would like to take this opportunity to announce that we will set up Tencent's robotic laboratory "Robotics X". Robotics X and AI Lab will become the dual-basic support for Tencent's AI industry. The reason why we want to set up a robot laboratory is that we firmly believe that for the whole AI industry, the virtual world's depiction of the real world will eventually be connected through a carrier. This "carrier" may be a speaker, maybe a pair of glasses, maybe a human figure. Robots, etc. In the end, this "carrier" can bear the "PC" of the Internet era and the "Mobile" of the mobile Internet era.

Strategy 3:

Tencent AI Lab Strategy: AI+ Medical

Tencent is committed to creating the concept of “technology + humanity”. We have always insisted that "technology is good", technology is not for technology itself, but for the better benefit of mankind. Last year, we released “Tencent Shadow”, which has an accuracy rate of 90% for early esophageal cancer. In the past few months, the application of Tencent's film has been extended from a single disease to a multi-disease screening, and a joint laboratory has been established with more than 100 top three hospitals in many provinces and cities across the country. In the future, Tencent's “AI+Medical” will focus on creating medical solutions for the entire process of “screening, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, etc.”, which will better empower the doctor and better assist patients.

The origin and goals of Nature's strategic cooperation:

Interdisciplinary cooperation, AI+Medical, build a production, study and research ecology

As we all know, Nature has a long-standing reputation in the world and is the leading academic journal in the field of science. Many important research results of artificial intelligence are first published in this journal. Moreover, natural science research has accumulated a network of top-notch scientists with multiple fields and interdisciplinaries, and has an unparalleled advantage in academic publishing. What is even more exciting is that natural science research has always been concerned about the development of general artificial intelligence, especially the use of artificial intelligence to solve major human problems such as medical treatment, and has a common development vision with AI Lab. Today, I am very happy to announce to you, Tencent AI Lab and Springer? The natural research under the Nature Group has reached a strategic cooperation to explore the development of general artificial intelligence. In the future, the cooperation between AI Lab and natural research will focus on three aspects:

First, break the border and promote exchanges between industry, academia and research. Next year, initiated by natural science research, the first Nature AI Conference hosted by Tencent AI Lab will be located in Shenzhen, which is the first international conference on AI theme of natural science research cooperation with technology companies. The Nature AI Conference will connect the world's most cutting-edge academic research with China's most dynamic industrial ecology and promote the development of artificial intelligence. As a unique sample of high-tech innovation, Shenzhen has established a first-class technology industrialization ecology in the deep integration of emerging technologies and the real economy. This is also an important reason why we chose to hold in Shenzhen.

Second, “AI+Medical” explores and solves major medical problems. In this cooperation, natural science research will give full play to its resource network in the medical field, and promote the interdisciplinary exchange between the medical industry and artificial intelligence through the establishment of “AI+Medical” Fellowship with Tencent, and promote the application of “AI+Medical”. development of. In this academic forum, we also specially invited Springer? Pep Pamies, editor-in-chief of the Biomedical Engineering Journal of Nature Group, shares the latest developments in “AI+Medical”.

Third, interdisciplinary cooperation to create "AI + ecology." General artificial intelligence is not only a study of machines, but also a study of humans, involving many fields of brain neuroscience, psychology and so on. In the field of application, artificial intelligence technology, like Internet technology, may become a new technology infrastructure in the future, empowering all walks of life. We hope to cooperate with natural science research to develop more interdisciplinary cooperation and research to create an “AI+ Ecology”.

Science and technology light up the light of humanity, but the road ahead does not bear the brilliance. We always believe that the ultimate goal of artificial intelligence is to empower people and realize their dream of self-dominance. Artificial intelligence is the power to change the world. Let's make AI Everywhere together, making AI ubiquitous. thank you all! (Tencent Cloud)
