Yin Shiming said that 2019 is the first year of artificial intelligence industrialization, and artificial intelligence will be applied on a large scale.

On August 29th, the 4th Baidu Cloud Intelligence Summit was held in Beijing. The theme of this session was “accelerating industrial intelligence”.

The reason for this theme, Baidu vice president, general manager of the smart cloud business group Yin Shiming said, 2019 is the first year of artificial intelligence industrialization, Artificial intelligence will be applied on a large scale. He also proposed artificial intelligence industrialized intelligent formula: artificial intelligence industrialization = (smart computing * intelligent application) ^ intelligent ecology. That is to say, intelligent computing and intelligent applications are mutually promoted, and the development of artificial intelligence is realized through the intelligent ecological realization of exponential development.

Yin Shiming divides the artificial intelligence era into three development stages: the first stage (2016-2019) is the artificial intelligence infrastructure stage, technology meets computing power, algorithm, data requirements In the second phase (2019-2025), artificial intelligence applications will be industrialized on a large scale. The third stage (after 2025) will enter the era of comprehensive artificial intelligence.

From Baidu

To achieve large-scale artificial intelligence applications, it is necessary to make the artificial intelligence infrastructure achieve full scene coverage, flexible deployment, cost reduction, security improvement, and lower development threshold.

To this end, Baidu Cloud released as many as 20 new products, including Baidu Kunlun Cloud Server, CDN Edge Compute Node BEC, Edge AI Server, Flexible Bare Metal Server, Archive Storage, Baidu Machine Learning BML4.0, Efficiency Cloud, 4K Video Processing Solution, Smart Call Secretary, Digital Human Platform.

Baidu Kunlun Cloud Server is one of the most important products. In July last year, Baidu released the AI ​​chip “Kunlun” for server, Kunlun cloud server
