Liu Yunjie, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering:

In the future, people can customize the network they need

Today, Internet technology has achieved great success in the field of commercial consumption. Internet applications are expanding from the field of consumption to the field of production, and are deeply integrated with the real economy such as industry and energy. This puts forward higher requirements on the real-time, security, service level, massive data processing and resource scheduling capabilities of network communications, and the sustainable development of the network has gradually become the focus of global attention.

In Liu Yunjie's view, the existing network is facing numerous challenges. One is the rapid growth of global IP traffic represented by the mobile Internet, which brings huge pressure and challenges to network infrastructure, and video service providers (such as OTT) pay huge costs for this. Second, the current Internet cannot meet the needs of new services such as 4K/8K and AR/VR. Both 4K/8K and AR/VR put forward requirements for high-speed, large-stream, and low-latency network protocols. Third, the Internet, which is deeply integrated with the real economy, faces challenges in network security, real-time, control, and scalability.

Liu Yunjie said that in the future Internet era, people can open the corresponding network at any time through software-defined methods and virtualized technologies. "The traditional network is a'hardware' network made of routers and optical fibers. The network has no intelligence and no brain. The future network will be based on software, and 70% will be composed of software. This will not only greatly save geophysical resources, but also move from being closed. Open. In layman's terms, people can customize what kind of network they need. Everyone can design and do what they can and get what they need. The service will be more convenient and faster."

To build the future network, it is necessary to build an intelligent network highway on the basis of the existing network architecture. The future network has been incorporated into the strategic planning of various countries and has become the focus of global competition. In my country, a major national science and technology infrastructure with a total investment of 1.67 billion yuan in 2016-the Future Network Experimental Facilities Project (CENI) was officially launched.

Liu Yunjie introduced that as the only major national scientific and technological infrastructure built by my country in the field of communications and information, CENI will build a batch of open, easy-to-use, and sustainable large-scale general future network test facilities and environments in the next five years. The project will use a backbone network and 133 edge networks in more than 40 cities to implement a new network architecture, and will achieve new breakthroughs in network intelligence and controllability.

Xu Yulin, Senior Vice President of iFlytek Co., Ltd.:

Artificial intelligence will become a good assistant for humans

"In the future, artificial intelligence will empower the whole society and become the assistant of mankind. Artificial intelligence is not to replace people, but to make people. Let us build a better world with artificial intelligence." Xu Yulin said that the development of the IT industry has experienced five times Inspur is now in the process of developing from the mobile Internet to the Internet of Everything. In this process, more and more devices will get closer and closer to people's lives. Under such a premise, the era of human-computer interaction, which is based on voice and supplemented by keyboard and touch, is coming under the condition of no screen, mobile, and original factory in the future.

The development of artificial intelligence arose on the basis of the development of the IT industry. Xu Yulin said that there are three stages in the development of artificial intelligence, namely computational intelligence, perceptual intelligence, and cognitive intelligence. Computational intelligence is the ability of machines to store and calculate; perceptual intelligence is the ability of machines to hear and speak, including speech recognition, speech synthesis, image recognition, etc.; cognitive intelligence is to allow machines to understand and think.

Regarding the technological progress of artificial intelligence, Xu Yulin said that its application fields are very wide, and breakthroughs have been made in reading comprehension, automatic machine inspection, medical imaging, and autonomous driving. Especially in the fields of education, medical care, public security, justice, and government services, this shows that the use of artificial intelligence is of great significance, and artificial intelligence will become a good assistant to mankind.

Xu Yulin said that artificial intelligence is not only a huge industry, but also a great social historical process. It is not a matter of any company, scientist, or entrepreneur. It is a great society in which the whole society will participate. The course of history. "We believe that it is not enough for the development of the artificial intelligence industry to rely on one or a few companies. It requires more companies to participate, and at the same time requires the government and all aspects of society to promote the development of this industry."

Xu Yulin emphasized that the growth rate of Chongqing's demand for artificial intelligence is among the highest in the country. This shows the vitality of Chongqing's artificial intelligence, which shows that Chongqing's economy is full of vitality, and the artificial intelligence industry in the future will also be limitless.

Neil Mendelssohn, Oracle Global Vice President:

Enjoy the convenience of life brought by artificial intelligence

"The purpose of our efforts is not to make machines better, but to make our lives better, and to improve the quality of human life, and let everyone enjoy the process." For example, Neal Mendelssohn, if the coffee machine can Remembering people's preferences for drinking coffee can reduce human labor.

Neil Mendelssohn said that such an example can also be applied to other fields, including banking and other industries, and it can also be applied to some children's lives or studies.

The application of artificial intelligence and big data can greatly improve people's work efficiency. Neil Mendelssohn introduced that all people's work is to remember when and where they should be done through their own memory, but if they can use big data analysis and use artificial intelligence to remind people to do it at the right time This can save people a lot of time and energy, thereby improving work efficiency.

Therefore, many companies have invested a lot of intelligence, manpower, and material resources in the development and application of artificial intelligence and big data. Many companies also collect a lot of data, but not all of the data is well used. Neil Mendelssohn believes that data should not be an island, it should be fluid. Only after these data can be communicated and analyzed can they provide more valuable functions for human beings and provide better decision-making for human beings. Good reference.

In Neil Mendelssohn's view, if humans want to use artificial intelligence to make life more convenient, they must have the courage to try and dare to take the hidden risks. "If you don’t try, there is no return. If you want to reduce all the Risk, then you cannot discover anything new."

Neil Mendelssohn stated that the goal of artificial intelligence is to improve people’s lives and make people’s lives better. This is also a goal and vision that countless people have worked hard for and are proud of. People should enjoy the whole process instead of being afraid. The emergence of all new things including artificial intelligence.
