Hey tech enthusiasts! 🤖 Guess what? The Chinese mainland just hit a massive milestone with over 600 million registered users for generative AI services! That's almost twice the population of the U.S.! 😱
Zhao Zhiguo, the chief engineer at the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), spilled the tea on this exciting development. ☕ He highlighted that the country's core AI industry is buzzing, with more than 4,500 companies diving into the AI game. Talk about an AI fiesta! 🎉
Currently, nearly 200 generative AI models are available to the public. Zhao emphasized the need to boost AI infrastructure to make these services even more accessible and adaptable. The goal? To speed up the training and large-scale application of AI models across the board. 🏃♂️💨
But that's not all! The telecommunications giant, China Mobile, just dropped a new evaluation standard for AI large models. Collaborating with the China Electronics Standardization Institute and 16 other key enterprises, they're providing a handy guide for companies to pick out top-notch AI models. 📝✨
This new standard zeroes in on six key areas: functionality, accuracy, reliability, safety, interactivity, and applicability. Basically, it's all about ensuring these AI models are up to scratch for real-world applications across industries like telecommunications, transportation, energy, and manufacturing. 🌐🚗⚡🏭
With all these moves, the Chinese mainland's AI scene is heating up! 🔥 Keep an eye out, because the future of AI is unfolding right before our eyes! 👀✨
