The port and shipping logistics industry is embracing GPT, afraid of being defeated by AI competitors | logistics industry | competitors
As a hot topic in 2023, GPT is sweeping across various industries, sparking a new wave of digital and intelligent development. The port and shipping logistics industry is no exception. Recently, hundreds of industry researchers and entrepreneurs came to Shanghai to explore how the port and shipping logistics industry can spark with GPT.
At this "Port and Shipping Logistics Industry GPT Artificial Intelligence Application Conference", industry insiders expressed their opinions.
Lin Shangmao, Chief Operating Officer of Hangzhou Weisi Technology, pointed out that GPT technology has overturned the way and habits of human-computer interaction, and natural language can achieve human-computer communication. And this means that even if a person does not understand programming languages, they can still use artificial intelligence to parse and process massive maritime data, greatly improving industry efficiency and data processing capabilities, and ensuring data accuracy.
Jia Zhilin, General Manager of Yuehai Supply Chain Co., Ltd., believes that using digital technologies such as GPT to redefine workflow, customers, and positions greatly saves time and costs. At the same time, the company did not reduce its workforce, but instead made better use of job reduction and staffing increase to achieve greater benefits.
Dai Yue, General Manager of Port and Shipping Zongheng Digital Technology Co., Ltd., stated that in order for enterprises to achieve high-quality development, they need to go through three steps: online business, multi-party collaboration, and intelligence. The port and shipping logistics industry has the characteristics of long chains and intensification. For the port and shipping logistics industry, in order to make greater use of GPT, it should consider how to endow GPT with more capabilities and feed more knowledge, so that data can flow and business can run.
The words of an expert resonated widely: "GPT is like the hands and feet of a business, bringing great convenience to the enterprise. GPT mainly improves the operational efficiency of the enterprise from three aspects: understanding logistics conditions, optimizing paths, and achieving information interconnection with related enterprises, achieving the goal of cost reduction and efficiency increase. In the era of intelligence, enterprises will find that they will not be defeated by AI artificial intelligence, but will be defeated by competitors who are good at using AI. Similarly, those who do not use GPT will be defeated by those who embrace GPT."
It is reported that GPT has been partially applied in the port and shipping logistics industry, mainly focusing on route planning, cargo tracking and monitoring, ship scheduling, warehouse management, transportation cost control, and other aspects. In the future, the application of GPT in the port and shipping logistics industry will enter a rapid development stage, mainly including three aspects: firstly, GPT will be more deeply integrated with artificial intelligence technology, further improving its application efficiency and changing the industry. Secondly, the popularization of digital technology and Internet of Things technology has provided more development and application prospects for GPT. Thirdly, all participants in the supply chain can obtain more data and information through GPT, such as transportation progress, goods status, etc., in order to establish more refined supply chain collaboration relationships and achieve true global optimization.
