Huawei officially proposes a comprehensive intelligence strategy, with Meng Wanzhou's latest statement: Beyond Imagination Computing Power in the Future | Huawei | Strategy
This morning, Meng Wanzhou, Vice Chairman, Rotating Chairman, and CFO of Huawei, delivered the latest keynote speech at the Huawei Fully Connected Conference 2023. He stated that currently, human society is accelerating towards an intelligent world, data is exploding, and intelligent technology is also advancing rapidly. Various models and algorithms based on powerful computing power are constantly emerging, and application scenarios are becoming increasingly diverse. The "vector effect" of innovation is becoming more prominent. In the future, beyond imagination, Huawei will officially launch a comprehensive intelligence strategy from All IP to All Cloud in the past decade, continuously building a solid computing power foundation to meet the diverse AI computing power needs of various industries, making the "black soil" thicker, and building a second choice for the world.
Beyond imagination in the future
Meng Wanzhou said that currently, human society is accelerating towards an intelligent world, data is exploding, and intelligent technology is also advancing rapidly. Various models and algorithms based on powerful computing power continue to emerge, with increasingly diverse application scenarios and innovative "vector effects" becoming more prominent.
"From the agricultural society, industrial society, to the information society, people have never stopped imagining the future world. Wherever imagination touches, technology turns stones into gold. Technology is like a horizon, and with every increase, the landscape of human civilization is changed. Every breakthrough in technology creates new application scenarios, extends the radius of activities, and allows us to see the infinite possibilities of technology creating the future time and time again." Meng Wanzhou said.
Meng Wanzhou introduced that over the past 30 years, in the wave of informatization and digitization, Huawei has never stopped imagining the future world, let alone stopping its efforts in the real world. Seize the main trends in uncertainty, based on the dual wheel drive of customer demand and technological innovation, build product leading advantages, and assist in industrial upgrading.
Huawei: A Ten Year Step from All IP to All Cloud
Meng Wanzhou said that since 2003, CT and IT have met in network infrastructure technology, and Huawei has proposed the All IP strategy to promote various technical standards and protocols in the communication field, moving from seven countries and eight systems to unity. "Cars on the same track, books on the same text," thus promoting the ubiquitous connection. Huawei supports the stable operation of over 1500 networks in over 170 countries and regions worldwide, connecting over one-third of the world's population.
In 2013, with the accelerated development of cloud computing technology, Huawei proposed the All Cloud strategy to accelerate the upgrade of digital transformation. Nowadays, Huawei Cloud has become one of the fastest growing mainstream cloud vendors in the world, thanks to continuous R&D investment and recognition from global customers. Huawei has deployed 30 regions and 84 availability zones globally, aggregated 42000 partners and 5 million developers worldwide, and served 3 million customers worldwide.
"The way of benefiting all things goes hand in hand with the times. The deeper we can see into history, the farther we can see into the future. Every leap in the industry adds a footnote to the times. From All IP to All Cloud, we have never stopped working hard," Meng Wanzhou said on site.
Huawei proposes a comprehensive intelligence strategy
From All IP to All Cloud, Meng Wanzhou officially announced at the conference that Huawei has proposed a comprehensive intelligence strategy to accelerate industry intelligence.
Meng Wanzhou stated that the goal of comprehensive intelligence is to "accelerate the intelligent transformation of thousands of industries.".
Firstly, make all objects join. Not only physical entities, but also logical and virtual; Not only digital devices, but also traditional terminals and devices; Not only does it make the data available, but it also makes the intention understandable.
Secondly, make all applications modelable, and through the big model paradigm, enable intelligent applications to quickly benefit everyone, every family, and every organization.
Thirdly, make all decisions computable. With the ubiquitous computing power, accelerating the omnipotence of intelligence, and continuously unleashing and stacking the potential of data in computation.
It is worth noting that Meng Wanzhou stated, "Under the guidance of a comprehensive intelligence strategy, Huawei will continue to build a solid computing power foundation, enabling a hundred models and thousands of states, and empowering thousands of industries."
The development of AI is crossing a turning point
Meng Wanzhou stated that artificial intelligence neural network models with parameters exceeding billions or even trillions are accelerating their entry into various industries, and the development of AI is also crossing a turning point.
She further elaborated that there has been a qualitative leap in the practicality of AI technology from the era of small models to the era of large models. In the past, different application scenarios required the development of different models. Nowadays, by absorbing a vast amount of knowledge, a large model can adapt to various business scenarios, greatly reducing the threshold for AI development and application, shortening the cycle from technology to application, making AI move from workshop style development and scenario customization to industrial development and scenario optimization, and relying on large-scale models to solve industry problems possible.
Meng Wanzhou believes that in this process, through the opening of computing power bases, AI platforms, and development tools, Huawei supports the "blooming of a hundred flowers" of large models in the era of intelligence, and strives to do a good job in the "black soil of a hundred flower garden".
"We support each organization to use their own data to train their own big models, allowing each industry to develop their own industry big models with their professional knowledge." Meng Wanzhou said that the development of artificial intelligence, computing power is the core driving force, and big models require large computing power. The size of computing power determines the speed of AI iteration and innovation, and also affects the speed of economic development. The scarcity and high cost of computing power have become the core factors restricting the development of AI.
"Huawei is committed to building a solid computing foundation in China and providing the world with a second choice. We will continue to enhance the integration ability of 'soft and hard core edge cloud', thicken the 'black soil', and meet the diverse AI computing needs of various industries. Meng Wanzhou stated that Huawei will fully leverage its comprehensive advantages in computing, storage, network, energy, and other fields, change the traditional server stacking mode, and focus on building AI clusters with innovative system architecture, achieving integrated design of computing power, transportation power, and storage power, breaking through computing power bottlenecks, and providing sustainable and surging computing power.".
