Ant Cloud Technology Group Co., Ltd. recently held a grand unveiling ceremony of the AI Digital Human Lab in Hangzhou. This not only marks Ant Cloud Technology Group's strong investment in the research and development of large models and their applications, but also further reflects Ant Cloud Technology Group's in-depth exploration and innovation in this cutting-edge technology field. Leaders attending the unveiling ceremony included Feng Qiaoyu, Chairman of Ant Cloud Technology Group, Jiang Jun, General Manager, Xie Yun, Chief Technology Officer, and Dr. Qian Xiaoyi, Chief AI Scientist.
As early as 2020, Jiang Jun knew Qian Xiaoyi when he was the general manager of Ali's **AI industry line, and the two sides reached a consensus on AI to further break through to the large model, and the expert model such as symbolism can become a powerful supplement to the large model, and the stronger the large model, the stronger the combination of the two.
In order to further promote the development and application of artificial intelligence technology, Jiang Jun actively promoted the implementation of the laboratory. The laboratory will focus on the research of cutting-edge technologies of digital humans and the development of algorithms and models with independent intellectual property rights. At the same time, the laboratory will also cooperate with enterprises and institutions in various industries to explore the application scenarios of artificial intelligence technology in different fields and promote industrial upgrading and transformation.
The choice of the laboratory to land in Hangzhou is also based on the geographical advantages of Hangzhou and the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta Science and Technology Corridor, which will bring more technical advantages and talent resources to Ant Cloud Technology Group. Ant Cloud Technology Group will also rely on the R&D strength of the laboratory to strengthen cooperation with enterprises in various industries, expand the application fields of large models, and enhance the core competitiveness and market share of enterprises. At the same time, the laboratory will also inject new vitality into the artificial intelligence industry in Xi'an High-tech Zone and promote the development and industrial upgrading of the regional economy.
Dr. Qian Xiaoyi, chief AI scientist of Ant Cloud Technology Group's Digital Human Laboratory, introduced at the meeting: "Beiming Xingyan has been focusing on the field of artificial intelligence for more than 8 years, and is a veteran artificial intelligence start-up The scene will show obvious advantages;Beiming will contribute the phased research results to the AI Digital Human Laboratory to provide long-term support for the start and development of the laboratory. I am also honored to be the chief scientist of the laboratory, to explore the wonderful journey of artificial intelligence with all members, and to contribute to the development of Chinese artificial intelligence. ”
Xie Yun, CTO of Ant Cloud Technology Group, added in detail the research direction and goals of the AI Digital Human Lab. He said that the lab will closely follow the latest advances in basic large models, including LLM and LVM, and is committed to integrating a new generation of generative AI, digital avatars and other human-computer interaction technologies driven by large models, and continuously launching more intelligent and autonomous digital humans, providing friendly, convenient and more friendly products and services for all walks of life.
At the same time, Xie Yun also revealed that the AI Digital Human Lab will also cooperate with a number of universities and enterprises to jointly explore the application scenarios of artificial intelligence technology in different fields and contribute to the development and application of artificial intelligence technology.
Jiang Jun, general manager, finally said: "At present, the AI digital human laboratory will make our AIGC solution with the core of replica human technology, and we have made future plans, and we will carry out strategic cooperation with ten leading companies in the industry within a month, and quickly implant the digital human technology with our industry model to quickly implant it into various industries such as education, public security, cultural tourism, civil affairs, and large enterprises to start in-depth research and development." ”
The vigorous investment in the AI Digital Human Lab is Ant Cloud Technology Group's commitment to the technological innovation and development ecology of large models and their applications, and also marks Ant Cloud Technology Group's determination to innovate and develop in this field.
