At the beginning of 2024, many mobile phone manufacturers have said that they will bet on AI in the direction of development. On February 18, Meizu, a domestic mobile phone brand, announced that it would make a strategic adjustment, stopping the development of new projects of traditional "smartphones" and fully investing in a new generation of AI devices.
2024 can be called the first year of AI mobile phones. According to the market**, in the next five years, the impact of AI on the mobile phone industry can be compared to the replacement of feature phones by smartphones in the past. From the perspective of the development stage of the industry, AI mobile phones will also become the third stage of the development of the mobile phone industry after feature phones and smart phones.
Shen Ziyu, chairman and CEO of Meizu Group, said that mobile phone products rely solely on hardware upgrades and parameter competition, which can no longer meet the diversified and comprehensive needs and experience of consumers, and the industry urgently needs to find a new direction for sustainable development.
With the explosion of the AI large model Chat GPT last year, the AI large model has gradually become a "new battlefield" for mobile phone manufacturers, and many mobile phone manufacturers have put large models into mobile phones. Xiaomi, vivo, and OPPO have successively implanted large model systems in their new products.
As the leader of the domestic mobile phone interaction system, the Meizu FlyMe team has demonstrated the strategic concept of all in AI to the majority of users.
At the Meizu special event held on the evening of February 29, as Meizu's first open AI terminal, the Meizu 21 Pro, the biggest highlight is that it is open to all AI large models, which will directly provide developers with system permissions, API documents allow developers to request data from users, and open up the AI computing power of the processor, so as to create a more comprehensive AI intelligent experience, known as the Raspberry Pi in the AI era.
Meizu also announced the details of its AI strategic plan, including building AI device products, reconstructing the Flyme system, and building an AI ecosystem. By reconstructing the product form of the hardware, it will bring users a more intelligent, convenient and innovative AI product experience, and the Flyme system will also reconstruct the system and applications from the bottom up, so that AI technology can be more deeply integrated into the operating system and bring users a more intuitive AI interaction experience.
In addition, Meizu will also focus on building an AI ecosystem, fully opening Meizu's AI device hardware to many top international large-scale model teams, including OpenAI, to jointly promote the innovation and development of AI technology. Meizu's active deployment in the AI terminal market will surely bring users a more intelligent, convenient, and innovative AI product experience.
