Strategic Vision, Computing Power, and Systemic Approach: Accelerating the Deep Integration of AI in Manufacturing

Sun Deqiang, Minister of Huawei Industry ICT Consulting Solution Department, discussed that AI is entering the core production systems of enterprises, and the industry is accelerating its upgrade to intelligence. He believes that enterprise intelligence should advance through two paths in parallel: conducting digital and intelligent transformation, and accelerating the entry into the intelligent era. The first is “horizontal systematic construction”, which progresses step by step on the basis of consolidating processes, IT, and data to steadily move towards comprehensive intelligence. The second is “vertical scenario-based breakthrough”, which is driven by scenarios, promotes construction through application, cultivates talents, and accumulates small victories into big ones. Both “systematic construction” and “scenario-based breakthrough” must follow “strategic guidance” and “architectural control” in order to flourish.

Zhang Xitao, Senior Industry Director of Huawei Computing Power Vanguard Team, stated that in the AI era, general-purpose artificial intelligence is accelerating its development, promoting AI from auxiliary tools to core business systems. Facing the trend of high-end and intelligent transformation of China’s manufacturing industry, Huawei proposed the ALL IN TELLIGENCE strategy, which supports “thousands of models” by building the Ascend computing power base, and focuses on creating intelligent assistants for the six core scenarios of manufacturing. He emphasized that AI is shifting from “efficiency improvement” to “value creation”, helping the manufacturing industry achieve intelligent leaps in key links such as R&D design and production and manufacturing.
