"Li Yanhong talks about autonomous driving: After L2, the first commercial will be L4 instead of L3"

"Li Yanhong: From no one to no one can be able to reach the word" persistence ""

On September 1st, the 2022 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) was held in Shanghai. This year's theme of the conference was "Zhilian World Yuansheng has no boundaries". Li Yanhong, the founder, chairman and chief executive officer of Baidu, was invited to attend and published a keynote speech entitled "Two -way Going" entitled "Artificial Intelligence and the Real Economy" By -Delica ". Li Yanhong believes that in the past year, no matter at the technical level or at the commercial application level, artificial intelligence has made tremendous progress, and some even change the direction. Speaking of autonomous driving, Li Yanhong emphasized that "L2 is the first to enter commercial use, not L3, not L3." In addition, he said that from "no one is optimistic" to "unattended", the decisive victory is often the word "persistence", and scientific and technological innovation is especially true.

After l2, the first to enter the commercial use is likely to be L4, not L3

This year, the milestone in the field of autonomous driving is constantly refreshed. Various related policies and management regulations have sprung up, providing an internationally leading policy environment for commercialization and large -scale expansion. As of July, the cumulative order volume of Baidu Radish fast driving services exceeded 1 million orders, and the operating scope spread to more than 10 cities including Beijing and Shanghai. Chongqing and Wuhan have opened unmanned commercial operations.

Li Yanhong judged that L2 was probably the first to enter commercial use, not L3. Because the liability of L2 and L4 is clearly defined. L2 is responsible for the driver, and the L4 operator must be responsible for the accident. L3 is not the same. Drivers need to take over when they need it, which makes it difficult for the accident responsibility to define. Therefore, he believes that the popularity of L3 takes longer.

In addition, technological progress has enhanced the capacity of autonomous driving, and the scale effect gradually appears. "When we want to obtain autonomous driving operating qualifications in a certain area in a city, it is generally possible to have about 20 days of preparation time, because the technology of technology is already very good. The area of ​​the area is excessive. "Li Yanhong said.

AIGC creates unique value and independent perspective content

At the conference site, Baidu AI Digital Man Higa used AI painting assistant Wen Xin Yige, and automatically created "Wanjia's Light Dream Lujiazui", "Unique ink and Ink Church", "Bund cruise ship", " "Impression" "contains Van Gogh, Monet and other styles of pictures. This ability belongs to the AIGC (AI Generated Content, an artificial intelligence independently generated content), and behind it is the pre -training large model technology.

Li Yanhong said that the AI ​​painting that everyone sees is a representative of technical progress in the past year. AI has moved from understanding language, understanding, understanding pictures and videos, and going to generating content. AIGC will subvert the existing content production model, which can achieve one -tenth cost, and create content with unique value and independent perspective at a cost of one -tenth of the cost.

The two -way artificial intelligence and the real economy go to promote huge progress in society

With the active results of artificial intelligence development, the production methods of thousands of industries are reinstated and production efficiency is continuously improved. Intelligent transportation road network construction, intelligent and water conservancy infrastructure, and industrial enterprises to achieve cost reduction and efficiency through the clouds are the results of the deep integration of artificial intelligence and the real economy. Li Yanhong believes that the commercial application of AI in these fields needs to conduct end -to -end technical tuning for each industry.

According to the data, Baidu has been farming in the field of artificial intelligence for ten years. From the bottom -level AI chip Kunlun, to the deep learning platform of flying paddle, to pre -training large models, etc., there are more than 100 billion yuan in research and development. Li Yanhong emphasized that such a strong and marathon investment made Baidu a leading self -developed technology at all levels of artificial intelligence. A new thing, from "no one is optimistic" to "unattended", is often the word "persistence", and this is especially true of scientific and technological innovation.

At the end of the speech, Li Yanhong made an appeal again. He said that technology innovation cannot be separated from institutional innovation. At present, the popularity of unmanned vehicles still faces the problem of "four different difficulties", that is, unmanned vehicles cannot enter the market, cannot get on the card, cannot remove safety officers, cannot operate charges, and are difficult to determine the liability of accidents. my country's autonomous driving technology is at the forefront of the world, but the opportunity is also fleeting. It is necessary to continue to promote institutional innovation and further break through the policy bottleneck. Only in this way can we realize the two -way travel of artificial intelligence and the real economy, and to promote great progress in society.
