1/4 of the 1 billion parameter large model is in Guangdong, the trend of intelligent digital reading industrial robots

"Confidence" Column

In 2023, work hard to achieve economic success! Southern Metropolis Daily and Nandu Big Data Research Institute launched the "Confidence" column, using data to record Guangdong's progress towards modernization, using data to describe the dynamic road of thousands of horses galloping to create a better world, and using data to write about the high-spiritedness of every one of you and me. the path of faith.

The journey of a thousand miles depends on you and me; if you know it in your heart, you can expect it in Guangdong.

The "China Artificial Intelligence Large Model Map Research Report" released by the China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information at the Zhongguancun Forum Parallel Forum mentioned that currently 79 large models with a scale of more than 1 billion parameters have been released nationwide, including 20 in Guangdong. , accounting for 25.3% of the country’s total. In other words, 1/4 of the large models with more than 1 billion parameters are in Guangdong.

Large model research and development is mainly concentrated in Beijing and Guangdong

At this forum, Zhao Zhiyun, director of the China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information, introduced that various technical routes for large models in China are making breakthroughs in parallel, especially in natural language understanding, machine vision, multi-modality, etc., there are many breakthroughs. A large and influential model in the industry. The geographical and domain distribution of large models in China is relatively concentrated. In terms of geographical distribution, 14 provinces are carrying out large-scale model research and development, mainly concentrated in Beijing and Guangdong. Beijing, Guangdong, Zhejiang, and Shanghai are also the regions with the highest number of artificial intelligence server purchases in the past three years.

Since this year, the application of large AI models has blossomed everywhere, becoming the "explosion year" of artificial intelligence. The "Guangdong Province New Generation Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Development Action Plan (2022-2025)" requires new breakthroughs in cutting-edge and basic theories such as big data intelligence, general foundation and large models, swarm intelligence, knowledge understanding and reasoning, and explainable artificial intelligence. By 2025, a number of internationally competitive artificial intelligence innovative industrial clusters will be formed, with the scale of core industries exceeding 150 billion yuan and driving the scale of related industries to exceed one trillion yuan. The "Shenzhen City's Action Plan to Accelerate the High-quality Development of High-level Applications of Artificial Intelligence (2023-2024)" also mentioned that it is necessary to focus on general large models, intelligent computing chips, intelligent sensors, intelligent robots, intelligent connected cars and other fields. Implement a major special support plan for artificial intelligence technology, focusing on supporting the creation of open source universal large models based on domestic and foreign chips and algorithms, supporting key enterprises to continue to develop and iterate commercial universal large models, and carry out the development and application of universal embodied intelligent robots.

Guangdong’s AI industry ranks first in the country

Narada Big Data Research Institute found that the scale and number of enterprises in Guangdong’s core artificial intelligence industry are among the “first echelon” in the country. According to the "Guangdong Province New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan" issued by the provincial government in 2018, the scale of Guangdong's core artificial intelligence industry in 2017 was approximately 26 billion yuan, accounting for approximately 1/3 of the country, driving the scale of related industries such as robots and intelligent equipment to exceed 200 billion yuan. Yuan, the scale of artificial intelligence core industries and related industries ranks among the top in the country. By 2021, the scale of the province's core artificial intelligence industry will exceed 130 billion yuan.

The "Ten Years of Progress in China's Artificial Intelligence Industry" report released by CCID Consulting also mentioned that as of 2021, there are 4,975 artificial intelligence companies in China, accounting for 24.9% of the global share. From the perspective of regional distribution, Beijing, Guangdong, and Shanghai bring together 61.1% of the country's artificial intelligence companies, of which Guangdong has 1,014 artificial intelligence companies, accounting for 20.4% of the country's total. On May 22 this year, it was revealed at the artificial intelligence sub-forum of the 2023 Greater Bay Area Science Forum that there will be more than 1,500 artificial intelligence companies in Guangdong in 2022, and the scale of the core artificial intelligence industry will exceed 150 billion yuan, ranking first in the country.

Guangdong industrial robot output and proportion from 2017 to 2022.

Large models open new doors for industrial robots

With the explosion and maturity of AI technology, robots are becoming more and more intelligent, and Guangdong is also a major province in robot production and application in the country. Data show that Guangdong's industrial robot output has increased from 20,700 units in 2017 to 165,700 units in 2022, accounting for 15.8% of the national output in 2022. First. Forty percent of the country's industrial robots are made in Guangdong.

The emergence of large models has further improved the "IQ" of robots. Experts admit that large models will lead the future of the robot automation industry. On May 28, 2023, the country’s first library AI robot based on a large language model officially debuted in Yuexiu Library. The combination of large models and robots is a perfect combination of "intelligence" and "physical strength". It will have a major impact on economic and social development and changes in production and lifestyle, and it will open a new door for industrial robots.

"The intelligent robot and intelligent equipment industry is ushering in explosive growth." The "New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan of Guangdong Province" requires accelerating the demonstration application of artificial intelligence in multiple fields and scenarios, and promoting the application of artificial intelligence, Internet, Internet of Things and other technologies in In-depth application in the field of robots improves the intelligence level of robot products. Promote the intelligent upgrading of industrial robots, take machine vision and independent decision-making as breakthrough directions, and focus on the development of intelligent industrial robots in fields such as handling, inspection, assembly, spraying, grinding, welding, and palletizing. The "Guangdong Province New Generation Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Development Action Plan (2022-2025)" also requires "deep integration and application of artificial intelligence and industry", with the goal of empowering manufacturing with artificial intelligence, and accelerating the promotion of machine vision, intelligent robots, and intelligent production scheduling. , process intelligent optimization and other key directions. Guangdong is accelerating to become a new strategic highland for the development of an internationally advanced new generation artificial intelligence industry.
