Zhou Hongyi's 2024 big model predictions have been verified eight times, saying that the emergence of Sora exceeded expectations

"I don't cut leeks when giving lectures. The purpose is to be free, share, popularize science, and communicate. In the AI ​​era, technology is developing rapidly, and the popularization of AI knowledge is particularly important." On February 29, Zhou Hongyi, founder of 360 Company, gave a free speech The class officially started, and the first lecture of the AI ​​series "Foreseeing AGI" was broadcast live on multiple platforms across the entire network, with tens of millions of netizens watching. In the free class, Zhou Hongyi systematically shared his insights into the new development trends of AI, suggestions for enterprises to embrace AI, and demonstrated on-site two national-level Internet products, 360AI Search and 360AI Browser, reshaped by large models. Due to the popular user experience, instant adoption The traffic surged 44 times, and servers were temporarily added to meet the needs of users across the entire network.

Zhou Hongyi said that the exponential leap of AI has given people the feeling that "every day is like a year". The top ten development trends of AI in 2024 that he predicted at the end of last year have already been Eight things were verified, but Sora's appearance was still unexpected. When talking about the innovative nature of Sora, he believes that the videos generated by Sora are not good-looking, but realistic. Behind the scenes, Sora understands the common sense of the world through observation. Using this as an argument, Zhou Hongyi and the "Sora pixel theorists" started a distanced debate, proving that Sora has truly understood the world. He summarized multi-modal development into five levels, namely recognition of objects, logical reasoning ability, logical rationality, evaluation and identification ability, and possession of world knowledge, and said that Sora already has the fifth level of capabilities.

"GPT solves the problem of communication between machines and people, and Sora solves the problem of interaction between machines and the world." Zhou Hongyi believes that Sora complements the artificial intelligence In terms of the shortcomings in the development of AGI, GPT is like the human left brain, while Sora is the right brain. Its invention has made AGI a big step forward. He quoted a line from Stephen Chow's movie, saying "Sora looks like a hair dryer, but is actually a razor", reminding people not to ignore the "big thing" behind Sora. Its emergence may shorten the arrival of AGI to two or three years. . After that, inspired by Sora, he proposed the "Five Stages of AI Development" theory for the first time, systematically dividing the AI ​​development stages into artificial intelligence, entry-level artificial intelligence, general artificial intelligence, strong artificial intelligence, and super artificial intelligence. He said that the importance of human development of AGI is first to promote breakthroughs in basic science, and secondly to solve the problem of energy freedom in reverse.

As a technology entrepreneur, Zhou Hongyi believes that China needs to embark on a unique development path of large models, starting from three aspects: super general large models, enterprise-level large models, and scenario implementation, to comprehensively promote China Large model industrial development. For entrepreneurs in the AI ​​field, he put forward the suggestion of "three don'ts and two shoulds", believing that entrepreneurs should enter the enterprise-level market and carry out in-depth transformation of applications. Facing the advent of the AI ​​era, Zhou Hongyi proposed the "Three Major AI Mindsets", including establishing belief in AI, acting All in AI, and measuring it by the amount of "AI". Using this as a guide, 360 will embrace AI across all business lines. Implement three major mental methods in the Internet, security, digitalization, smart life and other business fields.

Zhou Hongyi defined 2024 as the first year of the application of large model scenarios. He cited Microsoft and Apple as examples and believed that the first step for All in AI must be to use large models to restructure traditional products. Shape it again. At the free class, Zhou Hongyi used 360 as an example to describe the case of large-scale model-driven product innovation. He demonstrated two national-level products reshaped by AI, 360AI Search and 360AI Browser. Users can find answers directly through dialogue through the new AI search. AI The browser has been upgraded into an efficient office and learning tool, achieving innovation in functionality and user experience.
