Hon Hai Research Institute Celebrates 50 Year at 2024 AI NExT Forum
July 19, 2024 | FoxconnEstimated reading time: 4 minutes
Hon Hai Research Institute will celebrate the 50th anniversary of Hon Hai Corporation and will hold the "AI NExT Forum " at the National Taiwan University Conference Center on July 23. This year's forum, with theme of "50 Years-New Era of Wisdom: Generative AI and Future Innovation," invites many domestic and foreign heavyweight experts and scholars, including Li Kaifu, CEO of Zero One Thing and Chairman of Sinovation Ventures, and Cai Jianfei, professor of the School of Information at Monash University in Australia. Guests will come together to discuss the breakthroughs of generative AI technology in image and language processing and learn how these forward-looking technologies will change future life and work patterns. In addition, Hon Hai Research Institute and department heads responsible for smart manufacturing, smart driving, smart city and other platforms will take the stage to share Hon Hai's latest research results and innovative applications on these three platforms.
Heavyweight AI experts attended the meeting to reveal the latest trends in generative AI and the challenges of large-scale model training
Kai-fu Lee, an advisory member of Hon Hai Research Institute, CEO of Zero One World and Chairman of Sinovation Ventures, will deliver a keynote speech on "Generative AI: The Most Disruptive Technological Revolution in History " at this year's forum. As a world-renowned AI expert and selected as one of TIME magazine's 25 global AI leaders in 2023, Kai-fu Lee has worked for Apple, Microsoft, and Google. He founded Sinovation Ventures in 2009 and the large-scale model unicorn company, Zero One Wish, in 2023 .
Artificial intelligence has made major breakthroughs in technology in recent years, including large-scale generative artificial intelligence models such as ChatGPT for text generation and Sora for video generation. It not only accelerates the application of artificial intelligence in enterprises and organizations, but also has a positive impact on society. The economic impact is huge. However, large generative models usually require trillions of tokens and hundreds of billions of parameters for training, resulting in tremendous computing resources and energy consumption. As the scale of large-scale generative artificial intelligence models continues to expand, how to make the training process more efficient and energy-saving, and how to make it instantly applicable in various fields such as offices, smart factories, finance, and medical care, and the efficiency of training and inference becomes more important.
Therefore, this year’s forum specially invited Cai Jianfei, a professor at the School of Information at Monash University in Australia, who is among the top 0.05% scholars in the world in ScholarGPS and is also an IEEE Fellow, to deliver a keynote speech on " Improving Efficiency of Large Generative AI Models" and share how his team is more efficient in training large-scale generative AI models and reduce energy consumption. We will also share the challenges encountered in research and future research directions.
Hon Hai Research Institute will work with the group’s three major platforms to publish the latest research results and innovative applications
How to use generative AI to accelerate the application of smart electric vehicles, smart manufacturing and smart cities is the focus of the industry. This year’s forum will also reveal the latest research results of Hon Hai Research Institute and the group’s three major platforms:
- Hon Hai Research Institute: Zhan Nianyi and Liao Yibin, two researchers from the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute of Hon Hai Research Institute, will share how to comprehensively improve the performance of self-driving AI algorithms by enhancing the robustness of the perception module and conducting closed-loop simulation testing of the planning module. Safety; and introduce how large model technology can improve the agent 's active perception and decision support, and enhance the environmental perception capabilities of self-driving cars or robots.
- Smart electric vehicle platform: Dr. Yang Changhua, Director of Hon Hai’s Smart Driving Engineering Department, will share how Hon Hai uses vision and AI technology to promote smart electric vehicle technology, including advanced visual sensors to detect the environment and the role of AI in path planning and the application of NVIDIA AI computing power in Level 2+ highway navigation driving.
- Smart manufacturing platform: Jiang Qianhong, a doctor of information engineering from Hon Hai Central Intelligent Manufacturing Office / Intelligent Manufacturing Platform Empowerment Division and National Central University, will introduce how to use MFG AIandGEN AI advanced technologies to integrate into future smart manufacturing to create a better, smarter, more flexible smart manufacturing systems.
- Smart City Platform: Guo Jinbin, Director of Hon Hai Smart City Platform, will demonstrate how to use Hon Hai’s CityGPTgenerativeAI to seamlessly create a new generation of smart cities and reshape the urban living experience.
Date: 2024/07/23 ( Tuesday ) 09:30-17:00 ( Registration starts at 09:00 )
Venue: International Conference Hall B1, National Taiwan University Convention Center (No. 85 , Section 4, Roosevelt Road, Daan District, Taipei City )
In order to allow more colleagues from industry and academia to participate in this AI event, this year’s forum will adopt a hybrid physical and online model. Registration is now open. On-site seats are limited. After the forum, online and offline lottery draws will be held.
