Chapter 209 More than just lowering the technical threshold
Before Yunhan Technology emerged, domestic companies' artificial intelligence technology and Bald Eagle's companies led the world, which is an indisputable fact.
This is true whether it is from the official strategy or the quantity and quality of artificial intelligence companies.
Not only are there a few top giants, but there are many other strong companies, but also many new players with great strength.
Qiandu Company, known as the "AI Whampoa Military Academy" in China, has an Apollo open platform that aims to help partners in the automotive industry and autonomous driving field to quickly build a set of their own autonomous driving platform in combination with vehicles and hardware systems.
In this open platform, autonomous vehicles can be developed, tested and deployed faster. The more participants, the more driving data it accumulates.
It is rumored that the L4 autonomous driving bus will be officially launched in a certain district in Shancheng soon, and the development pace is extremely fast.
Qiandu, the company is not as good as it is, but it still has technical strength. It is proof that it can take the lead in autonomous driving.

Huawei's Atlas artificial intelligence computing platform is based on Kunpeng motherboard + Ascend series AI chip dual engines, a fully launched computing strategy, an open source server operating system, an OLTP stand-alone version database, an open Kunpeng motherboard, and a full-scene AI computing framework.
Through hardware openness and software open source, partners can jointly explore the trillion-level computing industry blue ocean.
The scenarios that have been applied at present include network agent NAIE, transportation agent TrafficGo, automotive agent iVehicle, park agent, smart finance and smart cities.
In fact, such as Sanlian Hongpu's intelligent manufacturing, Shenzhen Stock Exchange's digital platform + AI future airport, Yunlu Technology's security + AI upgrade, Tianjin's AI+ smart city construction Binhai New Area, etc.
Jingxi's NeuHub artificial intelligence open platform relies on the capabilities and resources of Jingxi Group to jointly build an intelligent supply chain to promote the entire ecological cost reduction and efficiency improvement in industries such as manufacturing, logistics and retail.

These giant companies not only develop their own technologies and release open artificial intelligence platforms, but also form the same front with other artificial intelligence technology companies through investment and other means.
Qiandu has the most investments, with more than 48 companies and branches, followed by Xunten, with more than 37 companies and more than 31 companies in Ali Group.
And these are just at the technical research and development level. At the application level, these giant companies invest more, covering retail, finance, entertainment, life services and other fields, and penetrate into all aspects of our lives.
In addition to the giant companies mentioned above, in addition to the artificial intelligence open platform built by relying on the advantages and resources of the group company itself, there are also the four little dragons in the next tier.
SenseTime, which has the highest valuation, has the best construction and control of the underlying platform. The technical platforms of other companies are built on existing underlying systems, while SenseTime has created its own underlying algorithm platform, self-built supercomputing platform, etc.
The application of SenseTime mainly focuses on finance, security monitoring, mobile phone mobile Internet, autonomous driving, chips, robots and other fields.
This may be quite general, and through its main customers, you can understand it more clearly. JD Wallet, Rong360, Lakala, investment promotion is very good, Huishang is very good, Face u, Miaopai, YY, Toutiao, Meitu, Huajiao Live, etc.
Its face recognition unlocking, portrait background blur, face clustering in smart photo albums and other technologies are used in the products of mobile phone manufacturers such as OPPO, VIVO, Xiaomi, Meizu, and OnePlus.
Through these customers, SenseTime's technical strength can be seen.
In addition to the other three companies, Megvii Technology, the first to become famous, the official representative team Yuncong Technology, and Yitu Technology, which focuses on medical imaging, have become the four most giant unicorn companies.

In the artificial intelligence track, there are not a top giant, and there are more than 10 top AI players with a valuation of more than US$1 billion in China. All kinds of experts are ready to go, and it can be said that they are truly blooming.
With so many artificial intelligence technology companies, the technical strengths of each company are also uneven.
In addition, in reality, artificial intelligence is still in the exploration stage, which is far less clear than in publicity and slogans. Everyone is exploring slowly on this wide track and moving forward slowly.
The artificial intelligence that is truly closest to the concept is currently Yunhan Technology, which suddenly breaks into the track.
Large groups like Ali can analyze the technical gap between the two parties through public information such as videos, and these small and medium-sized artificial intelligence development companies are actually similar.
But the more you analyze, the more anxious these companies are. I won’t explain the specific details in detail. In short, everyone is playing with propeller wooden planes, and suddenly a guy who is driving a jet plane comes.
A few days ago, news that Yunhan Technology intends to cooperate with the artificial intelligence platform of Ali Group has made them even more uneasy.
Originally, our skills were not much different, and some companies were even slightly ahead of several giant companies, so everyone still had to play with them.
If the cooperation is really achieved, Ali's artificial intelligence platform can be said to take off directly, and with Ali's own advantages and resources, the living space for these small and medium-sized companies will be reduced.
Therefore, these small and medium-sized companies and several other giants were staring at Yunhan Technology and Ali's every move, waiting for the most accurate news.
...
Yunhan Technology's official website has never been so lively. In the past, only some domestic special effects companies download open source special effects software, or some developers upload code and learn code.
But since Ge Yuncong posted the details of artificial intelligence cooperation to the homepage of the official website, some media contacted by Zhou Jing have successively issued press releases, and many onlookers have come.
If the people who came to the press release were just here to hunt for curiosity, then artificial intelligence companies of all sizes are really studying them carefully one by one.
After reading Yunhan Technology's cooperation details, some companies were ecstatic, while some companies were happy and sad.
The ecstatic part is naturally a company with weak technical strength and low market share in the past.
Yunhan Technology’s cooperation rules can allow them to level the technological gap with other companies, at least from the perspective of technology, they stand on the same starting line.
The part that has both joy and sorrow is naturally a giant company and several top players with great strength.
What is happy is that Ali Group has not obtained the exclusive cooperation rights, and what is worried is that Yunhan Technology has not set any cooperation threshold. Theoretically, as long as you have money and the idea of developing artificial intelligence, you can negotiate cooperation.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have technology. As long as you are willing to pay a technical service fee and then recruit a relatively reliable programming team, Yunhan Technology provides technical support and can tailor an artificial intelligence platform according to needs.
...
This is not just a lowering of the threshold, it is simply a destruction of the artificial intelligence market!
In the past, I had resources and funds, but I didn’t have the technical strength, so I couldn’t even play.
Now that Yunhan Technology is doing this, can it not be disguised to encourage money to do whatever you want?
It can be expected that in addition to many original players, more new players will also pour in on the artificial intelligence track.
Even some traditional industries or non-technical giant companies may join this track.
They need resources, funds, and channels. In the past, the technical threshold was only high, but now there is no such threshold. What reason is there not to build their own platform?
It is better to have your own parents than to have your own parents. As long as you are not a fool, you should understand this truth.
I thought the emergence of Yunhan Technology was just a blowing wind. Who would have thought that there was a blowing wind? It was like a typhoon.
After this storm, no one can tell who can survive on this track.
