AI and Robotics in Industry: Focus on Key Enterprises

At the third China International Supply Chain Promotion Expo held today, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang stated that artificial intelligence has become the core infrastructure driving industrial transformation, profoundly changing the entire process of industrial supply chains.

According to Huang, the key force behind industrial transformation will be the next generation of AI robotic systems. These systems can understand the physical world, possess reasoning capabilities, and autonomously execute tasks.

AI is becoming a fundamental infrastructure, much like electricity and the internet, revolutionizing supply chains and changing the way we design, manufacture, and transport everything.

He predicts that within the next decade, factories will undergo a fundamental transformation: teams of robots commanded by software and AI will work alongside humans to manufacture intelligent products, fundamentally revolutionizing existing industrial production models.

Huang introduced that China has already launched hundreds of digital twin simulation research projects specifically aimed at optimizing factory design and construction.

Many industrial robots are trained using NVIDIA’s Omniverse platform. This virtual world platform provides a safe and reliable environment for robot training, becoming an important bridge connecting digital technology and industrial production.

In the construction of the AI industrial ecosystem, China is also showing strong momentum.

Huang revealed that over 1.5 million Chinese developers are currently engaged in industrial AI innovation based on the NVIDIA platform, with many leading industrial AI models being developed and open-sourced, continuously enhancing China’s influence in the field of industrial AI.

In practical applications, AI is effectively transforming into industrial productivity.

Huang cited examples such as Xiaomi leveraging AI technology to enhance the R&D efficiency and product performance of autonomous vehicles and smartphones; Baidu’s intelligent search providing strong support for industrial information retrieval and data analysis.

Huang emphasized that artificial intelligence is driving a comprehensive upgrade of industrial production methods. In the future, AI will become the core of every link in the industrial field, opening new industrial revolutions and growth opportunities for China’s excellent industrial supply chain ecosystem.
