Exploring 5G AR， To focus on the digital economy and "Internet plus", the Wuzhen Summit of the World Internet Conference every year is the vane of the Internet development trend. This year, the summit focuses on artificial intelligence.
In the past few years, few things have received as much development momentum and social attention as artificial intelligence. "In the view of Hong Yaozhuang, CEO of the Global Mobile Communications System Association, artificial intelligence is evolving into a powerful force globally, bringing unprecedented changes to businesses and society.
Inside and outside the Wuzhen Summit venue, unmanned vehicles, directional robots, and intelligent cleaning robots have become "standard equipment".

Artificial intelligence is embedded into the production and life of many people.
Participants believed that the Internet should play an important role in driving the modernization drive, actively adapt to the tide of the information revolution, vigorously promote the technological innovation and development of artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, blockchain and other technologies, and accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements into real productivity.
Artificial intelligence adheres to the principle of intelligence towards reality and intelligence towards goodness, which is the core essence of technology serving social progress, "said Lei Jun, founder, chairman, and CEO of Xiaomi Group." When Xiaomi developed automotive die-casting materials, it used artificial intelligence related technologies to select two optimal formulas from more than 10 million formulas and conduct verification experiments, greatly improving research and development efficiency
In the selection of the Leading Science and Technology Award of the 2024 World Internet Conference, the "supercomputing Internet platform" project was successfully evaluated by virtue of industrial innovation and technological progressiveness. As a representative of the project team, Cao Zhennan, Deputy Director of the National High Performance Computer Engineering Technology Research Center, expressed his expectation for the combination of artificial intelligence and supercomputing applications to better serve enterprises and individuals in different fields and industries.
The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence presents both development opportunities and unpredictable risks and challenges. Promoting intelligence towards goodness requires governance wisdom.
At this year's Wuzhen Summit, forums such as Artificial Intelligence Technology Innovation and Governance, Artificial Intelligence Empowering the Development of New Quality Productivity, and Responsible Development and Application of Artificial Intelligence focused on exploring the development and governance of artificial intelligence.
The attendees believed that promoting the development of artificial intelligence with the goal of enhancing the common well-being of humanity, ensuring social security and respecting human rights as prerequisites, is in line with the common values of all mankind, and promotes people-oriented and good deeds.
Lin Shangli, president of Renmin University of China, said that we should build a policy, regulation and institutional system for AI security governance, continue to consolidate the foundation of network rule of law, standardize the value orientation of AI at the legal, ethical and humanitarian levels, and ensure that AI is safe, reliable and controllable.

In addition to "good governance", the power of "good technology" should also be applied. The problems brought by new technologies need to be solved with updated technologies and concepts.
Microsoft's Senior Vice President Zhang Qi stated that only by ensuring ethics and transparency can artificial intelligence truly benefit society and achieve sustainable development. Enterprises should actively assume social responsibility and always adhere to core principles such as fairness, reliability, safety, inclusiveness, transparency, and accountability.
Develop responsible artificial intelligence, avoid the misuse of artificial intelligence technology, and ensure that artificial intelligence always develops in a direction conducive to the progress of human civilization. This is the resounding voice of this year's Wuzhen Summit, and also a key global issue for the present and future.
Artificial intelligence is changing people's lives. Only by adhering to the principle of putting people first, actively promoting global dialogue and cooperation, fully understanding the needs and perspectives of all parties around the world, can we effectively utilize the enormous potential of artificial intelligence, "said Li Junhua, Deputy Secretary General of the United Nations.
