"Hi, my name is' Tongtong ', nice to meet you!" At the opening ceremony of the 2024 Zhongguancun Forum Annual Meeting, the world's first universal intelligent person, "Little Girl", developed by Beijing General Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, "Tongtong", made a cute appearance and was selected as one of the top ten major technological achievements of the 2024 Zhongguancun Forum Annual Meeting. "Not only can she understand your words, but she can also understand your intentions and even offer help when you are busy," Zhu Songchun, the director of Beijing General Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, told reporters. "Tongtong" is the first prototype of a embodied general artificial intelligence system in the world, based on an original cognitive architecture theoretical framework and a self-developed learning and reasoning framework, with a unique "mind". During human-computer interaction, "Tong Tong" will enter each room out of curiosity and see what new things are inside; They will also rely on their active visual ability to actively search for a cloth to clean up spilled milk on the ground... After being tested by the General Artificial Intelligence Rating Standards and Testing Platform (TongTest), "Tong Tong" currently performs similarly to human children aged 3 to 4. "The birth of 'Tongtong' is a breakthrough in China's core technology in the field of general artificial intelligence, from 0 to 1." Zhu Songchun told reporters that 'Tongtong' has achieved autonomous intelligence driven by value and causality. Its reasoning and decision-making processes are transparent and interpretable, ensuring human-machine trust and providing a solid guarantee for the safe and reliable interaction of intelligent agents. Currently, widely used artificial intelligence models are mostly based on massive amounts of data, utilizing a large amount of computing power and storage for data analysis. However, there is still a significant gap between them and intelligence that is comparable to human cognitive abilities. To move towards universal artificial intelligence, it requires breakthroughs in original and innovative technologies. Zhu Songchun stated that "Tongtong" uses no more than 10 A100 chips in daily learning and training, which means that "Tongtong" can learn and grow without relying on huge computing power and massive data. "The technological path of developing 'Tongtong' no longer relies on big data and computing power, but forms a closed loop with the development of artificial intelligence in China through the paradigm of 'small data and big tasks'. Zhu Songchun introduced that with continuous iteration,' Tongtong 'can serve as a universal base to support various vertical application scenarios, forming millions of' universal intelligent people 'and empowering thousands of industries.". At the same time, "Tong Tong" can also be combined with embodied intelligent robots, bringing revolutionary changes to fields such as intelligent manufacturing, smart cities, and healthcare.
