LAHORE ( HAFEEZ REPORT )

Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei Consumer Business Group delivered a keynote speech at the third World Internet Conference held in Wuzhen, China. The conference theme was ‘Innovation-driven Internet Development for the Benefit of All – Building a Community of Common Future in Cyberspace’ and his remarks addressed Huawei’s plans for developing Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The keynote speech titled “Artificial Intelligence, The Future Is Now”highlighted Huawei’s endeavor into and views on AI as well as the company’s investment in four key areas to drive technology breakthroughs. These include devices, connectivity, cloud computing and chipsets. These four areas are expected to power a Superphone which in Huawei’s vision is the fundamental carrier for AI.

“A Superphone will introduce new information-management architecture.Currently, users initiate information flow from the physical world. The information enters the smartphone and from there it goes to the digital spheres. In the future, the smartphone will be an indispensable part, a double of the user. This will result in two new streams of information from the superphone: one to the reality, the other to the user.

The Superphone will be special because it will proactively interact with the physical world. The smartphone is no longer a passive device, meant only for communication between the phone and the user.  Instead, with this new information-management architecture, the Superphone will adapt to address the challenges of information explosion.” – Richard Yu, CEO Huawei Consumer Business Group
