it is reported that Baidu's self driving travel service platform "radish express" has entered 10 cities, and the total order volume has exceeded 1million

it is worth noting that Baidu released the autonomous vehicle RT6 without steering wheel. Based on the breakthrough of self driving technology, the cost of unmanned vehicles has been reduced to 1/10 of the industry, which is similar to the price of ordinary new energy vehicles on the market. According to the plan, Baidu will use RT6 on the turnip express platform next year and can deploy tens of thousands of vehicles nationwide in the future

relevant data show that at present, 83% of people in China accept driverless driving. A guy in Beijing plays driverless cars more than 600 times a year, which has become the largest number of people in the world

the future urban intelligent transportation should not only have "smart cars", but also "smart roads". Vehicle road coordination can effectively solve important problems such as safety, congestion and carbon emissions. According to the latest data disclosed at the conference, Baidu's intelligent transportation scheme has been practiced and verified in more than 50 cities across the country, among which Baidu has achieved the world's leading position in AI information control technology

Robin Lee believes that "intelligent transportation based on vehicle road coordination can increase traffic efficiency by 15%-30%, and promote the absolute growth of GDP by 2.4%-4.8% per year; with the in-depth practice of intelligent transportation, China's first tier cities will no longer need 'purchase restriction' and 'traffic restriction' within four years. Intelligent transportation system is expected to reduce traffic safety accidents by 90%

it is worth noting that on December 27 last year, Robin Lee said in his opening speech that China's first tier cities will no longer have restrictions on purchase and travel within five years

at the same time, baidu used AI to restore the fragments of Fuchun Mountain Residence, one of China's top ten handed down famous paintings, at the scene of the conference. The core technical capability behind it is aigc (AI generated content)

"aigc is a new content production method after PGC and UGC. It will not only improve the efficiency of content production, but also create content with unique value and independent perspective." Robin Lee shared his latest thoughts on this frontier technology field

Robin Lee judged that aigc will go through three development stages: the first stage is the "assistant stage", which is used to assist human beings in content production; The second stage is the "cooperation stage", in which aigc appears in the form of virtual human with virtual reality coexisting, forming a situation of man-machine symbiosis; The third stage is the "original stage", in which aigc will complete content creation independently. "In the next ten years, aigc will subvert the existing content production mode. It can generate AI original content at a cost of one tenth and a production speed of hundreds of times." Robin Lee said, "everyone and every enterprise should have their own brush. Technology is Baidu's brush. Technology is always Baidu's weapon to deal with challenges and seize opportunities."

he introduced that Baidu has been committed to pressure and marathon R & D investment for many years, investing more than 20% of its revenue in R & D every year, and driving long-term development with technological innovation

Robin Lee finally said, "we are in the big cycle of technological innovation, with new energy, space exploration, biomedicine, intelligent manufacturing and other new technologies emerging one after another. China's scientific and technological development will certainly come to the forefront of the world. This road needs a lot of" stones "to pave. Baidu is willing to become one of the "paving stones" and contribute to basic research, basic technology and bottom innovation. " (one orange)
