AI restoration of 600-year-old paintings, Li's definition of AIGC will disrupt the content industry

"Dwelling in The Mountains of Fuchun" is the work of Huang Gongwang, the master of painting in the Yuan Dynasty. This painting depicts the varied landscape scenery of the Fuchun River with elegant brush and ink, which also implies the author's love for landscape and life attitude of pursuing nature. It is praised as one of the "Top ten Famous Paintings handed down in China". In the early Qing Dynasty, the painting was burned and divided into two sections, one long and one short. The first half is named "Remaining Mountain", which is now collected in Zhejiang Provincial Museum. The latter part is named "Useless Master Volume" and is now in the Collection of the Taipei National Palace Museum.

Based on the value of painting art and the protection of excellent traditional Chinese culture, over the years, cultural relic restoration experts and relevant people in the industry have made a lot of efforts to find the restoration method of "Fuchun Mountain Dwelling map", and also gained a lot of practical experience. Now, using AI technology and wenxin model provided by Baidu, "Fuchun Mountain Dwelling Map" has been completed.

At the same time, AI technology also fully follow the traditional cultural habits, composition to remember it.In recent years, as a hot technology in the field of science and technology, AI has been developing rapidly around the world. This year, the latest data released by IDC shows that the scale of the world artificial intelligence market is expected to reach 432.8 billion US dollars in 2022 and exceed 500 billion US dollars in 2023. China's AI market is expected to reach 272.9 billion yuan in 2022, according to the China Academy of Industrial Research.

As countries attach great importance to the development of AI technology, the scale of the global market will be further enhanced in the future. Looking back at the rapid development of AI technology from its conception to today, Robin Li, founder and CEO of Baidu, explained his views in a public speech in 2020. "The development of AI will go through three historical stages of technological intelligence, economic intelligence and social intelligence, and it is currently in the development stage of economic intelligence," he said.

Technological intelligence refers to the development of AI as a new technology platform with the acceleration of algorithm iteration and the continuous support of 5G, big data, cloud computing and other emerging technologies. Economic intelligence refers to the explosive growth of data and the continuous improvement of Internet infrastructure, and AI is beginning to spread to the industry in all directions. Social intelligence means that AI pushes the whole society towards intelligent collaboration.

The United States is the most advanced country in AI technology, taking the lead in the development of chips, algorithms, computer vision and other fields. It not only has a solid technological foundation and capability, a large number of cutting-edge talents and excellent AI enterprises, but also has formulated the overall AI development strategy. China's AI technology is developing rapidly under the guidance of policy, capital and market factors, and currently ranks among the top in the world, mainly focusing on demand innovation and application implementation.

Consider the development of AI technology in China, mainly reflected in the Internet, public service and physical industry. For example, in the field of public services, AI technology has been integrated into subsectors such as medical care, education and government services to deeply mine effective data resources and promote innovation and upgrading of infrastructure at the social level. In the field of the Internet, with the help of a variety of emerging technologies such as big data, Internet of Things, cloud computing and 5G, and based on the online intelligent platform model, Taobao has realized the recommendation of goods with precise positioning, Bytedance has completed the recommendation algorithm of news, and Meituan has provided intelligent takeaway food delivery service. In the real field, AI is constantly penetrating into all walks of life, promoting industrial transformation and upgrading, and exploring application scenarios and innovation paths that can effectively empower the development of the real economy.

In this context, China's technology giant Baidu also seized the opportunity to meet the challenge, in basic research and innovation of technology, promote AI technology on the road of universal efforts. Baidu hosted the baidu World Conference 2022 jointly with CCTV News online on The morning of July 21.

The theme of this year's conference is "AI deeps, all things grow". Robin Li, founder, Chairman and CEO of Baidu, and heads of various business departments of Baidu attended the conference to share cutting-edge AI technologies, discuss hot topics and release the latest products.

Based on a major breakthrough in autonomous driving technology, the sixth generation of unmanned vehicle Apollo RT6 was released; On the basis of the deep integration of "cloud and intelligence", intelligent cloud "kaiwo" has been upgraded to version 2.0, focusing on key scenes, providing more than 200 industrial solutions for a number of industries; Based on the continuous exploration of intelligent life, the release of intelligent products including smart fitness mirror, intelligent voice alarm clock, small learning machine, etc.; Important progress has also been made in the research and development of the pre-training grand model. Not only the major upgrade has been completed, but also the world's first grand model in the aerospace field, "Space-Baidu · Wenxin Grand Model", has been jointly released with China Aerospace Cooperation.
