Artificial intelligence has been put into practical application and generated value in more and more industries. At the same time, after sorting out the industry, we can see that advanced artificial intelligence will be first landed in the mobile phone industry in the future. Mobile phones are also by far the most accessible industry for capital and consumers.

Now, however, the mobile industry is Mired in confusion about the concept of ARTIFICIAL intelligence. Many AI phones are still in the early stages of application, but more and more manufacturers are presenting AI gimmicks to confuse consumers and investors. It can be said that AI mobile phones have reached a critical moment to establish industry standards.

Among the ai marketing gimmicks emerging in the mobile space are mobile apps that stay at the level of smart systems and impose ai concepts on them. For example, artificial intelligence saves electricity, artificial intelligence positioning and artificial intelligence optimization of mobile phone operation, as well as the recognition of objects such as portrait and food, photographic effect and so on. However, these applications are actually third-party applications of the mobile phone system by definition, and do not have artificial intelligence functions such as self-calculation and judgment.

The other is the voice command function derived from voice interaction. As one of the core technologies of ARTIFICIAL intelligence, voice recognition is now taken as a starting point and actively deployed by various technology giants. However, many mobile phone manufacturers with the banner of voice interaction AI only have simple voice interface control.

This function looks are very similar to interact with the artificial intelligence, can open voice control cell phone software, and carry on some simple voice commands, but not true artificial intelligence, its applications include voice dialing, voice navigation, voice only document retrieval, the simple data entry, such as dictation rough voice control, It does not have the functions of voice interaction, language learning or even error recognition.

These fake artificial intelligence are most likely to mislead consumers and investors, thus confusing the difference between current smart phones and AI phones. They are also likely to lose market enthusiasm for AI phones and thus lose good development opportunities. Therefore, AI mobile phone urgently needs to establish its own industry standard, to give the public a clear discrimination standard.

What are the real AI phone standards?

At present, most of the so-called ai function of the mobile phone, in fact, is mainly in the application layer, and most of the external third-party applications. But the core competitiveness of a true AI phone is measured by computing power and algorithms, which are chip-level and AI algorithms.

Chip level: First, let’s look at the appeal of artificial intelligence to chips. The goal of deep learning is to imitate the method of human neural network to perceive the external world. With the continuous expansion of the application of artificial intelligence, giants have laid out artificial intelligence chips. Exclusive ARTIFICIAL intelligence chips have become strategic heights, from Internet giants to traditional chip design companies have laid out in this field. In these scuffles gradually formed a certain industry pattern and standards into the bureau.

The iPhone’s A11 chip, for example, has a Neural Engine built into it that mimics biological nerves and is used in face recognition. Meanwhile, Huawei phones already use kirin 970, and even the upcoming Honor V10 will feature kirin 970 with its own NPU chip, which is the industry’s first AI chip, with approximately 25 times performance and 50 times energy efficiency compared to the four Cortex-A73 cores. It can greatly improve the ability of mobile phone in image recognition, voice interaction, intelligent photography and other aspects, so that mobile phone “more understand you”.

Algorithm level: The rise of deep learning has ushered in a new wave of development for machine algorithms, which has also become a catalyst for the rapid development of artificial intelligence. Algorithm has thus become one of the new evaluation criteria for AI phones.

Glory Magic magic Live wisdom system is the use of self-developed algorithm, in semantic understanding, voice interaction, visual recognition have brought a good experience. At the same time, Honor is striving to improve the processing speed and performance power ratio of representative intelligent algorithms by 10,000 times, to complete the real-time understanding and recognition of images, voice and text on the mobile terminal, and more importantly, through real-time training, continuously improve the ability to truly surpass.

At its core, both AI chips and algorithms are designed to solve real problems. When algorithms and chips are perfectly combined, embedded AI solutions that combine hard and soft can be reborn and used more widely.

Under the establishment of standards, AI mobile phones will also usher in a watershed

While the AI mobile industry standards are gradually becoming clear, we can see that the research and development of AI mobile phone is not the ability of ordinary mobile phone manufacturers. Therefore, at the same time of the emergence of technical standards, the threshold for mobile phone manufacturers to enter the office also emerges, and the watershed of AI mobile phone industry also appears.

According to the AI mobile phone industry standard, the mobile phone manufacturer to be imported should have the following three capabilities. One is to have the basic research ability of cognitive computing and produce corresponding results; Secondly, I can obtain a large number of core data of vertical application fields, and have experience in modeling and data processing and analysis; Third, intelligent business model has been established in vertical application field, and intelligent technology can be introduced quickly.

As early as two years ago, Honor began to focus on AI layout, including Noah’s Ark Lab, Gauss Lab, Shannon Lab, Huawei “2012 lab” has been established. In the field of artificial intelligence, Honor has made continuous breakthroughs in deep learning and achieved outstanding achievements in the industry. Based on deep learning, the entire Huawei team has also developed the most advanced neural transponder in the industry and released the industry’s first single-round dialogue generation model based on deep learning.

Apple, meanwhile, opened Siri to users around the world back in 2014 by porting its Siri voice recognition system to a neural network-based system. As Siri has gotten smarter with new updates, the Apple Brain has quietly made its way into Apple’s OS. The latest iPhoneX perfectly presents its AI system, which is applied in human interaction, neural network processing, natural language event processing and other capabilities. In addition, it can recognize objects, recognize faces, categorize scenes and other functions that smartphones do not have.

For honor, Huawei, Apple and other mobile phone manufacturers, how to perfect the application of “artificial intelligence” into terminal products will be an important way to attract consumers’ attention. Compared with other products, mobile phones, as consumer products with higher popularity and use, generate a large amount of user operation data and sensor data collection every day. Therefore, mobile phones are considered to be one of the best carriers of AI. This is also the reason why Honor chose to move the AI market from the mobile terminal.

We can see that Apple, Huawei and Honor have achieved the leading technology in the field of AI mobile phone, and have also established corresponding industry standards. With the establishment of these standards, the watershed of AI mobile phone industry has really begun to emerge, and they will definitely lead the next wave of mobile phone industry.

AI phones will lead the mobile phone industry to open up a new situation

The current mobile phone market has reached saturation, and the impact of AI phones, a brand new artificial smart phone, will inevitably lead to a new wave of users buying and switching phones, which we can see from the sales of Apple’S iPhone X. Similarly, the upcoming Honor V10 AI phone with kirin 970 chip will also bring a new wave of buying and replacing phones.

On the one hand, AI phones can form their own ecology. As the entrance to the intersection of life and the Internet, a new life ecological circle centered on AI phone will be formed. After the launch of AI mobile phones, more comprehensive and more convenient emerging functions than current smart phones will also appear, new mobile phone functions will lead to new lifestyle and new function trends.

It is not hard to imagine that AI phones in the future will update today’s smartphone era just as smart phones completely replace traditional phones. With the advent of AI phones in a new way, our lifestyle will change, and the era of AI phones that can predict the future will be in full force.

On the other hand, AI phones will also promote the landing and popularization of the whole artificial intelligence. As the smart hardware closest to users and with the highest coverage, mobile phones also offer several advantages.

First, we need to lay a solid foundation and speed up the development of ARTIFICIAL intelligence. At present, mobile phones are the intelligent hardware that can collect the largest amount, most comprehensive and real data. Meanwhile, the update and iteration of data processing on mobile phones also requires powerful hardware, cloud storage and algorithms, which will lay a solid foundation for the research and development of artificial intelligence.

Second, mobile phones are the best entry point for ARTIFICIAL intelligence. Mobile phones have a wide range of applications and rich levels of use, so they can fit in well with the artificial intelligence environment. In addition, mobile phones are the most widely used smart products, so it is the easiest to promote and implement them, and it is also the best place to cultivate the habits of AI users.

It can be seen that AI will be the next revolutionary technology for mobile phones as AI mobile phone industry standards continue to improve. Emerging AI phones represented by Honor and Apple will also cause a new round of industry changes. As technology continues to mature, a new era of smart phones is approaching.
