AI technology is favored in the capital market. In early 2016, Alphago made artificial intelligence famous, and the policy attaches importance to the development of AI. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said that by 2030, China's artificial intelligence technology will reach the world's leading level and become the official main artificial intelligence innovation center.
In the venue of the AI ​​Challenger Global AI (Artificial Intelligence) Challenge, a PPT displayed by a contestant appeared in this sentence. This sentence is a sentence that is described by the photos provided by the organizer using deep learning and trained artificial intelligence (computer system).
If classified according to industry, this technique of identifying and describing pictures belongs to computer vision. After the second artificial intelligence boom in the 1980s, the development of artificial intelligence began to develop along different branches such as machine vision and natural language understanding.
The emergence of the neural network (a machine learning technique that mimics the human brain neural network) in 2012 provided an opportunity for the rise of the third wave of artificial intelligence. With the rapid advancement of computing power of hardware devices and the growth of data storage, commercial application cases of artificial intelligence continue to emerge. In the fields of image recognition and language translation, this technology has already demonstrated its irreplaceable value.
More value is still at the capital level, and investment institutions and Internet giants continue to invest their money in artificial intelligence and related areas. Commercial companies are also happy to announce their AI strategy - just completing a round of financing of 4 billion financing, that is, they will increase their investment in AI transportation, and even students in computer science and electronic engineering related fields will occasionally express their own learning. Is the artificial intelligence profession. "For people outside the industry, we will say that we are learning artificial intelligence, but this word is rarely used in schools, and only specific professions are mentioned," Shuai Jingwen said to the Economic Observer. Shuai Jingwen is a third-year student in electrical engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China. He is also one of the participants in the AI ​​Challenger Global AI Challenge. In the past six months, this is the third time he participated in the field of artificial intelligence. game. With the rise of the concept of artificial intelligence, various competitions have emerged, and most of the competitions are organized by Internet companies or investment institutions.
Companies that hold artificial intelligence competitions hope to reserve more talent for this industry. After the rise of the concept of artificial intelligence, graduates from related fields in China have become very tight. The data provided by Zhou Ming, deputy director of the Education and Testing Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in 2016 shows that the gap of artificial intelligence talents in China exceeds 5 million, and it is also outside the venue of AI Challenger. You can see job advertisements placed by Internet companies. "We hope to see China's young AI scientists within three years, and we can compete with the United States on a platform to reach the world's leading height," said Kai-Fu Lee, chairman and CEO of Innovation Works, at the AI ​​Challenger conference.
Heat waves hitInnovative workshop is one of the organizers of the AI ​​Challenger Challenge. Li Kaifu himself is one of the earliest supporters of this wave of artificial intelligence.
Since the beginning of 2016, Kai-Fu Lee has frequently appeared in various investment venues to preach his concept of artificial intelligence. One page of PPT content frequently quoted by the media is: How many occupations will artificial intelligence replace?
Although Alphago made artificial intelligence famous in early 2016, at least as of the middle of last year, the enthusiasm of the investment circle for artificial intelligence has not been fully released. An investment institution tried to hold an artificial intelligence summit in the first half of 2016. Because the responders slammed in the middle.
However, in the second half of the year, the artificial intelligence fever in the investment field began to spread. Scholars in computer science and electronic engineering in colleges and universities began to be invited to the investment conference to introduce artificial intelligence. A computer vision researcher was in the week. In the time, I received an invitation to the meeting three times in a row. At the same time, funds began to flood into this field, and a large number of companies related to artificial intelligence appeared. According to McKinsey's report, in 2016, technology giants invested $20 billion to $30 billion in artificial intelligence, 90% of which was spent on R&D and deployment, and another 10% on artificial intelligence acquisitions. VC and PE financing, grants, and seed round investments are also growing rapidly, and although the base is small, it has grown to a total of $6 billion to $9 billion.
The degree of emphasis on policy is also constantly increasing. In May 2016, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other four ministries and commissions issued the "Internet +" artificial intelligence three-year action implementation plan. In early 2017, artificial intelligence was written into the government report, and in July the State Council released the “New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Planâ€. According to the goals set by this plan, China’s artificial intelligence theory, technology and application by 2030. It has reached the world's leading level and has become the world's leading artificial intelligence innovation center. The intelligent economy and intelligent society have achieved remarkable results, laying an important foundation for being among the forefront of innovative countries and economic powers.
Talent shortageLuo Ruotian is a Ph.D. student at the Toyota University of Technology in Chicago. His major is computer vision. This is a branch of the field of artificial intelligence that is considered to be of great commercial value. There are already medical and security applications. In the last few years, the difficulty of applying for Luo Ruotian's major has become more and more serious.
Computer science and electronic engineering are the main destinations for artificial intelligence talents. Liu Yang, an associate professor in the Department of Computer Science at Tsinghua University, told the Economic Observer that after the concept of artificial intelligence was hot, the number of "high school entrance examination champions" for computer science majors increased significantly.
The current status of the capital market has made artificial intelligence a hot job. Shuai Jingwen told the Economic Observer that more and more graduates in his majors would choose to work in artificial intelligence-related startups. Another professor of artificial intelligence also told the Economic Observer that in 2016, the income of its graduates has increased significantly, which has caused students in school to continuously raise their expectations for salary.
The continuous rise in the price of talents shows the current situation of talent shortage in the field of artificial intelligence. In December 2017, Tencent released a “White Paper on Global Artificial Intelligence Talents in 2017â€. This white paper shows that there are about 300,000 talents in the global AI field, including about 100,000 in the university field and about 200,000 in the industry. Market demand is on the order of millions. This shortage will continue for some time to come. The white paper data shows that there are 367 colleges with artificial intelligence research in the world, and about 20,000 students in the AI ​​field graduate each year, far from meeting the market demand for talent.
To this end, the industry has begun to promote the growth of the number and quality of artificial intelligence talents by forming research institutes or conducting competitions. The AI ​​Challenger held this time is for such a purpose. According to the data provided by the organizers of the conference, this year's AI Challenger has a total of 8,892 teams, and the number of participants is 106,790, of which 92% are domestic players, mainly from Beijing, Guangdong and Shanghai.
