This large model
Why did you rush into the top 10 in the country?
Recently, the Cyberspace Administration of the Provincial Party Committee issued an announcement on the filing information of generative artificial intelligence services in the province, and Nanjing accounted for half of the six large models that were successfully recorded. Among them, Youling Technology, which was born in Xuanwu District a year ago, has become the youngest company on the list with its self-developed Qizhen model.
Compared with leading companies such as Huawei and Silicon-based Intelligence, which are on the list at the same time, Youling Technology is an out-and-out “dark horse”. In February 2023, several like-minded friends gathered at the New World Building on Zhujiang Road to set off from the “City Silicon Alley” to chase their entrepreneurial dreams. At that time, ChatGPT was born, and the artificial intelligence model became the hottest track of the digital economy, ushering in a “blowout” development stage.
Whether it’s R&D or applicationThe first to embrace the “new species”.Young people for sure
The start-up team of Youling Technology is almost all “post-90s”, this “Young Guard” is facing the “outlet”, based on the pan-entertainment experience of “Generation Z”, deeply cultivating the field of large language model segmentation, introducing data flywheel technology to collect real corpus, and after multiple rounds of error correction iterations, it successfully developed the “Qizhen large model”, and launched the artificial intelligence chat agent – I am AI.
From intelligent chat to online assistants, from interactive novels to real board games, “I am AI” is driven by new artificial intelligence technology, creates more interesting and soulful digital characters through the Qizhen model, and relies on the interaction of voice and text to quickly establish the emotional link between users and agent characters, so as to provide more personalized interaction and immersive emotional value. Turning “third person” into “first person”, this new experience has allowed “I am in AI” to attract tens of millions of active users in just one year. Another data is even more noteworthy: the average daily usage time per capita has reached 63 minutes, which is close to and surpasses many mainstream short videos, long videos, games, social networking and other applications, ranking among the top 10 of similar apps.
Behind the rapid “breaking out of the circle” of “AI”, there is not only its technical uniqueness, but also its accurate grasp of the entertainment needs of young people, and also thanks to the fertile soil of innovation in Xuanwu. “Zhujiang Road has convenient transportation, its own innovation genes, and an active software industry and digital economy. The founder of the company said that because of its close proximity to Nanda and Dongda, scientific and educational talent resources are the biggest advantage of the main city, and the team has grown from less than 10 people to more than 40 people.
Data, computing power, algorithms
It is known as driving the development of large models
“Troika”
As the first urban area in Jiangsu to develop the data element industry, Xuanwu is accelerating the construction of Jiangsu International Data Port, finding the best path to realize the value of data in massive data, and forming a killer application. Relying on the advantages of cloud-network integration, Xuanwu has cooperated with Jiangsu Telecom to establish a computing power dispatching center to support the large-scale model industry, and will provide more than 1,000P computing power support in the first phase.
At the beginning of this month, the “Xuanwu Large Model Factory” was unveiled in Xuzhuang High-tech Zone, focusing on innovative research and development, computing power services, data applications, ecological construction and other links in the field of artificial intelligence, making every effort to build a highland for the development of the large model industry, and simultaneously released a large model science and technology loan financial product with a total amount of more than 1 billion yuan.
A favorable industrial ecology breeds competitive enterprises. As a “new force” in the field of artificial intelligence, “I am AI” has won the attention of the capital market and successfully completed the first round of financing of 10 million yuan. “Compared with traditional giants such as BAT, we have no path dependence, can travel lightly, and create infinite possibilities. According to the person in charge of the company, through the continuous update of technology research and development and content supply, “I am AI” plans to explore more new models in commercial applications, develop AI toys, figures and other peripheral products, and simultaneously rely on the advantages of domestic manufacturing to open up the link to the sea.
In the ever-changing world of artificial intelligence, you can never predict how explosive a “little tadpole” will be. The next goal of Youling Technology is very specific and challenging – this year, it will strive to increase the number of active users of “I am in AI” to 50 million.
