AI application out of touch? Industry calls for practitioners to seriously polish the scene

(Original title: Artificial intelligence application disconnected? They call: Polish scene! Scene! Scene!)

Yesterday (April 13th), at the 2017 Artificial Intelligence Industry Entrepreneurship Innovation Summit held by Huntun.com, a participant said that instead of turning artificial intelligence into an IP, it is a kind of pursuit or concept. Sometimes IP artificial hype overheats. This is a problem that confuses everyone and businesses.

So, how can we make artificial intelligence more than just an outlet or a hotspot concept? "Daily Economic News" reporter noticed that many participating professionals mentioned a word: scene.

Evaluation of the polarization of artificial intelligence

"In March, I heard that artificial intelligence was written into the government work report, and everyone in our team jumped." An entrepreneur in the artificial intelligence field sighed at the "Daily Economic News" reporter at yesterday's summit.

Behind the joy of practitioners is the industry is hot, whether artificial intelligence was first written into the government work report on March 5 this year, rose to the national strategic height, or the ultimate contest between Chinese chess player Ke Jie and AlphaGo and other hot topics. All of them keep the attention of artificial intelligence high.

As a result, this area has also been favored by capital. In less than a year, two record-breaking acquisitions have taken place in the field of artificial intelligence chips. Whether it was 2016's acquisition of ARM by US$32.2 billion or Intel’s announcement of a US$15.3 billion purchase of Mobileye this year, they all showed a huge market space in the era of artificial intelligence.

Wang Huai, partner of Linear Capital Creations, said that in 2014, he invested three or four artificial intelligence companies and he was still very upset. However, by 2016, the investment circle has long been familiar with artificial intelligence.

However, while the artificial intelligence market is hot, there are also a number of industry insiders and investors who have expressed their own confusion. Chairman of the Triangle and COO Ma Yuchi said that the market for artificial intelligence is very different. Some customers think that artificial intelligence is a panacea, and everything can be done. However, some customers think that artificial intelligence is useless and does not have any relationship with current life. .

He believes that the current biggest misunderstanding is that the entire environment has reached an outrageous level of expectations for artificial intelligence, which requires companies to use the technology together with the product, and then commercialize the product, so as to reflect the value of artificial intelligence.

Xing Yang Capital founder Yang Ge said that instead of turning artificial intelligence into an IP, a pursuit or concept. At present, the greatest confusion of artificial intelligence is that there is a very big gap between the real application scenario and everybody's imagined scenario. Sometimes it feels overheated by artificial intelligence IP hype. This is where people are puzzled.

Subdivisions and subdivisions are more valuable

If you still want to enter the artificial intelligence track now, you need to consider whether you can enter from more subdivided areas. This is the suggestion made by Wang Shoukun, the founder of Ain Interactive.

Wang Hongye, partner of Shuimu Capital, said that before many capitals entered artificial intelligence, entrepreneurs took money too easily, so many people left the commercial nature, leading to capital winter. Now that the cold winter of capital has passed, investors have become more rational. When entrepreneurs went to investing institutions to get money, they found that the threshold was higher. He suggested that startup companies should not force themselves to rely on artificial intelligence.

“From a very long-term point of view, many things are worth investing in; if you consider from a very short-term window of opportunity, you may not be able to invest in many things.” Xiong Weiming, partner of China Capital Partners, said that the current issue to be considered is Should be business-first attitude, R & D technology to achieve application, rather than using the "savor" and "dish" to create functionality.

Daily Economic News reporter noted that many participants mentioned the importance of the scene. For example, Wang Huai believes that polishing the scene is more important than polishing technology.

Liu Wei, a partner of Broadband Capital, also stated that application scenarios are the main premise of artificial intelligence. In the past few years, he has seen many AI projects in a pan-scene scenario. So far, these projects are difficult to find their own direction and way out, and many project services Or the product simply cannot be effectively landed.

Zhang Lang, a venture capital partner at Longmax Ventures, said that the combination of industry applications and technologies is exactly what some companies lack. Artificial intelligence now needs to consider whether it really creates value. Only when this value is recognized can it exist or generate revenue.

Wang Shoukun stressed that artificial intelligence cannot be profitable if it is separated from the environment, scenarios, and products used. Therefore, more subdivided fields and more subdivided scenes become more and more valuable.
