Seminars topic: With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technologies, humanity is transitioning from traditional AI to spatial intelligence, marking a new era. This seminar will review the development trajectory of AI from image recognition (AI 1.0) to large models (AI 2.0), and further explore the creative integration of spatial intelligence (AI 3.0) with industry practices. Spatial intelligence connects perception, computing, and digital twin technologies to facilitate real-world interaction through robotics, industrial and urban governance, and public service innovation. This session will present the latest achievements from 8维通科技有限公司 (8Dimension Tech), highlight the synergy between spatial intelligence and economic innovation, and explore the challenges and opportunities emerging in this field. Together with the speakers, we will reflect on how spatial intelligence can become a driving force for future economic strategies and technological breakthroughs.
