Global Network reporter Zhang Yang: A new wave of AI craze, represented by AIGC and Big Model, is sweeping the world. During the 2023 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC2023), Global Network reporters visited Shanghai Institute of Artificial Intelligence, Shanghai Jiaotong University Institute of Translational Medicine and other research institutions to feel the speed of AI development in China.

Shanghai Institute of Artificial Intelligence is a new research and development institution jointly invested and initiated by Shanghai Jiaotong University, Minhang District People's Government, Lingang Group and SenseTime. The research institute focuses on the construction of three platforms: "high-end professional think tanks, research and development and industrial transformation platforms, and industry finance and ecological innovation platforms". It undertakes the tasks of artificial intelligence research and development and transformation cultivation in Shanghai, focusing on the research and development of basic and core technologies in the field of artificial intelligence, the application of key and common technologies, the construction of new generation artificial intelligence demonstration application scenarios, achievement transformation, and talent cultivation.

The research institute shoulders the important mission of the strategic development of the artificial intelligence sector in the construction of Shanghai Science and Technology Innovation Center. It is committed to institutional innovation, trial and error, and creates a new type of research and development institution that is diversified, open and cooperative, internationally coordinated, and domestically leading. It adheres to facing the forefront of world science and technology, the main battlefield of the economy, and major national needs, focusing on the real needs, data, and scenarios of the industry, Taking the national advanced manufacturing industry and Shanghai's "3+6" new industrial system as the driving force, building a functional platform for artificial intelligence research and development and industrial transformation in Shanghai has become a strong driving force for the development of China's artificial intelligence industry cluster.

In the development of AI, computing power comes first - especially after entering the era of large models, computing power is the key to supporting the new round of AI development. In 2022, Shanghai Institute of Artificial Intelligence and Huawei signed a comprehensive cooperation strategic agreement under the witness of Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology. The two sides will focus on providing artificial intelligence computing resources and services for Shanghai, the Yangtze River Delta region, and even the whole country, carry out cooperation in the operation of public computing service platforms, and promote the construction of artificial intelligence computing network ecology. It also focuses on the Digital transformation of vertical industries such as intelligent manufacturing, intelligent medical treatment, biopharmaceuticals, intelligent connected vehicles, robots and so on to jointly carry out application scenario mining, solution design and implementation, enabling innovative development of the industry.

Since the signing of the cooperation agreement, both parties have jointly planned multiple industrial ecological activities, jointly promoted the construction of the Shanghai Public Computing Power Service Platform, and supported the operation of the Public Computing Power Service Platform with the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute as the Ascending Ecological Partner, achieving saturation operation upon the launch of the Public Computing Power Service Platform. At the same time, in June of this year, both sides will jointly establish the first Shengsi Artificial Intelligence Framework Innovation Center, based on the independent open-source framework of Shengsi MindSpore, empowering the southbound computing ecosystem and the northbound model application ecosystem.

The Institute of Translational Medicine at Shanghai Jiao Tong University is a directly affiliated unit of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, mainly responsible for the operation and scientific research management of the National Major Science and Technology Infrastructure of Translational Medicine (Shanghai), the establishment of a facility capacity cooperation and sharing network, the organization and planning of major scientific research plans, the establishment of a large science cooperation network, and the construction of a new national science center.

The purpose of the Institute of Translational Medicine of Shanghai Jiaotong University is to break the barrier between Medicine#Basic sciences and clinical medicine, truly build a new research system from laboratory to hospital bed, and quickly transform basic research achievements into clinical treatment. Make use of the advantages of current clinical medicine and Medicine#Basic sciences, integrate the research strength of other disciplines of the school, and strive to make a major breakthrough in the research, diagnosis and treatment of major diseases.

In 2023, Shanghai Institute of Artificial Intelligence, Xiangfu Laboratory and the National Science Center for Translational Medicine (Shanghai) jointly released the country's first pre training model in the field of DNA storage - "ChatDNA". The release of this model will bring new breakthroughs to the field of DNA storage. Shanghai Modern Service Industry Federation, Shanghai Jiaotong University Institute of Translational Medicine, Shanghai Institute of Artificial Intelligence, and Fudan University Institute of Intelligent Medicine jointly launched the establishment of the "AI Translational Medicine Industry Chain Alliance". The alliance will aim to promote medical transformation, create a new generation of "government, industry, university, research and application" collaborative innovation system, and accelerate the promotion of medical science and technology innovation, achievements transformation, and demonstration applications.

The School of Translational Medicine of Shanghai Jiaotong University has accumulated profound scientific research strength in bioinformatics. The Shengteng AI industry is based on the basic software and hardware platform of Shengteng AI. The two sides jointly exchange and explore the integration of IT technology and BT Technological convergence. Based on Shengteng and Shengsi MindSpot, they jointly incubate multi-modal large model algorithms in medicine and other fields to assist in the realization of Medical imaging data analysis and statistics. At the same time, the two sides also carried out exploration and cooperation in the field of biological computing, Transfer learning drug information data through NLP algorithm, realizing drug structure prediction, drug forming analysis, etc., and assisting and accelerating Drug design. The joint incubation results of both parties will promote the transformation in the industry and achieve the commercial implementation of IT and BT integrated technology.

During the visit, the reporter also happened to meet the researchers debugging the world's most advanced BELONE EEG system equipment, which has the largest number of 280 channels at present. The Geodesic head is constructed by using a new geometric design modular pentagon unit, and signal acquisition can cover the whole head. Through the acquisition of human brain signals, combined with AI technology, it is expected to analyze human EEG signals, It is expected to be applied in scenarios such as rehabilitation, sensory or strength enhancement for people with disabilities and behavioral impairments in the future.
