From advanced industrial integration to refreshing life creativity, attendees at the 2022 World Artificial Intelligence Conference felt that artificial intelligence (AI) has deeply integrated into daily life. Themed "Intelligent Connectivity Infinite Multiverse," the three-day conference concluded on Saturday in Shanghai. Walking into the exhibition hall, a screen showing characters on an ancient bronze vessel through an AI recognition system attracted many visitors. "Words scattered on the vessel are small and dense, and the reflective surface is bent and uneven, making it extremely difficult to identify them," said Wang Lechen, head of marketing of the Shanghai-based tech company specializing in business data and AI. Last year, the system could recognize ancient inscriptions on tortoise shells.
