Artificial intelligence (AI) has become the talk of the tech town in recent years. Huawei, a leading global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices, recognizes AI’s massive influence over the ICT sector and beyond.
Currently, Huawei serves over 3 billion people and operates in over 170 countries and regions, including the Middle East. Ahead of the company’s upcoming participation at GITEX Global 2024, Leo Chen, corporate senior vice president and president of Enterprise Sales at Huawei, talks about how Huawei is adopting as AI continues to redefine the tech space.
GITEX Global2024 is themed “AI Everything”. How is the rapid advancement of AI technologies influencing your industry sector? How is Huawei adopting this trend?
From a commercial application standpoint, no other technology has had such a profound impact in such a short amount of time. Overall, ongoing advancements in AI are driving more in-depth intelligent transformation across industries, laying the groundwork for All Intelligence.
AI is becoming the most impactful technology for industries. Huawei has years of experience with its own intelligent transformation. We’ve also been helping a wide range of industries become intelligent, too. Based on this experience, we’ve envisioned the future of intelligent enterprises in the age of AI.
We believe that future intelligent enterprises will have six distinct features that we call the six As. They will have an Adaptive User Experience, Auto-Evolving Products, Autonomous Operations, an Augmented Workforce, All-Connected Resources, and AI-Native Infrastructure.
How is Huawei’s business adopting and integrating AI innovation?
Over the past six years, we have steadily pressed ahead with strategic AI development, culminating in our All Intelligence Strategy.
We’ll integrate AI into Huawei’s internal management for greater efficiency and a better user experience. We are taking a two-phase approach to integrate AI into our internal management.
In Phase 1, we’ve been applying AI to repetitive, massive, and complex tasks to boost internal efficiency.
In Phase 2, we are applying AI foundation models to enhance cross-departmental collaboration and streamline the process of gathering and sharing information, making decisions and executing them.
Moving forward, we will work to build large corporate AI models using our Pangu models and high-quality data. Then we’ll use these models to reshape the way we work.
How does Huawei think of the concept of the “intelligent world”? What innovations, beyond AI, does Huawei believe will shape the future of the industry?
The intelligent world is fast approaching. The widespread use of digital and intelligent technology is revolutionizing our lifestyles, business productivity, and city operations.
Huawei’s full-stack technical capabilities in the areas of network, storage, computing, and cloud have given the company the unique ability to support industries in building AI-Ready infrastructure.
As a leading global ICT infrastructure provider, Huawei works with global partners to help customers in various regions and industries worldwide lay a solid foundation for the intelligent era.
