On November 28, Lei Jun, the founder, chairman, and CEO of Xiaomi, made a bold statement during an exclusive media interview. He asserted that over the next five years, artificial intelligence (AI) is set to exert a far - reaching influence on traditional industries, and that every industry deserves to be reimagined and reshaped using AI technology.

Using Xiaomi's automotive factory as a case in point, Lei Jun highlighted the challenges faced in inspecting large die - cast parts. Such inspections are extremely difficult for human workers to handle effectively. However, with the aid of X - ray machines and advanced AI visual large models, the inspection process can be completed in a mere 2 seconds. This not only results in an efficiency that is 10 times greater than that of manual work but also achieves an accuracy level that is 5 times higher.

Lei Jun firmly believes that the in - depth integration of artificial intelligence with traditional industries will give rise to a trillion - dollar market. In this context, he emphasized that companies should seek out and collaborate with the most capable partners to jointly drive the upgrading of the industrial chain.

Moreover, the entry of humanoid robots into factories is no longer a far - fetched idea but is gradually becoming a reality. Lei Jun predicts that within the next five years, humanoid robots will see widespread use in Xiaomi's factories. He also points out that the demand for humanoid robots in the household market will be even more significant and demanding, presenting immense market potential.
