On September 22, during BOE's Global Innovation Partner Conference 2026, BOE Chairman Chen Yanshun shared his insights, forecasting that the advent of the intelligent era will be characterized by five key evolutionary trajectories: the enhancement of human life, the integration of silicon and carbon technologies, the transformation of the energy landscape, the advancement of intelligent infrastructure, and the evolution of social governance models. He emphasized that life and health stand out as the domains where AI can unlock its utmost potential. The advent of brain-computer interfaces will bridge the divide in information perception, while the widespread adoption of cutting-edge new energy technologies will cater to the escalating demands for computational power. Human-machine interaction is poised to usher in a new era, and the emergence of a novel civilizational ecosystem centered around human-AI symbiosis will become instrumental in shaping social governance. This transformation is expected to culminate in the establishment of a comprehensive framework of AI-driven social governance principles.

Chen Yanshun further underscored that AI, integrated circuits, future energy solutions, quantum technology, and life sciences will emerge as the principal arenas for the convergence of global technological resources. He highlighted that the integration and synergy of optoelectronic technologies will play a pivotal role in bolstering industrial development.
