Xinhua News Agency, May 29, at the parallel forum of the Zhongguancun Forum in Beijing, Zhao Zhiyun, director of the China Institute of Science and Technology Information, released the "Research report on the Map of China's artificial Intelligence Big Model." Zhao Zhiyun interpreted that various technical routes of Chinese large models are making breakthroughs in parallel, especially in natural language understanding, machine vision, multimodal and other aspects, there are a number of influential large models in the industry. According to incomplete statistics, so far, 79 large models with 1 billion-level parameters and above have been released in China. The report points out that the geographical and domain distribution of large models in China is relatively concentrated. From the perspective of regional distribution, 14 provinces are carrying out research and development of large models, mainly in Beijing and Guangdong, among which there are 38 large models in Beijing and 20 in Guangdong. From the perspective of domain distribution, natural language processing is still the most active focus area in the research and development of large models, followed by multimodal fields, and there are few large models in the fields of computer vision and intelligent speech. From the perspective of the distribution of R & D subjects, different innovation subjects such as universities, scientific research institutions and enterprises are actively participating in the research and development of large models, but the joint research and development between academia and industry is still insufficient.
