Artificial Intelligence innovations make their global debut at WAIC in Shanghai. New techniques cover large scale language models or LLMs to improve clerical work and analyze news trends. The Shanghai Daily reported on Friday that products such as driverless vehicles and systems used in airports, street cleaning and traffic management applications were all on display.
These were unveiled and exhibited at the 2023 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) with the largest ever exhibition space of over 50,000 square meters.
Developed by STAR-listed Kingsoft Office, WPS AI officially debuted at WAIC with on-site demos such as one-click PPT generation and travel itinerary within seconds. Expectations were high, and the company had to invite a limited number of trial users to test his WPS AI, much like what happened with his ChatGPT debut.
China’s equivalent of Microsoft’s Office, WPS serves 589 million monthly active devices worldwide. “WPS AI will help users solve more problems in collaborative office work in the future,” said a company staff member at the booth.
Shanghai-based Midu has released Midu Wenxiu, China’s first vertical large-scale language model-based application for intelligent writing proofing and refinement. In Chinese, it performs better than ChatGPT on spelling and grammar correction tasks. Midu said it could bring “revolutionary efficiencies” to specialized areas such as reporting and publishing, media manuscripts and government documents.

Shanghai-based Midu has signed a deal with iFlytek for AI services to release new AI tools on WAIC.
Currently, the Midu AI service supports multiple languages, covering English and 12 Chinese minority languages. Also during WAIC, Midu signed an agreement with iFlytek for AI-powered writing proofing services for institutional customers.
Shanghai-based Westwell is showcasing the Q-Tractor, a new energy driverless vehicle used in airports and factories, at WAIC. With a payload capacity of 40 tonnes, this vehicle is designed to transport small cargo and tow luggage and is a ‘zero-emission’ model that operates 24/7 in a variety of weather conditions.

It is powered by Westwell’s self-developed QPilot self-driving system, which leverages multi-sensor fusion technology to support functions such as 360-degree perception, auto-positioning, cargo weighing, and auto-charging. .
The booth also showcased Westwell’s AI-powered Q-Truck, which is in commercial use in overseas markets such as Thailand, the UK and Mexico.
Shanghai-based Autowise.ai demonstrated at WAIC its Radar 24 system, which can remotely control and manage satellite vehicles.
If the unmanned sanitary vehicle encounters temporary traffic restrictions, obstacles, or illegal parking, the operator can initiate remote commands to get the vehicle out of trouble. One of her trained operators can remotely control 5-10 driverless vehicles.
Autowise.ai currently offers remote control services in Shanghai, Suzhou and Wuxi. Online training is available for international customers.
