The essence of technological upgrading is not to create new concepts, but to solve "old needs" in new forms

The 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference and High Level Conference on Global Governance of Artificial Intelligence (WAIC) will be held in Shanghai from July 17th to 20th. Cai Chenyu, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of Liangliang Vision, stated in an interview with the Economic Observer that the "brain" of the current AI underlying big model has become increasingly sound, and the focus of industry competition is shifting from showcasing technology to the real implementation of application layers. For the enterprise service field, the essence of digitization is not to create new concepts, but to better solve the "old needs" of cost reduction and efficiency improvement through new forms.
