During an interview with reporters during the Hanover Industrial Fair, Joachim Koehler, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Deutsche Messe, the organizer of the fair, stated that artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming a fundamental industrial technology alongside automation, digitization, and other technologies, driving a new round of industrial transformation and upgrading. The theme of this year's Hanover Industrial Fair is "Insight into the Future of Industry through Technology", with a focus on the transformation brought by AI to global industrial production. Kokler recalled that in recent years, with the breakthrough of AI technology, massive data has begun to be more effectively utilized in the industrial field. Currently, the development path of AI is shifting from digital applications represented by language models to a wider range of physical industry scenarios, and is entering production workshops to play a role in real industrial environments. Of particular note is that some AI based systems have begun to possess autonomous decision-making capabilities, providing new possibilities for improving production efficiency and optimizing resource allocation. Kokler believes that "physical AI" represented by humanoid robots is a major highlight of this year's exhibition. There are various possibilities for the specific application forms of such robots in the industrial field in the future, such as whether they will directly participate in the manufacturing of complex products such as vehicles or undertake more automation tasks. Overall, this type of technology is expected to be widely applied not only in the service industry, healthcare, and other fields, but also in industries with clear potential for application. He also metaphorically said that facing the new technology of humanoid robots is like transitioning from riding a bicycle to piloting an airplane, and companies need to learn how to use this new tool to better unleash its potential. In this context, this year's Hanover Fair has set up a special area for humanoid robots for the first time, showcasing the latest achievements in related fields. Among them, humanoid robots with different forms and functions brought by multiple Chinese companies have become the focus of attention on site. Kokler believes that with the continuous development of AI and robotics technology, more opportunities for cross-border cooperation will arise. In this process, collaborative innovation among enterprises and researchers from various countries will inject sustained momentum into industrial transformation. (Looking into the New Era)
