Ten Thousand Word Talk丨Tongji Institute of Artificial Intelligence Hua Xiansheng: Engineering Intelligence is AI's 'Coming-of-Age Ceremony'
Hua Xiansheng, president of the Tongji University Institute for Engineering Intelligence, believes AI's true challenge lies in its ability to integrate into complex physical engineering systems, not just digital tasks. He proposes "engineering intelligence" as a paradigm that merges AI with engineering practice to solve core problems in areas like construction, manufacturing, and transportation. This integration aims to move AI from isolated successes to scalable applications through platforms and operating systems, while also exploring a co-creative human-AI relationship to avoid human marginalization.
