The company unveiled this plan during the High-Quality Mobile Communications Development Forum for 2024. At this event, Tsao Jiebin, Huawei’s Senior Vice President, delivered a speech discussing the launch of the 5G-A era in the region through collaborative cooperation.
Jiebin indicated that Huawei aims to enhance its smart assistant “Celia” to become a comprehensive and advanced assistant supporting 5.5G network technology and featuring advanced artificial intelligence capabilities. Additional information indicated that the new assistant may rely on the large language model known as “Pangu” in artificial intelligence.
With the company announcing its readiness to launch the new “Pangu Model 5.0” at the HDC 2024 conference, it is expected that this technology will be used in the upcoming voice assistant. The voice assistant “Celia” relies on large language models and advanced algorithms, and the company’s current goal is to make it more intelligent and efficient for users.
Jiebin believes that the new features will better meet the users’ needs than before. He explained, “Huawei is the first company to integrate artificial intelligence into smartphones. In the next phase, we aim to transform Celia into an intelligent assistant based on the Pangu large language model, integrating artificial intelligence capabilities with fifth-generation network technology, enabling users to have an enhanced experience.”
In addition to the voice assistant “Celia,” Jiebin discussed the benefits of 5G-A technology, which provides a faster, more stable, and efficient mobile communication network compared to previous network versions. He explained that the 5G-A network will increase in strength over the next decade, enhancing digital transformation and providing many artificial intelligence advantages to customers.
Jiebin predicted that the demand for smart technologies and artificial intelligence capabilities will increase by 100 times, and the demand for artificial intelligence computing will increase by 500 times. Despite the slow progress in chip production, Jiebin believes that the future will witness significant positive changes.
