After the formal unveiling, Nanda signed an agreement with representatives of Jingdong and Vision, and the latter will provide training bases for AI students.
“Some forward-thinking companies have realized the importance of cultivating artificial intelligence talents. Today’s well-known enterprises such as Jingdong and Vision, which signed the first batch of student training bases, are outstanding representatives. They have already settled in the development zone. Specialized in the construction of research institutes and industrialization companies near our Institute of Artificial Intelligence." China’s first AAAI Fellow and Professor Zhou Zhihua, head of the Department of Computer Science and Technology at Nanjing University, said in a speech.

On March 5 this year, Nanjing University decided to set up an artificial intelligence college, with Zhou Zhihua as the dean. This is also the first C9 college artificial intelligence college in China. At present, the relevant work of the college enrollment is being prepared. It is planned to set up two undergraduate majors of machine learning and data mining, intelligent systems and applications in the initial stage. From September this year, students will be enrolled, with a scale of 60-100.
At the opening ceremony, the Institute of Artificial Intelligence of Nanjing University also signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Nanjing Development Zone. The latter will integrate resources for the development of Nanda Institute of Artificial Intelligence in the next step, and do a good job in the landing of scientific and technological achievements and the development of new research and development institutions. Integrate development" work.
In addition, the magnesium guest network also confirmed on the spot that Jingdong has decided to settle in the Nanjing Economic and Technological Development Zone (hereinafter referred to as “Nanjing Development Zoneâ€), not the Xianlin District mentioned in the previous report.
At present, JD.com has reached an agreement with the development zone on the landing and investment issues for the “Jingdong (Nanjing) Artificial Intelligence Research Institute†and “AI Accelerator†projects, and officially signed the contract. Subsequent issues such as site selection and settlement were handed over to the independent legal person company “Nanjing Jingdong Zhihui Information Technology Co., Ltd.†(which has been registered in the industry and commerce) invested by Jingdong in the development zone.
In the specific business, "Jingdong (Nanjing) Artificial Intelligence Research Institute" will focus on the technical fields of speech semantics, computer vision, machine learning, etc., driven by the actual business scene needs of Jingdong, focusing on continuous algorithm innovation and becoming Jingdong. An important component of the ecosystem's large platform.
The “AI Accelerator†focuses on the selection of global startups with a deep understanding of AI or a deep understanding of verticals. After being put into operation, the AI ​​accelerator is expected to bring 50 upstream and downstream cooperative enterprises to the development zone within five years to create a characteristic industrial cluster.
At present, Jingdong has formed a distinct ABC (artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing) technology development strategy. In terms of specific operations, it established the Jingdong AI platform and research department with the AI ​​platform as the core task, and the former IBM Watson chief scientist Professor Zhou Bowen served as the department head.
