As another important field alongside AI, 5G has been discussed and studied by the US government at internal working meetings for many times. In June 5438+last year 10, Trump signed a presidential memorandum, requesting the Ministry of Commerce to formulate a long-term and comprehensive 5G strategy. China not only wrote 5G into the 13th Five-Year Plan, but also supported the industry to set up IMT-2020(5G) promotion group and launched the world's largest 5G technology research and development experiment.

The reason why 5G and AI are so valued is that they are frequently mentioned by the government and various industries, because the combination of the two will have a convergence effect, which will give birth to many new technologies, new platforms, new business models and new industries. , bring unprecedented opportunities for innovation, and may even be the arrival of a new era.

At present, artificial intelligence basically relies on cloud computing and the processing of the terminal itself. The terminal processes and refines the obtained massive information in itself, and then processes it in the AI brain in the cloud. However, due to the limited processing capacity of the terminal and the limited transmission capacity of the network, the current artificial intelligence is slow and mentally retarded. If the application is connected to the cloud through the 5G network, using edge computing and other technologies, the distributed architecture of the 5G core network will perfectly match the needs of the application to extend to the edge, and the edge gateway can directly forward the information to the edge application, helping AI to extend the application to the edge.

5G is the cornerstone of the Internet of Everything. Just like the information superhighway, it provides the possibility for the transmission of massive data and information, and also brings more efficient transmission rate. AI is a booster of the Internet of Everything, not only a brain in the cloud, but also a neural network that can complete learning and evolution, and become an extension of human wisdom. The interaction between the two will enable 5G, optimize the 5G network and promote the 5G landing. The 5G network with AI attribute is a self-energy network. 5G is also an enabling technology, changing production methods, changing social life, and making AI everywhere. As a new basic network facility, 5G not only serves people, but also serves people and society. As the productive forces of the new era, they will bring about changes in the mode of production and the improvement of the productive forces of the whole society.
