More than 3,000 AI products from over 800 high-tech enterprises are on display during the World Artificial Intelligence Conference running from Saturday to next Tuesday in Shanghai.
At the AI conference, there is a system that can build many websites or applications just via conversations either in audio or writing.
"To put it simply, it boils down to six words: 'Build an APP with just conversation'. We can create all kinds of applications just by chatting. For example, for individual websites, company websites, company management systems for human resources or assets, as well as marketing tools and trading platforms for small business, they can all be built just through conversation," said Zhu Guangxiang, staff member of Baidu's Miaoda Product.
The event is a big platform for people from all over the world to engage in the cutting-edge tech in Shanghai, and they also hailed it all.
"I'm feeling good. I'm feeling excited. It's my first time in Shanghai, in China. It's my first time attending all the AI conferences. I never imagined anything like that. Me and my friends were looking for 3D printers. So there are many options here, many great guys," said Erekle Beridze, a visitor from Georgia.
"I saw many fields where the AI is currently used in, like to make the life better and to make the world more sustainable, let’s say. And currently, I’m a software engineer, I’m also in data science. And I just think how can I make better this field using the AI and our artificial Intelligence?" said Teimurazi Pkhakadze, another visitor from Georgia.
At the event, over 100 groundbreaking products will be making their global or China debut, which can be a good opportunity for tech enthusiasts to explore.

Iran has surprised its foes with the extent of its military power and resilience in the conflict with Israel and the U.S., Egyptian analysts in Cairo said.
With the conflict in its fourth week, Iran has shown that while it may lack the strong military muscle of the U.S. and Israel, it can strike effectively at Israeli cities and U.S. Gulf allies.
Iran's military capabilities are perhaps proving stronger than previously anticipated.
As soon as Israel and the U.S. attacked Iran on February 28, Tehran responded with barrages of missiles targeting Israel as well as U.S. military facilities in the six Gulf Cooperation Council countries and Jordan.
As the war began to stretch, Iran has expanded the list of its targets to include a total of 10 countries, and among them is a British base in Cyprus used by the United States.
Last week, a reported Iranian attack on another British military base on Diego Garcia Island in Mauritius signaled Tehran's possible capability to strike targets up to 4,000 kilometers away from its shores, bringing most of Europe within its radius of reach.
Walid Atlam, a researcher at the National Center for Studies, said Iran managed to use its military power to seize the global economic artery, the Strait of Hormuz, to exert pressure on the U.S. and Israel.
"The Iranian tactical strike on southern Israel, including the one near the Dimona nuclear facility or on Arad is the most effective qualitative attack during this war. It is also the deepest hit yet inside Israel. Another success for Iran is the closure of the Strait of Hormuz -- though only a partial one. In doing so, Iran managed to pressure a pillar of the global economy by disrupting energy markets and global supply chains. These effects will be felt even after a ceasefire," he said.
Iran does not match the U.S. and Israel in military might. For Tehran, surviving the war is the ultimate goal. Until then, it aims to inflict maximum damage -- not only militarily but also politically.
Mohamed al Shahawy, former chief of staff of military chemical warfare of the Egyptian Armed Forces, said Iran has surprised its foes with its military capabilities.
"Iran's resilience in fighting into the fourth week is the biggest surprise, so is its ability to target U.S. military bases with new generations of missiles. The U.S.-Israeli objective in this war, including overthrowing the regime in Iran, destroying Iran's ballistic missiles program and its nuclear facilities, and seizing Iran's enriched uranium, has failed," he said.
Atlam said the ongoing conflict seems to be undermining U.S. dominance and straining the close relations with its European allies.
"I think this war has created a kind of doubt about the United States and its foreign policy. The most significant sign is perhaps a clear European desire to reduce its dependence on the U.S., both militarily and economically. This was evident when many European countries refused to get directly involved in this war or join a coalition to secure navigation in the Strait of Hormuz," he said.
