HK Stock Market Move | WERIDE-W(00800) rose nearly 3% in afternoon trading, officially releasing the self-developed universal simulation model WeRide GENESIS.

WERIDE-W (00800) rose nearly 3% in the final trading session, rising 2.81% by the time of publication to 23.44 Hong Kong dollars, with a trading volume of 15.83 million Hong Kong dollars. On the news front, according to an official announcement from WERIDE-W, on January 28, the company officially released its self-developed universal simulation model - WeRide GENESIS, establishing a bridge between Physical AI and Generative AI, connecting the "real-world physics" with the "virtual simulation world", to accelerate the development, training, and commercialization of autonomous vehicles. With the help of generative AI technology, WeRide GENESIS is able to quickly "generate the world" in a virtual environment - building highly realistic simulated urban environments in just a few minutes, and accurately recreating extreme rare scenarios that are difficult to obtain at high frequencies on real roads, allowing autonomous driving systems to undergo intense training and validation in the virtual environment. Additionally, by continuously feeding back the experiences gained from simulation into real-world road operations, WeRide GENESIS significantly enhances the ability and efficiency of autonomous driving algorithms to handle complex real-world scenarios, while reducing the time and cost traditionally required for road testing.
