Ideal car CTO Xie Yan: To become a leading company, AI chips are a must-do.

The CTO of Ideal Car, Xie Yan, reveals the underlying logic of car companies making chips by using the evolution of the consumer electronics industry: "Apple's chips can provide its operating system with differentiated capabilities, this kind of vertical integration is the value that general solutions cannot provide." He pointed out that future automotive competition will move towards differentiation, leading car companies will inevitably move towards self-research at the bottom level, "If you aspire to be a core AI company, making AI chips is a must, and if you want to become a leading company, you must do this."
