The annual Person of the Year revealed by Time magazine.

This time, instead of choosing a single hero, the cover is given to 8 individuals who are hailed as

"architects of human AI civilization."

Among these 8, 3 are of Chinese descent.

Elon Musk is no longer the most prominent figure; Huang Renxun is firmly seated in the C position.

Huang Renxun is currently among the top ten on the global wealth list.

But what’s more worth discussing than wealth is a statement he made in a recent interview:

AI will raise the upper limit of human GDP by another 5 times.

If this statement comes true, then Nvidia's position today may only be the prologue, and $NVDA's market value will become increasingly stable.

The other few Chinese "architects"

On the far right is Fei-Fei Li, from Beijing, later moved to the U.S.

The creator of ImageNet, she directly propelled the explosion of deep learning in computer vision.

It was her who first allowed AI to truly learn to "see" through massive, standardized images.

Identifying objects, distinguishing between people, animals, cars, roads, and scenes; without her work, AI would still be blind.

However, she only occupies half a position on this cover.

On the far left is Su Zifeng, born in Taiwan, raised in the U.S., CEO of AMD.

She is also one of the few who can truly compete with Nvidia on the fundamental computing power level.

Under her leadership, AMD has transformed from a marginalized chip company back to the main stage of high-performance computing and AI chips.

Sam Altman and Mark Zuckerberg are well-known; Hassabis is a Nobel laureate.

It’s worth mentioning the second person from the right,

Dario Amodei,

founder and CEO of @AnthropicAI.

This guy joined Baidu’s artificial intelligence team ten years ago as an AI research scientist.

Baidu, as always, failed to seize this opportunity for a curve overtaking.

If they could have retained this guy, why bother with Du Xiaoman or unmanned taxis?

This cover pays tribute to that famous photo from 1932:

Lunch atop a Skyscraper

symbolizes: the industrial era, when humanity first stood at the edge of steel and urban civilization.

And today’s cover expresses:

Humanity has officially entered the era of AI as "basic productive force."
