Ali cloud announced through the official microblogging, based on Ali cloud intelligent computing platform, Xiaopeng car in Ulanqab built the largest domestic autonomous driving wisdom calculation center “Fuyu”, dedicated to self-driving model training.
This afternoon, the founder and chairman of Xiaopeng Automotive, He Xiaopeng tweeted: “With the launch of Xiaopeng’s ‘Fuyu’ intelligent computing center, the arithmetic boost to autonomous driving in simulation training, I believe that in 2025 Xiaopeng Automotive will start to remove the word auxiliary in automatic assisted driving and enter the real era of autonomous driving. the era of automatic driving.”
He Xiaopeng believes that any intelligent car company today, future intelligence must be self-research, and therefore will put forward very high requirements for arithmetic power, arithmetic power cost will rise from today’s billion level to the future billion level. The strong coupling between Xiaopeng and Ali cloud in the algorithm and arithmetic power is a necessary path.
The company has also released several test videos of its urban NGP, including urban road tests (turnaround, red light recognition, lane change detour, large vehicle handling, low-speed following judgment, etc.), road tests in extreme weather environments (dark and heavy rain), etc. He said he would cover all-weather scenarios as much as possible during the test phase, so that the product would receive all-round polishing and thus tend to higher The company also said on July 28 that the final push of the urban NGP is not far away.
The “Fuyao” arithmetic power of the Xiaopeng Auto Autonomous Driving Intelligence Center can reach 600 PFLOPS, increasing the training speed of the core Xiaopeng Autonomous Driving model by 170 times, increasing the utilization of GPU resource virtualization by 3 times, and reducing the end-to-end communication latency to 2 microseconds.
