Foxconn Is Already a Generative AI Advocate
Likewise, Liu did not shy away from sharing Foxconn’s successes with generative AI. In his address, he noted that software alone, after being applied with AI, can do 80% of the work required to set up equipment for a new production run. It also does so faster than people. However, the AI can struggle without human assistance.
“We thought maybe we could replace every human. We quickly realized we could not.” – Young Liu
Not only does Foxconn already have its own gAI in place, but it doesn’t appear to be slowing down in implementing more. In fact, Liu announced that the company has now turned its attention to a manufacturing-centric model that will blend Meta’s Llama 3 and 4 models and data from Foxconn’s own operations, called “FoxBrain.”
Foxconn has also recently announced a new AI data center that it is building with NVIDIA, the world’s largest semiconductor company.
