vivo Blue Heart Intelligence: Redefining Phone Interaction, Delivering Ultimate AI Experience with the 3B Model

At the 2024 vivo Developer Conference, vivo officially unveiled its new AI strategy "Blue Heart Intelligence," showcasing a comprehensive upgrade to its self-developed Blue Heart large model matrix, OriginOS5, BlueOS2, and the latest advancements in security, humanization, and ecosystem collaboration. We had in-depth discussions with Zhou Wei, Vice President of vivo and Dean of vivo AI Global Research Institute, Huang Zixun, Product Director of vivoOS, and Xiong Guanj, Senior Director of vivo AI System Center, delving into how vivo explores the deep integration of AI large models with smartphones and the new experiences it offers users.

From Functional Benefits to Deep Fusion: Reconstructing the Mobile Operating System

Over the past year, vivo has witnessed significant changes in integrating AI with the mobile operating system. Initially, vivo focused on leveraging the functional advantages brought by large models directly, such as "remove bystanders" and "text-to-image." However, as time progressed, vivo's thinking shifted toward deeper fusion of large models with smartphones to create new value. This fusion has led to a complete reconstruction of OriginOS5.

In terms of interaction, OriginOS5 supports long-press, drag-and-drop, and new voice functionality, enabling recognition of various dialects and multiple languages while offering clear expression. The digital world has also been thoroughly reconstructed, introducing intelligent agents, restructuring standard text-to-text and text-to-image editing capabilities, and building an intent insight framework. This framework analyzes time, space, location, behavior, habits, and events to provide intent insights, assisting decision-making. Moreover, vivo has developed PhoneGPT, enabling proactive intelligence that allows the phone to operate like a human, further enhancing the user experience.

Leading the Formulation of Intelligent Agent Standards: vivo's Industry Responsibility

vivo actively leads in formulating standards related to smartphone intelligent agents, which holds great significance in unifying industry understanding of these agents. The standard covers various critical dimensions, including the agent's perception, decision-making, and execution capabilities, with privacy security considered a crucial aspect. PhoneGPT, as one of vivo's achievements, has achieved a four-star certification under this standard framework. It can comprehensively execute and resolve user requests while ensuring the safety and trustworthiness of the execution process.

The 3B Model: Pursuing the Ultimate User Experience

vivo has delved deep into optimizing model local execution. From 1B, 7B to 13B, vivo continuously explores the limits of model-side execution. Ultimately, vivo has chosen the 3B model, achieving comprehensive optimization in performance, power consumption, and other aspects, reaching an ultimate user experience. While physically smaller, the 3B model's capabilities meet user demands and are at the forefront of the industry.

vivo determines the application scope of the 3B model based on device configuration. For example, devices with 12GB of RAM can support the 3B model. For old device upgrades, this year's 3B model size has significantly reduced to 1.5G and is built into the flagship OriginOS5. For older users, a phased update plan will be implemented based on device compatibility with 3B, ensuring users can gradually experience new features.

vivo no longer pursues an upper limit on model size but focuses more on the upper limit of experience. Talking about model size without considering user experience is meaningless, as large models can lead to memory and battery life consumption, hindering user experience improvement.

Adhering to Self-Research and Long-Term Vision: vivo's Differentiation Strategy

The current smartphone market is intensely competitive, especially in the AI phone domain. vivo deeply understands the need for differentiation in this competition. vivo insists on self-researching large models, believing this can make interactions more natural and intuitive. Additionally, vivo upholds a long-term vision, focusing on delivering exceptional AI phone experiences first, remaining optimistic about future monetization.

vivo believes the real user pain points lie in delivering better experiences within existing scenarios. New experiences brought by new technologies can bring users joy or satisfaction, such as users becoming accustomed to the functionality of Blue Heart XiaoV or AI writing tools. This reflects vivo's accurate grasp of user pain points and the value of technology applications.

Based on original thinking, vivo balances sensibility and rationality in product innovation. On the emotional side, it aims to provide users with warmth, elegance, and comfort; on the rational side, it pursuits simpler, efficient solutions, such as large models proactively comparing prices for users, boosting efficiency. In the future, vivo will pursue a more personalized and automated AI direction, not only evident in AI assistants but also in the deep integration of the entire system. This direction will provide users with better services, further enhancing the competitiveness of vivo products.

vivo's Unique Definition of AI Phones: Reconstructing Interaction, Building Platforms, Standardizing Capabilities

vivo has its unique definition of AI phones. vivo believes AI phones need to reconstruct the entire phone interaction mode, making it more natural and intuitive; reconstruct the digital service experience, building intelligent agent platforms and service intent platforms; reconstruct certain capability centers, making some capabilities public and standardized, preparing for the industry; ultimately serving people.

The launch of the "Blue Heart Intelligence" strategy signifies vivo's further exploration in the AI field, showcasing its profound insights into the development trends of smartphones. vivo will continuously explore the deep integration of AI with smartphones, delivering a more intelligent, convenient, and user-friendly mobile experience, leading the smartphone industry into a new phase of development.
