The 2025 World Internet Conference brought together six rising giants – dubbed the 'Six Little Dragons of AI' – hailing from across Chinas booming tech scene. Unitree, BrainCo, GroupCore, DEEP Robotics, Game Science and DeepSeek joined a first-of-its-kind group dialogue to spotlight how far the Chinese mainland's AI sector has come.
Highlights ranged from Unitrees outdoor robots resilient enough to tackle rough terrain, to BrainCos thought-controlled prosthetics that could redefine mobility. DeepSeek teased an open-source Artificial General Intelligence platform, while GroupCores spatial intelligence systems showed promise for smart cities. DEEP Robotics highlighted robust field robots ready for real-world applications, and Game Science sparked conversation with the global cultural impact of "Black Myth: Wukong."
Beyond demos, participants dove into the sectors pain points: data bottlenecks slowing algorithms, steep technical barriers demanding more R&D, and the ripple effect of AI on tomorrows workforce. As BrainCos BCI breakthroughs edge closer to reality, the dialogue underscored both excitement and caution across industries.
