Augmented Creativity
Art, architecture, academia, science, music, and more…the enriching beauty of creativity takes many forms. Today, the confluence of AI and other emerging technologies is forging a new paradigm of creativity, one in which scientific discovery will accelerate, innovation will be within the grasp of the many, and artistic creation will be possible for all.

Trial & Error Innovation
The process of innovation is full of experimentation and false starts. As there are no predetermined paths to success, it’s crucial to understand how to manage risk and improve success rates. Countless forks tend to punctuate the research pathway and it’s not uncommon for a team to spend decades on a single project. This partly explains why Nobel Prize winners are often well advanced in their careers.
Today’s explorers may find the keys for unlocking the future in the shape of algorithms trained with massive datasets and smart devices applied in every area of life. Using these keys, the time we spend on experimentation can be greatly reduced and success rates dramatically increased. As more people have access to the tools for creativity, we will go reach past innovation and empower mass innovation.
Protecting IPR & Encouraging Creativity
The protection of intellectual property (IP) is the foundation of the innovation economy. However, the mechanisms for IP protection still need to be improved. As the Internet becomes more advanced, the volume of content is growing explosively. Duplicated content from unknown sources may represent violations of IP but such violations are hard to identify. Much stronger protections are needed for the rights of content creators.
It is also possible that fake news reports may be created using AI, and we will need to rely on AI to identify and eliminate them. AI generates text using probability-based algorithms to choose words and phrases. Therefore, systems can use these same rules to detect articles written by AI, and to weed out fake news reports or stories that are not properly sourced. Supporting original content will encourage the healthy development of media outlets, more in-depth articles and insights, and more investigative reporting by professional journalists. AI technologies can protect journalists who advocate for integrity, independence, and quality.
AI-inspired Creativity
As intelligent applications expand in the creative sector and intelligent devices become ubiquitous, everyone will be able to capture the inspiration they find in the world around them and incorporate it into their own creations with the help of AI. In February 2019, Huawei unveiled a unique version of the Symphony No. 8 in London, complete at last. Lucas Cantor, a US film composer, analyzed 90 Schubert songs and some other works that influenced the young composer, then fed this input into an AI system on his smartphone. With the help of the Dual-Neural Processing Unit (NPU) AI accelerator embedded in his smartphone, Cantor produced a new ending. Every note in the new parts of the last two movements was generated by the AI, but the unique style of Schubert could be clearly identified in the melodies and harmonies of the new piece. AI technology offers these opportunities to anyone who wants to create something new, while retaining the spirit of past great works. Once again, classical music can become a vital, innovative artform.
In the future, everyone will nurture and grow their ideas through platforms that support their creativity, then transform their ideas into concrete works. Before long, machines will be helping all of us make our dreams come true.

Story Behind SafetyZone: Prepare for Disasters with VR Games

Zhao Yiran is a third-year software engineering student at Sichuan University, China. He is also the developer of SafetyZone, a virtual reality (VR) app that educates people about disasters which was launched on AppGallery on September 3. Zhao is just one of the many participants in the HUAWEI Student Developers program who are turning brilliant ideas into reality through lines of code. These students will join developers from around the world in sharing the fun of programming at HUAWEI DEVELOPER CONFERENCE 2020 (Together) from September 10 to 12.

The story of SafetyZone has its roots in field research. In 2019, Zhao and his classmates visited Xide County, Sichuan Province, where frequent mudslides pose serious threats to safety and property. After this visit, he decided to develop an app to help protect local residents from such natural disasters.
Inspired by Huawei's AR/VR App Innovation Contest, Zhao came up with the idea of creating a VR app to provide disaster simulations that bring to life the anxiety and stress we would feel in a real-life disaster. He also planned to design some games in the app that would allow users to learn life-saving skills in a fun and interactive way.
Zhao's confidence in turning his idea into a real app was boosted by the powerful VR Engine provided by HMS Core, which allowed him to put his ideas into practice. He set up a team of 12 and divided members into three groups, responsible for game scripts, 3D modeling, and programming, respectively.
Thanks to the team's joint efforts, the app was born. Zhao named it "SafetyZone", hoping it can help people stay safe when natural disasters strike.
The app provides real-world simulations for three typical disaster scenarios in mountain regions: mudslides, mountain floods, and landslides. Users can choose to participate as a principal, teacher, or student.
When playing the VR games, users will perceive the surrounding environment with the help of visual and audio indicators and use a controller to complete missions and sidequests, such as selecting an escape route, or responding to a person or item they encounter in the game. After the game ends, the app automatically generates a performance evaluation to help players review their escape skills and improve risk awareness.
"After connecting to Huawei VR Engine, latency is reduced and VR effects are clearer and smoother. It also offers a more comfortable gaming experience for users." said Zhao.
During the app's development, Huawei technology experts worked with Zhao's team to overcome difficulties in creating special effects for mudslides. Huawei also provided VR Glass and mobile phones to help them make the quick shift from 3D to the VR version of the game.
SafetyZone has been shortlisted for the Huawei Shining-Star Program and awarded with the Shining-Star Student Innovation Incentive.
Given that there are many other disaster-stricken mountain areas like Xide County, Zhao and his team are working on a way to improve user experience and include a wider range of disaster scenarios, so that the app can play an important role in raising awareness about disasters.
Zhao outlined his ambitions for the app: "We hope that with the global distribution capability of Huawei's HMS ecosystem, SafetyZone will bring the benefits of technology and knowledge of preparing for disasters to more people around the world, and reduce the damage caused by mountain disasters."

Understanding Customers
Companies are now using intelligent technologies to help them design innovative business models. Service providers have always had access to surface-level data, like customer buying habits, but soon they will be able to dig deeper into information like user emotions and personality. They can find online and offline information about a customer's career, interests, preferences, and social attitudes, and this vivid profile of the customer provides high-quality input data for AI algorithms, which can uncover the customer's real and hidden needs.
In the manufacturing industry, as vendors gain a deeper understanding of the real needs of end users. they can develop products that better satisfy the needs of the brand-name firms that sell their products and increase their own value within the supply chain by identifying and recommending new business opportunities.
Inclusive Communication
StorySign is an app that helps deaf children to read using AI technologies such as image recognition and optical character recognition. When a user scans a page from a story book, the StorySign app shows a cartoon signer who signs the words. Currently, StorySign can translate texts into 10 different sign languages: British (BSL), Irish (ISL), Dutch (NGT), Flemish (VGT), Italian (LSI), Spanish/Catalan (LSE & LSC), French (LSF), Portuguese (LGP), Swiss German (DSGS), and German (DGS). More languages will be added in the future. AI devices and software will allow the speech or hearing impaired to engage and contribute on an equal footing.
Understanding Product/Service Providers
Conflicts between patients and doctors eat up 6% of hospital efficiency every year, and 75% of doctors and nurses report that they have been subject to physical or verbal attacks caused by problems in communication. An AI assistant could interpret a doctor's prescription in layman's terms to make it easier for patients to understand. This will allow patients to feel more certainty about the health issues they face, their risks, treatment plans, and the expected effects. Doctor-patient interaction can be smoother and calmer, without the stress of complex terminology.
After receiving a prescription, AI tools can also help patients understand what the doctor has given them, confirm that it is the right drug for them, check for any alternative therapies, and calculate the correct dosage for their current condition. For the elderly and other patients who need support, these tools can make sure that drugs are taken on time, in the correct dose, without any confusion.
Borderless Communication
AI-enabled translation devices can help people speaking different languages communicate very effectively. The combination of human plus AI translators makes for a much more effective team: Together, they can achieve 95% accuracy with 0% omissions. The ability to communicate across language barriers is vital for big companies and organizations that now work around the world, with people speaking every different language on the planet. Translation devices with inbuilt specialist domain knowledge will be a boon that breaks down the barriers to communication in commerce, charity, government, and academic settings, enabling everyone to forget the friction and focus on their work.
