On the afternoon of April 14, at the XPeng AI sharing session, XPeng Motors' autonomous driving lead Li Liyun stated that the core issue of autonomous driving is a "complex physical AI" problem, and AI cars are the first step towards embodied intelligence.

Li Liyun believes that more importantly, autonomous driving is a product that needs to be mass-produced for users, meeting consumer demands for functionality and experience while ensuring safety and avoiding collisions, making autonomous driving a challenging yet interesting embodied problem.

He Xiaopeng pointed out that XPeng insists on full-stack self-research and last year pioneered the path of reinforcement learning and model distillation in the field of autonomous driving, training a super large-scale physical world model, which no other car company in China has achieved.
