As artificial intelligence reshapes industries across the board, the value of data is indisputable. Raw data alone, however, does not make machines “intelligent.” The critical process that turns vast, unstructured data into information machines can understand and learn from is data annotation.

From December 4–5, 2025, the 2025 New Energy and Intelligent Connected Vehicles IP Innovation Summit (NIIPS 2025) was successfully held in Shanghai.

Yet beneath the rapid technological advances lies a deeper question that receives far less attention: if the AI bubble bursts, how will an industry so tightly bound to it respond? Perhaps now is the moment to step away from the noise and think clearly.
