Dong Mingzhu: Gree Electric to Collaborate with DeepSeek R1 Large Model

According to the latest reports, Dong Mingzhu, Chairwoman of Gree Electric Appliances, disclosed a significant technological advancement last night. Gree Electric has successfully integrated its proprietary multi-model framework with the full version of the DeepSeek R1 large model. This groundbreaking collaboration marks an important step forward for Gree in the smart home sector.

Dong Mingzhu highlighted that the outcomes of this deep integration are already evident in Gree's voice-controlled air conditioning products. By leveraging the deep learning capabilities of DeepSeek R1, Gree's air conditioners have not only transitioned from traditional voice assistants to true artificial intelligence but also gained efficient reasoning and decision-making abilities. More importantly, these air conditioning units can seamlessly connect with all smart devices in a home, offering users a more convenient and intelligent living experience.

When discussing Gree Electric's future strategic direction in the AI field, Dong Mingzhu stated that the company plans to develop a specialized large vertical model for Gree's smart homes based on models like DeepSeek. Gree will further promote the deep integration of AI technologies such as image and voice recognition with home appliances, focusing on creating AI-driven management modes across various scenarios including energy management, air quality optimization, security assurance, and lighting control. This will provide users with more personalized and intelligent home solutions.

In addition, the recent renaming of many Gree Electric appliance stores to "Dong Mingzhu Health Home" has drawn considerable attention. In response, Dong Mingzhu explained that this name change aims to leverage her personal reputation to transform "trust traffic" into "quality awareness." She emphasized that Gree’s extensive industry chain covers consumer appliances, smart equipment, industrial products, and other fields, which heavily rely on big data and AI support. Currently, Gree has been implementing digital management for over a decade, accumulating rich experience and technical advantages.

Gree Electric's series of initiatives not only demonstrate its leading position in the smart home sector but also highlight its commitment to quality and innovation. In the future, with the continuous development of AI technology and the growing maturity of the smart home market, Gree Electric is expected to bring more surprises and conveniences to its users.
