Tencent CEO Acknowledges Challenges in AI Development

During Tencent's shareholder meeting, Chairman and CEO Pony Ma provided a candid response to external skepticism regarding Tencent's progress in artificial intelligence. According to ChainCatcher, Ma likened the company's journey to boarding a ship only to find it leaking, and now standing on it without being fully seated, expressing a desire for faster progress. Ma acknowledged the company's challenges in the AI sector, using humor to describe the current situation as being on board but not yet stable. He emphasized that while Tencent may not be the fastest in seizing opportunities, it is committed to following the right path, leveraging its unique strengths methodically. Ma noted that the company avoids hastily encroaching on others' territories, a strategy that has previously led to failures.
