On August 28, at the AGIC Conference held at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center, wan AIChef made a stunning debut with its flagship product—the wan AIChef Kitchen Intelligence System—becoming the world’s first kitchen intelligence product to fully leverage core AI technologies.

The launch of the wan AIChef Kitchen Intelligence System marks a groundbreaking advancement for AI technology in the culinary field. Guided by the philosophy of "Smart Technology for People, Supporting Every Home," it aims to make cooking simple, fun, and convenient, allowing everyone to enjoy the services of a personal chef.

At the conference, Wang Ning, Director of the Operations Center at wan AIChef, elaborated on the development初衷, technical principles, and core features of the Kitchen Intelligence System. Wang Ning emphasized that the charm of artificial intelligence lies in its ability to understand user needs and take over tasks like thinking, filtering, learning, and decision-making. Compared to traditional kitchen tools, the wan AIChef Kitchen Intelligence System features personalized learning and adaptability to user habits, achieving true machine autonomy.

After four years of dedicated effort, the wan AIChef team consulted over 100 renowned chefs, studied more than 1,000 home-style recipes, and conducted over 1 million iterations of cooking data training, ultimately developing the wan AIChef Zhurong Cooking Model. This Kitchen Intelligence System truly realizes the dream of machines replacing human chefs, laying a solid foundation for the future of smart kitchens.
