Zhou Hongyi, the founder of 360 Group, stated on September 15 at the 5th China Satellite Navigation Conference that he will no longer invest in the new energy vehicle sector. He noted that he has already experienced losses in this industry.

During his keynote speech, Zhou emphasized the importance of security in the development of the BeiDou navigation system. He proposed a strategy called 'using models to govern models' to address security risks as BeiDou applications become more intelligent and widespread.

Zhou argued that as cybersecurity enters an era of 'AI versus AI,' human oversight is no longer sufficient. He advocates for using advanced AI agents to detect vulnerabilities, counter automated attacks, and supervise other intelligent systems within the infrastructure.

Beyond cybersecurity, Zhou advised entrepreneurs to master AI agents. He introduced the concept of 'silicon-based leadership,' which involves managing multiple agents, building them, and establishing corporate knowledge bases.

Concluding his remarks, Zhou reiterated that he is shifting his focus away from automotive investments. He believes that artificial intelligence and embodied intelligence currently offer significantly greater opportunities for growth.
