At the core of this solution lies CARLA, a sophisticated platform designed to simulate complex car sensor functionalities, including GPS, LIDAR, and accelerometers. CARLA facilitates precise simulations of various driving scenarios, such as nighttime driving and diverse weather conditions. This innovative approach allowed to fine-tune the algorithms and elevate the precision of the solution.
Ensuring the reliability and precision of CARLA's robust capabilities demands extensive machine learning training. Traditionally, GPUs have been the preferred choice for this task. However, in light of the current shortage of GPUs, Concept Reply pursued innovative alternatives. In this pursuit, Intel emerged as the perfect choice.
Intel stands as a prominent industry leader, shaping groundbreaking hardware, software, and service technologies. They specialize in embedding intelligence and AI across the entire spectrum of computing devices, from the cloud to the edge, thus unlocking the full potential of data.
This is what drew Concept Reply to Intel, in addition to the expert collaboration and perseverance to accomplish this goal. The result delivered a powerful solution that seamlessly integrates with cloud instances, optimized by Intel. This cutting-edge platform possesses the flexibility to dynamically scale, effortlessly accommodating varying numbers of vehicles during peak hours while efficiently conserving resources during quieter times and running with sustainable computing in mind.
By pioneering this AI-driven solution in collaboration with Intel, Concept Reply aims to set new benchmarks in autonomous vehicle safety. Beyond its application in self-driving cars, this solution also extends its benefits to individuals with color blindness or color vision deficiencies (CVD), contributing to safer roads for everyone.

Ant International Research Highlights How Readable AI Memories Can Unlock More Personalised, Privacy-conscious Consumer Experiences2.11.2026 09:52:00 CET | Press release
Human sales and customer representatives have institutional memories to serve clients: their preferences and choices. How can we build a memory mechanism for AI services to create similarly personalised experiences? Ant International’s research on this subject recently received the Senior Area Chair (SAC) Highlight Award from the Best Paper Committee at EMNLP 2026, a leading global AI conference. Why do we need “readable AI memory”? In this paper titled 'Text as a universal interface for transferable personalisation', we look into one fact: until now, AI memory of a user has usually been generated and stored as dense numerical code only the original system can interpret. Two long-standing problems with that: First, today's user profiles are "black boxes" — opaque code locked inside a single app, so activity in one service teaches nothing to another, and every product has to re-learn you from scratch. Second, profiles are welded to the model that created them, so they don't transfer whe
