[Caixin.com] "We cannot look only within the printing industry to see whether printing can uncover new growth, but we can provide more new added value, such as AI functions." On October 29, Jin Weidong, Global Vice President of HP Inc. and General Manager of Greater China for the Printing and Supplies Products Business Unit, told Caixin and other media that the trend of applying AI to traditional devices is inevitable. If a company cannot adapt to users' habits of adopting new technologies and remains merely in selling printing hardware and supplies, it will be eliminated by the times.

On the same day, HP (NYSE: HPQ) released 13 "AI Learning Printers" in Hangzhou. According to the HP launch event, the AI functions of these printers are implemented through the newly added "HP Print AI Academy" in HP's WeChat mini-program, which can use AI to give feedback on homework, organize wrong answers, and provide teaching aids, a printing template library, and printing resources. HP said that AI learning printers can make it more convenient to convert digital content into paper materials that can be read, written on, and practiced repeatedly.
