An artificial intelligence festival for developers, with forums, exhibitions and the debuts of AI models, tools and hardware, will open in Shanghai later this month.

More than 30,000 developers from over 100 developer communities, are expected to attend.
Speakers will share their visions and communicate with developers in around a dozen forums, a two-day exhibition and many face-to-face panels.
