Xiaomi's MiMo large model leader Luo Fuli: AI creates new things through "self-evolution"

At the AI Open Source Frontier Forum of the 2026 Zhongguancun Forum Annual Meeting, Luo Fuli, the head of Xiaomi's MiMo large model, said that the biggest development change of AI in the coming year is the "self-evolution" that has been considered somewhat "fantasy" in the past. "A year ago, I thought that it would take 3-5 years for large models to achieve 'self-evolution', but now I think it can be completed in 1-2 years," Luo Fuli said. "This is expected to accelerate scientific research in the academic field exponentially."
