Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun has predicted that the next five years will bring a major shift in manufacturing powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Lei highlighted the electric vehicle plant run by Xiaomi as a clear sign of the transformation in progress. Large die-cast car parts usually require slow manual inspection, which often leads to mistakes. 

The company has replaced this step with an X-ray system paired with an AI vision model that completes a full inspection in two seconds. Lei described this upgrade as a clear example of how intelligent systems raise factory performance, but also noted that no single company can build this market alone. Instead, he expects long-term growth to depend on partnerships and shared engineering platforms across the sector.
