At 6:30 a.m., the alarm clock for Jiaxing residents is rarely a jarring chime anymore, but a gradually brightening light and softly rolling curtains. Having monitored your breathing cadence and body turns all night, the smart mattress adjusts to the most relaxing angle just as you wake. In the kitchen, a robotic arm is already retrieving fresh ingredients, lighting the burner, and tossing the wok; freshly ground soy milk and steamed dumplings are ready just as you finish washing up.

This is not a storyboard from science fiction. At the 2026 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit (Nov 2–5), the 1,500 m² 'AI Carnival' Super Experience Pavilion in Hall B orchestrated a 24-hour journey across smart homes, intelligent workplaces, future cities, Jiaxing smart manufacturing, and digital recreation.

Stepping into the pavilion reveals not cold technology, but vibrant human warmth: the aroma and sizzle of freshly stir-fried dishes waft through the glass seals. Visitors encircle the glass booth with cameras ready, while some sit down directly to taste hot meals prepared fresh by the robot.

FUTURE REALITY9-Square-Meter Transparent Kitchen Draws Global Attention

In the exhibition hall, a compact 9-square-meter cabin drew widespread attention. Through panoramic glass, a robust robotic arm deftly picks ingredients, controls high-heat wok tossing, plates dishes, and initiates automatic self-cleaning—smoothly orchestrating multiple orders at the same time.

“From order placement to dish pickup takes around five minutes. With multiple woks running concurrently, a fresh dish emerges roughly every minute.” — Wang Rui, General Manager of Jialin Intelligent

AIKO represents homegrown tech born and raised in Jiaxing, appearing alongside 49 local innovators and 16 national industry leaders. At the adjoining 'Jiaxing Lounge', industrial roadmaps for intelligent connected vehicles and smart wearables were showcased alongside world-famous local textiles, allowing visiting partners to experience regional warmth right after high-tech negotiations. Breakthroughs like these are converting visions of tomorrow into tangible daily routines.

SMART MOBILITYConnected Roads & Embodied Robots Take to the Streets

Commuting in future Jiaxing requires no personal driving. Tongxiang deployed Level 4 autonomous transit buses weaving through heritage streets, while the Hangzhou-Tongxiang-Deqing alliance piloted integrated 'Vehicle-Road-Cloud' infrastructure that turns 'cars waiting for lights' into 'lights adapting for cars'. In the Future City arena, flagship embodied humanoids like AgiBot Expedition A3Ultra were surrounded by curious citizens testing joint flexibility and asking when they could bring one home.

SMART WORKPLACEMainstream AI Agents Drive the Rise of 'Super Individuals'

Offices are transforming quietly. Popular enterprise AI agents such as Baidu Dazi and Tencent WorkBuddy demonstrated instant drafting, multi-language translation, and meeting summarization, freeing human talent for higher-order strategic judgment. Meanwhile at Jiaxing AIGC Industrial Park, agile 'super individuals' are using generative workflows to execute creative projects that previously required entire teams.

DIGITAL LEISUREAncient Water Towns Meet Robotic Street Vendors and Cyber Dogs

In twilight Wuzhen Xizha, tech charm blends seamlessly with ancient streets. SenseTime's fully autonomous Shaomai store saw steady queues as robotic grippers received, packed, and handed out piping hot snacks without manual aid. Deep Robotics quadruped dogs trotted rhythmically across historic cobblestones trailing delighted children, while Unitree humanoids danced gracefully with Hanfu roleplayers, giving visitors memorable interactive moments.

INDUSTRIAL FOUNDATIONA 71 Billion Industry & 118 EFLOPS Computing Backbone

These experiences are backed by robust industrial muscle. In the first three quarters of 2026, Jiaxing's core AI industry revenue reached 71 billion RMB (+26% YoY), with computing data services climbing 55%. Jiaxing's deployed computing capacity exceeds 118 EFLOPS (over 60% of Zhejiang Province), with another 197 EFLOPS under construction. Anchored by the 'Light of Wuzhen' National Supercomputing Center and Nanhu's pioneering Flexible Electronics Embodied AI Training Center, a complete chain from raw computing power to frontline culinary applications is closing.

FRONTIER LABSWuzhen Laboratory Cultivates Foundational Hardware for 2035

Looking further ahead, core building blocks shaping life in 2035 are developing at Wuzhen Laboratory, co-founded by Tongxiang and Tsinghua University. Demonstrations of glasses-free 3D holographic terminals showcased photorealistic digital avatars with meticulous shadow folds. Beyond software, the lab has incubated 23 high-level talent initiatives and over 80 commercial projects to bring deep tech into everyday homes.

THE ANSWER TO 2035A Blueprint Becoming Reality Through Wok Fire and Human Hands

Spanning 13 years since the inaugural Wuzhen Summit in 2014, the once-novel concept of connectivity has settled into familiar rhythm. Jiaxing's 'Day in 2035' is not an abstract prophecy, but a tangible blueprint coming alive. How will residents live in 2035? The answer is right here in Wuzhen's bustling exhibition halls, within the dancing wok fires of robotic arms, in autonomous shuttles gliding through water towns, and in the hands of creators turning blueprints into everyday reality.
