Recently, the official launch ceremony for the "Artificial Intelligence" special stamp set was held at the Shijingshan Humanoid Robot Data Training Center.

This four-stamp set adopts a techno-aesthetic approach to illustrate the panorama of artificial intelligence, tracing its journey from its inception to its future potential. In a groundbreaking move, silicon-based materials have been integrated into the specialized ink for the first time to create these stamps, achieving a seamless fusion of artistic design language and cutting-edge printing technologies.

The four stamps are described as follows:

"Dawn of the Intelligent Era": Tracing back to the Dartmouth Workshop in 1956, the stamp features three-dimensional "AI" lettering as its centerpiece. An optically variable ink technique, used here for the first time, creates a fluid play of light and shadow as the stamp is turned. Under ultraviolet light, it further reveals a striking dual-scene effect on a single stamp.

"Convergence of Data and Intelligence": Focusing on large language models, this stamp features a network diagram integrating elements of laser-like, flowing light to visually demonstrate the global flow of data and the intelligent ecosystem of the Internet of Everything.

"Embodied AI": Transcending the boundaries between the virtual and physical worlds, this stamp integrates relevant patterns, such as those of a humanoid robot, a drone, and an autonomous vehicle. Enhanced by a metallic texture achieved through cold foil printing, it vividly showcases artificial intelligence's infinite potential as it takes root in the physical world.

"Harmonious Coexistence": Featuring a symmetrical composition of a human brain and a mechanical head, this stamp leverages the tactile, three-dimensional texture of embossing to interpret the deep convergence of carbon-based lifeforms and silicon-based intelligence.
