Against the backdrop of accelerated global supply chain restructuring and in-depth integration of the digital economy, smart warehousing, as a core hub of the modern logistics system, is evolving from automated upgrades of individual links into a new phase of full-scenario intelligent collaboration. The Ministry of Commerce and seven other authorities have issued the Special Action Plan for Accelerating the Development of Digital and Intelligent Supply Chains, which clearly mandates the adoption of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, blockchain and other emerging technologies to advance the digital and intelligent transformation of supply chains, charting a clear course for industrial development.

Since 2026, the in-depth integration of cutting-edge technologies including large AI models, digital twins and embodied intelligence with warehousing and logistics scenarios has continuously reshaped the underlying industrial logic. It has achieved triple improvements in operational efficiency, accuracy and collaboration capabilities for logistics workflows, injecting strong momentum into enterprises’ cost reduction, efficiency improvement and core competitiveness enhancement. It also serves as a key measure to implement policy guidelines and boost high-quality development of the real economy.

At present, smart warehousing and logistics technologies have established a complete three-tier collaborative architecture of cloud-edge-terminal, essentially realizing the model of "digital brain driving physical execution". With software systems acting as the decision-making core, hardware devices as execution terminals, and IoT technology as the information link, the three parties work in synergy to break the efficiency bottlenecks of traditional warehousing, and build a closed-loop system featuring autonomous perception, intelligent decision-making and real-time execution, emerging as the core driving force for high-quality industrial growth. Nowadays, smart warehousing has gradually become standard equipment for manufacturing enterprises, e-commerce platforms and logistics companies, and achieved large-scale practical application across diverse industries.

Empowered by large AI models, warehousing is equipped with a "powerful intelligent brain", upgrading decision-making modes from data-driven operation to intelligent prediction. Unlike traditional AI systems restricted by fixed application scenarios, industrial large models applied in the warehousing sector in 2026 boast powerful generalization and cross-scenario reasoning capabilities. They are capable of processing PB-level production data and supporting simulation deduction and natural language interactive management in complex scenarios.

In practical operations, staff can inquire about inventory information and submit operational tasks via natural language. The system can automatically analyze anomalies such as cargo damage and wrong deliveries and propose targeted solutions. Meanwhile, it accurately forecasts inventory demand and optimizes storage strategies by analyzing multi-dimensional factors including historical sales data, market trends and promotional activities, effectively cutting idle capital occupation and enabling warehousing systems to think and judge independently.

Furthermore, the deep integration of large models and warehousing robots enables robots to go beyond simple pick-and-place operations. They can comprehend complex instructions and flexibly perform refined tasks such as sorting and categorization, greatly boosting operational flexibility and adaptability. This integrated application has been widely deployed in segmented sectors including pharmaceuticals and new energy, facilitating standardized, compliant and efficient industrial operations.
