A symposium of comrades in charge of national industry and information technology authorities was held in Beijing on July 20. The conference pointed out that the real economy, especially the manufacturing industry, is the “main battleground” for artificial intelligence applications. It is necessary to enhance the sense of responsibility and urgency, focus on application leadership based on responsibility and position, thoroughly implement the “artificial intelligence+manufacturing” action, accelerate the development and application of the artificial intelligence industry, and accelerate the “intelligent upgrading” of thousands of industries. It is necessary to organize and implement artificial intelligence application service provider cultivation activities, fully implement the “Module-Digital Resonance” campaign, launch a number of lightweight, low-cost, and easy-to-deploy industry solutions, and lower the usage threshold for small and medium-sized enterprises. It is necessary to strengthen the supply of core technologies such as computing power, models, and data, speed up research on intelligent equipment, develop next-generation intelligent manufacturing, support iterative innovation in various smart consumer terminals, and promote the popularization of next-generation intelligent devices such as humanoid robots and brain-computer interfaces. It is necessary to strengthen the national AI open source community, gather and share open source resources such as high-quality models and data, step up efforts to develop and promote key standards, and build a strong security barrier for the development of the AI industry.
