Artificial intelligence rises to national strategy AI chip summit helps industry to land
Following the issuance of the “New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan” by the State Council in 2017 and the “Three-Year Action Plan for Promoting the Development of a New Generation of Artificial Intelligence Industry” issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, artificial intelligence has once again been highly valued by the party and the government.
On October 31, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held the ninth collective study on the status and trends of artificial intelligence development. Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, emphasized that artificial intelligence is an important driving force for a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation. Accelerating the development of a new generation of artificial intelligence is related to whether China can seize a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation opportunities. Strategic issues.
At the industrial level, artificial intelligence innovation enterprises are constantly emerging, the application of artificial intelligence technology and products is everywhere, the scale of industrial investment and development is expanding, and the demand for AI chips is also rapidly increasing. Market research firmly predicts that by 2023, the global AI chip market will reach $10.8 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of 53.6%. In China, the AI chip carries the expectation of overtaking in the corner of the integrated circuit industry, and has been promoted and supported by the government from the top down.
However, with the continuous development of the domestic AIOT industry and changes in the external environment, some problems have also emerged. For example, the innovation and development of China's integrated circuit technology still lags behind that of developed countries.
