Strengthen the collaborative development of artificial intelligence common technology research and development and industrialization

CCTV News:"The new generation of information technology represented by 5G is deeply integrated with important areas of the real economy such as manufacturing, transportation and tourism." On the afternoon of April 20th, the State Council held a press conference on the development of industry and informatization in the first quarter. When answering questions, the heads of relevant departments said that they would make good use of the golden key of integration and application to carry out the action of strengthening computing infrastructure, improve the supply level of basic software and hardware and core electronic components, and strengthen the coordinated development of common technology research and development of artificial intelligence and industrialization.

"The information and communication industry is a strategic, basic and leading industry that supports economic and social development." Zhao Zhiguo, chief engineer of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, director of the Information and Communication Administration, and spokesperson, believes that in recent years, with the in-depth implementation of the strategy of strengthening the country by network and digital China, the quality supply of information and communication has been greatly improved, and the integration with national economic and social development has been deepened. Mainly presents three characteristics:

The first is to empower the development of the real economy at a deeper level.The new generation of information technology represented by 5G is deeply integrated with important areas of the real economy such as manufacturing, transportation and tourism.Recently, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism jointly issued a policy document on 5G smart tourism, actively expanding the new space for tourism development. The penetration of 5G and artificial intelligence into the core control links of production has been accelerated, and the construction of 5G factories has been accelerated in an all-round way, which has brought profound changes to the production mode and production form of manufacturing industry.

The second is to help build a digital society at a higher level. Smart medical care accelerated its landing.In the pilot project of "5G+ medical health" application, more than 80% have completed 5G network coverage.. The effectiveness of wisdom education has begun to show.The application of 5G in remote interactive teaching, vocational training and other scenarios continues to deepen.. The construction of digital villages has been steadily advanced, and recently a number of departments have jointly issued policy documents.Empowering rural construction, governance and industrial development with digitalization is accelerating.. The efficiency of digital government governance services has been significantly enhanced.

The third is to promote the improvement of people’s lives on a wider scale. Mobile Internet applications are booming, with a number of 2.61 million, involving apps used in study, work and life, which greatly facilitates people’s lives. Carry out the activities of "information consumption helps rural revitalization", build a good exchange and interaction platform for urban and rural areas, and drive farmers to increase their income. Digital technology has achieved remarkable results in adapting to aging, basically meeting the most prominent and urgent digital life needs of the elderly over 60 years old. In the first quarter, the national online retail sales reached 3.3 trillion yuan, up 8.6% year-on-year.

He also introduced that this year is the closing year of several three-year action plans, such as "Double Gigabit" network coordinated development, 5G application "Sailing" and new data center development. The next step will be to make good use of the golden key of integration and application on the basis of fully completing the closing task, and continuously release the industry empowerment effect.

First, strengthen the supply of new technologies and new products, and build strong integration to empower the "main engine".Carry out strong computing and empowerment actions for computing infrastructure, and promote cloud-side collaboration and integration of computing, storage and transportation. Focus on key areas such as 5G and integrated circuits, and improve the supply level of basic software and hardware and core electronic components. Strengthen the collaborative development of artificial intelligence common technology research and development and industrialization.

The second is to strengthen application guidance in key industries and create a "main position" for integration and empowerment. Implement 5G large-scale application projects, guide the release of 5G industry construction guidelines, and promote the in-depth development of industry applications. Guide the national artificial intelligence innovation and application pilot area to open typical application scenarios and drive iterative upgrading of technologies and products.

The third is to promote the development of large, medium and small enterprises, and forge and integrate to empower the "main force." Cultivate a number of chain-leading enterprises with ecological dominance, small giant enterprises with specialization and novelty, and single champion enterprises in manufacturing industry to form a gradient development pattern.Encourage large enterprises to build digital platforms and share data resources and capabilities for small and medium-sized enterprises.To lower the threshold for the transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises.
