China's "AI Plus initiative" was first introduced in last year's government work report, signaling the country's commitment to integrating deep artificial intelligence (AI) into various sectors. This ambitious plan, known as the 'AI+' initiative, aims to revolutionize scientific research by harnessing the power of AI to drive innovation and efficiency.
In an exclusive conversation with Wang Jian, a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee and the Chinese Academy of Engineering, insights were shared regarding the potential impact of this initiative. Wang Jian emphasized that the 'AI+' initiative is not just about technological advancement but also about fostering collaboration across different industries to solve complex problems.
The integration of AI into sectors such as healthcare, finance, and environmental management is expected to streamline processes, enhance data analysis, and lead to breakthroughs that were previously unattainable. By promoting the adoption of AI technologies, China is positioning itself at the forefront of global scientific research and technological innovation.
The 'AI+' initiative also highlights the importance of ethical AI development, ensuring that advancements are made responsibly and sustainably. Wang Jian noted that with the right policies and collaborative efforts, AI can significantly contribute to societal progress and economic growth.
