SHANGHAI: Shanghai aims to accelerate the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and manufacturing in the coming years, a move expected to boost new industrialisation, strengthen new quality productive forces, and position China as a global leader in intelligent manufacturing, experts say.
An implementation plan to accelerate the development of “AI+Manufacturing” was announced on Tuesday by the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatisation, along with the Shanghai Municipal Development and Reform Commission and Shanghai’s municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.
