This strategy outlined China's aims to become the world leader in AI by 2030, to monetise AI into a trillion-yuan
Since 2006, China has steadily developed a national agenda for artificial intelligence development and emerged as one of the leading nations in artificial intelligence research and development. During the late 2010s, China announced in its thirteenth Five-Year Plan its plans to become the global leading AI powerhouse by 2030, aiming to get the worth of its AI industry to over 1 trillion RMB by the same year.
China has broken down this goal into three stages, setting benchmarks for 2020, 2025, and 2030 respectively, as well as releasing a handful of policies, including 'Internet + AI' and 'New Generation AI Development Plan', to incentivize industry growth. Many estimate that China's AI development would contribute approximately 0.8% - 1.4% annual economic growth rate to China's economy.
China's central government has a list of a 'national AI team' including fifteen China-based companies, including Baidu, Tencent, Alibaba, SenseTime, and iFlytek. Each company is supposed to lead the development of a designated specialized AI sector in China, such as facial recognition, software/hardware, voice intelligence, and others. China's rapid AI development brought significant impacts to China's society in all aspects, including socio-economic, military, and political impacts. Agriculture, transportation, accommodation and food services, and manufacturing are the top industries that would be the most impacted by AI deployment.
