On the afternoon of June 21, the Shanghai Municipal Government Information Office held a municipal government press conference to introduce the 2021 World Artificial Intelligence Conference to be held in Shanghai from July 8th to 10th. Zhu Xiumei, deputy director of the Science and Technology Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will continue to work closely with Shanghai and relevant departments to support the World Artificial Intelligence Conference as a top global event in the field of artificial intelligence, and leverage this high-quality platform to further expand its opening to the outside world and continue to open up. A new situation of win-win cooperation in the field of smart economy. Zhu Xiumei said at the press conference that Shanghai has a solid industrial foundation, rich innovation resources, and obvious advantages in artificial intelligence talents, data, application scenarios, etc., and is accelerating towards the goal of building an artificial intelligence highland. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology attaches great importance to and continues to support the innovative development of Shanghai’s artificial intelligence industry. On the one hand, coordinate the construction of a pilot area for artificial intelligence innovation applications. In May 2019, Shanghai (Pudong New Area) was approved to become my country’s first artificial intelligence pilot area, promoting the construction of a pilot area focusing on mechanism reform and innovative applications. Through special funds for high-quality development, support the pilot area to build a public service platform serving AI companies, and support the pilot area to continue to improve the industrial agglomeration effect and enterprise service capabilities. On the other hand, it supports Shanghai to consolidate the foundation for the development of the smart industry. Support Shanghai to build a national manufacturing innovation center such as integrated circuits and smart sensors, and strengthen key common technological innovations in the smart field. Promote the National Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund, increase support for key integrated circuit projects and enterprises, continue to consolidate the foundation for industrial development, and provide support for the establishment of a safe and stable artificial intelligence industry chain. In addition, jointly promote the work related to the release of artificial intelligence. Zhu Xiumei said that Shanghai companies actively participated in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s artificial intelligence unveiling work. After two years of fair competition, many Shanghai companies have performed well and won in the relevant unveiling track. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology supported the construction and opening of a number of artificial intelligence application scenarios in Shanghai, established “tracks” and test environments for the launch of medical imaging and driverless driving, and supported the Shanghai Industrial Internet Innovation Center to participate in the evaluation of the launch project, and actively promote the Shanghai AI evaluation Capacity and evaluation institution building. As for the World Artificial Intelligence Conference, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, as a co-sponsor, has been fully supporting the preparations for the conference. The first is to organize the key forums of the conference. Organize subordinate units to jointly organize industry development forums with Shanghai Zhangjiang Group, China Business News and others, and invite representatives from all parties in the industry chain to share experiences around AI to empower all industries and promote digital transformation. Organize the affiliated units to host the Trusted AI Forum, invite international organizations and related experts to conduct in-depth discussions on the formulation of governance rules and international standards, and jointly explore diversified trusted AI measures to promote the sustainable development of the industry. The second is to release a series of important results. At this conference, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will combine the new trends and requirements of industrial development to organize relevant research institutions to release the latest research results such as the “Trusted Artificial Intelligence White Paper” and “Artificial Intelligence Data Security and Regulatory Mechanism Research Report” to provide intelligence for the development of the intelligent industry stand by. Third, during the conference, awards will be given to some of the winners of the list to encourage continuous innovation, and the Shanghai Economic and Information Commission will promote the application of outstanding results of the list to form industrialization capabilities. At the same time, he also assisted in inviting key enterprises and high-level experts in the field of artificial intelligence to participate in the exhibition to share the achievements and experience of innovative development.
