Additionally, it anticipates significant progress in establishing a unified data factor market and aims to elevate computing power to exceed 300 exaflops.
In detailing specific action areas, the plan identifies eight major focuses: institutional innovation, local brand development, and the integration of 'AI Plus' applications.
In the first quarter of the year, China's digital industry achieved remarkable growth, generating a revenue of 8.5 trillion yuan (approximately 1.18 trillion U.S. dollars), marking a year-on-year increase of 9.4 percent.
The government’s work report for this year emphasized the urgency of accelerating digitalization across the manufacturing sector, nurturing a range of service providers with expertise in both the industry and digital realms, and enhancing support for the digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises.
