image source:official wechat account of institute of industrial artificial intelligence, chinese academy of sciences (preparatory committee)

according to nanjing daily, the "industrial artificial intelligence research institute of the chinese academy of sciences" recently published its first article on its wechat public account, recruiting management staff. the article revealed that the industrial artificial intelligence research institute of the chinese academy of sciences (industrial artificial intelligence research institute) is a newly established scientific research institution directly under the chinese academy of sciences, located in nanjing, jiangsu province.

the institute focuses on the deep integration of artificial intelligence and manufacturing, cultivates and develops new quality productivity, and is committed to becoming a leading scientific research institution and original innovation source and industrial technology radiation source in the field of intelligent manufacturing in my country. according to an article from the jiangsu metallurgical industry association, the chinese academy of sciences industrial artificial intelligence research institute (preparatory) is jointly established by the chinese academy of sciences, the people's government of jiangsu province and the people's government of nanjing city.

interpretation: at the end of last month, jiangsu held a press conference, and the provincial department of science and technology mentioned at the meeting that it would accelerate the construction of the chinese academy of sciences industrial artificial intelligence research institute to create a first-class artificial intelligence industry technological innovation highland. it is reported that the chinese academy of sciences industrial artificial intelligence research institute was officially signed in jiangsu in june this year. it is the third newly established institute of the chinese academy of sciences in the country since 2010.

from now to 2035, it is considered a critical period for china's manufacturing industry to achieve growth from large to strong, and it is also a critical period for the quality, efficiency and power transformation of the manufacturing industry. previously, the spokesperson of the ministry of industry and information technology said that artificial intelligence represented by large models is accelerating its deep integration with the manufacturing industry, profoundly changing the manufacturing production model and economic form, and showing a strong enabling effect.

this is also a critical moment for nanjing. in the first half of this year, nanjing's gdp was 860.742 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.4%. this result is not ideal. local media bluntly stated that nanjing ranks relatively low, both in jiangsu province and compared with sub-provincial cities of the same level, and pointed out that "an important reason is that industrial development is not strong enough, especially in the manufacturing sector."

how to break out of the predicament? at the 9th plenary session of the 15th nanjing municipal party committee held recently, the "ten key tasks" of economic system reform were clarified, which also mentioned the need to build a national advanced manufacturing base and a modern service industry center in the east, accelerate the formation of new momentum and new advantages for industrial development, and build and make good use of the national artificial intelligence innovation and application pilot zone.

nanjing is the 9th national ai innovation and application pilot zone approved by the ministry of industry and information technology and the only one in jiangsu. in may this year, nanjing released an ai action plan and policy measures, proposing to promote ai+ manufacturing demonstration applications. focusing on industries such as steel, petrochemicals, and automobiles, it will accelerate the industrialization and application of large models, cultivate and form 1-2 large industrial application models, and cultivate and create more than 20 ai application scenarios.

as a major scientific and technological innovation platform, the establishment of the industrial artificial intelligence research institute of the chinese academy of sciences (preparatory) is of great significance to jiangsu and nanjing. previously, yu haibin, an academician of the chinese academy of engineering, led a team to visit nanjing iron and steel as the head of the preparatory group of the industrial artificial intelligence research institute of the chinese academy of sciences to conduct research on the company's artificial intelligence and intelligent manufacturing related innovation practices.
