上海已初步建成中国人工智能发展领先地区 - 2019年06月19日

Shanghai has “initially taken a leading position” on development of artificial intelligence, which boosts economic development and innovation and changes people’s daily life in near future, top government officials said on Monday.
Shanghai is going to establish its own eco-system to boost AI development to become an “AI highland” nationwide. A top-level AI event — the World’s Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) will be held in the city in August, showcasing latest AI techs and attracting executives including Elon Musk from Tesla.
“Shanghai has initially taken a leading position on AI nationwide,” said Wu Qing, vice mayor of Shanghai. “We will continue to push up the Shanghai Program on AI for future development.”
