Pudong speeds AI development
More than 50 world-class artificial intelligence firms will appear in the Pudong New Area in the near future, according to a government official, creating an AI industry with an output of over 30 billion yuan (US$4.41 billion).
As a national AI innovation demonstration area, Pudong’s development models and experience will be copied and promoted nationwide, the official said on Wednesday. Those firms cover AI chips, connected cars, robots and smart devices, mainly in industrial parks in Zhangjiang, Jinqiao and Lingang areas.
In Zhangjiang’s new AI Harbor region, more than a dozen firms have set up facilities, including overseas industry giants, leading dot-com firms, research institutes and startups. They include IBM, Microsoft, Alibaba, Tongji University and Cloudwork, an AI startup which has raised millions of dollars in several rounds of fundraising.
