Yang Renquan, deputy secretary of the Haidian District Party Committee, delivered a speech
Yang Renquan, deputy secretary of the Haidian District Party Committee, said that Haidian District has a deep foundation for the development of the artificial intelligence industry and a first-mover advantage. At present, the Municipal Party Committee focuses on the forward-looking layout of the artificial intelligence industry, and clearly proposes to build an artificial intelligence innovation source and industrial development highland with global influence with Haidian as the core. In recent years, Haidian District has successively issued a number of important policies and documents around the development of the artificial intelligence industry, accumulating strong momentum for the development of the artificial intelligence industry. At the same time, Haidian District has vigorously strengthened the supply of key elements such as computing power data, accelerated the construction of application scenarios, and focused on key areas such as education, medical care, government affairs, finance, and embodied intelligence to accelerate the application of domestic large models. In accordance with the requirements of the Municipal Party Committee, Haidian District is striving to seize the window period for the development of artificial intelligence, benchmark against the international advanced level, and promote the vigorous development of the artificial intelligence industry with the strength of the whole district. In the next step, Haidian District will continue to take the lead in artificial intelligence, focus on the pain points and difficulties of artificial intelligence, build a national artificial intelligence training base at a high level, accelerate the construction of a high-quality large model corpus, make every effort to promote the research of large models and disruptive technologies, plan to build artificial intelligence innovation blocks and talent special zones, effectively gather innovative elements from an international perspective, and promote the high-quality development of the artificial intelligence industry represented by large models.
