It is predicted that China's market scale in artificial intelligence will exceed 70 billion yuan in 2020.
Layout of artificial intelligence industry
With the rapid development of China's artificial intelligence market, all localities actively carry out industrial layout. On the whole, China's artificial intelligence industry has formed a pattern of coordinated development in Beijing Tianjin Hebei region, the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta, especially in the eastern coastal areas.
Among them, Beijing's layout is relatively mature and has a relatively perfect industrial chain. In particular, institutions such as ZhongGuanCun science city provide favorable policy, technology and talent support for the development of Beijing's artificial intelligence industry. At present, the number of artificial intelligence enterprises in Beijing is at the forefront of the country, about 400.
Compared with Beijing, Shanghai has fewer AI enterprises, but it is also ahead of other provinces and cities. Shanghai plans to build an artificial intelligence highland and create a first-class artificial intelligence innovation ecology. At present, it has arranged a "human" spatial structure, distributed in 8 regions and 11 industries. In addition to Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places also actively layout, and artificial intelligence enterprises are relatively concentrated.
Guangdong's scientific and technological innovation ability is also in a leading position. In particular, the planning and development of Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Bay Area attaches importance to the layout of artificial intelligence. Up to now, Guangdong Province has successfully identified two batches of 8 parks as "Guangdong artificial intelligence Industrial Park". In addition, relying on the important opportunities of national characteristic towns, thousands of enterprises and thousands of towns project, National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone in the Pearl River Delta and the construction of Guangzhou Shenzhen Science and technology innovation corridor, Guangdong encourages local cities to speed up the application layout of artificial intelligence industry and build a number of artificial intelligence towns in combination with local foundation and advantages.
Forecast of development trend of artificial intelligence industry in 2020
At present, the basic conditions for the development of China's artificial intelligence industry have been met. The next decade will be the outbreak period of accelerating the popularization of artificial intelligence technology, and the special chip for artificial intelligence is expected to become the next outbreak point. With the commercial implementation of 5g, the development of artificial intelligence industry will be accelerated. At the same time, artificial intelligence has a significant spillover effect, which will drive the continuous progress of other related technologies and boost the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries and the overall breakthrough of strategic emerging industries. In 2020, AI will have the following development trends:
1. Policies continue to optimize industry development
Since 2017, artificial intelligence has been mentioned in the government work report for three consecutive years, indicating the importance of the artificial intelligence industry. In 2019, in the government work report, artificial intelligence has gone through the embryonic stage and preliminary development stage from "accelerating", "strengthening" to "deepening", indicating that it will enter a period of rapid development in the next stage, and pay more attention to the application. In 2020, the government will continue to support accelerating the development of artificial intelligence industry. The "policy continuous catalysis" of artificial intelligence is one of the development trends of the industry.
2.5G accelerates the development of the industry
With the further maturity of artificial intelligence technology, enterprise business application ability will become an important assessment factor of capital in the future. 2019 is the first year of 5g commercial implementation. With the gradual advent of 5g commercial era, the connection efficiency of artificial intelligence technology will be further improved, and the fields of in-depth learning, data mining and automatic programming will be realized in more application fields. 5g will further promote the accelerated development of the industry.
3. Large scale landing of AI chips
In recent years, AI chips have gradually reached a usable state, and 2020 will be a key year for the large-scale implementation of AI chips. The end-side AI chip will be more low-cost, professional and integrated. At the same time, NPU (neural network processing unit) will become the basic module of the next generation end-side general CPU chip. In the future, more and more end-side CPU chips will carry out new chip planning with deep learning as the core. In addition to the chip, AI will redefine the computer architecture, and support AI training and predictive computing has become a new heterogeneous design architecture idea.
4. Deep learning and large-scale application
