Pilot zone plan released

A plan for a national pilot zone to develop new-generation AI in Shanghai was released on July 8.

The Filed Experiment Plan for AI Application in Shanghai was released at the AI Governance Forum at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference. It will focus on problems that the city is likely to face during the digital transformation, deal with topics on AI application and respond to suggestions.

It suggests that a system be put in place to evaluate and perceive potential risks during the digital transformation, explore new innovation-driven AI-backed ways to better manage society, and setting up AI production standards. The plan can then be used as a reference for other cities.
