Obstacles and Realization Path of Artificial Intelligence to Promote the Upgrading of China’s Manufacturing Value Chain

Artificial intelligence-enabled manufacturing intelligence is a necessary way for China to break through the “low-end lock” within the global value chain and realize high-quality development. As the core driving force of the new round of scientific and technological revolution, artificial intelligence promotes the transformation of China’s manufacturing production mode to human-machine cooperation and cross-border integration. Through integrating government, market and social resources to build a new type of national system, Chinese enterprises gradually get rid of the dependence on processing and assembly, shift from low value-added segments to high value-added ones such as R&D and design, brand marketing and intelligent services, which will realize technological innovation, industrial upgrading and policy coordination, promote the transformation of manufacturing industry from “participant” to “leader”, and finally create a modernized industrial system with integrity, advancement and safety.
