Nanjing Municipal Party Committee Meeting Deploys AI Development

On August 27, the Nanjing Municipal Party Committee held a theoretical learning center group meeting, chaired by Secretary Zhou Hongbo, with academician Zhou Zhihua giving a report. The meeting proposed enhancing original innovation capabilities, promoting breakthroughs in computing chips, large models, and agents, and accelerating achievement transformation and enterprise incubation. It also emphasized expanding AI-enabled applications, opening real scenarios, strengthening software-hardware synergy, developing intelligent terminals, and enhancing data, computing, and talent supply.

The deployment will directly affect the local AI education ecosystem, including university research directions, talent cultivation, and employment. The meeting explicitly supports universities and institutes in Nanjing to strengthen basic research and promote achievement transformation, which will promote alignment of AI education curricula with industry needs. Expanding AI-enabled applications and opening scenarios may provide real application environments for educational products, but specific measures are not yet detailed, requiring attention to subsequent policy implementation. Universities and research institutions in Nanjing may receive more support for AI basic research, promoting discipline construction and talent cultivation. AI education product companies may benefit from open application scenarios and industrial ecosystem support, accelerating product deployment.
