China Media Group (CMG) launched a significant artificial intelligence (AI) program on Wednesday in Shenzhen, south China’s Guangdong Province. The initiative, co-sponsored by the Office of the Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission and the Guangdong provincial government, marks a strategic move towards advancing AI technology in the region.
At the event, CMG released a comprehensive white paper on AI development. The document outlines four fundamental principles and proposes a three-pronged approach aimed at providing a robust framework for the healthy and orderly advancement of AI technology. The white paper emphasizes the importance of innovation, ethical guidelines, regulatory measures, and international collaboration in shaping the future of AI in China and beyond.
“The development of artificial intelligence is pivotal for technological progress and economic growth,” a CMG representative stated. “Our white paper serves as a guiding beacon to ensure that AI development aligns with societal values and contributes positively to both the domestic and global community.”
The newly launched AI program is scheduled to be broadcast in June across CMG’s multiple platforms, offering insights and discussions on the latest AI trends, research breakthroughs, and applications. This broadcast aims to engage a wide audience, from industry professionals and investors to academics and technology enthusiasts, fostering a deeper understanding of AI’s role in modern society.
Shenzhen, known as China’s technology hub, provides an ideal backdrop for this initiative, reflecting the city’s commitment to innovation and its significant role in the country’s tech ecosystem. The collaboration between CMG, governmental bodies, and industry stakeholders underscores a collective effort to propel AI development responsibly and effectively.
