Yangtze River Delta AI Innovation Center Launch: An Interviewee's Perspective on Real-World Implementation

According to the 2025 China Artificial Intelligence Industry White Paper, AI companies in the Yangtze River Delta account for 35% of the national total, but the technology implementation rate is only 42%, with many algorithms stuck in labs or demo stages. Meanwhile, over 60% of campus recruitment positions for AI algorithm roles for the class of 2026 require "experience with industry solutions." The Yangtze River Delta AI+ Joint Innovation Center, co-built by Qingpu and Huawei, was established against this backdrop—it turned "AI+" from a slogan into a tangible entity.
