The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, and the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce have issued the "Implementation Guidelines for the Digital Transformation of Manufacturing Enterprises." It is required that promoting the digital transformation of manufacturing enterprises is a systematic project that should start from the actual development of enterprises, aim to solve the pain points and difficulties faced by enterprises, be guided by the goal of enhancing overall factor productivity, and take digitalization of scenarios as the entry point. This involves comprehensively considering technological maturity, economic feasibility, and the sustainability of business models to accurately identify priority areas and key directions for digital transformation.

Among the proposals, there is an emphasis on promoting the intelligent transformation of production processes. Enterprises are encouraged to implement transparent management throughout the entire production process, and to deploy lightweight industrial applications based on industrial internet platforms for order management, equipment management, quality management, etc., to enhance the digital management and control capabilities of production processes.

Additionally, it is mentioned that leading enterprises are encouraged to build high-quality industrial data corpora to support the training and application promotion of industrial artificial intelligence and to explore the potential value of industrial data. The construction of a national industrial internet big data center will be advanced, establishing a multi-level national industrial basic database and industry databases, promoting the construction of product master data standards, creating an industrial data space, and facilitating the convenient and efficient circulation of data.

AI Development Has Not Slowed Down! Anthropic Co-Founder: Progress in Artificial Intelligence Will Be 'More Significant' in 2025

Has the development of artificial intelligence reached a bottleneck? Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark recently stated in a newsletter that this is not the case. He believes that the recent release of OpenAI's o3 model indicates that AI development is not slowing down, but may in fact be accelerating. Clark refuted claims that AI development is reaching its limits in his newsletter called 'Import AI.' He wrote, 'Anyone telling you that progress is slowing down or that expansion is hitting a bottleneck is wrong.'

Hawaii Public Schools Pilot AI Project! Students Create Chatbots to Solve Campus Challenges

Hawaii public schools recently piloted an artificial intelligence project, the results of which left a deep impression on education leaders and even moved them. Six teams of 80 students from elementary, middle, and high schools across the islands were tasked with identifying challenges faced by their peers and creating an AI program or "chatbot" to help find solutions. The project was co-created by Ian Kitajima, president of the Pacific International Center for High Technology Research. Hawaii Public Radio (HPR) interviewed Kitajima to learn more.

AI Can Now Smell Whiskey! Successfully Identifies Differences Between American and Scotch Whiskeys

Recently, a research team from the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging in Germany developed an artificial intelligence molecular scent prediction algorithm called OWSum, which successfully distinguishes American whiskey from Scotch whiskey, surpassing human experts in accuracy. The team trained this AI tool using flavor descriptions and chemical data of whiskey to explore its potential in whiskey identification. Image source note: The image was generated by AI, and the image licensing provider Midjourney was involved in the study, where researchers selected 16 samples.

Thailand's Ministry of Industry Introduces AI Regulation! Able to Detect 100,000 Counterfeit Products Sold Online Daily

Thailand's Ministry of Industry recently announced the introduction of an artificial intelligence (AI) system to enhance the regulation of counterfeit products sold on online platforms. Pongpol Yodmuangcharoen, the secretary of the ministry's industrial reform and innovation committee, stated on Wednesday that the proposal was discussed during the committee's meeting on December 20. The committee learned during its second meeting on December 20 that a study indicated the ministry's AI system could monitor and detect 100,000 items daily.
