The wave of technology is constantly iterating, and artificial intelligence is playing an increasingly important role in various fields. Recently, the Zhejiang Provincial Administration for Market Regulation and platform enterprises jointly held the "Platform+Industry" artificial intelligence docking activity and launched the "AI Industry Accelerator Program". This plan is both in line with the trend and proactive. Zhejiang will use artificial intelligence as an engine to assist small and medium-sized enterprises in upgrading their digital capabilities, continuously unleashing the technological and industrial potential of AI. AI continues to create new opportunities. Zhejiang Yifan Daily Necessities Co., Ltd. mainly engages in daily necessities such as bath towels and beach towels, and exports to more than ten countries through the 1688 platform. The overall trend now is' quick return for small orders', which puts higher demands on the response speed of enterprises, "said General Manager Shu Kai." Therefore, since last year, enterprises have been starting from product design and experimenting with artificial intelligence. "This experiment has yielded immediate results. In the past, designing a new product required a team of at least five people to collaborate on development. Now, all that is needed is one AI trainer paired with a locally deployed large model device. ”Shu Kai said that the cost has directly decreased by nearly 70%. AI is helping factories transform small orders that they used to be unwilling or unable to accept into stable businesses that can be accepted, done quickly, and earned. Not just factories, artificial intelligence brings opportunities to "light entrepreneurs" who do not have factories or teams. At the matchmaking event, many young people shared their experiences of exploring personalized business through the use of AI and platform tools. A novice mother started with 500 yuan and earned 2.6 million yuan in three years by customizing pet accessories; There are also car enthusiasts who use AI design and small batch production to achieve a net profit of 1.3 million yuan in six months with just one car cup holder... They rely on flexible supply chains and AI capabilities to quickly incubate products and establish a commercial path. Nowadays, small red book bloggers, Tiktok anchors, Kwai experts, community "leaders", various "group leaders" and full-time mothers are the main force of "light entrepreneurship". Some young white-collar workers who do sideline work can earn much more money from sideline work than their wages. There are more and more people like this, which has become an important trend at present. One data can show that on 1688, the number of active buyers in 2024 increased by 55% year-on-year, exceeding the growth rate of all e-commerce platforms targeting ordinary consumers, "said Yu Yong, CEO of Alibaba 1688 platform. The "AI Industry Accelerator Plan" was launched. As the "first square" of national AI development, Zhejiang is taking platform economy as the engine to comprehensively promote the development of AI enabled industries. At the recent provincial platform economy high-quality development conference held by the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government, it was explicitly proposed to create artificial intelligence application scenarios, deepen the two-way empowerment of "platform+industry", and focus on building a new benchmark for modern industrial systems. The Zhejiang Provincial Administration for Market Regulation has established "AI empowerment" as the core engine of the "platform+industry" two-way empowerment action, fully leveraging the integration advantages of platform enterprises in AI technology, big data, and market applications, and jointly launching the "AI Industry Accelerator Program" with platform enterprises. The relevant person in charge of the Zhejiang Provincial Administration for Market Regulation stated that for small and medium-sized enterprises in industrial clusters, artificial intelligence is not only a cutting-edge technology, but also a valuable opportunity for transformation and upgrading, and achieving high-quality development. Zhejiang has formulated three major safeguard measures around this plan. Firstly, we will establish a 'platform+industry' comprehensive service station, integrating the use of quality, standards, metrology, branding, intellectual property and other service methods to provide comprehensive online and offline integrated services for enterprises. ”The above-mentioned person in charge said that secondly, selecting artificial intelligence counselors and supporting platform enterprises to select a group of AI technicians to provide "zero distance" and "one-on-one" AI application customization services for enterprises, so that enterprises can learn to use AI technology to explore new business opportunities and expand new spaces. In addition, Zhejiang will also establish a number of cooperation and docking platforms, and continue to carry out a series of activities such as the "Huotong Global Industrial Belt Going Global Plan" and "Artificial Intelligence+Platform Economy". By establishing a multi-party cooperation and exchange mechanism, it will promote the aggregation of various innovative elements of artificial intelligence and the rational allocation of resources, help accelerate industrial transformation, and enhance core competitiveness. How to pave the fast lane towards an intelligent future for small and medium-sized enterprises by helping them upgrade their digital capabilities? Zhejiang will focus on opening up algorithm resources, providing 'toolboxes', and creating' control cockpits'. ”According to Xie Xiaoyun, Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Zhejiang Provincial Administration for Market Regulation, Zhejiang will further open up platform data and algorithm resources, provide a modular AI development platform, lower the technology access threshold for small and medium-sized enterprises through standardized interfaces, and reduce underlying R&D investment; Build 3D product models based on digital twin technology, simulate real scenes for virtual testing, optimize prototype design, and reduce trial and error costs. Secondly, Zhejiang provides low-cost "plug and play" toolboxes for small and medium-sized enterprises, offering "low code, lightweight" software packages; Deploy a flexible production scheduling system to adapt to small and multiple batch orders, achieving "fast response for small orders" manufacturing; Assist in optimizing production plans and form a full chain collaboration of "design scheduling delivery". At the same time, Zhejiang has also launched the "Market Intelligence Assistant" to make marketing more precise. It is reported that since the beginning of this year, the Zhejiang Provincial Administration for Market Regulation has implemented a "platform+industry" two-way empowerment action, exploring and practicing the "dual integration and dual promotion" development mechanism of platform industries, focusing on strengthening, supplementing and extending the consumer goods industry cluster, and focusing on cultivating and building 25 consumer goods industry clusters with reasonable layout and regional characteristics.
