On the key track of the global artificial intelligence industry competition, China has embarked on an advanced path of "technological iteration, application landing, and ecological co construction" with its unique comprehensive advantages. From policy guidance to market empowerment, from building a foundation in computing power to deep cultivation in scenarios, the combination of multiple advantages not only drives China's AI to achieve a leap from following and running, but also makes artificial intelligence a powerful engine for forging new quality productivity and driving high-quality economic and social development, demonstrating the profound foundation and strong vitality of China's scientific and technological development. Policy synergy empowerment and building a solid foundation for industrial development are the core advantages of China's steady progress in AI. China has established a policy system that links top-level design with specialized deployment, providing precise guidance for the development of AI. The "15th Five Year Plan" proposes to promote the "National Integrated Computing Power Network", and the State Council's "Opinions on Deepening the Implementation of the" Artificial Intelligence+"Action" clearly states the need to "strengthen the overall planning of intelligent computing power", outlining a clear blueprint for the coordinated development of computing power; From the 'Opinions on Deepening the Implementation of the' Artificial Intelligence+'Action' to promote the full implementation of AI in all aspects, to the deployment of the 'Artificial Intelligence+Manufacturing' special action by eight departments and the clarification of industrial goals by 2027, policy dividends continue to be released, loosening the burden on enterprise innovation, promoting the coordinated advancement of technology, computing power, and application throughout the entire chain, and forming a development pattern of top-down linkage and comprehensive promotion. Breakthrough in both computing power and technology, strengthen the "hard support" for innovative development, and build differentiated competitive advantages. Computing power is the core foundation of AI development. China has built 42 10000 card intelligent computing clusters, with an intelligent computing power scale of over 1590 EFLOPS, ranking among the top in the world. The East West Computing Project has achieved cross regional optimization of computing power resources, providing a solid guarantee for technological iteration. At the same time, the vitality of technological innovation continues to burst, with the global cumulative download volume of domestically produced open source large models exceeding 10 billion times. Enterprises such as DeepSeek continue to break through the boundaries of new generation large model technology, and China has become the largest holder of AI patents in the world, forming distinctive innovative achievements in fields such as general and specialized integration and multimodality, gradually narrowing the gap with the international top level, and building a virtuous cycle of "computing power foundation and technological breakthrough". The scene resources are abundant and vast, activating value and releasing "new momentum", demonstrating the advantages of large-scale application. China has a super large market with over 6000 AI companies and an expected core industry scale exceeding 1.2 trillion yuan, providing rich scene soil for technology landing. From blast furnace optimization and intelligent inspection in industrial manufacturing to the "Internet of Things" in the field of people's livelihood, it demonstrates the strong vitality of scene penetration. The ultra large scale market not only enables rapid verification of technological feasibility, but also dilutes research and development costs through large-scale applications, promotes continuous optimization of technology, and forms a closed loop of "application feedback technology iteration value enhancement". The synergy between ecology and market will expand the "circle of friends" for industrial development, and gather diverse development forces. China is promoting the deep integration of AI with various industries, cultivating new industries such as intelligent connected vehicles and AI terminals, and empowering the upgrading of traditional industries through the "AI+" initiative. As a key year for the popularization of end-to-end AI terminals, 2026 may give rise to more new industrial growth points. At the same time, from technology going global to scenario implementation, domestic enterprises actively participate in global ecological co construction, forming a development trend of "endogenous growth and global linkage", providing reference for global digital transformation. Only by relying on advantages can we achieve stability and long-term success, and only by facing challenges can we continue to rise. Currently, the comprehensive advantages of China's AI industry have become an important support for leapfrog development, but there are still shortcomings in key technologies and hardware, and issues such as energy consumption control and scene adaptation in data centers still need to be addressed. In the future, we need to continue to make efforts in policy guidance, computing power support, and scenario empowerment to fill the gaps in development, promote the deep integration of innovation chain, industry chain, capital chain, and talent chain, consolidate development advantages, and promote the higher quality development of China's AI industry.
