Greetings from Shenyang, China: The Rise of China’s AI Workforce
In recent years, Shenyang, China has seen a surge in workers sorting AI data in ways reminiscent of the popular TV series ‘Severance’. This trend is part of China’s ambitious economic plan, Made in China 2025, which aims to shift the country towards a more advanced, high-tech economy. With AI identified as one of the key industries in this plan, students enrolled in vocational programs like “Computer Science,” “Big Data,” and “Artificial Intelligence” are taking on entry-level positions in China’s thriving AI sector.
According to public reports and interviews with industry insiders, the AI industry in China is booming, with data vendors, vocational school staff, recruitment agencies, and labor researchers all witnessing the growth firsthand. From Shenyang to Shenzhen, cities across China are embracing AI technologies in various sectors, including manufacturing, healthcare, and the industrial internet.
One of the key players in this rapid expansion is Shiyang Wang, CEO of SIASUN, a leading robotics company in Shenyang. Wang’s vision for the future of AI in China is driving innovation and progress, positioning Shenyang as a major hub for AI development in the region.
As China continues to make strides in AI governance, the global community is closely watching the country’s approach to regulating this powerful technology. With the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) leading the way in setting rules for AI applications, China is taking a proactive stance in shaping the future of AI.
Despite challenges like data-cleaning demands and the rise of “digital gig workers” in the AI field, the outlook for China’s AI workforce remains optimistic. With ongoing investments and advancements in AI technology, the potential for growth and innovation in Shenyang and beyond is limitless.
