The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) recently held a series of press conferences under the theme "Striving for the 15th Five-Year Plan" to brief on efforts to cultivate and strengthen new growth drivers. Wang Ruomeng, Deputy Director of the Department of Innovation and High-Tech Development, noted that there is broad consensus across society that artificial intelligence presents both opportunities and risks. During the 15th Five-Year Plan period, China will continue to coordinate development and security, integrating security throughout all stages of AI research and development, application, and governance, with a focus on advancing four areas of work. First, the governance rules system will be improved and compliance boundaries clarified. Second, the regulatory environment will be optimized and regulatory adaptability enhanced. Third, the collaborative governance responsibilities of multiple entities will be clarified and joint governance efforts consolidated, as preventing and controlling security risks is the shared responsibility of government departments, industry organizations, enterprises, and the public. Fourth, the social impact of artificial intelligence will be actively addressed to ensure a people-centered approach and upward, benevolent development. Regarding employment impact, close attention will be paid to how artificial intelligence affects the employment structure, its vitality in creating new jobs and driving innovation and entrepreneurship will be fully unleashed, and support will be given to including new professions such as model trainers and data annotators in the national occupational classification system.
