With the rapid development of China's AI field, more and more companies are expanding their market with AI products. China is promoting a more balanced development of the global digital economy through the enhancement of its own innovation capabilities, allowing digital friendly construction to benefit the world.

Professor Jiang Xiaojuan from the University of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences said that AI big models are born to face the global market, which is completely different from the era of manufacturing where China grows and becomes stronger before "going global". Open source big models quickly bridge the gap in AI capabilities and levels between enterprises in different countries, greatly reducing the cross-border flow of innovation resources and the cost of joint innovation on a global scale.

Joe Weiman, President of the Future Industries Research Institute in the United States, said that today we are witnessing exciting breakthroughs in the field of technology, especially the development of artificial intelligence. Overall, China, especially Beijing, is leading the world in multiple technological fields, bringing exponential improvements in economic progress and living standards, benefiting not only China but also the entire world.

Our country has cooperated with China on some digital projects, "said Mahamat Khalil Abdulkarim, the mayor of the 10th district of N'Djamena, Chad.

We hope to have more cooperation in the future, especially in the field of artificial intelligence, to bridge the digital divide.

Experts attending the meeting believe that AI is a new field of human development, an important driving force for the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, and an international public good that benefits humanity.

By 2025, the added value of Beijing's digital economy will exceed 2.4 trillion yuan, an increase of 8.7% compared to the previous year at current prices, accounting for 46.4% of the city's regional GDP. Cities represented by Beijing are using the digital economy to drive global economic development.

In the face of common challenges such as data security, the attending representatives pointed out that all parties should establish a multilateral regular dialogue mechanism and industry docking channels to jointly build a secure and trustworthy digital future.

Chen Boyue, President of the Asian Academy of Digital Economy Sciences, said that the development of technology cannot run too fast like a locomotive, making it difficult for ordinary people to keep up. The development of technology requires putting people first and making the lives of the general public more convenient and enriched.
