This year's "** Work Report" proposes to "deepen the R&D and application of big data and artificial intelligence, carry out the 'artificial intelligence +' action, and build a digital industrial cluster with international competitiveness." ”
With the empowerment of artificial intelligence in thousands of industries, the demand for the cultivation of basic algorithms and innovative leading talents has further increased, and at the same time, there is a shortage of industrial compound innovative talents. Liu Qingfeng, a representative of the National People's Congress and chairman of iFLYTEK, believes that the question of artificial intelligence talent training should be answered in an all-round way from different levels such as the whole stage of education and teaching empowered by large models, the cultivation of top-notch innovative talents in artificial intelligence, and the cultivation of application-oriented talents.
In terms of large-scale model empowerment education and teaching, Liu Qingfeng believes that it should cover the whole school period of basic education, vocational education and higher education, empower the quality and efficiency of education and teaching from primary and secondary schools to vocational education and universities, and create assistants for teachers and students.
In terms of the cultivation of top-notch innovative talents in artificial intelligence, he suggested the establishment of a national artificial intelligence academy to promote it in the organizational form of "core + base" and a new mechanism. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the construction of first-level disciplines of artificial intelligence, cooperate with leading enterprises to build a number of artificial intelligence talent integration training bases, and create a special selection mechanism and channel for outstanding talents.
In the era of artificial intelligence, interdisciplinary and innovative talents are called. Liu Qingfeng suggested that in the fields of life sciences, chemistry, pharmaceuticals, physics, materials and other disciplines, the introduction of artificial intelligence general education courses, cultivate a group of talents with professional scientific research capabilities and high-level general artificial intelligence understanding ability, and make reserves for possible interdisciplinary breakthroughs.
Previously, a report released by the Talent Exchange Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology showed that in the strong development wave of China's artificial intelligence industry, the number of enterprises researching and applying artificial intelligence technology is increasing, and the demand for talents has surged in a short period of time, but the artificial intelligence talent reserve is insufficient and the training mechanism is not perfect, and the talent supply and demand ratio is seriously unbalanced. Liu Qingfeng suggested that we should pay attention to the impact of general artificial intelligence on various industries in society, accelerate the construction of new talent ability and quality models and curriculum training systems, especially accelerate the cultivation of applied talents such as general artificial intelligence to empower software, language learning, and artistic creativity, help the development of China's software industry and digital economy, and accelerate the integration of digital economy and real economy with artificial intelligence.
He also suggested that relevant departments should conduct special research on labor training and reemployment for industries and positions that may be replaced by artificial intelligence in the future, and respond to them in advance and proactively.
