China’s national supercomputing framework aims to accelerate digital transformation

Like the United States, China is seeking public input to establish AI laws.— Unsplash China aims to establish a national supercomputing framework to accelerate its digital initiatives and advance the development of new technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI). The framework is expected to be operational by the end of 2025 and will consolidate computing resources across the country to support local development efforts. The objective is to create a more cohesive system that can distribute computing capacity more effectively to areas where it is most needed, local media reported citing the Ministry of Science and Technology. This move is critical in promoting the growth of big data, AI, and other emerging technologies that rely on significant computing power. By implementing a national framework, China hopes to overcome several challenges, including the uneven distribution of computing power, the lack of standardisation, and the insufficient incentives for creating and adopting locally developed software, according to the state-owned newspaper China Daily .
