At the 23rd Beijing Internet Conference on Sept 21, Beijing released the "Jingcai Zhilian" Action Plan (2026–2028) for AI + information and communications, alongside a national computing-power interconnection node.
Data showed China's large-model weekly token usage reached 61.17 trillion during Sept 7–13, up 7.8% week on week and close to half the global total. Forums highlighted the shift from "traffic operation" to "token operation" and AI's growing role in the silver-economy education and culture market serving 323 million seniors.
The plan positions Beijing to deepen AI adoption across industry, public services and the digital economy.
