According to a recent report by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the open-source platform Hugging Face, the international impact of China’s AI technology is evolving. It is transitioning from open-source contributions to  practical applications. Meanwhile, its product offerings are shifting beyond standalone tool-based apps toward an integrated technological ecosystem that spans algorithms, platforms, and industry-specific solutions.

This transformation is closely linked to the in-depth implementation of China’s “AI Plus” initiative. Driven by both supportive policies and market demand, Chinese AI enterprises have gradually developed the capability to deeply integrate technology with application scenarios through long-term practice.

The article cites three examples for the globalisation of China-built AI systems:

• A Peruvian engineer conducts a glacier preservation mission in the Andes mountain range with a drone developed by Chinese company
• A teacher in a Thai school gives a Chinese class using an intelligent teaching system
• A doctor uses magnetic resonance imaging equipment developed by United Imaging Healthcare at a hospital in Malaga, Spain.

China’s competitive advantages in AI extends beyond technological innovation and application promotion to encompass active participation in global governance frameworks. Moving forward, Chinese AI enterprises will engage more deeply in global innovation networks through open collaboration.
