Specifically, 500 advanced intelligent factories will be developed, more than 2,000 AI-empowered manufacturing scenarios will be in operation, and new infrastructure facilities will be available to meet the needs of next-generation intelligent manufacturing, the plan said.

The action plan also elaborated on its goals of raising the city's robot density, a key gauge for measuring the adoption of automation in manufacturing, to 600 per 10,000 employees by 2028.

Meanwhile, as many as 8,000 humanoid robots will be deployed in factories by 2028, pushing the industry scale of AI-empowered new intelligent manufacturing equipment beyond 200 billion yuan ($29.89 billion) and expanding the intelligent manufacturing system integration industry to 100 billion yuan.
