China's advancement in artificial intelligence, particularly in scientific research, is hampered by its reliance on imported precision equipment. According to Weinan E, a professor at Peking University and a member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the lack of domestically developed high-end scientific instruments prevents researchers from obtaining the quality data necessary to develop and validate AI models. This dependence was highlighted at an "AI for Science" conference in Shanghai, where E likened the situation to "cooking without rice," emphasizing the critical need for indigenous precision equipment to fuel AI-driven scientific discovery.
