State Council General Office Issues Opinion on Employment-Friendly Development, Setting Boundaries for Robot Application
2 reports · 2 sources
On October 23, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Opinions on Adapting to the Development of Artificial Intelligence Technology and Helping to Build an Employment-Friendly Development Model," proposing that robots be prioritized for promotion and application in positions such as those with labor shortages and high environmental risks, and introducing an unemployment buffer period system. The document requires that before large-scale promotion of AI, workers must be informed in advance and supported in transitioning to new roles or jobs; for labor-intensive industries, the "scope, intensity, and pace of application" must be "steadily and prudently grasped." Some analyses accordingly hold that the valuation logic of low-end substitution-type robot projects will be affected, while scenarios such as power grid inspection, nuclear power maintenance, ship rust removal, and elderly care companionship are more in line with the policy direction.

- New AI deployment policy prioritizes high-risk roles, with implementation examples from four special-purpose robotics companies
The General Office of the State Council recently issued the Opinions on Adapting to the Development of AI Technology to Help Build an Employment-Friendly Development Model, proposing that AI be prioritized for deployment in roles facing labor shortages and in high-risk environments. The article uses projects from four special-purpose robotics companies—DEEP Robotics, Qiteng Robotics, Shihe Robotics, and Deepinfar—including power tunnel inspection, explosion-proof inspection, ship hull rust removal, and underwater inspection, to show that special-purpose robots have already been deployed ahead of others in paid operations. It also describes each company's AI exploration in embodied navigation, industrial multimodal large models, operational data collection, and underwater vision.

- State Council issues employment-friendly development opinion, setting boundaries for high-risk and labor-shortage scenarios in humanoid robot applications
On October 23, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Opinions on Adapting to the Development of AI Technology to Help Build an Employment-Friendly Development Model," proposing that robots be prioritized for deployment in positions facing labor shortages and high-risk environments, and introducing an unemployment buffer period system. The document requires that the scope, intensity, and pace of AI application in labor-intensive industries be handled prudently and steadily. On this basis, the author argues that the valuation logic of low-end substitution-type robot projects will be affected, while scenarios such as power grid inspection, nuclear power maintenance, ship rust removal, and elderly care and companionship are more in line with the policy direction.
