随着人工智能的热度日渐升温，各国政府对人工智能日益重视。2016年，中、美、英等国家先后发布报告，把人工智能作为一项国家发展战略。美国、欧盟、中国、日本等国家和组织高度重视、积极布局，通过政策和资金等方式支持行业和企业发展，抢占产业发展制高点。其中，美国政府早在2013年就启动创新神经技术脑研究计划（BRAIN），2016年对人工智能相关技术研发投资约为12亿美元；日本政府投巨资扶持人工智能研究，2016年投入100亿日元，2017年预算中要求为人工智能相关研究申请924亿日元，这将是2016年最初预算的9倍；中国国家发改委、科技部、工信部、中央网信办联合印发《“互联网+”人工智能三年行动实施方案》，将协同布局人工智能发展。
With increasing popularity of AI，governments show growing concern over the development of AI. In 2016，China，the United States and the United Kingdom publicize reports concerned with AI respectively，regarding development of AI as a national strategy. Authorities and organizations such as the United States，the European Union，China and Japan contest for the commanding point of industrial development of AI by actively implementing policy and providing financial support. U.S. government took the lead in launching the program “Brain Research through Advancing Innovative” Neuro（BRAIN）in 2013. In 2016，U.S. government invested 1.2 billion U.S. dollars on the research and development of AI and its related technologies. Japanese authority also invested heavily to support the research on AI. With investment amounted to 10 billion yen in 2016，in 2017，the investment budget request for AI 92.4 billion yen，almost nine times the initial budget request amount. China’s National Development and Reform Commission，Ministry of Science and Technology，Ministry of Industry and the Central Network Information Office jointly issued a “three-year implementation plan for the development of ‘internet +’ AI”，and collaboratively undertake industrial distribution of AI.
