China Advances Edge AI in Smart Devices

Over the past year China has accelerated deployment of edge AI in consumer and industrial devices, with estimates showing more than 6,000 AI companies in 2025 and a core sector expected to exceed 1.2 trillion yuan ($170 billion). A January action plan from MIIT and other agencies promotes on-device models and smart terminal upgrades; analysts say edge AI will improve latency and privacy and broaden real-world application, though chip and ecosystem gaps remain.
