In the water town south of the Yangtze River, autumn is in full swing; the Wuzhen Summit has arrived as promised. The Wuzhen Summit of the 2026 World Internet Conference will be held here. The theme of "Open Source, Openness, Co-construction and Sharing-Working Together to Build a Community with a Shared Future in Cyberspace" is not only a positive response to the development trend of digital intelligence, but also a proactive answer to the development proposition of the times.

At present, the world's changes over the past century are accelerating. A new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation are reshaping the global landscape at an unprecedented speed. New technologies such as the Internet and artificial intelligence are accelerating their integration into industry, people's livelihood, scientific research and other fields, injecting strong momentum into economic and social development. At the same time, risks such as algorithmic bias, data security, and technology abuse have emerged, posing new challenges to social order and ethical norms. The global governance of artificial intelligence is at an important crossroads.

Open source is the choice to stimulate innovation and break down technical barriers. The progress of new technologies cannot be based on the monopoly of a few entities, but should be rooted in the full flow of global innovation resources. In the context of increasingly complex technical systems and widely expanded application scenarios, open source collaboration extends to wider areas and has become an important way to promote inclusive technology and enhance the common welfare of mankind. Only by opening up and breaking down barriers and cohesion can the light of technological progress illuminate a broader space.

Sharing is not a simple sinking of technology, but the in-depth arrival of innovative results. Under a sound institutional framework and ethical constraints, open source sharing can release innovation dividends and move towards an inclusive and secure digital intelligence future. Give full play to the role of multilateral mechanisms as a bridge and bring together governments, enterprises, scientific research institutions, social organizations and the public to discuss governance strategies, jointly build a digital ecosystem, and share development results, and promote the flow and integration of technology, knowledge, talents and other elements on a larger scale and at a deeper level, so that artificial intelligence can truly become an international public good that benefits mankind.

The development of new technologies thrives due to flow and becomes strong due to convergence. Looking at the road ahead, walking hand in hand, and actively practicing the concept of building a community with a shared future in cyberspace will create a new situation of win-win cooperation and work together for a better digital future.
