当前,人工智能与软件产业深度融合已成为培育新质生产力、做强数智经济核心产业的重要支撑。武汉作为华中地区唯一“中国软件名城”,科教资源丰富、产业根基扎实,具备推进“AI+软件”的良好条件。武汉将依托AI全方位赋能软件产业,从产品、研发、管理三方面推进产业智能化转型。
一是推动软件产品AI化,实现产品价值迭代跃升。深化基础软件、工业软件与人工智能融合发展,鼓励企业研发具有AI功能的软件产品和解决方案,提升产品价值和竞争力。力争2026年培育150个优秀行业智能体产品,打造10个国内知名的垂类大模型,引导100家深耕垂直行业的软件系统集成商向人工智能应用服务商转型。
二是推动软件开发AI化,实现研发效能系统变革。支持龙头企业和有条件的规上企业建设10个以上“超级软件工厂”,引导规下小微企业向OPC转型,运用AI工具简化开发流程。力争2026年实现1000家规上软件企业AI辅助开发全覆盖,孵化100款以上AI测试类工具产品。
三是推动企业管理AI化,实现经营管理质效升级。支持企业对各类经营管理软件实施智能化升级,全面嵌入智能体应用,鼓励企业自研AI管理软件,拓展智能办公、智能审批、智能运维等场景。力争2026年全市软件行业经营管理类智能体使用率突破80%。
数据显示,近4年,武汉软件产业规模增长速度始终位居全国14座软件名城前两位,2025年迈上4000亿元台阶。未来,武汉将进一步以“智能化”为引擎,推动软件产品和软件企业AI化转型;以“开源化”为重点推动全市软件产业发展迈上新台阶,力争“十五五”时期产业规模突破8000亿元。
另悉,第四届软件创新发展大会将于6月10日至6月11日在武汉举办。大会将聚焦人工智能驱动下的软件产业范式变革与前沿趋势,围绕国家软件产业发展战略、“十五五”软件产业发展新趋势、地方典型实践经验等重点内容,设置主旨演讲、专题研讨、供需对接、成果展示等系列活动。(完)
