Xinhua News Agency: AI Scientists, Product Architects, Blockchain Engineers to Become High-Paying Jobs

BlockBeats News, March 28: China's Xinhua News Agency recently published an article interpreting the "Outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China." The article pointed out that the "Outline" is a policy document outlining China's development blueprint for the next five years (2026-2030) and has deployed 109 major engineering projects.

The outline emphasizes the cultivation of various types of talents, including "increasing the training and support for strategic scientists, technology leaders, basic research talents, and young scientific and technological talents" and "cultivating outstanding engineers, master craftsmen of a great nation, and high-skilled talents."

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the top of the eight major engineering projects in the next five years for "frontier technology development." The key development focuses for the next five years include "developing high-performance AI chips and a highly available basic software stack" and "accelerating exploration and innovation in model infrastructure."

The article deliberately used smart agriculture as an example, stating that it will spawn a new generation of jobs: in the fields, ground-running unmanned harvesters are guided by navigators, aerial plant protection drones are controlled by pilots, and sensors monitoring crop growth require IoT engineers for maintenance; after the agricultural products are harvested, there is a need for a cold chain logistics analyst to calculate the optimal path from the field to the table, and quality traceability engineers who use blockchain technology to establish a "digital identity card" for each batch of rice.
