Promote the application of universal humanoid robots in intelligent manufacturing and accelerate the transition from "apprentices" to "formal workers"
Universal humanoid robots are considered another super intelligent terminal after computers, smartphones, and smart cars, and are becoming an important direction for future industries. According to relevant predictions, the shipment volume of humanoid robots in China is expected to exceed 2.6 million units by 2035, with a market size of over 140 billion yuan and a long-term scale of trillions of yuan.
With the continuous breakthroughs in general artificial intelligence technology, the innovation of Chinese humanoid robots has attracted global attention in recent years, and China has formed a first mover advantage in the field of humanoid robot technology. However, with the widespread application of universal humanoid robots, the entire industry still faces the challenge of large-scale engineering applications. In order to promote the early transition of humanoid robots from "apprentices" to "formal workers", National People's Congress representative Lei Jun suggests accelerating the application of universal humanoid robots in intelligent manufacturing.
Firstly, we need to accelerate the breakthrough of engineering implementation difficulties and establish conditions for large-scale production. Lei Jun suggests taking the actual production needs of intelligent manufacturing as the driving force, focusing on improving the process stability of humanoid robots, and striving to achieve MTBF (mean time between failures) exceeding 10000 hours and task success rate exceeding 99% in specific industrial scenarios by 2027. Simultaneously strengthening the precise guidance of policies, rapidly enhancing the engineering capabilities of humanoid robots, and effectively reducing the individual costs of humanoid robots.
Secondly, expanding the application scenarios of intelligent manufacturing and increasing the utilization rate of humanoid robots. Encourage factories to provide more production workstations and create large-scale robot operation scenarios; Support the practical application of humanoid robots on specific production lines, undertaking medium to high intensity labor; Orderly promote the scale deployment of humanoid robots, open up more production scenarios, and build a leading level full robot production line.
Finally, it is necessary to strengthen the construction of safety standard system and promote the application of humanoid robots. Lei Jun specifically mentioned that he hopes to accelerate the development and implementation of unique codes for humanoid robots, ensure the safety of the production process of humanoid robots, and strengthen data security and ethical privacy in the operation scenarios of humanoid robots. Strengthen international exchanges and cooperation in the field of humanoid robots, participate in the development of global standards for "humanoid robots+intelligent manufacturing", and help Chinese humanoid robots go global.
Optimize the assessment items for motor vehicle driving and jointly build a civilized system for traffic safety in the era of intelligent driving
In recent years, China's intelligent assisted driving technology has developed rapidly. Data shows that from January to July 2025, the penetration rate of new passenger car combination driving assistance systems in China will exceed 60%, greatly optimizing the travel and living experience of the people. With L2 level assisted driving becoming standard, L3 level gradually entering large-scale commercial pilot, and L4 pilot areas and numbers further increasing, China's intelligent connected vehicle industry is entering a new stage of high-quality development.
However, the rapid development of automobile intelligence and intelligent assisted driving has also brought new challenges to the traditional road traffic safety civilization system, mainly manifested as: driving training has not been timely matched with new technologies and functions of intelligent vehicles; The intelligent technology standards and technical routes are not unified; The multi-party collaborative governance mechanism needs to be optimized, and the promotion and popularization of intelligent driving safety needs to be strengthened. In order to ensure traffic safety in the era of intelligent vehicles, Lei Jun suggests building a civilized system for traffic safety in the era of intelligent vehicles.
Firstly, accelerate the construction of intelligent technology standards for automobiles and optimize the assessment items for motor vehicle driving. Lei Jun expressed the hope that the competent authorities and industry organizations will take the lead in guiding various automobile production enterprises to work together and promote the extension of driving assessment projects to the intelligent field; Steadily increasing the weight of intelligent vehicle related content in driving tests, guiding drivers to firmly establish the concept of "human-machine collaboration" for safe driving; Innovate the construction of modern traffic safety education bases in the driving training process, and promote the improvement of driver capabilities to match the development of intelligent automobiles.
Secondly, improve the multi-party collaborative governance system and jointly build a traffic safety system in the era of intelligent driving. Lei Jun suggested that L2 level assisted driving "taking off hands and eyes" should be included in traffic violation penalties, and L3/L4 level intelligent driving safety guidelines should be clarified as soon as possible. Lei Jun also mentioned that it is necessary to further clarify the main responsibilities of automobile companies, strengthen the correct promotion and guidance of assisted driving functions by automobile production and sales enterprises, and strengthen the self-discipline of enterprise promotion, actively informing consumers of the responsibility and obligation of using intelligent functions.
Finally, strengthen the promotion and popularization of intelligent driving safety, and cultivate a new era of civilized driving culture. Accelerate the construction of a comprehensive and three-dimensional safety publicity and education system to help the public establish a rational understanding of intelligent driving systems. Vigorously advocating for safe driving principles in the era of "human-machine co driving", promoting the deepening and implementation of intelligent traffic safety standards, and accelerating the formation of a new trend of civilized driving that meets the requirements of the development of intelligent connected vehicles.
Accelerate the cultivation of intelligent automotive composite talents and solve the talent gap in the industry
The global trend of electrification, intelligence, and networking of automobiles is accelerating the reshaping of the industrial landscape. Currently, industry competition has shifted from single point technology competition to ecological collaboration capability competition, and talent has become a key support for core competitiveness. However, talent supply is currently facing severe challenges. According to relevant data, the shortage of composite talents for intelligent connected new energy vehicles in China has reached one million.
Lei Jun expressed in the proposal that he hopes to accelerate the cultivation of intelligent networked new energy vehicle composite talents with the forefront demand of the automotive industry as the core. The first step is to officially include "intelligent electric vehicles" in the national first level discipline catalog and reconstruct the knowledge system. Secondly, in terms of talent cultivation, we should be guided by the actual needs of the industry, promote the "dual mentor" and "practical" training models, and deepen the integration of industry and education. Finally, it is necessary to refine and improve supporting policies, strengthen policy guidance, and establish a new mechanism for collaborative education in the automotive industry.
Support the development of science and technology public welfare, and assist in the construction of a strong science and technology country
Technological innovation has the characteristics of long investment cycle and high risk of achievement transformation. It is difficult for fiscal funds to cover all cutting-edge topics, and there is an urgent need for scientific and technological public welfare to fill the gap. In recent years, some public welfare foundations have begun to establish special research funds to support basic research and the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. However, there is still room for optimization in supporting technology-based public welfare foundations in the current Regulations on Foundation Management and supporting policies.
In order to support the development of science and technology public welfare and assist in the construction of a strong science and technology country, Lei Jun suggests creating a better institutional environment for public welfare foundations to support scientific and technological innovation, clearly encouraging public welfare foundations to support public welfare goals such as basic research, cutting-edge technology exploration, and scientific research talent cultivation, and simplifying the process of filing science and technology awards. Further support the comprehensive integration of public welfare foundations into the national innovation system, encourage public welfare foundations to fund national and local government natural science funds, support public welfare foundations to participate in the evaluation and acceptance of scientific and technological achievements of natural science funds, and promote the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation. At the same time, incorporating the behavior of enterprises and individuals supporting technology public welfare into innovation evaluation, improving and optimizing the innovation evaluation system, and driving more social forces to support technological innovation.
