History

Historical Context

In the late 2010s, China's focus on artificial intelligence intensified, driven by the 2016 AlphaGo match and the government's 2017 AI Development Plan, which aimed for global leadership by 2030. Alibaba's 2023 restructuring under the Alibaba Token Hub reflects this trend, enhancing AI capabilities similar to IBM's Watson, which transformed business processes across 30 industries since 2011.
