Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI), central to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is key to global competition. For China, integrating AI with manufacturing is vital to overcoming "low-end lock-in" and boosting its global value chain (GVC) position. This study analyzes data from 37 countries (2008-2021), showing AI enhances China's GVC standing via productivity and innovation. It recommends leveraging AI leadership, adopting tailored strategies, building advanced manufacturing clusters, and promoting innovation to drive GVC advancement.
