White Paper on AI Hardware Going Global Talent in 2025

This document mainly focuses on the talent situation in the overseas expansion of AI hardware. In plain terms, the main content is as follows:

First, it introduces the basic situation of AI hardware, including its definition, which refers to hardware devices integrated with artificial intelligence technologies and capable of executing machine learning algorithms, applied in fields such as robotics and smart home; it also describes the development path of AI hardware from traditional hardware to smart hardware and then to AI hardware, as well as the industry’s development process, from the budding stage to the initiation stage and now to the current rapid development stage. It also mentions relevant support policies and driving factors for development, such as the explosion of computing power demand, technological upgrades, policy support, and the expansion of market application scenarios.

Next, it analyzes the technical overview of AI hardware, covering technologies such as chips, sensors, storage, heat dissipation, and communication, as well as the current state of technological development, challenges faced (such as bottlenecks in computing power and energy efficiency, lack of unified standards, etc.), and future trends (such as hardware performance improvement, edge computing, and localized deployment).

Then, it explains the overseas expansion situation of the AI hardware industry, including the advantages of going global, such as a well-developed supply chain and strong capability in optimizing application experience; market performance, with some products having considerable market share and strong demand in specific fields; the current status of overseas expansion, involving multi-channel layout and diversified markets; as well as the financing situation of overseas companies, phenomenal products, and the development trends and challenges faced in going global, such as cultural and language differences, data privacy issues, etc.

Afterwards, it introduces the industry’s supply chain, from upstream basic software and hardware, to midstream complete product manufacturing, and downstream application fields, and also analyzes key enterprises in each segment.

Then, it explains the market structure of the industry, including the growth of market size, product structure (mainly smart home devices), product innovation map, characteristics of consumer-grade AI hardware, and market trends.

Finally, it focuses on the talent overview in the AI hardware field, including talent distribution, recruitment trends (positions, regions, processes, etc.), hot job trends, salary situation, as well as the characteristics, trends, and outlook of talent demand and supply. It also introduces the situation of representative companies such as iFlytek, Longcheer Technology, Huaqin Technology, and Goertek.
