ABSTRACT

Amid evolving global trade dynamics, China is transitioning from cost-based advantages to embracing technological innovations such as artificial intelligence (AI), crucial for addressing global labor and value chain constraints. The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) emerges as a key player, integrating ports and towns into the Bay Area Economy. With its strategic global economic role, the GBA’s manufacturing sector is vital to China’s high-quality growth strategy. This study examines AI’s impact on the GBA’s manufacturing industry, enhancing cost efficiency, resource management, and research and development. It explores AI’s development and applications, emphasizing the GBA’s shift to a service-oriented economy through collaborative frameworks and industrial clusters. The GBA’s AI integration boosts regional and global competitiveness, promoting sustained economic growth through cross-industry collaboration and innovation in intelligent manufacturing.
