The Influence of Artificial Intelligence on the High-quality Development of Three Eastern Urban Agglomerations

Abstract

From five dimensions of the new development concept, a comprehensive index of high-quality development is constructed, and the relevant indicators are weighted by entropy method to obtain a high-quality development index. Based on the panel data of 63 prefecture-level cities in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta from 2011 to 2018, the influence of artificial intelligence on high-quality development is analyzed. The empirical results show that artificial intelligence has significantly improved the high-quality development level of the three major urban agglomerations; From the perspective of intermediary effect, artificial intelligence can improve high-quality development by increasing residents' willingness to consume; From the threshold effect, we can see that the marginal effect of artificial intelligence on high-quality development is "N"-shaped nonlinear. On this basis, this paper puts forward some policy suggestions, such as increasing the investment in artificial intelligence research and development, formulating the development policy of artificial intelligence industry according to local conditions, and paying attention to personnel training in the field of artificial intelligence.
