The development of artificial intelligence technology will promote the intelligent development of the field of instrumentation and measurement. Establishing a measurement and control technology and instrumentation major with intelligent features is an effective approach to cultivate high-quality, interdisciplinary application-oriented talents in "AI+" era. In order to adapt to the comprehensive development of strategic emerging industries such as the new generation of information technology, artificial intelligence, and high-end equipment, the cultivation of talents in Measurement and Control Technology and Instrumentation needs to take measures such as adding AI-related courses, promoting the construction of AI-empowered measurement and control professional disciplines, optimizing the curriculum system of intelligent instruments, and strengthening the construction of intelligent training bases. These efforts aim to promote the development of new industrialization, enhance independent innovation capabilities, and stimulate innovation vitality. This paper discusses the necessity of cultivating professionals specialized in Measurement and Control Technology and Instrumentation with characteristics of artificial intelligence from the perspectives of discipline construction, curriculum adjustment, and training bases, thereby promoting the application and development of artificial intelligence technology in this field.
