Alibaba's handbook names four open challenges for AI-native R&D
Overview
Alibaba's official handbook on AI Native R&D identifies four unresolved challenges: infrastructure engineering complexity, enterprise knowledge assets that are not yet agent-friendly, organizational design, and the pace of AI iteration.
A single report, a post by author meng shao (@shao__meng), summarizes these points and adds its own argument: agent infrastructure must suit the non-deterministic way agents operate, and enterprise knowledge needs top-down structuring and governance.
The author also states that organizational resistance in large companies makes AI adoption harder than it is in startups. This account rests on the author's summary of the handbook; the report does not include the handbook text itself or any measured results.
