A new study by Nikkei shows valid reasons why China is currently outperforming the USA in artificial intelligence due to the quality and quantity of research that is currently being released from China.
This shouldn’t come as any surprise to anyone who follows the field of artificial intelligence in terms of application and impact. China has been investing heavily in the field of both the public and private sectors.
In the public sphere companies such as Tencent Holdings, Alibaba Group Holdings, and Huawei Technologies are some of the leading companies that are having an impact in the space.
These areas of research are then spun off into products and services. Baidu for example has been experiencing huge success with their car fleets which are deeply reliant on artificial intelligent systems.
This report comes at a time when the relationship between Washington and China has soured. There is basically a war going on from a trading and technological standpoint.
The United States has been trying really hard to deter China’s technological progress but it will take a lot more to stop them by blocking technological trade deals and moving various core suppliers and engineers from the country.
Regardless, the United States still has the technological base and some of the largest technological countries in the world who themselves are investing heavily in the field and the competition between various fractions in the technological community will continue.
