| |
| − | </b><br>The "oracle of AI" Kai Fu Lee says the data the Chinese government has collected on its citizens is "too large and too raw" to be used for AI.

| − | <b>Who is winning the artificial intelligence race?
| |
| − | </b><br>In a recent talk at Stanford, Kai-Fu Lee says China has taken the lead. Lee is a venture capitalist and author of “AI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley and the New World Order.” Who’s winning the worldwide competition to develop and exploit artificial intelligence? Not the U.S., says Kai-Fu Lee, a venture capitalist and author of AI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley and the New World Order. Although researchers and tech companies in the U.S. hold the lion’s share of AI patents and are responsible for key breakthroughs in the field, the game has changed, and China is taking the lead. “We are now in the implementation phase. It’s a question of who can build the fastest,” Lee said during a recent talk at the AI Salon series presented by the Stanford Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) Initiative and the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Lab (SAIL). Building the fastest doesn’t necessarily require the top tier of researchers. “For most applications, you don’t really need super AI experts. Young AI engineers will suffice,” he said. And China has them. Indeed, the last really significant breakthrough in AI – deep learning – was nine years ago, Lee said. “Without big breakthroughs, it is hard for the U.S to maintain its lead because AI technologies are reasonably well understood,” he said. Machine learning and artificial intelligence rely on data – lots of data – to function. And that’s where China has its biggest advantage. Not only does China have a huge population, its residents lead by far the United States in the use of mobile applications and payments. Every click, every sale, generates data. “If data is the new oil, China is the new OPEC,” Lee said. What’s more, the business environment in China is friendlier to AI companies, with more government support and less regulation than in the U.S. China’s advances in AI haven’t gone unnoticed by investors. Last year, 48 percent of the venture capital money directed to AI went to China, compared with 38 percent invested in U.S. ventures, Lee said. There are, of course, challenges posed by AI, not the least of which is the threat of job losses, a point made by Lee and two other speakers at the Salon: Susan Athey, a professor of economics at Stanford Graduate School of Business, and Erik Brynjolfsson, director of the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy. Even so, the stakes in the AI race are extremely high. Over the next 11 years, AI and related technologies will account for some $11 trillion in economic activity, a sum larger than the combined economies of China and India, Lee said.

| − | <b>Shaping the Future of Artificial Intelligence in China
| |
| − | </b><br>Between 2010 and 2015, artificial intelligence-related patent applications in China grew to over 8,000 submissions, up 190% from the previous five years. What is the role and responsibility of Chinese businesses to accelerate the technology’s potential while mitigating potential negative impacts for the world? Dimensions to be addressed: - New collaboration and partnership models for AI research and development - Public awareness of AI and tackling issues of public trust - (Un)blocking data flows throughout industry supply chains Speakers: - Dai Wenyuan, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, 4th Paradigm Data & Technology Co., People's Republic of China. - Huang Dinglong, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Malong Technologies, People's Republic of China.

| − | <b>AI in China
| |
| − | </b><br>The Chinese state run news agency Xinhua recently revealed the first Artificial Intelligence news anchor. They're now able to generate video of a newscaster using a model trained on real newscaster data and use it to disseminate information 24/7. When I saw this, I knew it was time to start studying China's role in the AI revolution in-depth. In this video, I'll cover China's power structure, generative adversarial networks, its startup scene, Confucianism, the social credit scoring system, algorithmic policing, surveillance, [[privacy]], autonomous weapons, and convolutional neural networks. A lot of different topics to cover, but I hope this video provides a coherent narrative around the use of AI in China and how it plays into the global AI community. Enjoy!
