Is China really leading in AI? in what way that other countries is behind China
- neom 5y agoI don't know if it's a positive or a negative, but China has been focused in a very organized way on this subject for quite some time now - in a manner that other nations are just starting to do. China has also been able to, coordinately, use it's massive population as a R&D bed for training and the like.
- MangoCoffee 5y agofrom what i have read so far, Chinese's facial recognition is really good and probably is leading in this area.
- kube-system 5y agoThe descriptions of the biometric technology I've heard that is deployed in Xinjiang truly sounds like a science fiction. Voice/facial/gait/etc all deployed at huge scale in production, with gigantic datasets collected under questionable conditions. I don't have any links but there are some good NPR podcasts about the subject.
- stickfigure 5y agoHow is their self-driving car effort going? It seems like a very rough but reasonable proxy for AI development in the context of war machines. Facial recognition seems more useful for controlling a civilian population at home.
- tracyhenry 5y agoOne thing that no one can compete with is the amount of data available.
- kanche 5y agoLooking at CVPR this year, China has the most number of authors [0]. Significant portion of the US and EU authors are probably Chinese students as well. I think they are doing quite well atleast in the front of training researchers. source: [1] [0] https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E4bZC0mX0AY2X_L?format=png&name=large https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E4bZC0mX0AY2X_L?format=png&name=...
