主题内容:
Some observers argue that China can win the global AI race because it has a larger data set than any other country. China thus could forge ahead in mass markets for lower-cost AI applications. This could be achieved by using existing algorithms and by purchasing leading-edge AI chips from global semiconductor industry leaders.
This lecture will present a very different picture. Dr. Ernst will explore critical challenges in semiconductors and data governance that China is facing in its attempt to forge ahead in AI. AI developers and users in China need secure access to increasing computing power at lower cost. However, access to global AI chip markets is under threat. At the same time, data quality needs to be improved through standardization and enhanced data governance.This requires continuous research and technology development across the AI value chain. In short, AI research and implementation cannot be separated – both need to proceed in lock-step. Only then can China capture the potentially huge gains from AI.
