In the artificial intelligence war, China wants to surpass the US and China's competition trump card is the chip, China's strength is not bad, Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent and other giants invested heavily in the AI ​​field, and more AI companies are on the rise. Artificial intelligence is the future, and it is true for the entire human race. China plans to fight a long-term battle.
On November 28th, the United States had an enviable lead in bringing artificial intelligence technology out of the lab and into practical applications. Companies that make this US advantage are companies like Alphabet, Facebook and Apple.
But the Chinese government and technology elite plan to surpass the United States in the field of artificial intelligence in 2030.
In the field of artificial intelligence, China has many advantages. Giants such as Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent not only invest heavily in artificial intelligence research, but also recruit top talents around the world.
China has a large population and will have a large amount of data for training artificial intelligence systems. Therefore, it is reasonable to think that China will make breakthroughs in developing computer algorithms.
But China also has a big weakness: it is lagging behind the US semiconductor industry in producing high-end chips. Chinese companies mainly purchase artificial intelligence chips from NVIDIA. Intel is also pushing into the field of artificial intelligence.
David Kanter, head of real-world Insights chip industry consulting services, said, "Most of the artificial intelligence chips are developed by US companies, and it will take a long time for China to catch up with the US in the field of artificial intelligence chips."
UBS predicts that the artificial intelligence chip market will grow from $6 billion in 2016 to $35 billion in 2021. But artificial intelligence is more than just chip sales.
Artificial intelligence technology will bring changes to the economy. Artificial intelligence has always been called the “winner-take-all†technology, meaning that the advantages of companies and countries that have the advantage will always have an advantage.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that countries that have taken the lead in the field of artificial intelligence will gain an advantage in global affairs. "Artificial intelligence is the future, not only for Russia, but for the entire human race. It has become a leader in the field of artificial intelligence. Will become the world's master."
Putin’s problem is that although its military electronics is first-class, Russia does not have high-end commercial chips.
All artificial intelligence software is inseparable from powerful computing power. One aspect of the artificial intelligence war is the development of artificial intelligence chips for data centers, autonomous vehicles, robots, smartphones, drones and other devices.
Gary Dickerson, chief executive of chip equipment maker Applied Materials, said in an interview that "the AI ​​architecture leader battle is the biggest battle we have ever encountered in this life. He said that the dedicated chip for artificial intelligence software. Coming soon."
Currently, the United States is at the forefront in creating artificial intelligence companies and commercial deployments. Fortune 500 companies are pushing artificial intelligence tools into the fields of finance, healthcare, energy, agriculture, and network security.
Companies such as Apple, Alphabet, Facebook, and Microsoft have made advances in using artificial intelligence technology for speech recognition, Internet search, and image classification. Amazon's artificial intelligence technology is used in cloud computing services and smart speakers.
China's rise in the field of artificial intelligenceChina plans to catch up with the United States in the field of artificial intelligence.
Chirag Dekate, a high-performance computing analyst at market research firm Gartner, said, "China plans to fight a long-term battle. The United States is pushing artificial intelligence innovation in software and hardware, in the early application of artificial intelligence. The United States is ahead of any other country and region. But China sees artificial intelligence competition as a marathon."
The Chinese government announced a three-step artificial intelligence development strategy in July this year, and plans to become the global leader in artificial intelligence in 2030.
Talent is the key to China's artificial intelligence strategy. Chinese research institutes have published artificial intelligence papers faster, and the number of patents in robotics and other fields is increasing rapidly. Chinese Internet companies have set up artificial intelligence research departments in Silicon Valley. Chinese companies such as Baidu also attracted the world's top artificial intelligence talents through high salaries.
China urgently needs to develop high-end artificial intelligence chips by 2030. Temasek's Vertex said in a report on China, "Computational power is one of the fundamental elements of artificial intelligence and is of strategic importance. The control of the core technology supply chain may strengthen China's ability to deploy artificial intelligence systems in the future."
Artificial Intelligence Strategy of American Chip ManufacturersJust a few years ago, artificial intelligence research projects also required hundreds of computers to be networked and run complex software. Market research firm CBI Insights said in the report that one of the keys to the popularity of artificial intelligence is a new wave of artificial intelligence chips.
NVIDIA has become an early leader in the field of artificial intelligence chips. NVIDIA's advantage is that its powerful "parallel processing capability" enables its PC graphics chip to run artificial intelligence software.
Baidu is a partner of NVIDIA in the field of autonomous vehicles. Nvidia said in September that Alibaba and Tencent will use their artificial intelligence chips in the data center.
Intel has also completed several acquisitions in the field of artificial intelligence. Intel said it is working with Facebook to develop artificial intelligence chips for cloud computing services.
In the United States, it is not just traditional semiconductor companies that develop artificial intelligence chips. Google's strategy is to integrate software and chip technology, and its TensorFlow data center software runs on its own "TPU" chip.
The Apple iPhone X is equipped with an A11 biomimetic chip using artificial intelligence technology to support face recognition technology. Analysts said that the A11 biochip is just the starting point for Apple to enter the field of artificial intelligence chips.
US government protects high-end chip technologyThe US government has been wary of protecting high-end chip technology.
In September this year, the Trump administration sued Chinese companies for the acquisition of LatTIce Semiconductor on the grounds of national security. LatTIce's programmable software technology can be used to develop artificial intelligence chips.
The Obama administration in 2015 ordered Intel, NVIDIA and AMD to ban high-end computer chips from China.
One year later, Chinese scientists launched the world's fastest supercomputer, Shenwei Taihu Lake. Some observers regard the light of Shenwei Taihu Lake as a signal that China is competitive in the field of artificial intelligence chips.
China invests heavily in artificial intelligenceChina is still far away from producing artificial intelligence chips for the mass market. An artificial intelligence chip startup called Cambrian Technology has attracted investment from Alibaba, Lenovo Capital and HKUST. Vertex is an investor in the startup Horizon Robot.
Huawei also has its own artificial intelligence project. While aggressively entering the field of artificial intelligence, China also plans to invest heavily in the semiconductor industry. According to estimates by the US government, China has invested 20 billion US dollars in a chip industry project, and the total investment may be as high as 150 billion US dollars.
China needs most high-end chips to still need to purchase from foreign suppliers. Intel, AMD and ARM are the dominant players in the field of microprocessor technology.
Goldman Sachs said in an artificial intelligence report released in September that "China's process of establishing a local semiconductor industry has been slow, and we expect that China's dependence on foreign countries in the chip field will decline over time."
Some media reports said that Google is interested in promoting its TensorFlow artificial intelligence software tools to Chinese technology companies, but it is not clear whether the negotiations between them involve Google's artificial intelligence chips.
According to CBI Insights, the venture capital investment from artificial intelligence chip startups is also exploding. While NVIDIA's graphics chips gained an early lead, artificial intelligence startups started from scratch to develop chips that could run artificial intelligence software, including Graphcore, KnuEdge and Cerebras Systems.
