Hong Kong: Chinese President Xi Jinping has promised “autonomy and self-reinforcement” to develop AI in China, reported on Saturday April 26, April 26, when the country features with the United States for artificial intelligence supremacy, a key strategic domain.
Speaking during a study session of the Politburo meeting on Friday, XI said that China should take advantage of its “new whole national system” to advance the development of AI.
“We have to recognize gaps and redouble our efforts to advance technological innovation, industrial development and AI food applications,” said Xinhua's official press agency.
XI noted that political support would be provided in fields such as government supply, intellectual property rights, research and talent culture.
Some experts say that China has reduced the AI development gap with the United States in the past year. THE Chinese AI startup Deepseek Attracted global attention when he launched a model of reasoning in AI in January which, according to him, was formed with less advanced fleas and was cheaper to develop than its Western rivals. China has also been pierced in infrastructure software engineering.
The DEEPSEEK announcement challenged the hypothesis that US sanctions retains the Chinese AI sector in the midst of a fierce geopolitical technological rivalry, and that China delayed the United States after the revolutionary launch of the OPENAI chatgpt in late 2022.
“We must continue to strengthen basic research, concentrate our efforts to master basic technologies such as high -end fleas and basic software, and create basic software and independent, controllable and collaborative hardware system, said XI.
He added that regulations and AI laws should be accelerated to build a “risk warning system and emergency intervention, to ensure that artificial intelligence is safe, reliable and controllable”.
XI said last year that AI should not be a “rich country and the rich”, while calling for more international governance and AI cooperation.
