AI Race: Countries in the Race
Which countries are investing in AI the most? What are their main institutions?
AI, the ultimate technology any nation can develop today, is spreading worldwide and shaping many industries. A number of countries entered the race of AI with strategic plans ahead and future projects on schedule, yet other nations are delayed due to a lack of capabilities, resources and infrastructure. As of today, AI is being utilized across various sectors, and nations are competing in this field for global dominance.
2 Reasons why each nation is obliged to invest in AI?
Defintely to build and renovate infrastructure and systems. No country will provide a valuable asset or weapon to another nation. AI services that are made public today on the internet, differ from other solutions that governments implemenet for their own future goals and objectives. AI is currently being deployed in medical systems, education systems, military operations and software development. Industries will need at some point, an accelarator to speed up production, manufacturing and strengthen their processes, and since technology is embedded in all systems across a nation, AI is the one technology that will contribute to this acceleration. The key elements that AI would provide, is cost reduction, time saving, effeciency, scalability & customer experince.
Speed is key today.
A nation will not develop - for example - an AI solution for another with the aim to promote its own education system, provide support to its own local language or train it with its own LLM (Large Language Models). USA will not promote Japanese LLM, or Arabic LLM, the same vice versa. The key for any AI system is speed. Speed at analyzing large data sets and providing final conclusions or answers. Education is the core of any nation, which explains why Nations must respond and act to develop their own AI systems, and invest in them.
