... neural network technology: computers can now beat any living person at
the most complex game
invented by humankind, as well as
imitate human voices
and
faces
(both real and
non-existent
) in a deceptively realistic manner. Is this a victory for artificial intelligence over human intelligence? And if not, what else do researchers and developers need to achieve to make the winners in the AI race the "
kings of the world
?”

AI Nationalism and AI Nationalization Are ahead
Over the last 60 years,
artificial intelligence
(AI) has been the subject of much discussion among researchers representing different ...
... Challenges for Russia
Today, Russia has a rare window of opportunity to take part in the development of a new economy on more or less on an equal footing and stake its claim to certain sectors of the rapidly growing new markets while the leaders in the AI race have not yet pulled too far ahead.
RIAC Working Paper “International and Social Impacts of Artificial Intelligence Technologies”
Of course, the United States has a significant lead here, but this does not mean that it is destined to win this new race. A wonderful book published recently [

... future. One will be based on logic, smart enterprises and human merit while the other may morph into an Orwellian control tool. Even former Google CEO Eric Schmidt has foreseen a
bifurcation of the Internet
by 2028 and China’s eventual triumph in the AI race by
2030
.
In the meantime, the US seems more interested in deflecting the smart questions of today than in building the smart factories of tomorrow. Nothing embodies this better than the recent attempt by MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) and the Qatar Computing Research Institute (QCRI) to create an
AI-based filter
to “stamp out fake-news outlets before the stories spread too widely.”
