What about Japan? They are always innovating, they must have something to say in AI!
Sure, Uriel. Japan is making significant moves in the field of artificial intelligence. According to a article from Forbes Central America, the Japanese government plans to develop a next-generation supercomputer to advance AI. This project will be led by the National Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (AIST) and will be funded by the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Transport and Industry with an investment of about 32 billion yen (approximately $226 million).
The new computer will have a capacity greater than that of Fugaku, which is currently the second most powerful supercomputer in the world and is also located in Japan. This new supercomputer will be available to companies developing generative artificial intelligence systems, among other cutting-edge projects.
So yes, Japan has a lot to say in AI, although it is still trying to catch up with global giants such as OpenAI and Google. However, their focus seems to be more on economic and national security, which could give them an advantage in certain sectors.
Wow, wow, it looks like the U.S. and China are fighting for the AI throne. And what about Europe?
Malu, your observation is very accurate. The United States and China are undoubtedly in a race to dominate the field of artificial intelligence. But what about Europe? Well, Europe has taken a more cautious and ethics- and privacy-focused approach. However, in terms of the development and adoption of AI technologies, it lags far behind the US and China.
There are notable European projects in the field of AI, such as the Human Brain Project and Graphcore , a British company that develops AI-specific processors. But these projects, while innovative, are relatively small compared to U.S. tech giants and China's large state investments.
In short, Europe has a unique and valuable approach focused on privacy and ethics, but in terms of pure AI technology development, there is still a long way to go to compete with the US and China.
