Artificial Intelligence for All - Utpal Chakraborty
CHAPTER 1
Super Powers of AI – The Leaders and the Contenders
Russian President, Vladimir Putin, stated that AI is the future and whoever becomes a leader in AI will become the ruler of the world. Chinese President, Xi Jinping, declared that China wants to be the world leader in AI by 2030 . The US White House Administration voiced that America has been the global leader in AI, and the Trump administration will ensure our great nation remains the global leader in AI . Similarly, National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence, India, published by NITI Aayog, indicates its vision as AI-for-All in India . These statements clearly indicate that the race for the supremacy in the field of Artificial Intelligence has already taken a great momentum, and AI has managed to influence even mainstream politics and the world leaders in a great way.
On the other hand, many experts across the globe are already in a big hurry to proclaim which country will be the AI superpower and who is already ahead in the race. Some of them even persuasively claim themselves to be an AI superpower just by building a simulated bubble to attract the extra attention from the world and some investors. Keeping aside all those hidden agendas, and before even jumping to some conclusion, we should first consider the prerequisites to be a mere contender in this race. Because it’s not going to be a wholesome competition, especially when we have contenders who will not shy away from attempting any possible means, whether ethical or unethical, to be ahead of the competition. A few countries are already leading in this race; and, at the same time, there are strong contenders who have huge potential to be in the list of leaders in the near future.
Before taking this debate further, we also need to define the parameters to measure the supremacy and the factors influencing the same. Is it how much dollars are generated in a country by utilizing AI or what are all the core problems that are solved for humanity by uplifting the quality of life of the citizens of a nation? Also, the priorities to be addressed are country and region specific.
For example, predicting what movie or what ad a user will like using AI may not be something so compelling when it comes to a developing country like India; rather, if AI can address some of the core areas like healthcare and medicine, agriculture, food, water, education, urbanization, and so on, it will be much more compelling. The success of AI, in this case, will be measured in much higher terms. To understand this, let’s take a step back and discuss the factors that can essentially fuel contenders to become leaders.
Technically, there are five major prerequisites that are essential for an AI ecosystem to flourish in a country, but there could be many others that can largely contribute to its advancement and implementation.
AI Research
AI is essentially an evolving field, and many of the AI technologies are maturing and getting better off with research and evolution, which is happening in terms of a better approach to tackle some of its technical limitations. There may not have been another groundbreaking breakthrough after Deep Learning (DL) in the last couple of years, but there have been many improvements—there were small and medium innovations in terms of how deep learning and other AI technologies can be applied effectively in many different areas; all those are essentially due to continuous researches happening in the field. So, an ecosystem embracing AI research is very essential for a country to progress in the field of AI, whether such researches are to be carried out in academia, within R&D cells of AI companies, or in collaboration with the government.
Usable Data
Usable data comes from the real-world physical services that have been digitized so far. This means that researchers have to use the many physical services that have been digitized in the country and the data from those services that has been collected, stored, and made available for AI companies, to feed and enrich their AI models.
Wealth of AI Engineers and Data Scientists
For traditional software engineers to become AI affluent, special skills are needed in the areas of machine learning, deep learning, NLP, and so on. AI researchers coming from a data science background need even higher skills and background to carry out research in the different areas of AI. An adequate pool of such AI engineers and AI researchers is essential for AI to grow in a country. The more your tech colleges and universities produce these skilled resources, the more your chances to be a leader in the race.
Support from Government and Awareness Among Citizens
The government of a country plays a major role in democratizing a rising technology like AI. Backing from the government and their support is crucial, whether it be to build infrastructure for AI, frame policies that support AI to grow, encourage enterprises in the adoption of AI, or whatever other form it could be.
Funding and VC Ecosystem
Proper funding and a mature Venture Capitalist (VC) ecosystem is vital for AI startups and other AI initiatives to grow in a country. Sometimes, it’s not just funding the AI startups, but essentially guiding them through their journey, and believing in and being a part of their vision is very important, which can only be expected from a mature VC ecosystem. Despite having all other AI ingredients, most of the developing countries—like India and its young entrepreneurs and startups—are essentially struggling in this particular space.
I will try to list down a few of the leaders and some of the strong contenders here; however, the order in which the contenders have been listed in this article, and the length of the text written for each, has no significance on their capabilities and position in the race.
USA
Undoubtedly, the U.S.A is ahead in the race, both in terms of AI research and some of the large-scale AI implementations. US has got most of the best AI researchers of the world—most of the tech and AI giants are based there. Some of the AI applications used globally are again US products. US has huge data available for AI to flourish as most of the physical services there are already digitized. US has the best universities and talents, best AI labs, and the best funding ecosystem so far. But, there is a twist in the story— unlike other technologies, in the case of AI, a few countries are not far behind US; in fact, there is a possibility US may be left behind in the future.
Canada
Canada is well ahead in AI research—it has got the finest AI researchers and universities. Canadian universities produce some of the best AI researchers every year. Also, talented professionals from all over the world land there to research on different areas of AI and translate their ideas into implementable solutions. Unfortunately, Canadian talents are very academic and research-oriented, and there is an actual shortage of real entrepreneurs who can take AI beyond the classes and the labs and onto the road. This is probably the reason that, despite having most of the talented AI professionals in the world, they still have not been able to produce best AI products or AI companies. It seems that the Canadian government has now realized this fact and is currently focusing on AI implementation and exploring how to generate revenue out of it. Also, recent imposition of immigration restrictions in US have essentially become a blessing for Canada and a few other AI contenders to attract more and more talents from across the globe.
China
China has emerged itself from a copycat to a unique form of inimitable entrepreneurism. The word copycat may sound a bit offensive, but trust me, the word in this particular context of the article has a great significance, which we will discuss in the next few paragraphs. Personally, I have got a great regard for China and Chinese entrepreneurs—it is especially worth noting how it has incredibly transformed itself in the past few decades. We all have a great lesson to learn from them. Essentially, they have gorgeously demonstrated the fact that you can begin with as a copycat and with hard work and dedication, you can become an innovator. It is not true that you need a great, out-of-the-box, unique innovative concept or a product to be a successful entrepreneur, which is what many of our young Indian entrepreneurs sometimes wrongly assume. You can essentially transform your ordinary concept into a unique innovative product by adding factors like operational excellence, better usability taking into consideration your user needs; and the same can come out as a great product—that’s what happened for many of the Chinese successful products you see today.
Two decades ago, China started with what we call a straight copycat and built a replica of Google, Amazon, Facebook, WhatsApp, and so on. It was the Chinese version of such products that suited the Chinese market and users. Soon, they realized that if they can provide the best of the breed, world-class services to their users and customers with an addition of regional flavor on top of it, it works much better than a generic global product. That’s probably one element of the secret recipe of China’s unique form of
