Reference News Network, October 10 report. According to the U.S. Consumer News and Business Channel website on October 8, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said on October 8 that the United States is "not far ahead of China" in the artificial intelligence race, and needs a "fine strategy" to maintain its advantage.
Huang remained cautious when talking about the issue. He said that although the U.S. models are still more advanced, China is "far ahead" in open-source models.
He said, "China is far ahead of us in energy. We have a significant advantage in chips. They are comparable to us in infrastructure, and they are on par with us in artificial intelligence models."
NVIDIA announced in September plans to invest $10 billion in the Open AI Research Center to build artificial intelligence data centers. Such large-scale investment in computing power requires a lot of energy, and China's energy production capacity far exceeds that of the United States.
Huang said, "Don't forget, this country isn't without chips. They have Huawei. They also have very mature and highly entrepreneurial startups building artificial intelligence chips."
Although the United States may be leading in advanced chip design, including NVIDIA's Blackwell processor, Chinese tech giants are intensifying their efforts in this area.
Huang also pointed out that the development of applications in China is astonishing, and the country is "very fast in adopting new technologies."
According to the plan of the relevant Chinese authorities, the country aims to make artificial intelligence widely integrated into key areas by 2027, with the penetration rate of next-generation smart terminals and intelligent agents exceeding 70%.
Huang said he hopes American companies can quickly adopt artificial intelligence applications, because ultimately this industrial revolution needs to win in the application level of artificial intelligence.
He said, "The Chinese market is huge, with over 1 billion users. Therefore, if your ultimate goal is to have the United States win the artificial intelligence competition, you cannot easily give up this market."
Huang mentioned that China has 50% of the world's artificial intelligence researchers and about 30% of the technology market.
As people's confidence in the development of chips and artificial intelligence continues to grow, the Chinese stock market has seen a strong rise. In the past year, the stock prices of related technology companies have soared.
Huang said, "We are actually limiting U.S. technology within the United States, and giving the rest of the world to other countries to compete."
He believes that to win the global artificial intelligence developers and markets, the U.S. should develop its technology system, and warned that if U.S. technology does not spread and propagate globally, the U.S. will fall behind.
This CEO cited comments from White House AI advisor David Sacks on the tech landscape in five years.
He said, "If the U.S. technology system occupies 80% of the global market, we gain an advantage in the artificial intelligence race. If the U.S. only occupies 20% of the global market, then we lose the competition." (Translated by Wang Diqing)
