COMPARING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DEVELOPMENTS OF SUPERPOWERS: CHINA AND THE US

The paper deals with the progress in various aspects of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in US and China. There is concern about high-level machine intelligence and super-intelligent AI coming up in a few decades, bringing with it significant risks for humanity. In other quarters, these issues are ignored or considered science fiction. High level machine intelligence will be developed around 2040-2050, rising to a nine in ten chance by 2075. Experts expect that systems will move on to super-intelligence in less than 30 years thereafter. They estimate the chance is about one in three that this development turns out to be ‘bad’ or ‘extremely bad’ for humanity
