The global artificial intelligence (AI) race remains one of the most hotly contested areas of international competition. Few people today bet on the ultimate winner, but current trends indicate that there are three possible scenarios to consider.
In the first scenario, the world of AI is dominated by the United States and China. Although the United States still has the technological advantage, China is rapidly closing in and competing with the United States for leadership in many key aspects of AI capabilities.
In contrast, the United States relies on a strong coalition of technology giants, venture capital, and government support. But there are growing concerns about potential flaws in the US model, including the bubble-like appearance of the tech boom and the risks inherent in using complex debt mechanisms to finance data center expansion.
A second scenario that could emerge amidst the possibility of an AI bubble bursting is the rise of a trilateral AI world, where the European Union gains greater influence with an ethics-driven approach to AI development.
