Digital Science Finds That China Leads the World in AI
Digital Science reports that “China is outstripping the rest of the world in artificial intelligence research at a time when AI is becoming a ‘strategic asset’ akin to energy or military capability,” as discovered in a new report, “DeepSeek and the New Geopolitics of AI: China’s Ascent to Research Pre-Eminence in AI.” It is based on data from Dimensions. Key findings include: - China has become the pre-eminent world power in AI research, leading not only by research volume, but also by citation attention, and influence, rapidly increasing its lead on the rest of the world over the past seven years.
- Despite global tensions, China has become the top collaborator for the US, UK, and EU in AI research, while needing less reciprocal collaboration than any of them.
- China’s AI talent pool dwarfs its rivals—with 30,000 active AI researchers and a massive student and postdoctoral population.
