As with other types of patent applications, WIPO officials acknowledge that the quantity of GenAI patents doesn't indicate quality. It's hard to tell so early in the technology which patents will have market value or be transformative for society.

All they do is submit patents because their pay or tenure depends on it

But they don't do anything with it. They just submit, submit, submit. It's just ink on paper

(And it's not like China respects patents anyways. Chinese people are not known for their knockoffs for nothing.)

The U.S. and China are often seen as rivals in the development of artificial intelligence, but by some measures U.S. tech companies are taking the lead in making the world’s most cutting-edge AI systems.

Sixty-one notable machine-learning models emerged from U.S.-based institutions in 2023, outpacing the European Union’s 21 and China’s 15, according to the annual AI Index from Stanford University’s Institute for Human-centered Artificial Intelligence. Of EU countries, France had the most, with eight.

By another measure, the U.S. also has the most so-called AI foundation models — such as OpenAI’s GPT-4, Anthropic’s Claude 3, Gemini and Meta’s Llama, which are huge, versatile and trained on massive datasets.

These are the ones that are actually working out in the real world

As they say in sports, the game is played on the pitch, not on paper

If you just look at the domination of the Chinese in the field of mathematics, AI domination will come as no surprise. The foundation of AI is mathematics

And it is one of almost all technological fields in which China already surpasses the US and Europe..

By stealing intellectual properties.

The world is changing and we have to get used to the idea that this is the beginning of a new world order with multilateralism and equality for all countries..

This is China's century..

To a point.

China is winning the future..

Not really

The future belongs to China and those who want to be its friends..

At China’s demands? Hardly.

China is winning the future of AI, just like the Huawei corporation, she never dies, she just grow stronger than ever, the American sanctions were useless !

If you just look at the domination of the Chinese in the field of mathematics

On what metric are you basing this Chinese "domination" exactly? If you're talking about academics, the best universities appear to be in the US and Europe.

AI domination will come as no surprise.

China will not dominate AI as all its models must adhere to Xi Jinping Thought. This simple fact detaches them from the real world and immediately destroys their value.

Americans prefer to be humanities majors who read novels and use big words to talk about the world

A laughable generalization.

The U.S. and China are often seen as rivals in the development of artificial intelligence, but by some measures U.S. tech companies are taking the lead in making the world’s most cutting-edge AI systems.

China graduates way more engineers than the U.S. More STEM graduates. The disparity is like 1 to 7. And a lot of the 1 are Asians.

Americans prefer to be humanities majors who read novels and use big words to talk about the world: "it's the social contract and internationalism in the declaration of independence that makes us who we are and so Putin will not stand a chance against...." Meanwhile the Japanese in the group who has no idea, nods and pretends he knows what is being said and takes another sip of beer.

Over the decade starting in 2014, over 38,200 GenAI inventions came from China. That's six times more than from the United States, which had nearly 6,300. They were trailed by South Korea with 4,155, Japan with more than 3,400 and India with 1,350.

Those inventions may have come from China, but every single one of them were stolen says the bright green unripe grape eating fox.
