China wants chips, US needs power: divergent AI growth paths emerge amid bubble concerns
AI Summary
A recent report by China International Capital Corp (CICC) highlights divergent AI development paths in China and the US. China's government-led approach prioritizes investment in underlying technologies like advanced semiconductors to overcome chip shortages. In contrast, the US, driven by private sector investment, focuses on building data centers and energy infrastructure to meet the power demands of AI. This divergence stems from differences in funding sources and existing infrastructure gaps. US venture capital investment in AI significantly outpaced China's last year, with US Big Tech spending also exceeding that of Chinese tech giants. Overall, US AI investment from companies and the government has surpassed China's in recent years.
