China is building its own AI at a rapid pace

Chinese tech giants are rapidly developing their own AI models and trying to catch up with their US counterparts like OpenAI. The Chinese government has approved over 40 AI models in the last six months, including 14 Large Language Models (LLMs) in just the past week. Baidu, often referred to as "China's Google," is leading the charge with its AI chatbot Ernie Bot, which has over 100 million users and is considered a competitor to OpenAI's GPT-4 model. However, Chinese companies face both technological and political challenges, as AI models must adhere to strict government regulations and avoid sensitive topics. Additionally, geopolitical tensions, such as restrictions on semiconductor sales, may hinder China's progress in becoming an AI superpower.
