The artificial intelligence race between the US and China is entering its most intense phase, with the goal of gaining global technological leadership in the new era. This competition is taking place on all fronts, from laboratories and universities to large technology corporations with investments reaching trillions of dollars.
While the US is considered a leader in the "brain" of AI with systems like ChatGPT, China excels in the hardware with robots, drones, and real-world applications. The explosion of ChatGPT since 2022 has demonstrated the power of AI in changing how people work, learn, and create content.
However, China quickly responded with products like DeepSeek, demonstrating its ability to develop AI at low cost and incredible speed. Beyond software, China leads the world in the production and deployment of robots, from industry to everyday life, especially in the context of a rapidly aging population. Nevertheless, experts believe that the AI "brain" remains the decisive factor, accounting for the majority of a robotic system's value and representing an advantage that the US currently holds.
With both superpowers accelerating investment and innovation, the AI race is not just a technological story, but a power struggle shaping the future of the world. Readers are invited to watch the following video : Warning about scams using AI to steal Zalo and Facebook accounts.
